Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 130
The stinging sensation began to spread across Xyla Quest’s cheek.The red mark was obvious against Xyla’s fair skin.On top of that, her face was also beginning to swell.The feeling of rage Xyla was trying to suppress all this time was suddenly brought to the surface by May Conner’s slap.Xyla immediately clenched her fists tightly.Although she felt the urge to attack May in return, she knew that if she did that now, May would cause a scene that would only turn out badly for Xyla.After looking around, Xyla landed her gaze upon the red fire alarm button.After a second, Xyla shifted her gaze to May’s face and took a step forward.“What did you just do?” Xyla asked coldly.Once Xyla stepped forward, her elbow was directly next to the fire alarm button.“What am I doing? I’m teaching you a lesson, of course. Xyla Quest, are you even a human? Never mind that you paid the police to bully your sister in prison and me. You even did all this to your little sister on her wedding day. How can

“What apology?” May Conner acted as if she were oblivious to what happened.“You hit her,” Stanley Batton said coldly.“Don’t make things up. I didn’t even touch her!” May immediately retorted as she subconsciously took a few steps back.Emily Quest hurriedly ran through the crowd and tugged at May’s hand.“Mom… Let’s go,” Emily said.“Do you think you can leave just like that after hitting someone?” Stanley asked coldly. Everyone around felt chills down their spines just from hearing his voice.“My mother has already said that she did not hit anyone. If you insist on saying that she did, I will claim that Xyla hit herself and blamed it on my mother. You are her husband. Whatever you say can’t be used as proof,” Emily said unhappily.“Well, in that case, can the surveillance footage be proof?” Stanley turned to look coldly at the surveillance camera above his head.May, Emily, and everyone else around them shifted their gaze upward.May and Emily’s faces instantly turned pale.Meanwhil

At that moment, Xyla Quest felt that Stanley Batton was like her hero.Every word he said would make her feel better.In fact, she even felt as if he were an umbrella that protected her from the wind and rain.Xyla had met many people over the years during her travels. However, none of the men she had met made her feel safe in such a way.When May Conner and Emily Quest heard the word ‘prison’, they immediately felt goosebumps all over their bodies.Since they had just come out from that hellish place, they knew all too well how much suffering they would have to go through there.Even if they did not have to suffer as much, it would not be a good idea to go back to prison.If things got worse, Jeremy Quest would only hate them even more.Right then, Emily and May were in a difficult position. It seemed as though whatever they did would turn out badly for them.Meanwhile, they were beginning to feel the burning gaze from everyone around them.The anger they felt immediately subsided and

However, Stanley Batton did not reply to Xyla Quest. Instead, he walked over to a female waitress who was drooling over him.Meanwhile, Xyla did not ask any further as she sat down on the couch.Outside, the northern wind blew as snow filled the air and made the world appear somewhat colder than it was.Although it was only a door away, it seemed like a completely different world altogether.After glancing at the view of the snowy scenery outside, Xyla rested her chin on one hand and looked over at Stanley.She wondered what he was saying to the waitress. After a while, someone retrieved a bottle of mineral water from a nearby fridge. The person then handed it over to Stanley, along with a white towel.Stanley soon returned to Xyla with those items.Carefully, he wrapped the bottle of mineral water with the towel before pressing it gently against Xyla’s swollen face.In that instant, Xyla could feel the coolness against her face. The sting from the slap earlier began to fade away.Alth

The six men surrounded Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton. Each of them looked mean.“Let’s do this together! Kill this b*stard!” A large bald man shouted as he stared at Stanley angrily.Reflexively, Xyla took off her coat and tossed it at Stanley before she pushed him behind her protectively with one arm.“Stand still and don’t move. I can handle these people,” she said.Xyla moved quickly while maintaining vigilance. Compared to her gentle mannerism earlier, she seemed so much cooler now.Stanley felt as if something had touched him gently somewhere deep in his heart.In his life, this was the first time a woman protected him during a time of crisis.Silently, he placed the coat over her body.“Stand still and don’t move. I’ll protect you,” he said.As soon as he spoke, a large man swung his metal bat at Stanley’s head.Remaining perfectly calm, Stanley kicked the man multiple times and sent him flying. It all happened within a single breath.In that instant, Xyla felt as if she was watc

Although the other men were equally frightened by Stanley Batton and tried to escape by crawling away, none of them had the energy to do it.They were all trembling in fear.The sounds of the metal rattling against the ground and Stanley’s footsteps were like the sounds of hell calling out to them.In fact, these men were afraid that they might die right there and then when Stanley struck them with the metal bat.Once Stanley arrived before the bald man, he frowned and pressed the edge of the metal bat against the man’s forehead.“Speak. Who sent you here?” Stanley asked.“We… We…” The bald man continuously shook his head with a frightful expression on his face.“Speak,” Stanley commanded coldly. He sounded like a king determining whether his subject lived or died.As soon as Stanley said the word, he began to exert force on the metal bat.“If you don’t wish to die,” Stanley added.“My big brother sent me here. He told me that his friend doesn’t like you and wanted to teach you a lesso

Xyla Quest seemed very focused as she continued to examine Stanley Batton’s elbow professionally.Meanwhile, Stanley sat cooperatively, silently allowing her to examine him.The light shining against her face from the outside made her appear even gentler.Despite the large coat that hung over her shoulders, she did not look any less attractive.After repeatedly examining his elbow, Xyla looked up at Stanley.“I don’t think there’s any displacement or crack in your bones. However, just as a precautionary measure, we should get an X-ray for it at the hospital. Sometimes, it’s impossible to tell if there’s a crack in the bones from the outside,” Xyla said.“Okay,” Stanley said.“The cops will be here soon. We’ll go to the hospital after we explain to them what went on here,” Xyla said.“Alright,” Stanley answered.“Thank you for taking the hit for me,” Xyla said softly.When Xyla recalled how Stanley took the bat’s hit without hesitation, she felt a warm sensation spread in her heart.“Do

When the door was opened, a welcoming little home with a simple design came into view.There was not a speck of dust visible in Stanley Batton’s home. Everything was arranged according to size and height in an orderly manner.Xyla Quest could tell that he was a very organized person in life.Coupled with Stanley’s behavior during their meals, Xyla was sure that he had hints of an obsessive-compulsive disorder.In fact, he may even be a neat freak.Xyla put on a pair of slippers before lifting the edge of her dress slightly and looking around the living room.“Where’s your kitchen?” She asked.“Over there…” Stanley pointed at the kitchen as he spoke.Xyla immediately took out the Chinese medicinal herbs and brought them into the kitchen.“What do you need? Let me help you…” Stanley followed her into the kitchen.“Nothing at all. All I need is this pot,” Xyla said as she pointed at a white pot on the kitchen top.After that, she opened the packs of Chinese medicinal herbs before placing

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.
