When the two of them stepped into the house, May Conner and Jeremy Quest were sitting on the sofa and enjoying their Chinese tea.The same gentle smile appeared on both their faces as soon as they noticed the lovebirds’ presence in the living room.However, Xyla Quest could always feel a chill of eeriness in the air no matter how gentle May tried to smile.Xyla returned the elders with a polite smile as she walked up to them, her hands tightly holding to the stunning man beside her.Stanley Batton placed the two boxes of cordyceps in front of Jeremy. “Dad, this is for you.”“Thank you, Stan… There are still plenty of tonics and supplements at home, so please don’t waste any more money on them.” Jeremy picked up one of the boxes and studied it carefully.Though Jeremy did not show it, he was delighted to receive a gift from his daughter and son-in-law, just like any other parents out there.Looking at their touched and happy faces, May felt very much like an outsider.Her mood w

Stanley Batton, who was sitting next to them, was touched by their conservation too.“Dad, you’re the best.” Xyla Quest hugged Jeremy Quest’s arm tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.“Silly kid, why are you crying?”“I’m touched.”“Look at you crying like a baby. How old are you, huh?”“No matter how old I am, I’m forever a little kid to you. This is what you’ve been telling me all the time. Therefore, I can always cry in front of you.” As Xyla spoke, she wiped the tears streaming down her cheeks inadvertently.Shaking his head helplessly, Jeremy turned to look at Stanley. “Look, Stan, my daughter hasn’t grown up yet. She’s still acting like a child.”Tenderness was written all over Stanley’s face as he stroked Xyla’s hair. “As long as we’re by her side, she can always be a child for the rest of her life.”Jeremy nodded in agreement.“By the way, if your aunt ever bothers you or begs you to forgive the Sullivans, you mustn’t be soft-hearted, okay?” Jeremy lowered his voice a

At this point, Xyla Quest could quickly figure out the real intention behind Emily Quest’s apology. All Emily hoped was that Xyla could let the Sullivan family off the hook this time upon their reconciliation.In addition, it was still a mystery whether Emily was involved in last night’s incident or not.Xyla did not answer her. She continued to stare at Emily silently, her eyes calm and emotionless.“Sister, you’re my sister, after all. We’re related by blood. Can you please forgive the Sullivan family for the sake of our relationship? You know that my life depends on them as well. If they’re good, I’m good. Conversely, if their company is going downhill, I won’t get any better too.” Emily choked with sobs. “Besides, my mother-in-law has already admitted that she was at fault.”“I don’t care about the Sullivan family’s condition. As long as your father is here, you’ll be fine.” Jeremy Quest interrupted her briskly and continued, “I’ve been lenient with you in many things because o

Bailey Ronson panted angrily while smashing her fists against the car seat several times. She gritted her teeth. “Emily, as I promised you earlier, I’ll let you hold the position of Tom Sullivan’s wife as long as you can help the Sullivan family survive through this crisis. With my support, your position will never be under threat.”Emily Quest nodded obediently. “Don’t worry. I can do this. Just drop me off at any hotel. We’ll go with the original plan.”“Good.” Bailey nodded.“You understand, right? We can’t mess up this time. As long as you succeed, not only will your status in the Sullivan family be raised, but Tom will also change his impression of you,” Bailey continued to tempt her.“I know.” Emily nodded once more.After Emily and Bailey left the Quest family’s house, the living room returned to its original, peaceful state.Noticing the gloomy expression etched on Jeremy Quest’s face, May Conner did not dare to make a sound anymore. She got up from the couch and went bac

“I think she should look at least as pretty as Xyla Quest, right?”“Don’t beat around the bush, you all. Just say that you’re jealous of Xyla Quest because she can be friends with Josh Batton.”Xyla Quest did not notice it, but her soft lips had stretched to a smile again as she scrolled through the comment section.After briefly reading a couple more comments, she exited the app and glanced at Stanley Batton. “Speaking of which, let’s go to your parents’ house tonight. I want to talk to Dad.”Stanley’s eyes were brimmed with curiosity. “Why? What’s the matter?”“Here’s the thing. Your brother came to me this morning, hoping that I could do him a favor. He asked me to persuade Dad to go to his concert… He wants to prove to Dad that his job isn't just about looking handsome… He wants him to notice his hard work,” explained Xyla.“Okay, then. We’ll have dinner at my place tonight,” Stanley said.“Alright, sure.”Stanley decided to pull up by the roadside when he passed by a bubbl

“Sorry, my wife won’t like that,” Stanley responded coldly.His blunt statement immediately cut off all the girls’ hopes and the desire stirring in their hearts. Their hearts were shattered.“Are you buying bubble milk tea for your wife?” The girl behind him asked again.“Who else would it be?” His answer was clear.Envy surged within that girl in the very next second…The others feel the same too.“Ahhh… His wife must be so grateful to have him!”“Looks like the good men on earth always belong to someone else… sigh…”The chitter-chatter among the girls behind Stanley did not cease for a second.Finally, it was Stanley’s turn to order.When the employee met his eyes, her cheeks turned pink. “Hi sir, may… may I take your order?”“One strawberry bubble milk tea, a hot one, please.” Without hesitation, the employee went off to prepare his drinks.She had complimented Stanley’s stunning face with extra toppings for his drinks.After his order was done, Stanley grabbed the

The lovebirds shared the same straw and drank the same cup of bubble milk tea in full view of the crowd. All the employees at the entrance cringed at the intimacy between the two of them.“I thought our President doesn’t like sweet drinks?”“I thought so too. I’ve never seen our President drink bubble milk tea.”“Oh gosh, I’m going to die… They’re too sweet. I feel so jealous of looking at them.”Whisper and exclamation rounded the employees as they walked into the building.With the crowd’s attention, Stanley Batton held Xyla Quest’s hand and led her into his company.“Are you sure you don’t want it anymore?” He peeked at the nearly finished bubble milk tea in his hand and asked Xyla.“Yes,” Xyla said.The two of them held hands all the way to the exclusive elevator used by Stanley.He threw the empty cup into the trash can beside the elevator before entering the elevator with Xyla.After the elevator door clicked shut behind them, Stanley abruptly stretched out his long arm

Then, Emily Quest took a picture of the cut and sent it to Bailey Ronson.The picture was attached with a brief sentence, which they had discussed in advance. “My life is hopeless and full of despair. Tell Brother Sullivan that I’ll be leaving first.”After that, she closed her eyes.On the other side, Bailey was dialing 911 in the Sullivan family’s living room after she received the message from Emily.Subsequently, she called Jeremy Quest and informed him about the tragic news. “Emily has tried to commit suicide just now! After we left your house this morning, Emily told me that she wanted to go shopping alone, so I dropped her off at a shopping mall nearby. However, she has just sent me a message on WeChat. It was a picture of her slit wrist with a sentence beneath it, saying that she felt hopeless and wanted to leave. She even asked me to tell Tom Sullivan that…”As soon as Jeremy heard about his daughter’s attempt at suicide, he sprang up from the sofa in fluster, his face as
