Chapter 876


    If only he had adhered to his principles when X Quest was hideous. If only he had resisted the


    temptation to cheat when X was fat. Would his life have been better that way?


    Unfortunately, there were no ifs in this world. Results and consequences were the only things that


    awaited him.


    Buzz buzz buzz…


    Suddenly, his phone vibrated, pulling him back to the present from his deep thoughts.

    Tom Sullivan slowly recollected himself and took a look at his phone.


    Seeing that Bailey Ronson was calling him, he quickly answered the call, “Yes?”


    “The detention center just informed us that your sister would be released tomorrow morning. Let’s


    go to pick her up together,” Bailey said.


    “Okay…”


    “About the divorce… Well, our decision is final. I hope you can make up your mind soon. By the


    way, you’d bettere back and apologize to your father. He’s mad.”


    Tom felt a flicker of frustration at the mention of the word ‘divorce’. Irritation, grievance, and


    disappointment piled up in his heart, engulfing him like a horrifying monster.


    He was at a loss for word. He immediately hung up on Bailey, switched off his phone, and threw it


    onto the passenger seat impatiently. He gritted his teeth as he mumbled to himself, “Emily…


    Emily…”


    ***


    In the evening, after Stanley Batton and X had had dinner with Jeremy Quest at the Quest


    family’s house, they went back to X’s old bedroom.


    The house had not changed in the slightest after she left.


    Everything was the same as it was.


    “Take a shower and get some rest. Don’t stay up toote,” X reminded him.


    “Alright, let’s take a shower together,” As Stanley spoke, he stretched his arms and lifted her


    effortlessly.


    X’s heart was racing frantically at that instant.


    “Nah, I’ll take a bath after you… You should save some energy,” X whispered awkwardly.


    He had just recovered, after all.


    “Why? Are you afraid that I’m too weak to do it?” Stanley cracked into a mischievous smile.


    X nodded truthfully…


    “Well, I’ll let you know whether I’m weak or not…”


    Following that statement, he carried her straight into the bathroom.


    As soon as he stepped into the bathroom, he disyed his domineering personality and proved


    himself to her physically…


    He went on until X started to beg for mercy. Only then was he willing to release her and carry her


    to the bathtub for a quick bath.


    ***


    Rolling her eyes at the man grouchily, X put on the snow-white bathrobe and walked to the sink.


    She then reached for the hairdryer and started drying her hair.


    Her stunning figure was perfectly reflected in the mirror.


    Her bare face was as beautiful as a flower.


    Meanwhile, the culprit was casually wrapping a white towel around his waist as if nothing had just


    happened.


    Once again, X rolled her eyes at him through the mirror. She then ignored him and focused on


    drying her hair.


    Stanley walked up to her after twisting the end of his towel into a tight knot. He took the hairdryer


    from her and dried her hair nimbly.


    X was d that her husband came to help her as her arms were sore.


    She ced her palms on the sink and stood there in silence, happily enjoying Stanley’s special


    service.
