Chapter 559
Every bloody cut on Bailey Ronson’s body was like a stimnt to Emily Quest.
Before this, she was sulking because her n to ruin X was a big failure. Nevertheless, all the
sorrow and dejection within her had melted away as she looked at the scene unfolding before her.
“Emily, what are you doing there? Hurry up and help us to plead for Mom right now!” Tom Sullivan
ordered her coldly.
Finally,ing back to her senses, Emily’s smile faded as she put on a look of fear and grief. She
knelt in front of Tony Sullivan with her hands folded. “Dad, please forgive Mom. Though she’s
wrong, she’s your wife after all… If you’re not going to stop, please hit me instead of Mom…”
Tony gathered all his strength to free himself from Tom’s arms.
Shortly after, he raised the riding crop high into the air andshed out at Bailey again.
Emily immediately ran over and pulled Bailey into her arms.
In the next second, the cropnded right on her back.
Her skin cracked, and her flesh split open.
The scene terrified everyone in the living room.
None of them had expected that Emily would sacrifice herself to shield Bailey, not even Bailey
herself.
At that moment, Bailey was extremely touched by her action.
“Ahhh… Dad, please stop hitting Mom… Vent your anger on me instead…” Emily had rubbernecked
enough, and it was her chance to start acting now.
By doing so, she could greatly win the Sullivan family’s favor and avoid herself from being divorced
by her husband.
On top of that, Bailey would still be useful to her in the future. Therefore, she had to build a good
rapport with this pawn for her benefit.
Besides, Tom would look at her differently from now on, or even fall for her perhaps.
Tony Sullivan raised his crop again. “Get out of the way!”
However, Emily did not move at all and continued to hug Bailey tightly, determined to protect her.
“Emily, aren''t you scared?” Bailey asked breathlessly.
Emily nodded her head desperately. “I am. But I’m more afraid of you getting beaten up by Dad
instead of myself.”
For a moment, Bailey felt that Emily had changed. She was not as annoying as before.
Tony did not whip Emily in the end. He finally decided to put a stop to it as he did not want to
implicate the innocent.
Ruthlessly throwing away the crop in his hand, he glowered at Bailey once more before turning to
face Julian Sullivan. “Julian, it’ll be hard for you from today onward.”

Following what statement, he left the four of them and went upstairs.
He did not say anything to Tom.
Tom was extremely disappointed about that. He thought his father would at least ask for his help
after what had happened.
Nevermind. It did not matter. He was going to help out even if his father did not ask him to. As long
as he managed to solve the crisis faced by Sullivan Food Group, the situation would be different
then.
Gathering his thoughts, he quickly pushed Julian to where Bailey and X were sitting. He then
helped Bailey to get up from the floor, without even looking at Emily.
In his eyes, Emily was merely a smelly rag. No matter what she did, it would never get rid of the
disgust in his heart toward her.
Emily’s heart sank when she looked at Tom’s apathetic attitude.
Nevertheless, she tried to ignore her feelings and got up to help Bailey. “Mom, let’s go to the
hospital.”
Bailey nodded in agreement before asking her, “Are you okay?”
Emily simply shook her head. “It’s nothing. I’m d to be able to block that whip for you, Mom.”
Upon hearing that, Bailey’s heart was warmed instantaneously.
Today, none of her sons hade up to protect her from the whip.
Only Emily…

Meanwhile at the hotel, the guests surrounding X and Stanley gradually left their table.
The two of them were pretty hungry already.
As a result, they were focused on the food right now.
