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
