“Alright, Dad is going upstairs to rest. You should rest early too. Tom, it’s getting late. You should head
home soon,” Jeremy Quest said before standing up and heading upstairs.
When Xyla Quest saw him leaving, she could not help but feel her heart aching on his behalf. It must
have felt terrible to be betrayed by the person he trusted the most. It must have hurt even more to send
the person he loved to jail.
After Jeremy left, Xyla began heading upstairs as well. It did not seem like she even wanted to speak to
Tom Sullivan.
Alas, Xyla had seen through all of Tom’s tricks. He was an absolute jerk who did not even deserve to
be looked at. However, just as Xyla arrived at the staircase, Tom immediately ran after her. He took one
step further tip the stairs to stand in her way.
After a second, he wrapped his hands tightly around her shoulders.
“I was very worried about you after what happened to Imperial Prime. When I saw how well you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthandled the situation, I felt very happy for you. Why didn’t you reply to my messages? I was concerned
about you,” Tom said.
Xyla felt disgusted by his touch and words of concern.
The things she liked the most in the past had become something she now hated the most.
Xyla frowned slightly before taking a step back and pushing Tom’s hand away.
“Brother-in-law, please don’t touch me. I didn’t reply you because I didn’t want to.” Xyla behaved coldly,
just as she usually did.
“Xyla, l was extremely worried about you. Must you hurt me like this?” Tom asked.
Tom was deeply hurt by Xyla’s attitude toward him. Whenever they met each other, Tom felt like a
failure. However, the more distant she behaved around him, the more he fell for her and wanted to
have his way with her.
Tom wanted Xyla so much that he could not resist his urges.
“Do you think it’s appropriate for you to treat a married woman like this, Brother-in-law?” Xyla asked.
“Xyla, must you be like this?” The words ‘brother-in-law’ and ‘married woman’ sounded annoying to
Tom.
“How do you want me to behave?” Xyla asked.
“I heard from Emily that the person you married is very ugly. Why are you with a man like that? Why
would you torture yourself in such a way? I advise that you reconsider your decision,” Tom said.
“Oh.” Xyla pushed him away and continued to walk upstairs. She was like a rare and expensive flower
in the mountains which could only ever be observed from afar but never touched.
However, Tom still ran after her and hugged her tightly from behind. He was not pressing his chin down
on her shoulder.
“Xyla, file for divorce. I will look after you after you get divorced…” Tom whispered next to her ears.
“You are a man who is about to get married. Don’t you think it’s funny when you said that?” Xyla felt
utterly disgusted while she tried to push his hand away but failed to do so.
“Xyla… Xyla… Listen to me. Even if I get married, we can still stay in touch. Let’s try doing that Once
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe gives birth, we’ll find a way to get divorced. Give me a few more years. Alright? Please give me
another chance. I know I was wrong before. To be honest, I never wanted to get married. My parents
forced me to do it. You know I can’t refuse,” Tom continued to speak.
Xyla felt even more disgusted with Tom after hearing what he had said.
How could he be this shameless?
Were humans even capable of being this deceitful?
How blind was she in the past to not have realized this about Tom?
“Tom Sullivan, I am warning you. Let go of me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for what I am about to do to
you,” Xyla said.
“Xyla, please give me a chance, eh? I promise I will never betray you again!” Tom held onto Xyla tightly
while he tried to kiss her earlobe with open lips.
Tom was madly in love with Xyla right now! He must have her! He did not care how difficult it was going
to be!
