Chapter 25
Emily Quest subconsciously shivered before getting down on her knees. "Dad, I'm sorry... I acted without thinking... I..."
"That's it! I don't want to hear your explanation any further!" Jeremy Quest had had enough.
Thanks to his daughter, Emily, Jeremy was thoroughly embarrassed in front of the Sullivan family. Now, Emily even had thoughts of killing her elder sister. "Xyla, how do you wish to punish this animal?" Jeremy asked.
"Dad, you decide. I'm fine with whatever you choose to do," Xyla answered.
Jeremy immediately turned around and shouted into the door. "Somebody, come here!"
Not having healed from her whip injuries, Emily trembled even more fervently when she heard Jeremy summoning someone from the house.
She immediately hugged Jeremy's thigh and pleaded for her life. "Dad, please forgive me. I promise I won't do this again."
"Don't worry, I'm not going to whip you this time," Jeremy said.
Hearing this, Emily immediately felt more relaxed.
However, before she could fully relax, Jeremy began to speak, "I will get someone to beat you with a cane. After that, you will be locked in the basement for a month. Also, I am going to take the 5% shares of the Quest family's business away from you!"
Initially, Jeremy's daughters each owned 5% of the Quest family business' shares. That was because he wanted to treat his daughters fairly.
However, ever since Emily started behaving like a brat, he found it increasingly difficult to be fair.
Today, Emily had thoroughly embarrassed Jeremy in front of the Sullivan family!
Hearing this, Emily was dumbfounded. He hugged Jeremy's leg and shook her head. "No... Dad, you can't do this to me. You can't. I'm your daughter." At first, Jeremy never had intentions to take the shares away from Emily. However, he was doing it now.
Emily could clearly sense how much Jeremy hated her now.
In the past, he would never treat her this harshly no matter how angry he became.
In fact, Emily sensed that she might lose everything. Not only would she lose Tom Sullivan, but she would also lose all her status in the Quest family. Xyla had returned to exact revenge on her! Xyla wanted to make Emily lose everything!
Now, Xyla had achieved her objective! She had done it!
Emily felt extremely unhappy about it.
Right then, May Conner was equally panicked. She immediately walked up to Jeremy and held his hand. “Husband, the kid is still young. Please forgive her."
"Tom, let's go," Tony Sullivan looked disgustedly at May and Emily before turning around and walking away.
Tom Sullivan and Bailey Ronson ran after him.
Meanwhile, Jeremychose to ignore whatever May said. There was a cold expression on his face.
Very soon, two bodyguards dressed in tuxedos walked up to Jeremy respectfully and asked in unison, "Master, what can we do for you?"
"Take this evil creature to the basement and beat her with a cane fifty times. Keep her locked in there for a month and make sure nobody goes near her!" Jeremy had lost his rationality due to the anger he felt. "No, Dad... Dad, my old injuries have not recovered yet. If I'm beaten again, I will surely die," Emily pleaded loudly.
Right then, the Sullivan family's black Benz-S600 passed by.
Seeing this, Emily immediately got up from the ground and spread her arms while she stood in front of the car, blocking the way. "Brother Sullivan, save me... You can't just leave me to die here..." She shouted frantically at Tom, who was in the driver's seat.
