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
However, Helen smiled unpleasantly. “You said that if you were the designer, you’d change the style of design. From the tone of your voice, you seemed to be… Quite knowledgeable about designing, aren’t you?“If it were you, what are you prepared to exhibit with? Why don’t you draw something for me and show me what’s good?” Helen added.Helen was very dissatisfied with Xyla Quest’s judgment.From her perspective, an amateur didn’t deserve to point out the flaws of her work as a professional jewelry designer.Helen knew Xyla, and she knew Xyla was the wife of Dragon Group’s president.Helen even knew that Xyla was the only daughter in the Quest family. Xyla’s capabilities exceeded her peers.However, Helen also knew that Xyla didn’t have any accomplishments in the field of jewelry design. Xyla also didn’t have any sources to prove that she was skilled in jewelry design.Hence, when being judged by an outsider like Xyla, Helen truly felt unhappy.Although Helen was running out of
After that, Xyla Quest looked down and prepared to draw.Although she wanted to keep a low profile at first, she suddenly wanted to teach Helen a lesson.However, Xyla didn’t say a single word. Instead, she chuckled nonchalantly.Soon, people began whispering amongst themselves in the crowd—“I’ve never heard about Xyla being involved in the field of jewelry design… It feels like she’s an amateur. Why would she risk embarrassing herself in front of Helen?”“Does this mean she thinks she can draw better than Helen? How is that possible?”“If I were her, I wouldn’t dare to draw these things in front of Helen. Helen is a god-like designer who has been designing jewelry for a few decades.”“To design necklaces with the snake element in a unique way, this style must naturally be used. Could Xyla be able to design something special?”Xyla heard everything that the people said.Although these were annoying to hear, she didn’t care…When Sharon Lindt heard these things, she instantly
Helen simply continued to cross her arms in front of her chest while admiring her design. She was looking for good things about her design.From her perspective, everyone was just over-reacting.‘What’s wrong with these people? Haven’t they seen a good design before?’ Helen couldn’t help but think.How could a girl born with a silver spoon in her mouth like Xyla Quest know anything about jewelry design?What good design could she possibly draw?If she knew about designing and could draw something decent, someone as famous as her would have long started her jewelry brand and entered the jewelry design industry, wouldn’t she?These people were simply exaggerating it.“D*mn… She’s excellent… I’m dumbfounded.”“I’ve just embarrassed myself. Why does Ms. Quest know everything? She managed to draw something good.”“That’s right… I’m feeling dizzy. This is significantly better than Helen’s design. She’s a hidden talent!”Everyone standing around to observe the commotion began discus
Sharon Lindt nodded repeatedly.“Why does Xyla’s style of design look so much like the internationally renowned jewelry designer, Sunny’s…”“I think it does too. Sunny is amazing, and she’s significantly more popular than Helen.”“Yeah, that person is also much more formidable than Helen. Not only is she formidable, but she’s also mysterious. Nobody has ever seen Sunny’s face until now.”“The most formidable thing about her is that she only works with a single brand each year for a single jewelry design. Every design of her jewelry is unique in the world.”“All the noble class women in the world admire Sunny countless times more than Helen…”“Could Xyla be Sunny?”“Why do I feel that their style is similar…”Everyone began talking amongst themselves once again.Although Xyla Quest heard what they said, she didn’t show any emotion in her eyes. She was as quiet as if she was merely an observer.However, Sharon couldn’t stay this calm. She wouldn’t have thought about this if the
