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 of your depression. However, you have to understand that there's a limit to everything. Regarding this matter, there's no room for discussion even if it's you who is trying to plead us, Emily."

Tears began to flow down Emily's cheeks like a river. "Dad..."

"Jeremy, I really have learned my lesson. Once again, I would like to sincerely apologize to Xyla and the two of you..." Clutching Emily's hand, Bailey Ronson forced a sincere expression on her face as she looked at them.

"You finally know how to apologize now? Where has your arrogance gone? Why don't you continue to accuse us like how you did at the charity dinner?" Fury festered within Jeremy as he thought about it. What the heck?

"Jeremy, I've been punished for my terrible mistake. Look at my face and my body. My husband has almost beaten me to death. Please intercede for me. I'm also feeling very miserable." Bailey sobbed. "You asked for it, Bailey. You reap what you sow." In Jeremy's opinion, everything she did, and every word she said at the banquet was absolutely unworthy of forgiveness.

Her motive was execrable!
