In Tony’s opinion, the Sullivan family could not survive without Julian.
In the end, Tony was more confident in Julian than in Tom.
When Tom, Emily Quest, Bailey Ronson, and Mary Sullivan heard what Tony said, they were all shocked.
Emily and Tom, especially, had mixed feelings about it.
Everyone knew what it meant if Tony was asking Julian to return to the factory and take charge.
“But Dad, you know I don’t have great mobility. Don’t act out of spite. My little brother has never performed worse than me,” Julian said with a slight frown.
“I’m not discussing this with you right now. I am also not acting out of spite,” Tony said before he stomped his foot and stood up. He walked upstairs directly.
“Emily, help Tom upstairs to get his wound dressed,” Bailey said coldly to Emily.
Thereafter, Mary followed right behind Tony.
Carefully, Emily helped Tom to get up.
“Let’s go, Brother Sullivan. We’ll get back to our room first,” she said.
“Tom, once all this is done and dusted, I’ll persuade Dad for you. Don’t worry,” Julian said with a warm expression on his face. He seemed like the nicest person on earth.
“Thank you, big brother,” Tom said thankfully.
However, Tom knew that despite what his brother said, it would be difficult for him to return to his original position.
Tom was afraid that the position of heir was going to be far out of reach.
Even if his big brother did not have the intention to take over the family business, what about their father? Would their father forgive Tom just because Julian said a few words?
However, just as his father said, Xyla might not really have such capabilities. How did she get all that money?
Tom needed to slowly investigate everything.
Having noticed that Tom was taking what she said into consideration, Emily immediately smiled.
“Brother Sullivan, stop perceiving her as a kind person. She really doesn’t deserve you. Now, you might lose your position as the heir because of everything that happened. If Xyla was the one who did it, it means she wants you dead. She’s so evil. How could you continue liking her? I used to think Xyla still loved you despite her acts of revenge on us. However, I’ve figured it out at last. She doesn’t love you anymore. The only feeling she has toward you is hatred and a will for vengeance,” Emily said with a look of certainty for fear that Tom might not believe in her.
Deep inside, Emily knew that Xyla had no intention of fighting for Tom anymore. In fact, Xyla no longer cared about him.
Xyla’s true motive was to send Emily and Tom to hell.
Xyla wanted the two of them to pay the price for what they did to her in the past. There would be no salvation for them.
