“You don’t have to apologize to me. I will never forgive you,” Jeremy Quest said mercilessly as he glared coldly at Emily Quest, who was kneeling in front of him.
How long had it been since she came out of prison? Wasn’t it too late for her to think of apologizing to him now?
Did she even remotely seem apologetic?
“Dad, I’m already kneeling in front of you. Please forgive me,” Emily tried to force tears out of her eyes.
After that, she made herself appear pitiful.
“I was young and dumb. That’s why I did those things to my elder sister. I promise I will never do it again. Dad, please. I’m begging you. Forgive Mom and me. Mom really was innocent. I wanted to come home and apologize to you a long time ago. However, you know that a lot has happened to the Sullivan family. I really couldn’t find the time. Now, I’m already in a horrible state. If you don’t forgive me, I’ll feel even worse. Are you really willing to put me through that?” Emily stammered.
Who could possibly be in a worse state than her right now?
Emily worked so hard to make the wedding between her and Tom possible. At first, she thought it would bring her endless glory. However, news of her creating a rumor about her family’s property development was exposed on her wedding day.
After that, the factory managed by Tom Sullivan was also affected by negative media. Closely after that, Tom was imprisoned for a month for hiring people to attack someone. Emily had to spend the night of her wedding alone. It felt as if she were a widow.
Emily’s worst nightmares all happened on the day of her wedding. A grand wedding had turned out to be a grand joke.
Up until now, the negative news about Emily and Tom was still on Weibo. Meanwhile, internet users had not stopped cyberbullying them. Emily felt as if she would soon go insane.
“Get out. I don’t want to see you again!” Jeremy’s facial expression grew increasingly cold.
Whenever Jeremy saw Emily’s face, he would think of the terrible mistakes she had made. For her own benefit, she was willing to put the entire Quest family in a risky position. Emily was unforgivable.
They were both aware that Jeremy was not going to forgive them this time.
“Mom, what do you think we should do? Dad really seems determined not to forgive us. If this goes on, you and Dad will really end up getting a divorce,” Emily said frantically as she held May’s hand.
“This is all Xyla Quest’s fault. I won’t let her off the hook! I want her reputation to be ruined just like mine! My father-in-law has already begun investigating what the Sullivan family has been going through recently. I believe the investigations will point us to Xyla very soon. By then, my father-in-law won’t let Xyla off the hook either. However, I’m not going to silently wait for him to punish Xyla. I will use my own ways to defeat her!” Emily uttered angrily with her fists clenched tightly.
“I support you, Emily. I think the method you told me before will work for sure. Besides, nobody will realize what happens, and nothing could possibly go wrong. We’ll find the opportunity to do it to Xyla,” May said through gritted teeth.
May wished she could kill Xyla right then.
“Once Brother Sullivan is released from prison, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to do so. However, the most important thing right now is to make Dad forgive us, especially you. You mustn’t agree to get a divorce with Dad,” Emily snorted coldly.
