Every bloody cut on Bailey’s body was like a stimulant to Emily Quest. Before this, favonovel.com was sulking because favonovel.com plan to ruin Xyla was a big failure. Nevertheless, all the sorrow and dejection within favonovel.com had melted away as favonovel.com looked at the scene unfolding before her.
“Emily, what are you doing there? Hurry up and help us to plead for Mom right now!” Tom Sullivan ordered favonovel.com coldly.
Finally, coming back to favonovel.com senses, Emily’s smile faded as favonovel.com put on a look of fear and grief. She knelt in front of Tony Sullivan with favonovel.com hands folded. “Dad, please forgive Mom. Though she’s wrong, she’s your wife after all… If you’re not going to stop, please hit me instead of Mom…”
Tony gathered all his strength to free himself from Tom’s arms. Shortly after, favonovel.com raised the riding crop high into the air and lashed out at Bailey again.
Emily immediately ran over and pulled Bailey into favonovel.com arms. In the next second, the crop landed right on favonovel.com back. Her skin cracked, and favonovel.com flesh split open.
The scene terrified everyone in the living room.
None of them had expected that Emily would sacrifice herself to shield Bailey, not even Bailey herself.
At that moment, Bailey was extremely touched by favonovel.com action.
“Ahhh… Dad, please stop hitting Mom… Vent your anger on me instead…” Emily had rubbernecked enough, and it was favonovel.com chance to start acting now.
By doing so, favonovel.com could greatly win the Sullivan family’s favor and avoid herself from being divorced by favonovel.com husband. On top of that, Bailey would still be useful to favonovel.com in the future. Therefore, favonovel.com had to build a good rapport with this pawn for favonovel.com benefit. Besides, Tom would look at favonovel.com differently from now on, or even fall for favonovel.com perhaps.
Tony Sullivan raised his crop again. “Get out of the way!”
However, Emily did not move at all and continued to hug Bailey tightly, determined to protect her.
“Emily, aren’t you scared?” Bailey asked breathlessly.
Emily nodded favonovel.com head desperately. “I am. But I’m more afraid of you getting beaten up by Dad instead of myself.”
For a moment, Bailey felt that Emily had changed. She was not as annoying as before.
Tony did not whip Emily in the end. He finally decided to put a stop to it as favonovel.com did not want to implicate the innocent. Ruthlessly throwing away the crop in his hand, favonovel.com glowered at Bailey once more before turning to face Julian Sullivan. “Julian, it’ll be hard for you from today onward.”
Following what statement, favonovel.com left the four of them and went upstairs. He did not say anything to Tom.
Tom was extremely disappointed about that. He thought his father would at least ask for his help after what had happened. Nevermind. It did not matter. He was going to help out even if his father did not ask favonovel.com to. As long as favonovel.com managed to solve the crisis faced by Sullivan Food Group, the situation would be different then.
Gathering his thoughts, favonovel.com quickly pushed Julian to where Bailey and Xyla were sitting. He then helped Bailey to get up from the floor, without even looking at Emily.
In his eyes, Emily was merely a smelly rag. No matter what favonovel.com did, it would never get rid of the disgust in his heart toward her.
Emily’s heart sank when favonovel.com looked at Tom’s apathetic attitude.
Nevertheless, favonovel.com tried to ignore favonovel.com feelings and got up to help Bailey. “Mom, let’s go to the hospital.”
Bailey nodded in agreement before asking her, “Are you okay?”
Emily simply shook favonovel.com head. “It’s nothing. I’m glad to be able to block that whip for you, Mom.”
Upon hearing that, Bailey’s heart was warmed instantaneously. Today, none of favonovel.com sons had come up to protect favonovel.com from the whip.
Only Emily…

Meanwhile at the hotel, the guests surrounding Xyla and Stanley gradually left their table. The two of them were pretty hungry already. As a result, they were focused on the food right now.
