The temperature in the Quest family’s house was very low. As soon as Xyla Quest walked through the door, she felt the chilly air against her face.During a hot summer day, this felt very comfortable.At this moment, Jeremy Quest was watching the television on the couch with his head lowered. He was wearing black silk loungewear, and his hair was trimmed in an extremely short fashion. It made him look clean and relaxed.After changing into slippers, Xyla quickly walked over to Jeremy and hugged him. “Dad… You’re finally back. I have missed you so much.”When Jeremy heard this, he immediately smiled and patted Xyla softly on her shoulder. “I missed you too, Xyla.“Come here, baby girl, let me have a good look at you…” While speaking, Jeremy gently pushed Xyla away and carefully examined her face.Suddenly, his eyes filled with a look of approval. “Hmm… Xyla, you look a lot better recently…”From the way Jeremy looked, Xyla could tell that he had thoroughly moved on from the grief

Apart from a share transfer contract, there were also other messy documents inside.Without going through the contents in detail, Xyla directly picked up a black pen and signed her name on each document.When Jeremy saw that Xyla was signing the final document, he let out a long sigh of relief as if he had been released from a great burden. “Awesome… After fighting hard for the greater half of my life, I can finally retire now.”Xyla quickly signed her name on the last document before handing it over to Jeremy. “From now on, I’ll
The massive formation and loud voices made Xyla Quest appear even more shocked.After being stunned for a second, Xyla finally became calm again. She looked at everyone and smiled. “Thank you, everyone… Alright, let’s get back to work… I’ll buy everyone dinner tonight. Managers from each department, make the necessary arrangements and claim your expenses from me afterward…”“Thank you, President!” All the employees shouted in unison.“You’re welcome. I hope everyone will work hard with me from now on to make the company better… Alright, everyone, let’s all get back to work.” Even when she faced up to ten thousand employees, she was still calm and composed.After saying that, Xyla quickly walked into the elevator…Her bodyguards followed close behind her.She took her private elevator to the president’s office…After pushing through the door, the world inside still looked the same as before, clean and tidy.This office was twice as big as her original office.

When Xyla Quest smiled, her intricate face looked unusually gentle.She was fairy-like and beautiful.Knock, knock, knock—Right then, someone knocked on the door.Xyla slowly shifted her gaze to the door. There wasn’t any emotion in her eyes. “Please come in…”Soon, the door opened.A beautiful lady wearing a high-waisted skirt and a white shirt walked in…The beautiful lady had short, black hair. She also had very intricate makeup. There was a look of confidence in her eyes.This was Jeremy Quest’s assistant, Narda Verula.Narda’s capability was even more exceptional than her looks.
