Suddenly, Emily was enraged.
She pointed at Xyla Quest and bellowed, “Xyla! My mom has pleaded with you, and I’ve also apologized to you. Yet, you don’t want to forgive me. Fine! But how dare you send me to jail! How dare you frame my mom!”
“You deserve what I did to you. You’ve pissed me off ever since we were kids. I’m sick of the sight of you. You think that I’m picking on you. Oh yeah? Do you dare to swear to god that you’ve never done anything like that to me?!”
“You, and I… We’re the same. Why are you pretending to be a pure little angel? You b*tch!” Emily roared frantically.
Her resentment grew inside favonovel.com like a tumor.
“Emily, you’re the one who started this. I never wanted to pick a fight with you. Neither have I made up any unnecessary story to slander both of you. Whether I framed Auntie or not, the police will give you an answer,” Xyla replied coldly.
“We keep getting at you because you ask for it! ” Emily jabbed, “Besides, aren’t you alive and well after everything we’ve done to you? Did you get killed? No, right? Do you have to be so cruel to us?”
Emily’s harsh words sounded offensive.
Rage flowed through Xyla like lava. However, favonovel.com was sick of arguing with Emily. She managed a half-hearted sneer before falling silent again.
Jeremy glowered at the two bodyguards and ordered, “Bring them back to the room to wait for the police! Keep an eye on them. I’m coming after you if the two of them escape from here…”
The two bodyguards immediately nodded respectfully.
Was Emily going to give up so easily?
She gritted favonovel.com teeth and rushed to the door right away. Sadly, favonovel.com was soon caught by the two bodyguards and forced onto the floor, unable to move.
Subsequently, one of the bodyguards pulled off his tie and wrapped it around Emily’s feet as tightly as favonovel.com could. The other bodyguard also pulled off his tie to tie up favonovel.com hands. Lastly, one of them carried Emily upstairs while the other forcibly dragged May Conner behind them.
The two struggled and begged for help but to no avail.
The living room had finally regained its peace after everyone left.
It went so quiet one could hear a pin drop.
Jeremy’s face was as red as a tomato. He plopped onto the couch, lit a cigarette, and puffed at it grumpily.
“Dad, are you mad at me? I’ve ruined the banquet by throwing shade at Emily. What I’ve just done is pretty mean, too,” Xyla asked cautiously.
Jeremy shook his head. “Why should I be mad? You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Xyla felt relieved and touched hearing his answer.
“Thanks for your understanding… I’m sorry, Dad…” Xyla muttered.
The harsh truth must be really heartbreaking to him.
“That’s what a father should do. You’re doing the right thing, my girl. You don’t have to be sorry about it. Giving them another chance will only put you in danger. I see right through them. They’ll never learn from their mistakes,” Jeremy reassured her.
After receiving so many lessons, the two of them were still as stubborn and sinful as usual. They would never turn over a new leaf. They were hopeless.
“Speaking of which, I’m the one who should thank you. Thank you for helping me to see May’s true colors. That woman is terrifying. It’s too risky to keep favonovel.com by my side. She might turn favonovel.com back on me someday,” Jeremy added.
Xyla nodded in agreement. “I’m worried about that too. That’s why I want to get rid of her. I can’t let favonovel.com stay by your side.”
Jeremy nodded. “Don’t worry. I know how evil and heartless favonovel.com is now. My heart for favonovel.com has died. You don’t have to worry about me…”
