Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 2243

"Honey, how do you feel right now?" Josh Batton asked with a panicked expression. "Are you sure you don't feel any pain at all now?"

He was afraid Annabeth Cates was only saying it to console him.

She nodded with a smile. "Yeah, don't worry."

Sighing in relief, he hastily brushed his tears away before peering at the doctor. "Doctor, my wife won't be feeling any pain anymore, or will it still hurt after a while?"

The doctor nodded. "She won't feel any further pain."

"Thank you," he breathed out, finally able to stop worrying.

"You're welcome. It's my job," the doctor told him before leaving some instructions to the nurse and left.

It took quite a while for the cervix to dilate, but it was more tolerable without the pain.

Josh, Sharon Lindt, and Xyla Quest fed her all her favorite food from chocolate, water, and some sweetened snacks she liked to boost her strength. She felt so moved when she saw them doing all these for her.

It felt great to have people taking care of her when she needed it the most.

Meanwhile,izens had begun discussing news of her delivery in excitement.

People claiming to be obstetric nurses in Municipal Hospital published on Weibo that Josh Batton was panicking and was even tearful when his wife experienced painful contractions.

They also mentioned that his mother and sister-in-law remained by her side throughout the entire ordeal, almost in tears as well.

Netizens became even more excited on Weibo after seeing these posts.

The topic of Annabeth's hospital stay and delivery continued to increase in popularity-

"Oh my god! I feel touched by Josh's reaction. I would've cried if I was Annabeth."

"He didn't even shed a tear when he

shedding tears for his wife. He really loves her a lot."

"Annabeth surely has no regrets left in this life. I'm sure she must've felt very touched at that moment."

"The Batton family is such a wonderful family. My heart aches for Annabeth. I hope she'll successfully deliver."

"I don't feel jealous at all about Josh treating that woman so well. In fact, I even feel touched."

"I hope the baby will be delivered successfully."

Xyla and the others in the ward remained unaware of all such comments on the inte.

Sometime later that night, Annabeth began to feel some changes, so she was then brought to the delivery room and placed on a delivery bed in preparation for her delivery

Wilson Batton, who had been silent all this while, had an even more solemn expression on his face.

Everyone was praying in their hearts that nothing would go wrong during the delivery.

In the delivery room, her doctor manually ruptured her amniotic sac while Josh clasped her hand tightly, half-kneeling by the bed.

The anesthetic lost its effect right then, causing her to feel intense pain in her abdomen once again.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

It was even worse than before.

Now, it felt as if someone was holding a giant hammer and repeatedly pounding her stomach with it.
