Chapter 51


    “X, is this true?” Jeremy Quest was trying hard to suppress his anger as he looked at X Quest.


    He hoped that everything about this was fake.


    However, X did not speak and nodded gently instead before she took another sip of her tea.


    “Did you really get married overseas? It’s a huge deal. Why didn’t you talk to me about it?


    “What are you trying to do? Do you want to rebel against me?” The veins on Jeremy’s neck were


    bing apparent. After that, he angrily tossed the documents onto the coffee table.


    Suddenly, the temperature in the living room dropped. It felt as if the air was beingpressed.


    Jeremy ced a lot of hope on X. Initially, he nned to find X an excellent man to be


    her husband.


    However, he did not think that she would hastily get married without consulting him.


    How could she keep such an important thing from her father? Did she even think of him as her


    father?


    “Why else? It must be because her husband is a nobody. Dad, I bet that man is a gangster or


    something,” Emily Quest said while looking at X with a pleased expression on her face.


    Emily knew that X was done for! X would soon be defeated! Their father would never give the


    Quest family’s business to someone like her!


    “X, a marriage is a very important thing. How can you get married to a piece of trash just like


    that?This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.


    “If you treat yourself with such little respect, how can your Dad count on you in the future? Will you


    act irresponsibly when you manage thepany as well?” May Conner chipped in with words of


    insult. The duo was determined to take X down.


    Hearing this, Jeremy became even angrier. He agreed with what Emily and May said.


    “Is that so? X?” Jeremy stared at X and asked.


    “Dad, why do you even bother asking? It must be the case. Otherwise, what other reasons would


    she have?” Emily added eagerly.


    When Emily saw how angry her father was, she was overjoyed. She intended to paint an even


    worse picture of X’s situation.


    Instead of looking at Emily, Jeremy kept his eyes locked on X’s face as he waited for a response


    from her.


    On the other hand, X patiently took another sip of tea and swallowed it before she turned to look


    gently at her father. “Dad, it’s true that I got married.”


    “Haha… Dad, do you hear that? It’s all true.” Emily rolled her eyes at X before she leaned back


    and waited for more.


    “X, oh, X… Why did you give up on yourself so easily?” May pretended to sigh in defeat while


    she shook her head.


    X took another sip of her tea slowly before she put her cup down and looked at Jeremy. “Back


    then, I was being treated in America all on my own. Without any loved ones by my side, I went


    through a lot and had emotional breakdowns.


    “He appeared during my darkest hour. He was the grandson of the doctor who healed me. Also, he


    helped me get through the most difficult time of my life.


    “After I recovered, I chose to get married to him. Firstly, it was because I gradually developed


    feelings for him over time. Secondly, I wanted to repay the doctor’s kindness. By healing me from


    my sickness, he effectively gave me a second chance at life. I felt that it was the right thing to do.


    “Back then, I chose not to tell you because I was afraid you would disagree. After I came back, I


    thought of finding the right time to tell you. I didn’t n on keeping it a secret from you forever.”
