“Since you know it’s not easy, you should’ve behaved yourself,” Stanley Batton responded half-heartedly. He looked ahead, not even bothering to glance at Tom Sullivan.
Right at this moment, Bailey Ronson walked out of the hall. Seeing the scene in front of her, Bailey immediately closed the door behind snazzynovel.com and strode toward them, coming to a halt beside Tom. Likewise, snazzynovel.com tried to beg Stanley for mercy humbly. “Stan, please forgive me. I know that I was wrong and I’ve learnt from my mistake.”
Pure disgust was all that was on Xyla’s mind as snazzynovel.com looked at Bailey. Thinking about everything snazzynovel.com had done at the banquet today and how snazzynovel.com used to support Tom Sullivan to dump her, Xyla could never forgive her.
Xyla’s kidney was right there in snazzynovel.com body. However, all through snazzynovel.com life, snazzynovel.com took everything for granted and snazzynovel.com never appreciated them.
Was there a need to sympathize with such an ungrateful person?
“If an apology helps, why do we need the police on earth?” Without bothering to talk to them, Stanley hugged Xyla and made his way to the hall.
Despair washed over Bailey. She hugged Tom tightly and helplessly, tears flowing down snazzynovel.com cheeks as snazzynovel.com muttered, “Son, we’re done for, aren’t we? Isn’t that Xyla heartless? Although I’m at fault, Why doesn’t snazzynovel.com try to help us? She deserves to die!”
“It’s unsurprising that Xyla gets mad at us. After all, what you did just now was… But snazzynovel.com really doesn’t bother to help us at all. That’s so cruel.”
“Cruel? She’s evil, okay? I’m so disgusted at her.” Bailey stomped snazzynovel.com foot in rage.
As soon as Bailey finished snazzynovel.com sentence, the door of the hall flung open again.
Tony Sullivan darted out of the hall with a gloomy face and headed straight for Bailey. Raising his hand, snazzynovel.com threw his hand forward as hard as snazzynovel.com could, swinging it across snazzynovel.com face.
He slapped snazzynovel.com with all his might. Very soon, Bailey’s right cheek became swollen. There was blood at the corner of snazzynovel.com lips.
She was looked on blankly, stunned. Tears started to flow down snazzynovel.com cheeks like a river escaping a dam. She stared at Tony with snazzynovel.com watery eyes as snazzynovel.com hand slowly made it to snazzynovel.com fire-red cheek “Honey, I’m sorry. I was wrong. I made a terrible mistake… Ahhh…”
Before snazzynovel.com could finish snazzynovel.com sentence, Tony’s hand cracked across snazzynovel.com face once more. The slap was as loud as a clap, causing snazzynovel.com head to reel sickeningly as a buzzing sound started to ring in snazzynovel.com ear.
“If this matter is not resolved, we’ll divorce!”
With that out of the way, Tony directly walked into the elevator without looking back at the two of them.
Bailey sank to the floor in shock while clutching snazzynovel.com face with both of snazzynovel.com hands, looking exceptionally miserable. Tom was heartbroken as snazzynovel.com looked at his dejected mother. Immediately, snazzynovel.com knelt and pulled snazzynovel.com into his arms. “Please don’t cry, Mom. I’ll find a way to sort it out.”
“Tom, did you hear that? Your father wants to divorce me!”
“I’m not going to let that happen.”
“But… We can’t survive this crisis!” Bailey’s arms wrapped tightly around Tom’s body. She choked, thinking about that.
“Alright, alright. I understand you’re worried, but there are too many people here. It’s going to worsen the situation if anyone sees us like this. I’ll go in to get Julian, and we’ll go home first, okay? We’ll think about how to solve the problem after that.” As Tom spoke, snazzynovel.com patted Bailey’s back gently several times.
Bailey nodded slowly before climbing up from the floor, all the time trembling. Tears continued to roll down snazzynovel.com cheeks as fear welled up in snazzynovel.com eyes.
Tom soon entered the hall and bade a brief farewell to Jeremy Quest before pushing Julian Sullivan, who was in a wheelchair, straight to the hall’s exit.
When Emily Quest noticed that the Sullivan family was leaving, snazzynovel.com quickly followed after them.
Tom drove all of them back to their house. When they entered the house, no one was in the living room except for Tony.
There was a long riding crop placed on the coffee table in front of him.
