Right now, time was of the essence.

Stanley Batton needed to see Yaksha right away.

Meanwhile, Jeremy Quest was sorting through some newly bought baby clothes with Betty Starmount in the living room when he suddenly received a call from Sharon Lindt.

She told him what his daughter, Xyla Quest, was going through, leaving him dumbfounded upon hearing the news.

He collapsed on the couch, panting as his vision turned dark.

At the same time, Betty was equally shocked when she heard what Sharon said.

Did the demon fox do it?

It must be.

What else could have done such a thing in such a short amount of time?

Her hands trembled slightly by her side at the thought.

Seeing how sad Jeremy was made her hands tremble even more as she started to tear up.

"Honey, don't be like this. I believe they'll be able to find the children," Betty said in a comforting tone.

Jeremy inhaled deeply before patting himself on the chest gently. "Betty, I want to see Xyla at the hospital right now. Get the driver." Betty nodded.

Jeremy's vision suddenly turned dark, and he collapsed on the couch, making her panic.

Falling to her knees, she nudged him repeatedly in an attempt to wake him up. "Honey, what's wrong? What's wrong? Say something!" However, Jeremy didn't react at all.
