Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)

Chapter 140

“I only managed to do a part of what you asked me to. The young madam got to some of them before I could,” Zack Cassidy said.

“Oh?” Stanley Batton raised his brows a little before taking another puff of his cigarette.

“About exposing May Conner for hitting Xyla Quest, the young madam did it before I could do as you instructed. Originally, Mr. Quest already had plans to get a divorce. Now that things had gone south, I am quite certain he would go ahead with the decision to get a divorce. Also, you asked me to get the police to punish Tom Sullivan for what happened. However, the young madam did it before I could,” Zack explained respectfully.

Whenever Xyla was mentioned, Zack felt nothing but respect for that woman.

Hearing this, Stanley smiled approvingly. He did not expect Xyla to avenge him secretly.

“Apart from that, I have already informed the Sullivan family that we are going to withdraw all our investments from their business just as you instructed,” Zack added.

“Alright…” Stanley murmured.

“I believe the Sullivan family will go through a tough period, with the investment withdrawals among other things,” Zack said before he showed Stanley the negative media about the Sullivan Food Group.

“Clearly, someone intentionally wanted to bring the Sullivan family down. Now, a huge tsunami has been created. The Sullivan family will need to put in a great deal of effort to get through this catastrophe. Even if they manage to pull through, they would still be greatly affected. I believe Tom Sullivan won’t get to keep his position as the heir of the family business,” Zack said firmly.

Stanley coldly scanned through the news article before he smiled slightly.

Xyla really was impressive.

She was, without a doubt, the smartest woman Stanley had ever met. No one else could compare.

“If the person behind all this were to be found out, I’m sure the Sullivan family won’t let him or her off the hook this easily,” Zack added.

“Don’t let the Sullivan family find out,” Stanley said after glancing at the phone screen and turning to look at Zack.

A look of surprise appeared on Zack’s face.

“Do you think the young madam did this?” Zack asked.

“Just do as I say,” Stanley said domineeringly.

“Yes!” Zack immediately nodded respectfully.

“Also, make sure none of the topics on the popular list is removed,” Stanley snorted coldly.

“Alright, I’ve got it,” Zack said.

“Oh, right. The old madam said there is something important she needs to discuss with you. She asked you to return home,” Zack said.

“I understand. Zack, get this cleaned up,” Stanley said before slowly unbuttoning his shirt. He then returned to his room to change into a black cotton sweater before walking out the door.

The door was closed behind him.

Peace had returned to the world.

Finally, Zack could relax a little.

After being occupied for an entire day and not having eaten anything, Zack was now famished.

Seeing that a lot of food was left behind, Zack quickly walked into the kitchen to get himself a bowl of rice. He then sat down at the spot where Stanley was before and prepared to eat.

Firstly, he used his chopsticks to reach for the stir-fried eggs with green pepper that Stanley had eaten the most among all the dishes.

As soon as he put it in his mouth, he could taste a sweetness filling his entire mouth.

Zack immediately spat everything in his mouth out into the rubbish bin.

How could this be sweet?

Even when five-star master chefs cooked stir-fried eggs with green pepper, Fifth Master would not even take a single bite. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

However, today, he had actually eaten this stuff. Zack found it hard to believe.

After that, Zack used his chopsticks to try out the stir-fried cauliflower.

How could it be sweet as well?

After spitting out the cauliflower, Zack quickly put the chopsticks down before touching his forehead in discomfort.
