Chapter 923


    The meetingsted for more than an hour.


    After X Quest decided to call it a day, the employees gave her a respectful nod and left the office


    one after another.


    X shuffled to her office desk exhaustedly and plopped onto her soft,fortable office chair.


    Her neck was sore and stiff.


    She slowly rolled her head in the clockwise direction for a few seconds before turning on the


    computer to look for more information about Stanley Batton’s blood disease on the inte.


    She talked to Stanley and Ron Batton for the past few days to learn more about the disease.


    There were many types of congenital dyserythropoietic anemia, and Stanley’s was known as


    astic anemia.


    It was mainly caused by the malfunction of the hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow.


    It was not a terminal illness for most people. It could usually be cured by undergoing a bone marrow


    transnt.


    Unfortunately, Stanley was a special case. His gic materials did not allow him to undergo a


    bone marrow transnt. He had a high chance of suffering from extreme, life-threatening transnt


    rejection if he went for the surgery.


    X had been looking for possible treatments for his unique condition for several days but to no


    avail.


    Although she considered herself proficient in the medical field, she felt really helpless and useless


    about Stanley’s blood disease.


    However, she did not want to give up.

    Failing to find any information from the inte, X started to send emails to some of her friends


    and experts in the medical field to ask for help.


    When she was about to send the third email, her phone vibrated.


    It was Jeremy Quest who called her.


    X massaged her forehead wearily before picking up the call.


    “X,e to my office now,” Jeremy said.


    “Okay,” X answered without hesitation, after which she hung up the phone.


    She grabbed her phone and headed straight to the president’s office.


    She knocked on the door politely a few times. After receiving a response from Jeremy, she pushed


    open the door and entered the office.


    Jeremy was alone in the office.


    He was currently holding a magnifying ss in his right hand, carefully examining a piece of old


    French painting.


    Noticing X’s arrival, Jeremy immediately put down the magnifying ss and looked at X.


    “X,e over here.”


    Following that statement, he gently waved at X.


    X quickly walked up to him and stood beside him. “Dad, is there anything I can help you with?”


    she asked.


    “Nah, I just want to tell you that the divorce agreement is ready. I’ve asked mywyer to send it to


    May Conner,” Jeremy said. There was not a sign of grievance or regret on his face.


    Upon hearing that, X studied his expression in earnest, her eyes brimming with curiosity.


    Seeing that he was as calm as ever, she heaved a sigh and asked, “I see… Has she signed yet?”


    “She refuses to do so, but that’s not going to affect my decision. I’ll send mywyer tomunicate


    with her again. If she doesn’t want to sign, then we’ll proceed with the legal process.” Jeremy


    added, “X, I’m going to leave that woman no matter what. She’s horrible.”


    “Alright.” X nodded in agreement. She then met his eyes and asked cautiously, “Dad, are you


    okay?”


    Jeremy shrugged indifferently. “Yeah. I’m done with her. Keeping her by my side won’t do us any


    good.”


    “Good to hear that.” X smiled.


    “You and Stan don’t have toe back for dinner tonight. I’m fine being alone.” Jeremy returned


    her smile.


    “Okay then.” X nodded before continuing, “Dad, you can alwayse to me if you’re in a bad


    mood.”


    Yet, Jeremy shrugged indifferently again. “Look at me. Do I look like I’m in a bad mood? By the way
