"I've been pretty good to you lately, haven't I? Why are you doing this to me? Why did you fake that recording and accuse me of drugging you?" May Conner quibbled.

May was still looking for a lifeline. That was the only thing she could do right now.

"Is that so? Tell me what's this then." Xyla Quest pulled out a copy of her blood test result from her silver handbag.

She thrust it into May's hands.

The report clearly stated that the mercury level in her body was ten times over the limit!

There was a slight tremor in May's eyes. "Xyla, what's this?"

"You should know better." Xyla cut to the chase.

"Stop it, Xyla! I can't believe you've faked the report to slander my mother!" Emily Quest rebuked furiously.

Xyla glared at May coldly. She did not even bother to look at Emily. "Am I slandering you? You know the answer better than anyone else, Auntie."

Jeremy Quest took a deep breath before interrupting their conversation. "May, you better go into jail with your daughter and... Let's get a divorce. I'll ask the lawyer to pass you the divorce agreement once it's done."

May's heart instantly leaped to her throat, her eyes were darting around in fear. "What... What did you say?"

"I said, let's get a divorce. I've warned you, right? I'll divorce you if you try to hurt Xyla again..." Jeremy hissed.

May shook her head frantically. "No... I didn't, dear..."

Without paying any heed to her, Jeremy turned to Xyla and said, "Xyla, May has nothing to do with me from now on. I don't care about your sister, either. Hence, do whatever you want to do. I will support you with all my heart."

He was not going to give in for the sake of May and Emily anymore.

He knew that Xyla would be the only one getting hurt if the two of them were not punished for their seething resentment and viciousness.

As the saying went, a leopard could not change its spots.

"Xyla, no!" Terror washed over May.

"Dad, Mom has nothing to do with this incident. I'm serious. Punish me alone if you're mad. And... And... Mom really didn't drug Xyla!" Emily instantly rose to her feet and stared at Jeremy pleadingly, tears coursing down her cheeks unchecked. Her brain was hitting the panic button.

She knew that she and her mother would be dead if Jeremy refused to stand up for them.

"Xyla, I really didn't drug you. Please give Emily another chance." May began to wail, hoping that her tears could melt Jeremy's anger.

Xyla frowned slightly. "Another chance... I've given you enough chances, haven't I? It's you who didn't appreciate them. To be frank, I've thought of calling a truce for the sake of Dad, but apparently, the two of you have crossed the line..."

"Xyla, just do whatever you want to do!" Jeremy snapped.

"Dad, have you made up your mind?" Xyla studied his face earnestly, her eyes brimming with curiosity.

"Yes." Jeremy nodded. "Is there a better option than sending these two witches to jail?"

At that instant, Jeremy was certain that his heart for May had died.

This evil woman did not deserve him.

In the next second, Xyla picked up her phone and dialed 911.

She explained the situation detailedly to the police.

After that, she hung up the phone.

The call had left May and Emily in despair.

They knew that it was over. They were finished no matter what they tried to do now.
