Chapter 1223


    Right after that, arge number ofments came into X Quest’s sight—


    “At first, when I saw somebody’s face all swollen up like that in a picture, I still felt sorry for that


    person. But after seeing that the person is Mary Sullivan? Never mind…”


    “What else could have happened? I remember that this woman always gets herself into trouble.


    She’s an old witch. She must have asked for it.”


    “I would still be a little curious if other people were beaten up, but if it’s Mary, I won’t even need to


    guess to know that it must’ve been her fault.”


    “Although it’s very mean to say this, I still want to tell the person who beat Mary up that you did a


    good job.”


    “Tsk, tsk… She really brings a lot of shame to the Sullivan family… What did she do this time?”


    Back when Mary Sullivan did many bad things, she often made it onto the list of hot topics.


    Her reputation wasn’t good, to begin with…


    Hence, now, X didn’t feel at all surprised by everyone’sments.


    X thought that the Sullivan family would soon see all this too.


    Tony Sullivan would definitely look for Mary to understand the situation.


    With Tony’s personality, he would get to the bottom of things.


    If Mary told the truth, she’d really be dead…


    Even if Mary didn’t tell the truth, Tony would go to Linda Jerome to verify it…


    Anyway, Mary was bound to die.


    After coldly looking through thements, X tossed her phone aside and started sorting out her


    piled-up work…


    Soon, she forgot all about Mary’s stuff.


    ***


    On the other hand, Mary, with her nose and face all swollen up, went to a small clinic to treat her


    wounds. After that, she got into her luxury car.


    As soon as she got in, she saw the news about herself on her phone.


    Suddenly, she felt as if she would explode.


    Mary knew that she was done for this time!


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    At first, she was still feeling lucky. Thinking that she managed to run away very quickly, nobody


    should’ve been able to take pictures of her, and things wouldn’t get blown out of proportion.


    However, from how things appeared now, she was genuinely mistaken…


    At first, she thought that if this were all kept under control, she would quickly look for a hotel to stay


    in. She’d nurse herself back to health before returning home.


    In this way, nobody would realize what had happened.


    However, from the looks of things, her bubble of hopes had burst!


    Mary needed to go home. Even if she didn’t, her father would use every method possible to find her


    and bring her home…


    When the time came, her father would surely ask her about the cause. Not only would he ask her,


    but he would also ask Linda Jerome.


    If her father found out about everything, Mary would be dead for sure…


    That was because her father had warned her before not to mess with X Quest again. If she


    messed with X again, she’d be dead for sure…


    At this moment, Mary suddenly felt a prickle in her scalp.


    Beep, beep, beep—


    Right then, her phone started to ring.


    The word ‘Daddy’ appeared on her phone screen. It was as if a bomb had gone off before her very


    eyes!


    At that moment, Mary suddenly felt as if her phone was so hot that it burned her hands.


    After hesitating for a long while, she finally picked up the call. “Dad… Why are you calling?” she


    asked carefully.


    “You piece of sh*t! Get home right now! Linda Jerome is now in our house…” Tony Sullivan yelled.


    When Mary heard this, she was thoroughly dumbfounded. Why was Linda now in her house?


    Before Mary could speak, Tony started talking again. “If you dare run off, I’ll break your legs! Get


    back here in half an hour.” Tony suddenly raised his voice.


    Mary was so terrified that she instantly shuddered.
