Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 586

She could not believe she just risked her life to hold on to her current position as Tom Sullivan's wife.

Jeremy Quest, Bailey Ronson, and May Conner were sitting beside her bed. When they saw Emily open her eyes, the three of them rose to their feet simultaneously. Bailey deliberately put on a sorrowful face as she held Emily Quest's hand. "Silly girl, why did you slit your wrist? You should've told us if something is bothering you!"

Jeremy's face went sour. He could feel the number of wrinkles on his forehead increase. "Are you trying to scare your mother and me to death?"

Tears raced down May's cheeks. Her eyes and nose turned red. "Silly kid, please don't do this to me anymore... You're going to give me a heart attack."

Unlike Bailey's deceitful acting, May was really worried about Emily.

Her heart broke into pieces at the sight of her weak, ashen daughter.

Trying all her might, Emily forced herself to sound as miserable as she could. "I just feel hopeless. What should I do if the Sullivan family is finished? I don't want my in-laws to end up that way... I can't bear to see my husband racking his brain day and night because of these problems.

"I'm married to Tom Sullivan. If the Sullivan family is good, I'm good. If they're in trouble, I'm in trouble as well." Emily tried to squeeze out a tear.

"That doesn't mean you should kill yourself, right? Can't you think of other solutions?" Jeremy's reply was straightforward. "You're trying to piss me off, aren't you?"

May immediately clasped Jeremy's wrist. "Enough, honey. She wouldn't have done that if she had a choice. She went through all these because she loves Tom. Isn't that what love is all about? We all share weal and woe with our beloved."

"I think Emily's condition will never get better if Tom's emotions are unstable. The only way to help stabilize Tom's emotions is for Sullivan Food Group to get through the crisis." May made full use of this opportunity to assist the two of them.

Jeremy sighed helplessly.

He was distressed indeed as he looked at his daughter.

However, he was smoldered with resentment whenever he reminded himself of what Bailey had done to Xyla.

Noticing the sadness reflected in Jeremy's eyes, the three women were certain that they were on the cusp of victory.

This was especially true for Bailey and Emily. Their hopes soared momentarily.

"I can't compromise every time she tries to commit suicide. I can't just ignore Xyla's feelings every single time." Following that statement, Jeremy turned around and headed straight to the door. He was resolute and unswerving.

The three of them were shocked by Jeremy's reaction.

Jeremy bumped into Emily's psychiatrist as soon as he opened the door. He looked at the doctor, his eyes only expressed sincerity as he spoke his next line. "Keep an eye on my daughter for the next few days. Find a way to put her to sleep if you think that her mood is unstable..."

Though he was concerned about his second daughter, he could not ask his eldest daughter to compromise everytime.

Both of his daughters' thoughts and feelings were equally important.

The Sullivan family had hurt his eldest daughter again and again. The crisis faced by their company was retribution for their crimes. He must teach them a lesson this time!

If he gave in everytime Emily did this, how would Xyla feel?

"No problem, President Quest," The doctor said.

Jeremy nodded in response before shifting his gaze to May. "You better not bother Xyla either, or I'll hate you very much."

With that out of the way, Jeremy turned around and marched out of the ward.

The doctor immediately followed after him, intending to escort him to the lobby.
