“No, your father is well now and will be back home in a little while,” Sharon Lindt said.

“You really are having a good time… Always leaving my dad behind at Grandpa’s, free as a bird,” Josh

Batton said.

“Nothing will happen to him. Your grandfather is such a good doctor. Besides, it’s not like I’m

intentionally staying away from him. I have my problems to deal with here, don’t I? Can’t you see I’m

trying to keep an eye on your big brother and Xyla Quest?” Sharon asked.

The smile on Josh’s face disappeared at the mention of Xyla’s name, and the light in his eyes faded.

The disappointed look on his face was so fleeting that no one noticed.

“I told you. You don’t have to worry about my life,” Stanley Batton said.

“Should I not worry just because you tell me not to? I am worried about you anyway. What can you do

about it?” Sharon said.

Stanley pinched his nose bridge in frustration and didn‘t say anything.

After talking to Stanley, Sharon focused on Josh. “And you, Josh, when are you going to find a girl?”

Josh laughed and said, “I, for one, am in no hurry. Wait for another two years.”

The girl he wanted to be with the most was not destined for him. Hence, there was no one else he

wanted to fall in love with.

“At your age, it’s the best time to fall in love. You get to date for a few years, get married, and have

kids. Isn’t that great?” Sharon said.

Sharon let out a long, frustrated sigh and added, “You look so good. Wouldn’t it be a waste for you not

to date around? With such a good-looking face, you still behave like a monk. What’s the point?” Sharon

added.

“I just recalled that there’s something] need to attend to. I must get changed and leave. Big Brother,

you can stay here and chat with Mom,” Josh got up out of frustration and left.

Back in his room, the smile on Josh’s face was completely gone. The light in his eyes faded once

again. He squeezed his phone tightly and sat on the edge of his bed. Silently, he opened the photo

album and found a picture of him with Xyla at Chanel’s show.

They seemed so perfect for each other. Xyla looked very beautiful.

He couldn’t help but reach out and touch her face. “What must I do to let go of you completely so that

we can be good friends?”

For the first time in his life, Josh was in love with someone, but it was destined to end, bearing no fruit.

It was a terrible feeling.

Meanwhile, Tony Sullivan brought Bailey Ronson, Tom Sullivan, and Julian Sullivan with him to pay

their New Year visit at the Quest family’s place. They were followed by a driver with numerous gifts in

his hands.

Xyla was not surprised by their arrival. After the Sullivan family heard about the Dragon Group’s plan to

help the Quest family the other day, the Sullivan family would certainly not cut off ties with the Quest

family this easily. The Sullivan family was worried that, after the Quest family progressed quickly with

the Dragon Group’s help, the latter would refuse to help them.

Tom Sullivan kept his head down from the moment he walked through the door, making sure not to look

at anybody.

Every few steps, he would pinch himself with his thumbs. It seemed as if he was trying to distract

himself with the pain.

Xyla could tell that he was trying not to look at the women around him, and he was trying to keep his

attention away from women in general. She felt sorry for him. It looked like his family was completely

unaware of his situation. Just how long did he think he could keep it a secret?

However, it also felt good to see him this miserable.

Toot, toot…

The Sullivan family had just walked up to them and, before they could speak, Jeremy Quest’s phone

began to ring.

It was a call from the prison.

He immediately picked up. Soon, a police officer’s voice could be heard. “Hello, is this Mr. Quest? Your

daughter, Emily Quest, is about to die.”
