Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 92

After glancing at the headline about Emily Quest, Xyla Quest opened the news article related to Imperial Prime.

At the top of the page, there was an official press statement from the Quest family and documents of proof from the police.

In summary, the negative media related to Imperial Prime was a false rumor somebody had intentionally created. After that, they would be taking legal action against the criminal. Despite the rumors, units in Imperial Prime were sold out yesterday. It only took a total of six days.

The Quest family did not announce the person who came up with the rumor. The police documents did not reveal the individual either.

Xyla knew that this was something her father wanted. If word got out that something like this happened in the Quest family, they would become the laughing stock of this world.

Therefore, Xyla could understand why all of this had to be done.

Since her father had decided to end this episode here, Xyla would respect his decision.

Many internet users were expressing their anger in the comment section below the post about the Quest family.

“Why is the Quest family protecting this criminal? Who the heck is this dog? I feel sorry for the Quest family.”

“I hope the person who created this rumor gets cancer. I also hope that he lives for a long time so he can suffer from the illness.”

“According to what I know about Imperial Prime’s sales, the eldest daughter of the Quest family, Xyla Quest, single-handedly took care of the entire ordeal. Why is this woman so amazing? Six days! That has never happened before in the country!”

“Although they are both from the Quest family, why are Xyla Quest and Emily Quest entirely different? The former is always doing great things while the latter only knows how to mess things up.”

When Xyla read through these hateful comments, she instantly stopped feeling sleepy.

After browsing through the page for a long while, Xyla finally closed the article. Right then, she saw the hashtag ‘#ImperialPrimeSoldOut#’ on the third spot among the most popular topics. In fact, many people were clicking on the article.

Since Xyla already knew what the article contained, she exited from Weibo and did not bother reading the news articles.

“Beep beep beep—”

At that moment, Xyla received a call from Lana Harrison.

She immediately picked up.

“Emily Quest has put all the blame on herself. As for May Conner, since she refused to admit anything and there is no proof of her involvement, nothing can be done to her. Since Emily is a pregnant lady, she would most probably receive punishment in the form of community service,” Lana Harrison said seriously.

Since Xyla had expected things to turn out this way, she did not feel too surprised.

“Pregnant lady?” Xyla snorted coldly with a frown on her face.

“Yeah. I’m sure you understand why. However, there is something I find odd.” Lana suddenly lowered her voice seriously.

“What is it?” Xyla asked curiously. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“I heard that someone made sure the duo would not be released anytime soon…” Lana said.

“What?” Xyla was in a state of disbelief when she heard what Lana said.

Apart from her father, Xyla could not think of anyone else who would do that.

Xyla did not expect her father to do such a thing. After all, the wedding was just around the corner. If the police did not release Emily and her mother soon, the two would freak out.

“Is it my father who did it?” Xyla smiled a little and asked.

“I heard it’s someone influential. My husband won’t tell me who exactly that person is. In fact, that person insisted no keeping the duo locked in there until eleven o’clock on the wedding day! The person even asked the prison to inform the public that they would be released a day before the wedding,” Lana added.

Xyla was greatly shocked now.

An influential person? Apart from her father, who else did Emily and her mother get into trouble with?

In fact, informing the public that Emily would be released a day before her wedding was clearly a tactic to prevent the Sullivan family from following through with the wedding.

Moreover, if the wedding were to take place as agreed, and if the time was not changed, Emily and her mother would not have sufficient time to lick their wounds once they were released on the

wedding day.

That was because Emily would have to attend the wedding at noon. How could she make it in time if she only had an hour?

How badly did this person hate Emily and her mother? It was a dreadful prank.

If this was how things were going, Xyla believed that her father was not behind the entire scheme. Who could it be?
