Immediately, Emily Quest slid her phone into her pocket. "I've already deleted the picture before I explain everything to you. There's no point snatching my phone now."

"Why did you do that?" Bailey Ronson's face was filled with fury.

"It's because I'm afraid that you won't keep your words. I told you that I'm not going to go against Xyla Quest anymore. I'm tired." Emily added, "I'm telling you because I'm afraid that you'll kick me out of the house. I don't have any other intentions."

With that out of the way, Emily secretly tapped the screen of her phone in her pocket.

Her phone stopped recording their conversation.

It was for back-up purposes. To have the sound recording in her phone, she would have evidence to excuse herself from the trouble in case things went bad.

Everything was going exactly according to her mother's plan.

"You better recover that picture right now and send it to me. Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!"

"I hope that you will keep the promise. If you insist on me to do that, I'll leave this house at all cost."

Emily's reply was totally out of Bailey's expectation. As a result, rage began to sear through Bailey again.

She pointed at Emily furiously. "Fine... What a good daughter-in-law of mine... You know very well that my daughter, who is your best friend, Mary Sullivan has been bullied by Xyla all this while. Now that you have the evidence in your phone but you refuse to give it to me..."

"I really can't." Following that statement, Emily headed to the main door and left the house. "I'm going to see Mary."

Bailey clenched both her fists tightly, all time mumbling to herself, "Emily, you're a backstabber..."

Then, she sank into the sofa, her fists still tightly clenched.

Though Emily refused to give her the picture or to cooperate with her, it did not really matter to her.

She could still expose the embarrassing news if she wanted to.

All she had to do was to look up Emily's call records and replace that hacker friend of hers...!

Since that guy loved money so much, he would definitely send her all the evidence and information about Stanley Batton as long as she was willing to pay him at a high price.

Xyla had brought so much trouble to her baby daughter. Undoubtedly, she had to make Xyla pay the price no matter what.

Once Emily had stepped out of the house, she strode towards the black BMW X5 parked in front of the house and got into the car.

Starting the car engine, she found the familiar phone number from the call records and dialed it right away. "If someone calls you and asks you to hand over the evidence about Xyla hiring some random guy to disguise her husband, just do as she said..."

"Alright... I get it." The man on the other end of the phone did not ask any further questions, his answer was simple and straightforward.

Delighted with her finalized plan, Emily sneered in satisfaction and threw her phone on the passenger seat.

She knew that Bailey was not going to give in that easily.

If she failed to obtain anything from her, Bailey would replace her own way to settle the problem. She would definitely check Emily's call records to replace her hacker friend.

Subsequently, she would buy the evidence from him.

She also knew that Bailey would discover this hacker in no time.

No matter how she thought about it, she could not deny that her mother's plan was totally perfect.

Not only would she be able to bring Xyla down, she would not have to do anything by herself either.

Even if something went wrong halfway, she would not be blamed or affected as well.

This was a very favorable deal indeed.

"Oh Xyla, poor Xyla... I believe that you'll get yourself into big trouble real soon, you better get yourself ready," Emily said to herself.

From what she had known about Bailey's character, she would definitely make a mountain out of a molehill about this matter if she really wanted to expose it.

She was certain that Bailey would not share the truth and evidence with their father only.

Bailey would probably make it known to the entire world.

By that time, Xyla's reputation would be utterly ruined for sure.

Quickly turning the car around, Emily found a cheerful song from the radio and listened to it as she pressed the pedal to the metal...
