Chapter 1
Chapter 1
In a warm pink-colored room that seemed like a young teenage girl’s, Xyla Quest looked giddily at a man’s watch, occasionally glancing at the chandelier above her.
This was a worldwide limited edition watch she had carefully selected at a shopping mall.
She believed that Brother Sullivan would like it when he returned and saw it.
Beep. Beep. Beep.
Right then, Xyla received a video call from her little sister, Emily Quest. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Xyla Quest immediately picked up the call. Closely after that, Emily Quest’s proud chuckle could be heard over the phone.
“Dear Big Sister, did you really believe what Brother Sullivan has said about being busy today and therefore, could only return to the country tomorrow?”
“What do you mean?” Xyla Quest looked confused.
Emily Quest was barely wearing any clothes in the video call. She seemed annoyed, and her laughter was getting louder.
“Haha! You deserve to be cheated on for being so dumb. This is my gift to you. Keep your eyes wide open and have a good look, you pig.”
After approximately two minutes later, Xyla saw an intimate scene between Emily Quest and Tom Sullivan.
The video’s background showed that they were on the couch of Tom Sullivan’s living room.
Therefore, when he said he was busy today, he meant he was busy fooling around with Xyla’s younger stepsister from a different mother.
Since the age of eleven, Xyla had been in love with Tom Sullivan. She had loved this man for nearly seven years now. He was the man of her dreams and the youth she had fallen head over heels for.
Xyla had nearly given everything she had to Tom Sullivan. As such, she always thought that he would never betray her.
“Brother Sullivan, have you ever done this with Xyla Quest?” Emily Quest looked at the camera provocatively.
“Don’t disgust me. I feel like puking at the sight of that fat woman. Do you even think that’s possible?” Tom Sullivan said while he kissed Emily.
The man seemed so engrossed in the moment of intimacy that he did not notice the camera.
Xyla felt as if her heart was being carved at with a knife as each dirty scene unfolded before her one after another.
It felt painful even to breathe.
When Xyla Quest lifted her head, her gaze landed upon herself in the dressing mirror. It showed her reflection without any form of concealment.
Her body was full of fat, and she had freckles all over her face. She was no longer the most beautiful woman in Atlantis as she once was. Was she not a fat woman, after all?
However, Tom once said that she had only become like this because of him and that he would never dislike her.
Filled with rage, she immediately got into her sports car and sped toward Tom Sullivan’s villa without care.
When the couple on the couch saw her, they were stunned.
“Why are you here?” Tom Sullivan asked calmly. He seemed a little surprised.
After a moment, he calmly got up and slowly put on a bathrobe before walking up to Xyla.
“Since you’ve seen us, I’ll just come clean. Xyla Quest, let’s break up. I’ve fallen in love with your little sister.”
His words pierced through her heart like a knife.
Emily Quest snorted coldly before quickly putting on Tom Sullivan’s shirt. She then hugged her arm in a rampant manner. “To be honest, Brother Sullivan has been sick of you a long time ago. He just never knew how to say it to you.” Emily’s face was full of despise.
Emily Quest’s words like a cold bucket of water poured over her head. Xyla Quest immediately came to her senses.
Xyla should have already known this was true. Ever since she turned hideous, Tom had started treating her differently.
All along, she had foolishly convinced herself that he was too busy with work to care about their relationship.
“Yes. Even if you didn’t walk in on us, I have already planned to clear things up with you tomorrow. Xyla Quest, you don’t deserve me!
“Even my family wants me to get rid of you. Therefore, let’s end this on peaceful terms.
“My family would like you to take up the responsibility for the sake of the love we once had for each other.
“Tell your Dad that you don’t want to be with me anymore and that you would like a divorce.”
Tom Sullivan continued to speak harshly. He would rather die than stay with this fat woman for the rest of his life.
His words repeatedly pierced through her heart like a knife.
Back then, his mother was in dire need of a kidney donation.
Since Xyla loved Tom, she did not hesitate to donate her kidney to his mother.
After that, his mother had fully recovered, but Xyla’s condition worsened.
The surgery resulted in severe side effects on her body.
She began to grow fat rapidly. Freckles developed all over her face. From the most beautiful woman in Atlantis, Xyla became just another fat woman.
However, not only were they not remorseful, they even looked down upon her.
Even when Tom Sullivan was clearly the one who cheated on Xyla, he wanted her, the victim, to take up the responsibility.
They were truly evil and shameless.
At that moment, Xyla wished she could kill all of them.
“You and your family are evil. Don’t you know why and for whom I became like this?” Xyla Quest retorted while she raised her hand to slap his face.
However, before her palm landed on his face, Emily Quest had grabbed her hand and pushed her to the ground. Then, Emily stepped on Xyla’s hand mercilessly with her red high heels.
Emily repeatedly jabbed and twisted her heel on Xyla’s hand. “You have willingly donated your kidney. They didn’t force you to do it. Stop bringing that matter up to blackmail him emotionally!
“It’s your own body that has problems. Why are you blaming others for it? Many people have donated their kidneys, but they all end up fine. Why are you the only one with side effects?”
Just as Emily Quest finished her sentence, she jabbed her heel even deeper into Xyla’s hand. It ended up piercing through Xyla’s flesh as blood began to seep out from the open wound and splatter all over the floor.
With the pain spreading all over her body, Xyla felt as if she was about to pass out. However, the physical pain was not even close to the pain she felt in her heart.
Xyla Quest struggled to get free and tried to attack in return.
However, Tom Sullivan would not allow her to do so. He raised his foot and stepped on her abdomen. “Stop messing around, Xyla…”
Xyla did not expect Tom Sullivan to help Emily Quest instead of stopping her from bullying Xyla.
This couple was terrifyingly evil.
“Oops, Xyla Quest, I never thought that you would one day be treated like a piece of sh*t and be stepped on like this.”
As soon as Emily Quest finished speaking, she smiled slyly at Tom Sullivan. “Brother Sullivan, shall we continue?”
“Alright…” Tom Sullivan smiled in return.
“However, before that, can we throw this woman out? She’s an unbearable sight…” Emily Quest added.
Right after Emily Quest ended her sentence, Tom Sullivan dragged Xyla Quest by her ponytail as if she were a doll and threw her out the door.
Then, he closed the door behind him without even taking a last glance at Xyla.
After crying for a long while, Xyla Quest got into her car in a zombie-like manner before driving away from Tom Sullivan’s villa.
With her abdomen recently stepped on, she began to feel intense pain as darkness filled her eyes…
In the next instant, the sports car went out of control and crashed into a large tree by the road.
Without her safety belt on, Xyla was sent flying out of the car before landing in a snow pile.
Despite struggling to climb out, she barely had any energy left in her body as every part of her body ached.
Soon, more snow began to fall on her and slowly buried her deep under the coldness.
Nobody would have known that the large body covered in snow by the empty road once belonged to Atlantis’s most beautiful lady.
With the pain spreading all over her body, Xyla Quest soon lost her consciousness.
She knew that she was probably going to die.
It was truly hilarious. Xyla never thought this was how her life would end.
If she could survive, she would make sure they paid with every drop of their blood.
Just a moment before she passed out, a pair of black boots appeared in front of her…
***
On that night, Xyla Quest was declared as a lost person. She had only texted her father, Jeremy Quest, through WeChat that she was going away on vacation.
After that, she could no longer be contacted…
There were different rumors about where she had gone.
However, according to her fiancé, Tom Sullivan, people were told that Miss Quest had eloped with someone else…
She was the cause of shame to the Quest family!
