“Alright, Dad is going upstairs to rest. You should rest early too. Tom, it’s getting late. You should head home soon,” Jeremy Quest said before standing up and heading upstairs.When Xyla Quest saw him leaving, she could not help but feel her heart aching on his behalf.It must have felt terrible to be betrayed by the person he trusted the most. It must have hurt even more to send the person he loved to jail.After Jeremy left, Xyla began heading upstairs as well. It did not seem like she even wanted to speak to Tom Sullivan.Alas, Xyla had seen through all of Tom’s tricks. He was an absolute jerk who did not even deserve to be looked at.However, just as Xyla arrived at the staircase, Tom immediately ran after her. He took one step further up the stairs to stand in her way.After a second, he wrapped his hands tightly around her shoulders.“I was very worried about you after what happened to Imperial Prime. When I saw how well you handled the situation, I felt very happy for you. Why
However, Xyla Quest did not respond to his nonsense. Instead, she frowned a little before using a shoulder throw to bring Tom Sullivan to the ground.Thereafter, Xyla swiftly made her way upstairs and disappeared around the corner without hesitation.After being thrown to the ground, Tom Sullivan barely had the energy to get up, never mind going after Xyla.After a long while, he finally crawled up with much difficulty as he panted and held onto the railing.Had Xyla picked up martial arts? She was even more appealing now.“Xyla, I won’t give up on you.” Tom had a determined look in his eyes.After Xyla went upstairs, she went directly to the master bedroom. As the door was not completely closed, she could see Jeremy smoking on his bed while he sat with his back facing the door.Amidst the smoke, Xyla could see how depressed he appeared. Her heart went out to him.Although Xyla wanted to go in to comfort him, she decided to close the door silently after some though. She knew her father
After three seconds, Zack Cassidy recollected himself. However, he was in a state of disbelief.Fifth Master did not used to be like this.Right then, the computer screen turned gray while a line of words appeared on the screen.“You have been killed.”Stanley Batton acted as if he had not seen it. Instead, he shifted his gaze back to Zack.Zack immediately appeared respectful as before.“The person who went around spreading rumors had been located. That person is a famous hacker. Now, he has already admitted to everything. He said that Emily Quest was the person who had instructed him to do so. I heard that the young madam personally decoded the man’s fake IP address and tracked him down. I did not expect her to be a computer expert. She really is amazing,” Zack said.Stanley smiled a little but did not say anything. He was in awe of Xyla’s abilities.“Now, as long as the Quest family makes an announcement to show proof of what had actually transpired, the whole thing will come to pas
Embarrassing moments always came when one was least prepared for them.Meanwhile, Stanley Batton chose to ignore their messages and continued to play the game skillfully. He clicked on the mouse rapidly to activate one skill after another.Although it was only a game, he made it seem as if he were playing the piano. He was the most elegant killer in the world.Very soon, Stanley’s team achieved victory. He immediately removed himself from the queue and proceeded to open the chatroom between him and Xyla Quest in Wechat.After hovering his finger above the screen for a few seconds, he narrowed his eyes a little. “I’ve already memorized the book. What’s next?”Right then, Xyla was also waiting in a queue for her teammates to get matched.“Beep beep…”When Xyla’s phone suddenly started vibrating, she shifted her gaze to the phone.She was surprised to read what Five Batton sent her.How was he able to memorize everything in that book in such a short amount of time? Did he have a photograp
Although Sharon Lindt knew that Stanley Batton did not like it when someone talked to him while he was gaming, Sharon could not resist speaking her mind after seeing ‘Seven’.Stanley gave Sharon a look before he continued fighting against Seven.Sharon sat on the armrest of his chair while she observed the match earnestly.“Can I stay here and observe the entire match? After all, this is a battle between the two best players. I know you don’t like it, but it’s just this one time,” Sharon said.Her eyes were filled with hope and urgency. Sharon was eager to watch Stanley defeat his opponents.Meanwhile, Stanley was completely focused on playing the game. Despite the intense battle, he kept a calm expression on his face and did not say a word.Assuming that he silently agreed, Sharon did not leave.However, Stanley soon died in battle yet again. Like the last time, he was very close to defeating Seven.“Ahhh. If only you used A on him a moment sooner, he would have died instead,” Sharon
“Compared to you, I am a newbie. God, can you please guide me in the game more often? Please consider doing it because I am so weak. Sob.” North wrote.“Okay.” Seven responded.“God, you are the best! Oh, yeah. Are you a professional player?” North asked.“No.” Seven replied.When Stanley Batton returned, the first thing he saw was the messages Sharon Lindt sent on her phone. He immediately started frowning.Did his mother just ruin his heroic reputation? Did she claim that he was weak and helpless and asked someone to guide him? Sob? God, you are the best?Earlier, Stanley had rejected the person upfront. Now that Sharon had said these things about Stanley, how would that person think?“Mom, why did you do that?” Stanley asked unhappily.“What did I do? Can’t I just play with her?” Sharon asked.“This is my account,” Stanley answered.“But she wouldn’t accept any of my friend requests. Therefore, I will use your account whenever I want to play so that Seven can guide me,” Sharon said
After glancing at the headline about Emily Quest, Xyla Quest opened the news article related to Imperial Prime.At the top of the page, there was an official press statement from the Quest family and documents of proof from the police.In summary, the negative media related to Imperial Prime was a false rumor somebody had intentionally created. After that, they would be taking legal action against the criminal. Despite the rumors, units in Imperial Prime were sold out yesterday. It only took a total of six days.The Quest family did not announce the person who came up with the rumor. The police documents did not reveal the individual either.Xyla knew that this was something her father wanted. If word got out that something like this happened in the Quest family, they would become the laughing stock of this world.Therefore, Xyla could understand why all of this had to be done.Since her father had decided to end this episode here, Xyla would respect his decision.Many internet users w
All Xyla Quest wanted to tell this person right now was ‘good job’.Xyla began to smile widely. Right then, it seemed almost as if she were brighter than the sun.“Xyla, are you listening?” Lana Harrison asked.“Yeah, I am listening. If you can’t find out who that person is, I’m sure he must be a big shot.” Xyla quickly returned to her senses.Who was this person? He was unbelievably powerful.“That’s for certain. I wonder what Emily and her mother have done to deserve such misfortune. It must be karma,” Lana said.“Yeah,” Xyla said.“They deserve it. I feel happy just thinking about it. Alright, you are probably busy this early in the morning. Aunty shan’t bug you any longer,” Lana said.“Alright. Aunty, let’s have a chat when we are free. Thank you, Aunty,” Xyla said.“Don’t thank me, silly child. It’s what I should do anyway,” Lana said.After hanging up, Xyla turned to face the sunlight before stretching her arms out.When Jeremy Quest came to her mind, she immediately stopped smil
