Chapter 93


    All X Quest wanted to tell this person right now was ‘good job’.


    X began to smile widely. Right then, it seemed almost as if she were brighter than the sun.


    “X, 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.” X


    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,” X 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,” X said.


    “Don’t thank me, silly child. It’s what I should do anyway,” Lana said.


    After hanging up, X turned to face the sunlight before stretching her arms out.


    When Jeremy Quest came to her mind, she immediately stopped smiling.


    ***


    Once X was done brushing up, she walked out of her room without any make-up on.


    Her long, ck, wavy hair rested on her shoulders. With fair skin and red lips, her face looked


    almost like a peach blossom.


    X was only wearing an entirely white silk robe. Her fairy-like eleganceplimented the


    simplicity of the outfit.


    When X went to the master bedroom, she realized that Jeremy was not there. Hence, she


    proceeded to walk downstairs to the dining room.


    Right then, Jeremy was seated at the dining table while he read the newspaper. There were two


    sses of warm milk sses, sunny side up eggs, sandwiches, vegetable sd, fruit sd,


    wholegrain bread, and fresh orange juice.


    However, Jeremy had not touched any of them.


    There was a tired look in his eyes, which he tried to hide behind the newspaper.


    X could immediately tell that he did not sleep wellst night, making her feel even more


    saddened.


    She hurriedly walked over and sat down next to Jeremy. She pushed her head away from her face


    casually until they fell over her back.


    “Dad, are you okay?” She looked at him gently.


    To be honest, she knew he was not in a good state without even asking.


    Anyone else in the same position would not be in a good state. Although Jeremy had spoken


    fiercely to his wife and daughter, he still loved and cared about them.


    However, being tricked by the people closest to him, and even going through a painful divorce, X


    could imagine how bad it felt.


    Every human being had feelings.


    “Yeah,” Jeremy uttered as he put the newspaper down and looked at X nkly.


    “The pain wille to pass. I will be by your side,” X said while gently holding his hand.


    Jeremy’s eyes turned red. However, he did not say anything and instead nodded and patted her


    hand lightly.


    After that, Jeremy picked up one of the sandwiches and ced it in front of X.


    “Alright, let’s eat. Let’s not talk about these sad things,” he said.


    “Alright. Have a little more,” X replied with a nod. However, she did not feel better at all.


    “X, take a few days off to rest and return to the headquarters after that. Just as I said before, you


    will be the new sales manager. I hope you can make us proud yet again,” Jeremy said as he


    chewed on his sandwich.


    “Alright. I won’t let you down,” X said confidently.


    “Yeah. I have faith in you,” Jeremy said.

    Meanwhile, at the police station, Emily Quest and May Conner had just finished eating and were


    washing the dishes in front of the kitchen sink.


    Thousands of oily chopsticks and bowls were piled up next to them with pieces of leaves all over


    them.
