“Xyla… You’re really like a popular star now. You’ve appeared on the list of hot topics so frequently…” Georgie Clementine said.“What did they say about me this time?” Xyla Quest asked.“Check out the hot topics,” Georgie said.When Xyla heard this, she directly tapped into Weibo’s hot topics section to take a look.Hot topic number one, ‘#Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton# Explosive’.Hot topic number two, ‘#Dragon Group 70th anniversary celebration and Josh Batton#’.Hot topic number three, ‘#Josh Batton, Stanley Batton, and Xyla Quest#’.Xyla directly tapped on the first hot topic and took a look…There was a group of marketing accounts sharing photos of her and Stanley Batton together…There were pictures of Stanley carrying her off a helicopter and pictures of Stanley dancing with her, and pictures of them and Josh dancing together on stage.The photos were all unedited pictures, but they seemed more beautiful than the average celebrity’s finely retouched pictures.Xyla an

“Kill the others on the deck too… Their happiness looks annoying,” the golden-masked man said creepily.As soon as the golden-masked man gave the order, a group of men dressed in black tied ropes around their waists.In the very next second, twenty men dressed in black leaped down in unison.The ropes were long, and after jumping down, their bodies hung only two meters above the deck.Immediately after that, they began to shoot in the direction of the deck quickly…Bullets rained down on the deck one by one, and they exploded all over the deck…Danger approached—Xyla Quest immediately pulled Daisy Cox along to hide behind a thick pillar nearby. After that, they quickly dived to the ground.Bullets continued to rain from above, colliding against the pillar next to them. Countless sparks could be seen under the dark night sky.The five guests on the deck panicked all of a sudden, and they fled in all directions while they cried for help.Some of them had already been hit by bu

The moment they appeared, all the panic in Xyla Quest’s heart disappeared. In its place, Xyla only felt an endless sense of security.Amid the gunfire, they quickly came to Xyla’s side, standing in front of her and Daisy Cox.People said that, in times of trouble, true love could be observed.In this life-and-death situation, the two brothers were willing to go against the tides for Xyla, blocking the wave of bullets from her. This really touched her.With a sniping rifle in hand, Stanley Batton started shooting at the group of men dressed in black. He looked at Josh Batton and gave an order. “Take them away first…”His tone was firm, leaving no space for discussion.The way Stanley fired his gun was very professional. While holding a gun, he looked even more handsome. He was just like the handsome protagonist who rescued the world in action movies.Stanley barely missed a shot. After firing twice, two men dressed in black were hit on the wrist.The next second, the guns in the

The other three, respectively, were hit by bullets in the left shin, the right upper arm, and the left upper arm.Likewise, their wounds kept bleeding.Xyla Quest instantly used hemostatic items to stop the bleeding for all three of them.***On the deck, the gun battle continued.Despite the hail of bullets around him, Stanley Batton stood still, calm as ever.Immediately after that, six more men dressed in black were shot in the heart mid-air.The bright red liquid poured from the air onto the deck in steady streams. At one glance, it seemed extremely unsightly.Meanwhile, the golden-masked man in the sky calmly pulled the helicopter lift lever and raised the helicopter’s altitude…As the helicopter flew higher and higher, the men dressed in black, dead or injured, went further and further away from the deck.Gradually, they were out of the range of the sniping rifles.Seeing that those people were taking off higher and higher, Stanely immediately put his rifle away until

Daisy Cox was obviously already scared, and she was even trembling, but she held back her fear and protected Xyla Quest.Such friendship couldn’t be bought with money.However, Daisy shrugged nonchalantly. “It’s not a big deal… I have said it before, you rescued Tyler, and that means rescuing me… I’m willing to do anything for you.”Looking at how light-hearted Daisy seemed, Xyla felt even more touched. Xyla immediately clutched Daisy’s hand again. “Anyway, thank you, I owe you my life… I will never forget how you saved me today. I will remember it for as long as I live, Daisy. In the future, as long as you need my help, I’ll do whatever I can.” Daisy’s smile widened. “Xyla, you are too serious. I don’t need you to do anything extreme for me. Alright… We’ll go back first. I’ll ask you to go shopping with me tomorrow. Tyler and I will stay in Atlantis for a few days this time.”“Okay…” Xyla instantly agreed.After seeing Daisy off, Xyla got into an extended black Rolls Royce pa

“This needs further confirmation. If it really was him, then this incident will give us an extra clue to find him. To be honest, he might also have been coming after someone else. After all, everyone on the deck had a special identity,” Stanley Batton said.“Yeah…” Xyla Quest said blandly.When Xyla recalled the scenes on the deck just now, she still felt very scared.She dreaded to think what would have become of her and Daisy Cox if Stanley Batton had come a moment later.Daisy, especially, would have been killed by the gunfire, wouldn’t she?“Daisy is a really nice person. She’s naive, adorable, and kind,” Xyla complimented.“Yeah, I’ll have to treat her to a nice meal later to thank her,” Stanley said.“Yeah.” Xyla had made up her mind to befriend Daisy because she stood up for her in a time of crisis.***The next morning, before Xyla even woke up, Daisy had called and asked her to go shopping with her.The two of them met at Goldfield Plaza in the city center.After Xy

It was as if Daisy Cox was recounting someone else’s affairs. She didn’t seem to care at all.“I wasn’t fully cured until the day I celebrated my sixteenth birthday,” Daisy added.“Did you manage to find a suitable heart for the transplant?” Xyla Quest asked."Well, my body’s genes are somewhat unique. I can’t actually go through organ transplants. If I do that, there’s a 100% chance of my body rejecting the transplant.“When it was close to my sixteenth birthday, Tyler met a miracle doctor who said that he had a type of medicine that could modify my unique genes…” Daisy said one word at a time.Hearing this topic, Xyla’s heart bubbled with joy.She had been thinking for some time whether there was some way to modify Stanley Batton’s genes.After that, she’d help him get a bone marrow transplant.As far as Xyla knew, it was possible to modify a person’s genes. The only thing was that technology these days wasn’t advanced enough.All over the world, there were no cases of peopl

“He also said the island he lives on is especially cool, and the air conditioning doesn’t even need to be on during the summer. That’s all I know,” Daisy Cox added.There wasn’t a lot of information, but Xyla Quest still found it very useful.She could use the clues from Daisy to identify the compatible islands around the world one by one.After that, she would send people to look for Yaksha on each island.Although this was a very difficult process, Xyla was determined to give it a try as long as Stanley could be cured.“Do you have a photo of this person?” Xyla asked.Daisy shook her head. “He didn’t let us take a picture of him. We respected him a great deal too, and we didn’t take any pictures.”“Have you seen his face then? Please describe how he looks. I’ll draw a picture of him on my phone.” Xyla probed hopefully.“He was wearing a mask. It’s one of those silver masks that covers the top half of his face. I’ve never seen how his face actually looks,” Daisy said.“Anyway

Xyla quickly reached for Hannah’s hand. “Is that right? Hannah, you’re amazing…! You’re practically on par with Leon!”Hannah laughed, slightly embarrassed. “Not at all.”“Oh, cut it out. If you hadn’t helped me, how could I have improved so quickly?” Leon chuckled.“I guess I’ve lived up to my promise.” Hannah giggled along.Back then, she had promised Leon that she would become someone deserving of him.She claimed that she would grow with Leon.Without a doubt, she had done it.Now, Hannah had become a successful woman many would often speak of. She earned her rightful seat next to Leon as the CEO of Dragon Group.Stanley also turned to look at Hannah. “Yes, Hannah’s very capable. She’s our family pride.”Hannah laughed. “I was lucky to be accepted by your family.”In fact, Hannah genuinely felt grateful toward the Batton family over the years she had spent with them.They had helped her through all the hardship she encountered when she was poor and down on her luck.Aft

“Hannah, I’ve taken the first step for you. Are you willing to walk by my side for the rest of our lives?” Leon asked, serious.“Yes, I am…” Hannah answered without missing a beat.“I’ll protect you. From now on, you don’t have to worry about a single thing.” With that, Leon placed both hands on Hannah’s face and kissed her on the lips.The moment their lips touched, everything felt surreal…Hannah could feel pink, light bubbles floating all around her. It felt as if all the flowers in the world were blossoming at once.In Hannah’s dark, depressing life, Leon was her only salvation.He was a ray of hope that led her out of hell, so she could see light once more.Hannah thought she would never have anything to do with Leon after she quit school.Even until now, she still remembered how sorrowful she was on her last day of school.But now… Not only did she get the opportunity to interact with him once more, but they also became a couple.Their driver sighed to himself while

Over time, Leon’s feelings for Hannah grew deeper, stronger, and more intense.He had grown used to having her with him all the time.Thus, he hoped she would stay by his side for the rest of his life.Upon hearing his words, Hannah’s mind went blank.What did her dream guy just say?Was she dreaming?Hannah quickly pinched her palm at the thought in an attempt to discern between dream and reality.Her palm hurt. That meant this wasn’t a dream. It was real!Hannah felt even more dumbfounded…This meant Leon actually liked her! He was confessing to her, wasn’t he?Did her dream guy actually reciprocate her feelings?Never in her wildest dreams did Hannah imagine she would go through such an experience.Excitement jammed her mind, so much that she was rendered speechless. There were many things she wanted to say, and yet, she couldn’t utter a single word.Her heartbeat increased rapidly, and her entire body began to shake. Sensing her trembling body, Leon tightened his e

Immediately after, the men in black pulled out guns from their pockets, which they aimed at Raymond’s head.Raymond panicked instantly, going pale.He subconsciously retreated a step back. “Who are you? Don’t you know what you’re doing is illegal?”Leon sneered. “You don’t deserve to know my name. In this city, I am the law.”Leon’s domineering words made him seem even more imposing.At this moment, Hannah felt as if he was a guardian angel sent from Heaven to protect her.Something about him seemed oddly sacred and heavenly.“Mr. Batton, do I shoot him in the head?” One of the men dressed in black asked.“Mr. Batton? Are you Stanley Batton’s son?!” Fear was beginning to spread through Raymond. For one to have Batton as his surname and act this arrogantly in Atlantis, he could be none other than a member of the renowned Batton family.“How dare you address our president by name?!” Another man in black leveled Raymond with a chilling glare.Suffice to say, Raymond was terrif

Terrible pain ached at every part of Hannah’s body as she collided with the cold, hard ground.The pain was such that all her bones felt close to breaking. Everywhere hurt badly.At that moment, Hannah felt like a fragile doll made of clay that had been forcefully slammed hard against the ground until it broke into small pieces.Her mind went blank from the stinging agony.She braced herself and looked at the cold eyes staring back at her, filled with terror. Stammering, she asked, “Mr. Gray… What is the meaning of this?” “What’s the meaning of this? Ha! Don’t you know what’s good for you? You dumb b*tch… You’re lucky that I set my sights on you!”“How dare you refuse my feelings! Not just that, but you even made up a story to deceive me!”“Even when you saw me, you tried to trick me again!”“Do you think I’m stupid? That I can’t think? Do you honestly think I’d fall for your lies again and again?” Raymond went, his tone steadily rising into a furious roar.He then got on o

Although the sun had long sunk beneath the horizons and darkness had set in, the lively city wasn’t about to be silent anytime soon. Hannah felt deeply unsettled, so much that she didn’t leave right away.Instead, she waited in front of the bar, filled with hesitance and anxiety.Should she really leave?Would Rihanna truly be able to sort things out?The man was Raymond Gray… Neither Rihanna nor the bar could afford to upset him, lest they face terrible repercussions.Hannah remained standing on the same spot, uncertain. She really didn’t know what to do.Finally, she came to a decision. She took out her phone and tapped open a ride-hailing application on her phone.Yet just as she did that, she instantly closed it. Afterwards, she began pacing back and forth in worried circles, going to and fro aimlessly. Right as she was trapped in her worried musings, a group of people exited the bar. Raymond Gray, dressed in black, sporty attire, led all of them in a flamboyant manner.

A handsome waiter quickly walked in and looked at Rihanna. “Ms. Jensen, Mr. Gray out there insists that Hannah should get on stage to sing another song. I told him that Hannah would only sing three songs today…”“He lost his temper and claimed he’d destroy our bar if Hannah refuses to sing another song…” The waiter added. He was visibly trembling by the end of the sentence.Hannah figured Mr. Gray was probably the only son of the new mayor of Atlantis there weren’t many people with Gray as their surname in Atlantis. There were even less people who were arrogant like him. He was the only one.Hannah had heard about how terrible this person could be. He was known to be a womanizer too.Due to his powerful background, he looked down on everyone else. He didn’t respect women at all… Moreover, he had a relatively cruel personality. One could almost describe him as being a pervert.There was once when an owner of a bar offended a female internet celebrity he was dating. He directly hired

Hannah Roland smiled politely at Lina Cohen. “Nice to meet you… Thank you in advance!”“No problem… Do let me know if there’s anything you don’t like about your makeup too,” Lina said.Hannah nodded. “Okay, sure…”“By the way… Do all the signers here get such good treatment? I’m surprised we’re even assigned our own makeup artists,” Hannah asked carefully as she wasn’t aware about things like these..However, Lina smiled without answering Hannah’s question directly. She held Hannah’s hand casually the next second, “Come here. I’ll start doing your makeup now…”Hannah nodded…Lina was a very professional makeup artist. She took an hour to finish Hannah’s makeup.An hour later, Hannah’s appearance transformed completely.Lina permed Hannah’s long, black hair into natural-looking curls.Hannah had intricate peach-colored makeup on her face which made her appear lively and youthful.Once Lina was done with Hannah’s makeup, she happily retrieved a long, white dress from a clothes

Hannah Roland smiled without saying anything.***Hannah arrived at the bar where she worked at seven o’clock the next evening and walked into Rihanna Jensen’s office.Rihanna was going through paperwork in her office. When she saw Hannah, she immediately stood up and smiled at her. “Hannah, you’re here…”“Here’s the contract…” Rihanna said before pushing a thick stack of paper to the center of the table.Hannah quickly stepped forward and skimmed through the document. She then picked up a pen and signed it…Rihanna smiled upon seeing this. “Okay… I’ll transfer the money into your account tonight… I’ve told our big boss about your situation. He’s fine with my decision to pay your salary in advance. In fact, he even told me I did a good job…”“He said you can sing without worrying about a single thing… If you need any help in the future, do let us know…” Rihanna added.Hannah felt glad when she heard this, and became teary-eyed. “Thank you… Please thank our big boss for me too.
