Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 80

The video was displaying the surveillance footage of Imperial Prime's sales gallery.

In the chaotic scene which followed, a large group of people surrounded Xyla Quest while requesting refunds for their units.

The three people quietly watched the video while they wondered why Jeremy Quest wanted them to see this footage.

After a while, Xyla could be seen approaching a blonde girl in the video. However, nobody knew what they said to each other as there was no sound recorded in the surveillance footage. Closely thereafter, the woman was taken away by a group of security guards.

When Emily Quest and May Conner saw that happening, their pupils widened while their hearts began to pound. Emily's hands, which rested on her lap, were beginning to tremble slightly. What should Emily do? Did Xyla recognize the woman Emily had hired to cause a scene? What were they talking about? Had the woman spilled everything?

Was their father angry because of this? It was over! It was over for Emily!

May Conner was freaking out too as the rate of her heartbeat increased. Her mind had gone completely blank by now.

Right then, the video stopped playing.

Although the duo wanted to continue watching what happened next, they were unable to do so. Such uncertainty made them feel even more frightened. What happened next? What happened to the blonde woman? Had she told the truth? Or had she not told the truth and found a way to escape?

"What is this?" Tom Sullivan asked confusedly while he turned to look at Xyla and Jeremy one after the other.

"There's another voice recording in the recording folder. Open it," Jeremy said as he turned to face Emily without answering Tom.

Emily subconsciously gulped and quickly opened the voice recording. She did not even have the courage to look at Jeremy.

"I'm sorry, officer, it was my fault. I should not have done such a thing. I was just blinded by the money. Our manager told me that if I did it, I would be given fifty thousand dollars. This is a huge amount of money for a cleaner like me." The woman's voice was trembling.

Emily knew this was the woman in the surveillance footage.

"Emily Quest was the one who asked me to do this. She gave me ten thousand dollars and asked me to replace someone reliable to egg the crowd on for their refunds at Imperial Prime. Therefore, I approached a cleaner in our bar and told her I would back her up regardless of what happened. All she needed to do was to keep her mouth shut." This was a man's voice. He sounded like he was in a state of panic. The man was Emily's friend, who happened to be Lost Bar's owner, and was someone who had a lot of experience in managing social relationships. He had clearly promised Emily that nothing would go wrong In fact, Emily really did think nothing would go wrong.

After listening to all of this, Emily and May simultaneously gasped before they subconsciously held each other's hand tightly and looked to one another.

There was a look of fear in their eyes. Moreover, both their hands trembled slightly.

When Tom heard Emily's name, he immediately became angry. He never thought Emily would do such a thing.

In order to mess with Xyla, she was willing to put her family business on the line. Wasn't this woman a little too frightening?

As such, Tom became very fed up with Emily. If it were not for the fact that this woman was pregnant, and how his parents forced them to get married, he would have dumped this b*tch immediately.
