Chapter 79


    At the time, Emily Quest felt somewhat disappointed that Tom Sullivan would not be able to witness


    X Quest’s downfall.


    Now that Tom was here, it would be a great opportunity for him to witness all of it happening in front


    of Emily and her mother. By then, Emily was certain that Tom would have a bad impression of X.


    Cheerfully, Emily opened the door and found Tom standing outside.


    Since it was snowing outside, there wereyers of snow above his head and the shoulder caps of


    his dark blue woolen suit.


    There was a worn expression on his face which seemed telling of the exhaustion he must be


    feeling.


    “You don’t look like you have a bad stomach,” He said impatiently with a lowered tone.

    “I really wasn’t feeling well when I called you, but I got better after a while for some unknown


    reason,” Emily exined hurriedly.


    “Since you’re fine, I’m heading back to the office. I need to sort out a bunch of things at work,” Tom


    Sullivan said annoyedly before turning around and getting ready to leave with his arms crossed.


    During this period, the Sullivan family had been going through a lot of trouble due to the negative


    media published about them. Hence, Tom faced an increased amount of work as well. Therefore, he


    did not want to waste his time and effort on this woman whom he hated.


    However, Emily immediately stopped Tom from leaving while she reached for his arm. “Don’t leave,


    Brother Sullivan. Come and spend some time with me inside,” Emily said.


    As soon as she spoke, Emily dragged Tom forcefully into the living room. While she did so, Tom


    kept a frown on his face to make it obvious that he was unwilling to cooperate.


    However, the instant Tom saw X, the frown on his face disappeared. He no longer seemed


    unhappy. It was as if his soul had been shocked.


    The more Tom looked at X, the prettier she seemed. After being away for three years, he found


    X much more mature and attractive.


    Therefore, Tom allowed Emily to drag him all the way to the couch.


    While Emily sat next to X, Tom sat on the other side next to Emily. After sitting down, Tom


    nodded at Jeremy Quest and May Conner politely. “Hi, Uncle and Aunt.”


    “Yeah,” Jeremy grunted coldly. Due to the things Tom Sullivan had done, Jeremy hated him very


    much. Coupled with the fact that Jeremy was in a bad mood right now, he did not bother to react


    politely to Tom.


    “Hello!” May Conner, on the other hand, seemed to glow with joy.


    Meanwhile, X had been ignoring them since the beginning. Without even looking at these people,


    she continued to read news rted to the economy on her phone.


    “Dad, let’s go back to our earlier topic. Since X was the one who made you upset, why did you


    throw the phone at me? I’m a pregnantdy.” Emily was eager to get back into the conversation so


    that her father could teach X a lesson in front of them.


    While this thought urred to Emily, she nced over at X and Tom.


    If Brother Sullivan found out X was trying to bite off more than she could chew, would he be


    disappointed in her? How mad would her father be? Emily was very much looking forward to their


    reaction.


    “Switch on your phone,” Jeremy said coldly while he tried to control his temper.


    Out of curiosity, May nced at Jeremy before pushing X aside to sit next to Emily. May then


    picked up the phone and unlocked it to find out what Jeremy was trying to do.


    Right then, Emily and Tom had also shifted their gazes to the screen of the phone.


    After the phone screen was unlocked, a paused video came into sight. Emily pressed on it without


    even taking a moment to think.
