That was why Rachel Wood didn’t say anything.Things had already gotten to this point. Regardless of what she said, nothing would change.Seeing how hurt Sebastian Brenand appeared made her heart ache greatly.The thing she was most afraid of was to watch Sebastian getting hurt…In the end, she still saw it happening.If it was possible, Rachel hoped Sebastian didn’t know anything about this at all.“Rachel, you fool!” Sebastian said again as he caressed her face gently. His fingers trembled continuously.“Sorry… I lied to you…” Rachel stammered.“If you’re sorry, stay strong and live on. I’ve already summoned a specialist group for you. They’ll be here very soon. Once they arrive, they’ll make sure you are cured,” Sebastian said.“Sebastian… Don’t waste your efforts. Cancer cells have spread all over my body. I can’t be cured,” Rachel said with a bitter laugh. “Listen to me. Tell them not to come. Don’t waste any more money on me,” she added.“It’s my duty to spend money on

Sebastian Brenand didn’t dare to think what would become of him if Rachel Wood really died. He believed that he definitely wouldn’t be able to bear the pain of losing her the second time.The woman in his arms was getting weaker by the second. Sebastian felt truly afraid that he would lose her the next second.No matter what, he had to make sure this person was cured.“Oh, right… There’s still Dr. Batton…” Right then, Sebastian suddenly thought of Ron Batton.Ron’s medical skills were even better than those internationally-renowned specialists…Sebastian immediately called Stanley Batton on the phone.On the other end of the phone, in Dragon Group’s president’s office, Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton were sitting by the coffee table, drinking coffee and playing Honor of Kings.Xyla was lazily resting on the sofa’s soft armrest with her legs placed naturally on Stanley’s lap. She held her phone with both hands, and she seemed very focused.Meanwhile, Stanley leaned gently against

Immediately after that, Stanley Batton, Gary Lakes, and Henry Armstrong took the lead to get out of the helicopter.The three men were dressed in suits of black, white, and gray. They gave off a noble aura. In fact, they appeared even more attractive than male protagonists in idol dramas.The next second, Xyla Quest and Ron Batton also got out of the helicopter together.The handsome men and the beautiful woman stunned everyone who saw them—“Am I watching an idol drama? Those four people are way too good-looking, aren’t they?”“The main thing is their vibes… Aren’t they fantastic?”“I think that woman and the man holding her hand both look a little familiar. I might have seen them somewhere.”“Could they be celebrities?”“I doubt celebrities would go around in such a high-profile manner. I think they are probably people with rich parents.”The crowd couldn’t help but talk among themselves.Many couldn’t resist stopping in their tracks to ogle at the group of people…Xyla an

“I did experiments on ten mice with advanced cancer before. Among those ten mice, only one survived… I heard that you invited many specialists to come over, didn’t you? Once they arrive, we’ll get together to come up with a suitable plan. As for whether we can succeed, that will depend on this girl’s luck…” Ron Batton added.Sebastian Brenand nodded enthusiastically.Even if there was only a one percent chance, it was better than nothing.Right now, he only hoped that Rachel Wood could be the lucky one to be cured.He simply hoped for a miracle to happen…“Okay, everyone else should leave… The patient needs to rest now… Stan and Xyla can stay behind. Let me know once the specialist group arrives… ” Ron said.Right after Ron spoke, Sebastian nodded again. After that, he looked deeply at Rachel…He stood there for a long while before leaving with Gary Lakes and Henry Armstrong.Xyla Quest, Stanley Batton, and Ron were the only three people left in the large ICU.Ron immediately

But Rachel Wood, who was on the bed, was still not responding at all.On the heartbeat monitor, her heart rate was still rapidly decreasing…Due to the plummeting rate, a beeping alarm could be heard. It was a loud screeching that was painful to the ear…Sebastian Brenand was in complete disarray. He repeatedly shouted next to Rachel like a mad man. “Rachel Wood… Rachel Wood, wake up… Do you hear me?”The person in the bed had a pale, greenish complexion. Her lips had a faint purple hue.Although her body rose and fell along with the defibrillators, there was no response at all.“No… I don’t want you to die… Rachel, if you die, what will I do? Wake up.“Don’t you love me? Hmm?”Sebastian felt truly afraid. He was afraid that Rachel would die in the next second…At that moment, Xyla Quest was also sweating profusely from the nervousness.She began to press the defibrillators against Rachel more frequently…Ron Batton and the other specialists nearby were all worried about Rac

Sebastian Brenand’s smile gradually widened. “It’s true… Dr. Batton’s traditional medicine, coupled with conventional chemotherapy, really does work effectively.”“Does that mean I have a chance at survival?” Rachel Wood asked.“As long as you persist, you really might be able to…” Sebastian said.“Alright.”“For me, you must be a good girl and receive the treatment, okay?” Sebastian asked.“Alright.”Now, Sebastian’s words had filled Rachel with confidence. She believed that, as long as she tried hard enough, she would be able to survive.***As Rachel was doing better, Xyla Quest brought Ron Batton back to Atlantis.At the same time, Sebastian also dismissed the specialists he had found, leaving only three of the top-notch ones behind.In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.After a comprehensive examination, the doctors were certain that her cancer cells had been thoroughly removed. Rachel was discharged from the hospital right away.On the same day, Sebastian brough

Following Sebastian Brenand’s footsteps, Rachel Wood made her way into the house.The house was of typical European style.It had a grand, courtly style with gold and jade embellishment. There was also her favorite type of tasseled crystal chandelier that dangled from the ceiling.On top of that, there were also her favorite European-style furniture and her favorite rose-scented fragrance in the air.Everything was prepared exactly the way she liked.“I like everything here…” Rachel said.Sebastian instantly reached out with his and naturally pulled her into his arms. “Yeah… I had it decorated to your liking.”“I like it a lot…” Rachel said.“Hmm, as long as you like it…” With that, Sebastian reluctantly released her. He then walked to the coffee table before opening a drawer under it. He retrieved a kraft paper bag and handed it over to Rachel directly. “These are for you…” He said.The bag was heavy. Rachel looked at Sebastian with a bewildered look on her face. After that,

After having dinner at Dream Garden, Stanley Batton, Xyla Quest, and Ron Batton returned home together.As soon as they arrived home, Ron went upstairs.Stanley took Xyla’s hand and walked her to the sofa in the living room. He then extended his arms and pulled her into his embrace.Xyla obediently snuggled up to him like a kitten. “Have you not found the person who killed Emily and May yet?” she asked.“No…” Stanley said.“Apart from the cause of death, we’ve not found anything. I’ve already looked for other detectives to assist Carson’s investigation,” he added.Xyla nodded wearily. “What about Zack? He brought some people to look for Yaksha. It’s been a month and a half now… Logically, we should’ve received news by now.”“Not for now…” As soon as Stanley said that, he received a call from Zack Cassidy.He then answered the call and turned on the loudspeaker.“Mr. Batton… I found traces of Yaksha on a nameless island in a cloudless part of the sea…” Zack said.Once Xyla hea

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.
