Under circumstances where forgiveness could be found, he would be able to keep this woman around.However, based on how things were going, it was clear that pleading was futile. Hence, he naturally didn’t have any reason to keep Flora around.Female celebrities were unobtainable goddesses in an ordinary person’s eyes.However, to rich kids like them, these women were nothing more than toys that could be bought with money.They could mess around with these women when they wanted, but when personal benefits were involved, they could, just as quickly, kick these women to the curb.He was absolutely unwilling to offend a top-tier friend for a mere woman.In the next second, Flora started crying.She knew what her sugar daddy was thinking.More importantly, she knew that her life was ruined.At this moment, Flora regretted her behavior of looking down on another person earlier.Meanwhile, the rich kids, female celebrities, and internet celebrities in the room were all feeling afra
Sebastian Brenand was furious. The consequences were very dire…When Rachel Wood saw this, she carefully tugged at Sebastian’s hand. “Calm down. She knows she’s wrong. There’s no reason to do the worst to her,” Rachel said.Rachel didn’t like doing the worst things to people.Since Flora had apologized, Rachel wanted to let things slide.However, how could Sebastian let that happen?Sebastian grabbed Rachel’s hand tightly before gently kissing it. “Stay out of this… Good girl… Be quiet.”After saying that, Sebastian looked at Flora again. “If you don’t want to risk losing job opportunities outside of the entertainment industry too, you’d best leave right away…”Flora panicked. She knew that someone like Sebastian could eliminate all her career opportunities in any industry.Hearing this, Flora began rubbing her palms furiously against each other. “No… Sebastian, you can’t do this to me…” She pleaded humbly.She’d slept with countless people to get to where she was today…Flor
Now, his attitude had changed completely because of Sebastian Brenand.Rachel Woods felt a little speechless at how fast a person’s attitude could change.However, after spending a lot of time by Sebastian’s side, Rachel had gotten used to observing such rapid changes in people’s attitudes and behavior. So she didn’t find this very shocking at all.Rachel politely smiled, but she didn’t speak too much.At one glance, she looked like a quiet, beautiful lady.“Alright, stop trying to earn favor here…” Sebastian glanced at him coldly before walking over to Henry Armstrong and Georgie Clementine with Rachel.Other people sitting at the table immediately walked away and offered their seats to the two…Right then, Sebastian was still angry at that rich kid because the woman he had brought over made offensive comments about his fiance.Naturally, Sebastian couldn’t offer him any good expression.Meanwhile, the rich kid immediately moved close to Sebastian and started apologizing agai
Sebastian Brenand was traumatized by Rachel Wood’s genuine anger.If Rachel became really angry, she would refuse to listen to anything Sebastian said.In fact, she would even pretend he was invisible.Not even any branded purses or clothes could appease her.Back then, Sebastian had suffered through this.Hence, he couldn’t possibly repeat the same mistake.Sebastian had lived over two decades. He was not afraid of anything other than Rachel’s true anger…When Sebastian thought of this, he instantly waved his hand helplessly. “Alright, alright. As you wish, my lady…”Everyone apart from Henry Armstrong and Georgie Clementine was once again shocked by this…They all knew very well how Sebastian behaved in the past.Ever since he was young, he’d get anything he wanted.Hence, Sebastian never had to change his mind about what he said.Nearly nobody could stop Sebastian from doing what he wanted.Moreover, he wouldn’t compromise just because of any woman getting angry.Howev
These women might never achieve what Rachel Wood achieved in this lifetime.At the end of the sixth match, Rachel won again…Rachel felt that she practically had god-like luck…After receiving all the gaming chips, Rachel realized that she already had a pile of chips the size of a small hill…“Am I not way too lucky today?” Rachel carefully put her chips away as she asked. There was a glimmer of joy in her eyes that couldn’t be concealed.When Sebastian Brenand heard this, he immediately chuckled before affectionately ruffling her hair. “Yeah… You are… My fiance is the bringer of good luck…”When Rachel heard this, she immediately laughed…“Honey, are you tired?” Sebastian asked.Rachel shook her head.Winning money was a fun experience.How could she be feeling tired?“Are you thirsty? Do you want something to drink?” Sebastian asked.Rachel shook her head again…Now, she just wanted to focus on playing mahjong. As for drinking beverages or stuff like that, she had no int
The person who showed up was Catherine Batton.Indeed, she was the most adored girl in the entire Batton family. As soon as she showed up, she stunned everyone present with her worldwide, limited-edition attire from head to toe.The bright red, layered halter skirt she wore was from Dior, and it was the only piece in the entire world. The hem of the skirt only reached the area in between her thigh and kneecap.The ‘Z’ letter design of the skirt fully accentuated her long, lean, and fair legs…The body-hugging design of her upper body’s outfit showed off the curves of her body.To top it off, she wore Dior’s custom-made, high-class silver flat heels. She also had the only available copy of Hermes’ silver purse. At one glance, she outshined every other girl in the room.Without any make-up on, Catherine’s hair was pulled into a side ponytail. Amidst the air of nobility was an adorable quality to her.Although Catherine wasn’t wearing any jewelry accessories, she still shone bright
Henry Armstrong and Stanley Batton were good friends who grew up together.Henry watched Catherine Batton grow up.To him, Catherine was like his own biological sister.“No, thank you… I’m fine with just watching…” Catherine said.“Catherine… Would you like to play snooker with us?” One of the pretty rich kids waved at Catherine.“Catherine, do you want to play some drinking games with us?”“How about joining us in Truth or Dare by throwing some dice?”Two rich guys invited Catherine to join them. Each of them had an extremely polite and gentle tone.Catherine was the center of attention, and everyone wanted to get on her good side.However, Catherine wasn’t interested at all…She immediately waved her hands at them. “No, thank you. I’ll just watch Henry play mahjong here… So go ahead and enjoy yourselves. Don’t mind me…”Watching Catherine respond so casually to those rich kids made the female celebrities and female influencers even more envious of her.To keep these rich
“When I was your age, I didn’t use any skincare products at all. That’s because I read online that one only needed to start using skincare products at the age of twenty-five. As a result, my skin is really terrible now…”“Me too, me too. Miss Batton, you really are intelligent… You’ve started taking care of your skin at an early age. People like us were really harmed by those bullsh*t on the internet.”Two female influencers spoke one after another as if they were in a two-person act.Catherine Batton chuckled again. “Indeed, myths like only needing to start looking after one’s skin at twenty-five have harmed a lot of people…”The two female influencers nodded in agreement.Right then, someone pushed the door open once again…Jenny Armstrong walked in wearing a blue, genuine-silk halter dress.The hem of her dress reached her kneecap, revealing her thin, fair calves as well as her feet on a pair of silver high heels. At one glance, she was practically the definition of an extrem
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.
