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
There wasn’t a heating system in the kitchen. On top of that, the water from the running tap was as cold as ice.Emily Quest and May Conner were not even given sponges to wash the dishes. They had to do it with their bare hands.When the oily leaves got stuck on their hands, the duo felt utterly disgusted.By now, their hands had already turned purple from the cold. Their bodies were also shivering.The frowns on their faces were so deep that they could probably kill a fly between their brows.Right now, they were more affected by the hopelessness they felt inside than the cold they felt physically.Although they were both aware of the precarious situation they were in, neither of them could come up with a solution to resolve this mess.Whenever Emily thought of the fact that she was locked in prison until the day of her wedding, she would break down in tears.When she thought of the idea of losing her father completely, she felt even more hopeless.May Conner was in a similar situatio
Right then, the financial news channel began broadcasting news about the Quest family from the living room.The words that came to the ears of Emily Quest and May Conner felt like needles pricking their eardrums.Emily immediately became enraged. She did not understand how Xyla Quest was able to do all this. Why was victory always on her side? Why did good things always surround Xyla?Xyla must be very happy right now. Emily hated her! She was jealous of her! Emily refused to give up!May was feeling the same way. In fact, she could not help but think about how Emily would live in the future with Xyla still in the spotlight. If May was kicked out of the house, she was certain that Emily would not have it easy at home.May was determined not to let something like that happen!Distracted, Emily accidentally knocked her hand against the metal faucet while washing the dishes.Her freezing fingers were in great pain.“Ouch…” Emily cried out in pain before shaking her hand, fervently.Howeve
