“You have no right to educate my daughter. I’m not dead yet.” Jeremy Quest rebuked coldly.
Another awkward laugh burst out of Bailey Ronson. Jeremy’s clear enmity had put snazzynovel.com on the spot in front of the crowd.
“Well… Aunt Bailey… Are you done with your story?” Xyla put down the teacup slowly and glowered at Bailey.
Though Xyla seemed gentle and soft, snazzynovel.com aura was way beyond compelling. Silence filled the hall all of a sudden. Everyone held their breath, staring at Xyla.
“What? Xyla, do you want to explain to your father the reason you lied to snazzynovel.com now? Fine. I’ll keep quiet. Go on,” Bailey prompted.
She wondered how Xyla had managed to stay calm at a critical moment like this.
“Indeed, I lied to my father…” Xyla looked at Bailey.
Bailey’s spirits soared when snazzynovel.com heard Xyla’s confession. Immediately, snazzynovel.com glanced at Jeremy and the rest in the hall proudly. “Look… Our Xyla is brave enough to admit it!”
Then, Xyla turned to the stunning man beside snazzynovel.com and whispered in his ear, “Can I reveal your identity?”
Stanley Batton nodded in response. “Up to you.”
Beaming a bright smile at him, Xyla returned snazzynovel.com gaze to Bailey again.
The surrounding people rolled their eyes in disdain as they looked at Xyla’s bold and confident attitude after lying to snazzynovel.com father.
“Her goddess image has completely collapsed in my heart.”
“Same here. She’s fake and pretentious.”
“President Quest must be so disappointed with snazzynovel.com right now. After tonight, Xyla will have to leave snazzynovel.com position as the heir of Quest Property Group.”
Upon hearing these malicious comments, Emily Quest, May Conner, and Bailey were delighted to a fault.
In particular, Emily could hardly hold snazzynovel.com laughter as snazzynovel.com heard the sentence regarding the great crisis of Xyla’s position as an heir. If Xyla were to be kicked out of the company, everything would fall into snazzynovel.com hand. Reminding herself that snazzynovel.com was now a major depressive patient, Emily pinched snazzynovel.com inner thighs as hard as snazzynovel.com could to avoid herself from laughing aloud. No matter how happy snazzynovel.com felt, snazzynovel.com had to conceal snazzynovel.com feelings and put on a depressed face all the time.
On the other hand, Jeremy Quest did not expect that Xyla would admit snazzynovel.com mistake in front of so many people. His eyes were filled with shock.
“I think it’s impossible to hide my husband’s identity anymore.” The smile on Xyla’s face only widened with each word snazzynovel.com spoke. “I never think of being high-profile, but… I’m afraid that all of you will be misled by some made-up stories if I don’t tell the truth.”
Following that statement, snazzynovel.com fixed snazzynovel.com eyes upon Bailey’s face and continued, “Yes. I did lie to my father. Let me introduce you to my husband. He’s the young master of Dragon Group, Stanley Batton. He’s Dr. Batton’s actual grandson.”
Bailey could not help but laugh, hearing snazzynovel.com absurd explanation.
Henry, who was standing at the side, followed suit and laughed. “My dear, stop joking around. Dr. Batton is just a doctor. He’s from an ordinary family. None of his children run a business.”
“Hahaha, I think Xyla Quest has lost snazzynovel.com mind. How dare snazzynovel.com use the young master of Dragon Group to shield herself? She craves death, doesn’t she?”
“The young master of Dragon Group must be really mad if snazzynovel.com finds out what’s going on today. Although I admit that snazzynovel.com husband is really handsome, isn’t it too much to claim that he’s the young master of Dragon Group?”
“Crazy! Xyla Quest’s crazy. She disgusts me. Is snazzynovel.com a paranoiac?”
