The fans who were initially drowning in their tears of sadness were now lively once more.‘Ahhh… It was all a joke after all. I was reading too much into it. Whew. Thank goodness it was a false alarm,’ someone wrote.Another person wrote, ‘I was ready to accept the harsh reality that my idol fell in love with a rich, divorced woman. Is that not true? It’s wonderful! I am no longer heartbroken!’‘I bet they must be very good friends, right? Otherwise, my idol would not have made a joke like that. I’m envious that Xyla Quest can be such good friends with my idol,’ someone else wrote.‘Even if they are just friends, I still feel jealous, okay? I’m so envious that Miss Xyla Quest can frequently meet the man of my dreams,’ someone wrote.After going through some of the comments, Xyla satisfactorily exited Weibo. She then locked her phone and put it away before stepping on the accelerator. She intended to personally go to the police station to cooperate with the police on Mary Sullivan’s inv

“Xyla, although Mary went a little too far, don’t you think sending her to prison is too harsh?” asked Tony.Xyla snorted coldly. “Do you really think it’s too harsh?”“I think it is. All Mary did was get a few people riled up to yell at you. There wasn’t any actual damage done.”Xyla could not believe that Tony had just said that. What did he mean there was no actual damage done? Weren’t being verbally attacked and framed with ill intentions considered a form of damage?“You weren’t emotionally hurt. Therefore, you wouldn’t understand how painful it is,” said Xyla with a bitter smile.“Okay, okay. Xyla, I understand. However, things have already happened. I’ll apologize on her behalf. Please do me a favor and let her go, will you?”Tony sounded very sincere, but Xyla knew that his sincerity was completely fake. She knew the Sullivan family better than anyone else. The only reason he sounded sincere was because he felt truly afraid that his daughter would be sent to prison.“I’m sorry.

By then, ‘#Mary Sullivan Sent To Prison#’ was topping the ranking of hottest searches, while ‘#Josh Batton And Xyla Quest Clear Up Rumors#’ was in second place.Upon seeing the second search result, Stanley’s defined eyebrows pressed tightly together as the chill in his eyes became darker. He glanced at Zack before tapping on the search result. Zack looked anxious. “Fifth Master, let’s… let’s not look at it.” Stanley ignored him and started reading earnestly. After briefly understanding the story, his eyes were fixed on the words Josh Batton had declared previously.‘Xyla Quest seducing me? I think it’s more like I’m the one trying to seduce her. You people think too highly of me.’ In an instant, Stanley frowned harder, a dangerous aura flashing in his eyes. Zack let out a helpless sigh and pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up his nose. “Fifth Master, please don’t be angry. Perhaps Sixth Master just said that casually.” “Get Josh Batton over to see me at once,” Stanley ordered

“When I manage to get him on the phone later, I’ll tell him about it and give him a good scolding, so that he gives up completely,” said Sharon with a straight face.”It’s my business, I’ll deal with it,” replied Stanley. “Don’t! Let me do it,” Sharon insisted. She knew Stanley’s temper well. Now that his little brother was eyeing his wife, even though Josh had no idea that Xyla was Stanley’s wife, Stanley would most definitely be furious. If the two brothers faced each other like this, Sharon was worried that a conflict would arise. “Just leave it to me, okay?” Sharon added. “No need,” Stanley answered without hesitation. He had obviously made up his mind. Sharon knew that saying more would be futile so she compromised, “Then, promise me that you won’t do anything to him.” “Don’t worry,” Stanley reassured. Sharon let out a sigh of relief. “Alright, I’ll hold you to that.” At the mention of this issue, Sharon was irked as well. However, the trigger was not only because

The atmosphere seemed awkward and sullen. Everyone’s expressions were dark. Xyla could tell that the Sullivan family had laid out their conditions. Her father must have called her back to compromise. She remained unfazed and walked calmly over to them. “Uncle Sullivan, Aunt Ronson, you’re here…” No matter how annoyed she was with the Sullivan family, she had to remain polite on the surface. Tony and Bailey nodded at her indifferently. Xyla strode over to Jeremy and sat down beside him, asking, “Dad, did you call me home for something?” “It’s not much, really. Your Uncle Sullivan and Aunt Ronson just want to apologize to you, so they made me call you back,” said Jeremy. “Oh, I see,” Xyla replied faintly, shifting her gaze to Tony and Bailey. “Xyla, I’m sorry. I’m really, really sorry. Can you let Mary go?” Bailey looked sincere. “I’ve already told Uncle Sullivan what needed to be said when he called me. The answer is no,” said Xyla. “Alright then. Now that you’ve apologi

“I’ve made my decision. You can do whatever you want to take revenge on me, but the Quest family are not pushovers,” added Jeremy. He was ready to turn against them completely, because what Mary had done was too much. He would stand up for his daughter indefinitely. If a man couldn’t even support his daughter, how was he a man at all? A true man would never let those around him suffer any grievances. “Alright… I announce that our family will withdraw our investment. Return our eight billion at once. Weren’t you very strong-willed? I want to see how you’ll get eight billion dollars in such a short amount of time. When the project has to halt and you’re completely out of ideas, don’t come and beg us,” Bailey uttered every word through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with hatred. Vrrt, vrrt, vrrt…Just then, Jeremy’s phone vibrated. Seeing that it was his assistant calling, he immediately answered. Soon, the tender voice of a woman flowed from the other end, “Mr. President, someon

“Yeah, the president’s assistant called our office personally. When he told us this, he sounded especially sincere. He even left his number with me, and said that you could contact him directly if you were interested,” said the voice on the other end.“Right, they also said that you can think of their investment capital as a loan. There’s no need for shares or bonuses. Once we make money, we just have to return it with a little bit of interest,” she added. Jeremy, Xyla, Bailey, and Tony were all utterly shocked.Why was the Quest Group receiving such a windfall? The Dragon group only wanted to invest, without expecting any shares or bonuses in return. Their interest rates were even similar to a bank’s. Were they doing charity? Why was something like this happening to the Quest Group? “Send his number to my WeChat. I’ll contact him in a bit,” said Jeremy. “Understood.” After that, Jeremy simply hung up. Happiness had arrived so suddenly. Right now, everything felt surreal, lik

Bailey nodded again. “Only, he might be unwilling to collaborate with us again. If we’d known, we never should have brought up withdrawing our investment. If we hadn’t, we’d still be on good terms.” She was now crying over spilled milk. If the two families were collaborating on a project, they would have a great many chances to meet. The initial awkwardness caused by Emily, Tom, and Mary would also be eased up slightly. And when the Quest family truly became prestigious, the Sullivan Group could benefit a little from them. *** Xyla followed Jeremy into his study. Jeremy led her to sit down at the side of the bed in front of the coffee table. There was an expensive celadon tea set on the coffee table. The tea in the pot was still hot, with steam coming out of it. A faint, refreshing scent of Iron Goddess tea leaves rose together with the steam and enveloped their senses. Xyla slowly poured Jeremy a cup of tea before placing it in front of him with both hands. “Thank you, Dad

“Alright, if there’s nothing much, hurry on back to the company. I’ll give that president’s assistant a call,” said Jeremy. “Yeah, call me if anything happens,” said Xyla as she got up. Jeremy nodded, and Xyla left the room. Based on the current situation, it seemed like the Dragon Group was really planning to do charity by helping them. The possibility of this being true and not a scam was high. At this thought, she suddenly felt like she was on cloud nine. Hopefully, this could all proceed as desired. But even if it didn’t, she wasn’t afraid, because she had the money they needed.From the money she earned from X Entertainment, she had saved part of it and even invested some. Due to her good sense, her investments had been returned by a hundred folds. Since X Entertainment’s establishment until now, her accumulated wealth was just around eight billion. *** Back at the Quest Group, Xyla shut everything out as she immersed herself in work. This continued on until six in the

Xyla put his call on hold before continuing to talk to Georgie. “Alright, alright, do as you please,” Georgie said helplessly. “That’s settled then. I have things to take care of so I’m hanging up. Let’s have a meal next time,” said Xyla. She ended her call with Georgie and switched over to Josh’s call. “Where are you? Do you have time for dinner?” Josh Batton’s voice sounded crisp and gentle as usual. “Yeah, I’m at the Quest Group,” replied Xyla. “I’ll come pick you up. I’ll be there in half an hour.” “Okay.”After hanging up, Xyla browsed through a few more documents. When it was almost time for Josh to arrive, she swiftly touched up her makeup before pulling her hair up into a ponytail and went downstairs with her backpack.Just then, a black Rolls Royce pulled up and stopped right in front of her. The car window rolled down, revealing Josh Batton’s smile. He was driving so there was no one else in the car. “Get in,” he said. Xyla scanned her surroundings. Verifyin
