In the end, the man dressed in black directly raised Mary Sullivan above his head.Although Mary was naturally lean, the man dressed in black was tall and muscular. It was completely effortless for him to pick her up.Right then, it looked as if he was carrying a small chicken.A strong sense of insecurity instantly began to spread from Mary’s heart.She immediately started screaming. “Help… Help… Mmph…”However, after shouting twice, another man in black sealed her mouth up with black tape.Immediately after that, the man in black, who was holding her, mercilessly tossed her to the floor.Mary’s waist landed on the floor first. After that, her head did.Suddenly, Mary felt her mind going blank.Meanwhile, her legs seemed to have gone completely numb. She couldn’t move at all.Although Mary very much wanted to get up and run away, she couldn’t even move.“B*tch, how dare you use Miss Linda’s name to spread the news she shared with you… Are you mad?“Miss Linda told us to te
“You are on bad terms with Xyla Quest purely because of your own doing… With how you behave, I wouldn’t be nice to you if I were Xyla!” After saying that, Linda Jerome forcefully stepped on the back of Mary Sullivan’s hand with her heel.Intense pain spread through Mary’s hand, and she instantly broke into a cold sweat from the pain…Although Mary tried to struggle again, she didn’t have any energy left in her.She was petrified…She was afraid that she would die in Linda’s hands.Mary also felt very aggrieved.Back then, when the Sullivan family was powerful, even folks like the Jerome family would have to step aside.Would Linda have dared to bully Mary back then?Now that the Sullivan family was no longer powerful as it once was, everybody walked all over them.Hehe…If things were the way they were before, Mary would surely get someone to beat Linda to death if she were treated like this.But now, Mary couldn’t do anything even if Linda bullied her.If Mary did somethin
After quickly turning on the faucet, Mary Sullivan briefly cleaned herself up. After that, she fished around in her purse to look for something that could cover her face.However, she couldn’t find anything.In the end, she helplessly braced herself and walked out of the private room with her head down.On her way out, she walked past many people.Everyone who walked past her couldn’t resist glancing at her a few more times.By the time she arrived on the first floor, she had become the center of attention in the entire lobby.“Why is that woman covered in bruises? Could it be a case of domestic violence?”“Look at her. She’s all swollen up like a pig…”“Hang on… Isn’t that Mary Sullivan?”“It really does look like Mary Sullivan. Did she offend someone? She’s doing this all the time. Honestly, she brings shame to the Sullivan family!”Every word and sentence that Mary heard made her feel embarrassed.At this moment, she felt as if her pride was being trampled all over on the
Right after that, a large number of comments came into Xyla Quest’s sight—“At first, when I saw somebody’s face all swollen up like that in a picture, I still felt sorry for that person. But after seeing that the person is Mary Sullivan? Never mind…”“What else could have happened? I remember that this woman always gets herself into trouble. She’s an old witch. She must have asked for it.”“I would still be a little curious if other people were beaten up, but if it’s Mary, I won’t even need to guess to know that it must’ve been her fault.”“Although it’s very mean to say this, I still want to tell the person who beat Mary up that you did a good job.”“Tsk, tsk… She really brings a lot of shame to the Sullivan family… What did she do this time?”Back when Mary Sullivan did many bad things, she often made it onto the list of hot topics.Her reputation wasn’t good, to begin with…Hence, now, Xyla didn’t feel at all surprised by everyone’s comments.Xyla thought that the Sullivan
After sucking in a breath of cold air, Mary Sullivan quickly hung up the phone. Nervously, she turned on the car engine.After that, she grabbed the steering wheel with her trembling hands.She then stepped on the gas pedal and drove quickly away from the clinic in her black Porsche Cayenne.At this moment, Mary’s heart was already up to her throat…She knew that she was going to be in deep trouble.Mary wanted to run and hide, but she knew she couldn’t.She could avoid the trouble for a while, but she couldn’t avoid it forever.If she tried to hide, her father would undoubtedly be even more furious.When he eventually found her, he’d make her suffer even more.Mary knew her father very well. His rage wouldn’t subside just because she hid away for some time.Approximately half an hour later, Mary made it back to the Sullivan family’s house.The bruises on her face and body looked even worse than before.Her entire body looked even more like a pig now.In fact, she looked l
It hurt Mary Sullivan’s ego even more.Despite how Linda Jerome was Mary’s enemy, Mary’s father was teaching her a lesson in front of her enemy.Mary felt thoroughly humiliated, and she was also outraged.However, she could only keep her mouth shut. She didn’t dare to speak a word.“You b*stard! Didn’t I warn you not to cause any trouble, especially not Xyla Quest… Hmm?“Now, not only did you mess with Xyla, but you even messed with Linda. Have you gone mad?” Tony Sullivan started yelling coldly again.Julian Sullivan, who had remained silent all the while, couldn’t help but speak up. “Dad… I think Mary already knows that she’s wrong. Please forgive her.”Tom also started speaking. “Yeah… Dad, please forgive her.”After the two Sullivan brothers finished speaking, they looked at each other before shaking their heads helplessly.Mary didn’t only give Tony a headache, but they also gave the two of them headaches too.When Mary heard this, she instantly looked at Julian and Tom
“Ignore them. Drag her out and beat her up!” Tony Sullivan looked at the bodyguards coldly. His facial expression didn’t seem to relax at all.When Bailey Ronson heard this, she immediately hugged Mary Sullivan tightly and started crying profusely. “No, honey, honestly… I’m begging you.”Tony was in a fit of rage right now. It didn’t matter who was begging him for mercy…He already had feelings of resentment toward Bailey. As the Sullivan family’s situation worsened, the irritation in his heart grew.Although Bailey previously caused a massive mess by offending Stanley Batton, Tony chose to forgive her. However, he never really let go of the matter.Precisely because of this, Tony didn’t feel anything at all when Bailey cried.Soon three bodyguards walked up to Mary and Bailey to try to separate the two of them. They brought Mary outside.Julian Sullivan was disabled, and he was helpless to stop the bodyguards.Meanwhile, it was difficult for Tom Sullivan to stop three bodyguar
Everyone was browsing leisurely through the jewelry exhibition.Despite how shiny the jewelry and everyone was dressed up, none of them could compare to a fraction of Xyla Quest and Sharon Lindt’s brightness.The two of them were like shimmering beads. Wherever they went, light encapsulated them and made every object and person around them seem dim in comparison.They were both stunned by the jewelry that came into sight.Sharon, especially, was as happy as a child.She kept tugging Xyla along to look at everything around them. She wasn’t tired at all.Soon, a standalone glass cabinet attracted Sharon’s attention.There was a snake-shaped necklace in the cabinet.The necklace was engraved with plentiful diamonds. It looked unique as it rotated around a plastic mannequin’s neck.“This design looks so special…” Sharon’s eyes were glimmering as she looked at the necklace and complimented. Her eyes kept glowing.Xyla nodded. She thought it was alright.After that, Xyla’s gaze la
