Chapter 401

There were many people around Josh Batton and Stanley Batton, but all the ladies in the room had their eyes on them.Meanwhile, their gazes were focused on the girl downstairs.When Catherine Batton finally got tired of dancing, she ran upstairs and stood in between the two of them. “You guys are boring. We said we would come here to dance, but none of you went down to dance. You’re only watching me dance,” she said with a smile and narrowed eyes.Josh gently brushed her nose. There was a look of fondness under his shades. “Are you tired?”After that, Josh removed a white handkerchief from his pocket before carefully wiping sweat off her face.Catherine grabbed the handkerchief and quickly wiped her sweat off. “I’m fine… Josh, can I ask you for a favor?”“Do you even need to ask? Just tell me,” Josh answered without hesitation.After that, he smiled gently.“Hehe… Could you get me autographs from Jay Corben and Morty Wayne?” Catherine asked while she blinked her large, glimmeri

Xyla Quest quickly came back to her senses. “Nothing much. I’m just thinking that your girlfriend is rather lucky.”Stanley Batton looked deeply at Xyla. “Yeah… She sure is.”Hearing this, Xyla’s heart pounded a little. She had a stunned expression on her face too.However, she quickly recovered. “I’ll wait for the food in the dining room,” she said.“Are you sure there’s nothing on your mind?” Stanley asked with a serious look.“Yeah… I look terrible because I stayed up late for work,” Xyla said before directly turning around and walking into the dining room.Stanley frowned confusedly. He did not press on for more answers. Instead, he carefully used his chopsticks to flip the bacon strips over on the flat pan.***May Conner’s birthday party was unusually grand.Luxury cars were parked everywhere outside and inside the Quest family’s courtyard.Inside the house, the living room was decorated like a banquet hall.There were bright and colorful balloons, pure white roses, to

Chapter 403

Inside, there was an intricate jade bracelet that looked like it was of the highest quality.May Conner smiled. “Thank you, Xyla… Thank you, Stan.”Right then, Tony Sullivan walked in with Mary Sullivan and Bailey Ronson…Mary was the most eye-catching of the three, wearing a little red evening gown with a high ponytail. There was a proud look in her eyes.The moment Mary saw Xyla Quest, her gaze went cold.The family made their way directly to May.The two adults from the Sullivan family began exchanging pleasantries with May and Jeremy Quest while they offered best wishes for May’s birthday.Xyla’s attention was entirely focused on the butterfly-shaped diamond pendant around Mary’s neck. She didn’t have any expression on her face.Mary, who remained silent the entire time, shifted her attention to Xyla.When Mary saw the necklace around Xyla’s neck, she immediately snorted coldly. “Xyla… Isn’t that Blue Romance around your neck?”“What’s the matter?” Xyla asked.Mary snort

Chapter 404

At this moment, a large group of rich housewives surrounded Mary Sullivan and began eyeing her necklace and examining the pendant carefully.While they did this, they complimented her.“Hey, it really is Sunny’s work of art. Look at the intricate details. This butterfly looks so real.”“Mary, it’s amazing that you managed to buy Sunny’s product. This person is very mysterious, and she only works with one brand every year to release a single design of jewelry. In fact, they are always one-of-a-kind in the world.”“Many women can only dream of buying these one-of-a-kind designs from her… I try to buy it every year, but I always fail.”These women were so noisy that Xyla Quest couldn’t hear what Rebecca Robin was saying on the phone.Hence, Xyla grabbed Stanley Batton’s hand and walked away. “Aunt Rebecca, how are you? I’m at a birthday party, and it’s extremely noisy here. I couldn’t hear what you said earlier,” Xyla said gently.“Oh, it’s fine. I just asked if you could put the c

Chapter 405

Everyone felt even more shocked! They began looking at each other at once.Was the vice president’s wife personally cooking for Xyla Quest? Who would have thought that was possible?After chatting with Rebecca Robin for a while, Xyla hung up.Very soon, the crowd surrounded Xyla and began asking her about her relationship to Rebecca. She was like a celebrity all of a sudden.The people around Xyla were bombarding her with questions one after another. The voices were all mixed up such that Xyla couldn’t even quite clearly hear them.Xyla also had no idea who she should reply to first.All she could do was smile awkwardly while she listened to their unending list of questions…Meanwhile, Mary felt like a neglected child nearby, with nobody batting an eyelid at her now.Mary felt as if her attention had been stolen away by Xyla completely. Right then, she was feeling extremely annoyed.Was Xyla so capable that she could now mingle closely with influential people like Rebecca?Ma

“For the time being, I still haven’t been able to find anything. Please give me more time…” The man’s voice could be heard from the other end of the call.“Why haven’t you found anything? Are you useless?” Emily Quest said disappointedly. She seemed very unhappy.“Miss Quest, could it be… that there’s nothing at fault with your sister’s husband? Why else can’t I find anything?” The man asked carefully.“That’s impossible. Keep investigating. My intuition is never wrong. If you haven’t found anything, why did you call me?” Emily yelled scornfully.“I just called to tell you that my pay for this month is late by two days.”“I know! I’ll give you one more month. If you can’t find anything, you can get lost,” Emily said through gritted teeth before hanging up right away.***Downstairs, Xyla Quest was still the center of attention.There was an increasing number of women surrounding her. They kept trying to talk to her about the vice president’s wife.Having to suddenly deal with

Chapter 407

Jeremy Quest couldn’t resist raising his thumb. “Xyla, you are truly excellent. Indeed, you live up to the expectations I have for you as my heir.”“To be honest, it’s probably because she liked the way I looked,” Xyla said. This was the only reason Xyla could think of if she had to provide an explanation.“Regardless of what the reason is, I still think you are amazing,” Jeremy complimented her yet again. He seemed very proud of Xyla.“Yeah, Xyla is amazing. But you should be careful when interacting with people like her. If you make a wrong move, you might end up dragging the entire family business down,” May said and smiled at Xyla while she pretended to be concerned.Xyla looked at May calmly while she replied to her. “Okay… Thank you for the reminder, Aunty. I know what to do. If there’s nothing else, Aunty, we’ll be heading back. I need to get ready to go over to the vice president’s residence tonight.”“Okay, okay… Oh right, Xyla. I want to buy you a new race car… Don’t you

Chapter 408

After finishing her sentence, Xyla Quest headed directly upstairs.Buzz, buzz, buzz… Catherine Batton’s call came in again and distracted Stanley Batton right then.“What is it now?” Stanley said after picking up.“Nothing much. I just wanted to ask if you want to play a game with me?”“No,” Stanley answered right away.After that, he ended the call and walked out the door.***Meanwhile, in the Quest family’s villa, Emily Quest was playing with her phone in bed after calming herself down from feeling angry earlier.Beep, beep, beep… Suddenly, she received a call from Tom Sullivan.When she saw who was calling, her hand trembled slightly.These days, Tom had been calling her very frequently, and he always talked about getting a divorce.Despite rejecting him each time, Tom still called her back repeatedly. It seemed he was very determined about it.As usual, Emily immediately cancelled the call.She absolutely refused to get a divorce with Tom. Now, she had already lost to

Chapter 409

“Honey, Emily likes race cars the most. If you’re buying one for Xyla, could you also buy one for Emily? Perhaps she might feel better if she saw the car. What do you think?” May Conner asked.“Okay…” Jeremy Quest nodded decisively.May then smiled satisfactorily before resting her head against Jeremy’s shoulder and hugging him tightly around the waist.***As soon as Emily Quest arrived by the entrance, she could see Tom Sullivan’s Bentley parked right in front.The two cherry blossom trees in front of the entrance were in full bloom. There were light pink petals all over them.When a gust of wind blew past the trees, the petals took off to the air like snowflakes. Eventually, the petals landed on the ground, and some also landed on the roof of Tom’s car.Emily tried her best to appear depressed while she quickly got into the car from the passenger side before closing the door.Tom glared at her coldly before forcefully tossing the divorce papers onto her hand. “Hurry up and s

Chapter 410

“Tom Sullivan, you really are cruel!” Emily Quest yelled through gritted teeth.“Yeah, I am very cruel. Why don’t you get a divorce? Why don’t you get rid of me? Just take the money I’m offering and get lost. What are you thinking? You really are a lowly b*tch!” Tom Sullivan raised his voice and stared at her face like he was staring at his enemy.Tom absolutely hated this woman. He was determined to get a divorce.His words hit Emily like a truck. She was now bawling her eyes out.Emily felt as if Tom had just torn her heart apart.“Tom Sullivan, this is too much,” Emily said while she clutched the divorce agreement tightly. The white sheets were now all crumpled.“If you don’t want me to do this, sign the papers,” Tom said. He had been trying to negotiate with her for so long in the nicest way possible, but she repeatedly rejected him. How else could he achieve his objective if he didn’t use drastic measures?“I have depression… Severe depression. Are you trying to get me kill
