Xyla Quest began to feel energetic and full of life again.She quickly checked her pulse once more…This time, from her pulse, she still couldn’t find anything wrong with herself.Hence, Xyla sat up with a sense of relief in her heart.She thought that she must have overeaten last night. On top of that, she hadn’t been getting enough rest and had probably over-exerted herself.Without overthinking, Xyla returned to the bathroom to clean up.After cleaning up, she put on some light make-up and changed into a clean, white shirt dress and a silver belt, as well as espadrille heels. She picked up her silver Hermes purse and walked downstairs.There wasn’t any sound downstairs. Xyla knew that Stanley Batton must have gone to work.Hence, she reflexively walked into the dining room.There was a lot of delicious food on the dining table, including steamed pork rolls, soy milk, fried dough, and tofu pudding.Apart from that, there was also a light-blue note Stanley had left behind. “

“That’s because Linda feels that the person who hates you the most in her group of female friends is Mary. Meanwhile, the timing of that incident was way too coincidental…“As soon as I heard that, I felt that this was indeed what happened. Hence, I didn’t even bother investigating any further,” Georgie Clementine explained everything carefully.This all sounded very logical to Xyla Quest too…Naturally, Mary Sullivan would feel jealous after finding out about all that in the WeChat group…Influenced by her resentment, Mary would naturally think of ways to torture Xyla.Meanwhile, blowing things out of proportion by leaking stuff on Weibo was undoubtedly the best way to do so.That was because if Stanley Batton had done this behind the back of Xyla’s in-laws, they’d surely find out if things got blown out of proportion.Also, Xyla’s in-laws would be mad. Moreover, they would direct their anger at her. In fact, they might even think that Xyla took advantage of Stanley’s riches wi

In the end, the man dressed in black directly raised Mary Sullivan above his head.Although Mary was naturally lean, the man dressed in black was tall and muscular. It was completely effortless for him to pick her up.Right then, it looked as if he was carrying a small chicken.A strong sense of insecurity instantly began to spread from Mary’s heart.She immediately started screaming. “Help… Help… Mmph…”However, after shouting twice, another man in black sealed her mouth up with black tape.Immediately after that, the man in black, who was holding her, mercilessly tossed her to the floor.Mary’s waist landed on the floor first. After that, her head did.Suddenly, Mary felt her mind going blank.Meanwhile, her legs seemed to have gone completely numb. She couldn’t move at all.Although Mary very much wanted to get up and run away, she couldn’t even move.“B*tch, how dare you use Miss Linda’s name to spread the news she shared with you… Are you mad?“Miss Linda told us to te

“You are on bad terms with Xyla Quest purely because of your own doing… With how you behave, I wouldn’t be nice to you if I were Xyla!” After saying that, Linda Jerome forcefully stepped on the back of Mary Sullivan’s hand with her heel.Intense pain spread through Mary’s hand, and she instantly broke into a cold sweat from the pain…Although Mary tried to struggle again, she didn’t have any energy left in her.She was petrified…She was afraid that she would die in Linda’s hands.Mary also felt very aggrieved.Back then, when the Sullivan family was powerful, even folks like the Jerome family would have to step aside.Would Linda have dared to bully Mary back then?Now that the Sullivan family was no longer powerful as it once was, everybody walked all over them.Hehe…If things were the way they were before, Mary would surely get someone to beat Linda to death if she were treated like this.But now, Mary couldn’t do anything even if Linda bullied her.If Mary did somethin

After quickly turning on the faucet, Mary Sullivan briefly cleaned herself up. After that, she fished around in her purse to look for something that could cover her face.However, she couldn’t find anything.In the end, she helplessly braced herself and walked out of the private room with her head down.On her way out, she walked past many people.Everyone who walked past her couldn’t resist glancing at her a few more times.By the time she arrived on the first floor, she had become the center of attention in the entire lobby.“Why is that woman covered in bruises? Could it be a case of domestic violence?”“Look at her. She’s all swollen up like a pig…”“Hang on… Isn’t that Mary Sullivan?”“It really does look like Mary Sullivan. Did she offend someone? She’s doing this all the time. Honestly, she brings shame to the Sullivan family!”Every word and sentence that Mary heard made her feel embarrassed.At this moment, she felt as if her pride was being trampled all over on the

Right after that, a large number of comments came into Xyla Quest’s sight—“At first, when I saw somebody’s face all swollen up like that in a picture, I still felt sorry for that person. But after seeing that the person is Mary Sullivan? Never mind…”“What else could have happened? I remember that this woman always gets herself into trouble. She’s an old witch. She must have asked for it.”“I would still be a little curious if other people were beaten up, but if it’s Mary, I won’t even need to guess to know that it must’ve been her fault.”“Although it’s very mean to say this, I still want to tell the person who beat Mary up that you did a good job.”“Tsk, tsk… She really brings a lot of shame to the Sullivan family… What did she do this time?”Back when Mary Sullivan did many bad things, she often made it onto the list of hot topics.Her reputation wasn’t good, to begin with…Hence, now, Xyla didn’t feel at all surprised by everyone’s comments.Xyla thought that the Sullivan

After sucking in a breath of cold air, Mary Sullivan quickly hung up the phone. Nervously, she turned on the car engine.After that, she grabbed the steering wheel with her trembling hands.She then stepped on the gas pedal and drove quickly away from the clinic in her black Porsche Cayenne.At this moment, Mary’s heart was already up to her throat…She knew that she was going to be in deep trouble.Mary wanted to run and hide, but she knew she couldn’t.She could avoid the trouble for a while, but she couldn’t avoid it forever.If she tried to hide, her father would undoubtedly be even more furious.When he eventually found her, he’d make her suffer even more.Mary knew her father very well. His rage wouldn’t subside just because she hid away for some time.Approximately half an hour later, Mary made it back to the Sullivan family’s house.The bruises on her face and body looked even worse than before.Her entire body looked even more like a pig now.In fact, she looked l

It hurt Mary Sullivan’s ego even more.Despite how Linda Jerome was Mary’s enemy, Mary’s father was teaching her a lesson in front of her enemy.Mary felt thoroughly humiliated, and she was also outraged.However, she could only keep her mouth shut. She didn’t dare to speak a word.“You b*stard! Didn’t I warn you not to cause any trouble, especially not Xyla Quest… Hmm?“Now, not only did you mess with Xyla, but you even messed with Linda. Have you gone mad?” Tony Sullivan started yelling coldly again.Julian Sullivan, who had remained silent all the while, couldn’t help but speak up. “Dad… I think Mary already knows that she’s wrong. Please forgive her.”Tom also started speaking. “Yeah… Dad, please forgive her.”After the two Sullivan brothers finished speaking, they looked at each other before shaking their heads helplessly.Mary didn’t only give Tony a headache, but they also gave the two of them headaches too.When Mary heard this, she instantly looked at Julian and Tom

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.
