If a top-notch celebrity, the king of kings in the entertainment industry, were sent to the hospital in the middle of the night because of this incident, the media and the public would undoubtedly come up with a lot of assumptions… In fact, everyone might even impose a lot of ridiculous things on Josh Batton.They might even create rumors that Josh was doing drugs.Such was the fate of being in this industry.Meanwhile, many marketing accounts, as well as media platforms, would do anything to boost traffic.

Annabeth Cates quickly closed her eyes. After that, she immediately pulled the white sheet over her head to cover her face.Annabeth really didn’t know how to face Josh Batton.Whenever she recalled a scene from last night, her heart rate would increase ever so slightly.

Annabeth Cates wanted to allow Josh Batton to return to his dwellings of purity.“Josh… I told you, I don’t need you to be responsible for me… Besides, I already have a boyfriend. So if you want to be responsible for me, wouldn’t that mean I’d have to abandon my boyfriend for you?” Annabeth asked.“I’m not the kind of person who would rush into a new relationship and break off the old one. Moreover, I don’t like you… That’s why you should stop messing around… I’m begging you, alright?” Annabeth added.Annabeth knew Josh’s temperament very well.He would do whatever he said.Since he said those things, that meant he had made up his mind to be responsible for her.Annabeth had no choice but to make up such a lie to avoid giving him such great pressure.This was the only way to relieve Josh of his burden…Josh didn’t have feelings for Annabeth at all. So since he didn’t like her, what’s the point of forcing him to be with her?Josh was shocked by what Annabeth said.He’d always

“But… I really can’t pretend nothing has happened, even if you want me to,” Josh Batton said truthfully.“What’s so hard about it? Josh… You don’t have to be this way. Alright… Let’s clean up. We’ve got to get to work,” Annabeth Cates said seriously.After that, Annabeth carefully patted Josh on the shoulder nonchalantly. “Alright… Stop whining. I’m a woman, and I’m not even whining. So why are you, a grown man, whining?“Besides, I don’t think I’ve lost anything from sleeping with a top-notch celebrity… So many people would line up to sleep with you…” Annabeth continued to speak consolingly.“Do you really think that way?” Josh seemed shocked.Josh didn’t think a traditional girl like Annabeth would have thoughts like this.Annabeth shrugged nonchalantly. “Yeah… That’s what I think. Let’s both stop thinking about it. Stay calm. Just pretend nothing happened. It’ll be fine…”Josh shook his head helplessly. “It’s already happened. How can I pretend as if nothing has happened?”“

When Josh Batton saw how nonchalant Annabeth Cates seemed to be, he felt much more relaxed, too…“Annabeth… For the stuff I mentioned about giving you, I’ve already asked someone to transfer those things to your name…” Josh said softly.Annabeth immediately panicked when she heard this. “I told you. I don’t want anything…”However, Josh smiled gently. “No. I insist…”“I’ll transfer the stuff back to you later…” Annabeth said.“The transfer fee is costly…” Josh replied.“No matter how expensive it is, I’ll do it.” Annabeth’s expression turned increasingly serious.Although huge houses and luxury sports cars were huge temptations to a girl like her from a mediocre household, she didn’t want to accept any of those things from Josh.Annabeth knew that Josh wanted to compensate her, but she didn’t need it at all.If she really accepted those things after sleeping with someone, what would she become?A high-class prostitute?“Stop messing around… Be good…” Josh said softly.

Josh Batton smiled gently as he followed bodyguards into the mall with Annabeth Cates next to him.

He also had a casual, ash-green windbreaker on the outside and a pair of white sneakers.His hair was split in a neat three-to-seven ratio, and his bangs were slightly curled with hair wax.Josh had a clean, sharp, and refreshing appearance.Although it was clearly a very difficult style to pull off, Josh was able to do it perfectly and charmingly.“D*mn… He’s so handsome…”“What kind of god is this? I can’t take it anymore, sisters. I need an ambulance…”“Josh, focus on your work. You’re not allowed to get into a relationship. Wait for me to marry you!”Everyone said

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?

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

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?

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.

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.
