Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 554

If Bailey Ronson hadn't spewed those nonsensical things, the Sullivan family wouldn't have gotten into so much trouble.

What if all the banks stopped providing the Sullivan family with loans in the future? What would they do?

When Bailey saw how upset Tony Sullivan seemed, she didn't dare to say a word. In fact, she was even careful not to breathe too loudly. Everyone else around him behaved the same way.

After the performances on the stage ended, Jeremy Quest held May Conner's hand and walked onto the stage.

He was preparing to give a speech.

Meanwhile, the people who surrounded Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton quickly returned to their seats and looked at the stage.

After Jeremy had thanked a bunch of people involved, it was now time for the donation drive.

Guests got ready with their enlarged copies of cheques before going on stage one after another.

Once the other guests were done with their donations, Stanley held Xyla's hand and walked up to Jeremy and May. He took a golden card out from his pocket before handing it over to Jeremy. "Xyla and I have decided to donate 300 million dollars. This card doesn't have a passcode."

When everyone heard this, they were shocked.

Xyla, Jeremy, and May felt equally shocked on stage.

None of them expected Stanley and Xyla to donate this much.

Among them, Xyla was the one who was most shocked because she and Stanley had already discussed this the night before, and they had agreed to each donates five million dollars. In total, they would have donated ten million dollars.

However, Stanley didn't tell Xyla about his plan to donate 300 million dollars.

Suddenly, everyone began clapping.

The entire ballroom was filled with the sound of applause.

"Stanley and Xyla already appear exquisite. I can't believe they are also such kind people. It's amazing that they are actually donating 300 million dollars just like that."

"Exactly. They really are a wonderful couple. Indeed, people from Dragon Group are outstanding."

"President Quest is so lucky to have a rich daughter and son-in-law like that. I'm so envious that I'm about to cry."

The sound of people applauding off stage made Jeremy feel even prouder. When he looked at Stanley and Xyla, his eyes appeared unusually gentle.

That was because the two of them had made Jeremy incredibly proud today.

Jeremy patted Stanley's shoulder affectionately. "Stan, I would like to thank you on behalf of the sick children. You really are a wonderful son-in-law," he said.

Stanley smiled a little. "You're most welcome. This is what I'm supposed to do anyway. My parents have taught me as a kid that I must contribute to society with the money I've earned." Stanley's words brought him another round of applause from the folks off stage, and this went on for an extended period.

All the women present, who already looked up to Xyla, felt even more envious of her now. In fact, they also admired the handsome man next to her much more than they did before.

After that, Jeremy held Stanley and Xyla's hands before walking up to the microphone.

Although May was extremely unhappy on the inside, she still smiled and stood next to Stanley.

With Stanley's presence, everyone was bound to become a side character while Xyla stood in the spotlight.

Xyla was destined to outshine everyone else.

"I would like to thank Stanley Batton in front of everyone today. Also, I would like to thank all my friends who have donated today. Every dollar you have donated will be put to good use, and we will make sure the children in need are taken care of with your donations. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

"Because of everyone here tonight, our charity fundraiser has been extremely successful. Up next, dinner will be served. I hope none of you will leave yet... Remain seated, and let's have a feast together." With that, Jeremy held Xyla and Stanley's hands before walking off the stage together.

Xyla kept a joyful smile on her face the entire time.
