Chapter 77


    “Who do you think you are? If my predictions are correct, after this incident today, Father will lose all


    confidence in you. Congrattions!” Emily Quest continued to mock, feeling better the more she


    spoke.


    Emily felt extremely aplished for mocking a failure.


    After holding herself back the entire day, X’s patience was at its limit. She clenched her fists.


    However, she forced back her emotions once more because there was no longer a need for her to


    take physical action.


    “Sit in the living room and wait for me,” said X.


    “What for?”


    “I have an announcement to make,” said X calmly. She nced at Emily’s face nonchntly


    before she headed upstairs.


    “What announcement? An announcement that you’re backing out of Imperial Prime?” Emily was


    getting cheekier as she spoke.


    “Yeah.” Having said that, X went upstairs.


    Since all the units of Imperial Prime had been sold, wasn’t it time for her to back out?


    As she watched Emily’s delighted expression, X felt even more amused.


    After hearing that, Emily was ecstatic. As expected, X had failed! She was probably asking


    Father toe downstairs so she could exin and admit that she was ipetent!


    “Tragic…!” Emily smiled as she shook her head before walking over to the sofa with glee and sitting


    down.


    About ten minutester, X was supporting Jeremy by the arm as they made their way downstairs.


    Jeremy’s expression was cold as ice while beside him, X remained expressionless. It was hard to


    guess what she was thinking at this moment.


    It was a stark contrast to what her father was showing.


    After seeing Jeremy’s expression, Emily further affirmed her thoughts. It must be that!


    Soon, Jeremy sat down on the single sofa while X sat next to Emily.


    “Father, looking at your expression, I’m sure X has told you about wanting to back out, right?


    “X, I’m not trying to lecture you, but you don’t even have any capabilities, so why did you


    shoulder everything on your own?


    “To think Father put so much faith in you and left it in your hands without hesitation. In the end, is


    this how you repay him?” Emily continued wlessly in an attempt to fuel the fire andpletely


    provoke Jeremy.


    Jeremy’s expression darkened as he instantly looked at Emily murderously.


    “Father, why are you looking at me? Have I said something wrong?


    “The ipetent person now is X, not me.” Having said that, Emily red at X.


    However, X ignored her and quietly picked up an unopened fruit juice bottle from the coffee table.


    She poured herself a ss before leisurely drinking it.


    “Why are you still in the mood to drink anything at a time like this? Because of your horoscope


    ipatibility, Imperial Prime is in danger now.


    “Our entire Quest family might even be dragged down by it! Can you still bring yourself to drink


    anything in this situation? How did Father raise such a heartless daughter like you?” Emily


    eximed in dissatisfaction.

    The next instant, a cellphone fell onto Emily’sp. Having something thrown at her so suddenly


    surprised Emily.


    She held up the phone and met Jeremy’s hostile eyes with a confused expression. “Father, what are


    you doing?”
