“Even if he were to be released from prison, I would never entrust him with any responsibilities again.
What else is he capable of apart from causing a mess?!” Tony Sullivan shouted while he slammed his
chopsticks on the dining table. His body was shivering with anger.
Meanwhile, nobody else in the family had the courage to speak They all had a gloomy expression on
their faces.
“Dad, please don’t be upset. I believe Brother Sullivan will change his ways after this incident,” Emily
Quest said with trembling hands.
At first, Emily thought she could keep this a secret from the rest of the family. However, it ended up
being broadcasted in the media.
‘Xyla Quest must have done this too. It must have been her!’
Right then, Emily was truly afraid. It really did seem like Tom Sullivan would lose his position as the
family heir. If that were to happen, what would Emily do?
It was a series of misfortunate events!
Now, Emily’s parents were on the brink of getting divorced. If that happened, coupled with her husband
losing his position as heir, Emily’s status among her friends would certainly drop.
When the time came, Emily would also have no advantage in fighting for the Quest family’s inheritance.

“What does Tom’s poor behavior have anything to do with you? Julian, don’t be too kind. Stop blaming
everything on yourself! Your biggest mistake isn’t in containing the news. Instead, it was your choice to
work with Emily Quest to keep this from me!” Tony then glared at Emily.
Subconsciously, Emily took in a deep breath and did not dare say a word.
“Dad, I was wrong,” Julian said while he kept his head down.
“If you acknowledge your mistakes, put your heart into resolving the company’s crisis. Also, find a way
to get that useless piece of sh*t out of prison and clean up the mess he made. Him being in prison only
puts the Sullivan family’s name to shame,” Tony said.
“I know what to do, Dad. I’ll get things sorted out right away,” Julian said while he nodded respectfully.
Thereafter, Julian wheeled himself out of the room as quickly as he could.
When nobody could see his facial expression, a sly look appeared on his face.
‘Tom, you can only blame your wife for being dumb enough to count on me. Why would I help you keep
everything under control?’ Julian thought.
***
At the same time, another scene was taking place in a six-level castle-like villa.
In a brightly lit living room, Sharon Lindt wore a set of black skin-tight homey clothes while she sat on
top of a red yoga mat. She was practicing yoga with the sound of music in the background.
It felt as if time had stopped for her.
Sharon had beautiful curves on her body, with her chest and bum prominently sticking out from her
body. There wasn’t an ounce of fat on her body. In fact, she did not look like someone who had given
birth to children at all.
Once Stanley Batton came out of the lift, he walked directly over to Sharon.
“You asked Zack Cassidy to tell me to come home because you were looking for me. What is it?”
Stanley asked.
Last night, when Zack told Stanley his mother had something important to talk to him about, Stanley
had immediately driven home.
When he arrived home, a maid told him that the old woman had already slept. Hence, Stanley silently
returned to his room and played an entire night of games.
Hearing this, Sharon immediately turned off the music with a remote control before slowly standing up.
“Yeah, I wanted to talk to you after you came back. However, I accidentally fell asleep in the end. I’m
sorry, my dear son,” Sharon said.

“To be honest, I wanted to praise you. Good job! I’ve seen all the news on the internet. I know you were
behind all of it,” Sharon said before chuckling awkwardly.
“Not entirely. Most of it was done by your daughter-in-law. She was a few steps ahead in carrying out
most of those deeds,” Stanley said slowly.
“What? Isn’t my daughter-in-law too efficient? Oh, god. It’s another day for me to admire my daughter-
in-law,” Sharon said with a look of admiration in her eyes.
Her eyes seemed to glimmer from the reflection of sunlight. .
“Yeah,” Stanley uttered calmly.
“But doesn’t that make you a weakling? How could you let her beat you to it? Do you have
questionable capabilities?” Sharon asked with a look of disgust.
“You really are my mother,” Stanley said helplessly.
“Am I wrong? You can’t allow this to happen again, do you understand? You must think and act on
behalf of my daughter-in-law before anything happens. Don’t make my daughter-in-law go through so
much trouble,” Sharon added.
“Got it,” Stanley said.
