Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1154

The temperature in the Quest family’s house was very low. As soon as Xyla Quest walked through the door, she felt the chilly air against her face.

During a hot summer day, this felt very comfortable.

At this moment, Jeremy Quest was watching the television on the couch with his head lowered. He was wearing black silk loungewear, and his hair was trimmed in an extremely short fashion. It made him look clean and relaxed.

After changing into slippers, Xyla quickly walked over to Jeremy and hugged him. “Dad… You’re finally back. I have missed you so much.”

When Jeremy heard this, he immediately smiled and patted Xyla softly on her shoulder. “I missed you too, Xyla.

“Come here, baby girl, let me have a good look at you…” While speaking, Jeremy gently pushed Xyla away and carefully examined her face.

Suddenly, his eyes filled with a look of approval. “Hmm… Xyla, you look a lot better recently…”

From the way Jeremy looked, Xyla could tell that he had thoroughly moved on from the grief of May Conner and Emily Quest’s deaths…

Xyla felt immensely relieved.

She affectionately held his hand. “Dad… I’m really happy to see that you’re feeling better now.”

“Yeah… Sorry for making you worry back then, Xyla.” Jeremy said.

Xyla immediately shook her head. “It’s nothing. As your daughter, it’s only right that I worry about you.

Jeremy’s smile gradually widened. “I see that you’ve managed Quest Group very well lately. Moreover, you’re also thriving in your own business. I’m very happy now.

“My Xyla is really all grown up. She’s achieved so much.” With that, Jeremy lifted his hand and gently ruffled Xyla’s hair. “I’m getting old now, and I don’t want to work so hard anymore…

“From today on, I’m prepared to transfer all my shares in Quest Group to you. I want to retire…” Jeremy added.
