Annabeth Cates’ cousin began tearing up. “Anyway, I’m sorry…”“Alright, let’s stop talking about these,” Bobby said.“What are your thoughts on this now?” Annabeth looked at her cousin and asked.Right then, Annabeth was still filled with rage. All she wanted was for the jerk to die…Annabeth’s cousin immediately wiped her tears away. She then went down on her knees.Annabeth panicked when she saw this.She immediately bent over and tried to get her cousin to stand up.However, her cousin refused to budge. “Annabeth, don’t pull me up. I have something to ask of you…”Annabeth seemed frantic. “If there’s anything you want to tell me, just get up and say it. Don’t do this. I can’t accept this,” she said.With that, Annabeth also kneeled in front of her cousin and held her hand tightly.“Annabeth… I know the Batton family has all the power in the world. Can I ask you to find a way to keep that man in prison forever?“As long as he’s out there, our family will never have a day o

Their family could finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.“Thank you. Honestly, thank you so much…” Annabeth Cates’ cousin stammered as she cried.In the next second, she hugged Sharon Lindt and started bawling her eyes out.She knew that, from this moment on, the dark moments she had suffered for decades would soon come to an end.It was truly incredible!Everything was finally coming to an end.She knew that she could lead a normal life again.She began to swear an oath in her heart.She swore that she would remember Annabeth and the Batton family’s kind deed for the rest of her life.She’d be willing to die for them if that was necessary.Annabeth gently hugged her cousin from behind. “Alright, stop crying. Good days are ahead of you. Shouldn’t you be smiling?”Annabeth’s cousin repeatedly nodded, but she was still crying profusely…Only god knew how long she had been waiting for this moment.Initially, she thought that she would never be able to escape from th

When Annabeth Cates’ cousin heard this, she immediately shook her head. “Are you kidding me? I don’t have any educational qualifications or good family background. I’m an ugly, middle-aged woman. How could I get all these things?”Although Annabeth’s cousin wanted the things Sharon Lindt mentioned, she knew that she would never acquire those things in her lifetime.To her, the biggest joy would be to get rid of her terrible husband and live a peaceful life with her son.She didn’t dare to hope for other things.However, Sharon smiled and patted her gently on the shoulders. “You can accomplish those things if I help you, right?”“How will you help me?” Annabeth’s cousin asked.“What’s your highest educational qualification?” Sharon asked.“Middle school.”“How about working as our housekeeper? You’ll get 30,000 dollars a month, and the job comes with accommodation too… Not only that, but I will also plan for your son to live in Atlantis too… He’ll get to study in the best school

Besides, Sharon Lindt felt that Annabeth Cates must have been thinking the same thing.“Also, you’ve lived such a dark and horrid life in this small town for the longest time. I believe you’d want to leave this place for a new one, don’t you?” Sharon asked.Her words gradually tempted Cindy Schumer… However, Cindy’s pride and ego were still urging her not to agree.“Cindy, to be honest, I think Aunt Lindt’s suggestion is a good one…” Annabeth felt convinced too.“Alright, it’s been decided… Let’s not talk about this further. As for which job you’ll take up, we’ll arrange it once you get to Atlantis,” Sharon said irrefutably.“It’s really fine…” Cindy shook her head again.“Weren’t you very thankful to us for helping you? If that’s the case, you must do as we say. Otherwise, we won’t help you…” Sharon insisted.Suddenly, Cindy couldn’t find the words to respond…She felt caught in the middle.“It’s been decided,” Wilson Batton chipped in.Seeing how the Batton family acted,

“I’m terribly sorry you had to see something like this on your first trip to visit us…” Peggy Howards said apologetically as she looked at the Batton family.She had heard from the old lady downstairs about everything that had happened earlier.That old lady was a witness.“It’s fine. None of you wanted this, no?” Sharon Lindt was very understanding of the situation. She didn’t think it was a big deal.Peggy let out a long, helpless sigh.“Mom, Aunt Lindt has already said she’d help Cindy get a divorce. She’d also make sure her husband stays in prison forever. So he’ll never be able to come out and wreak havoc again,” Annabeth Cates said as she held Peggy’s hand tightly.When Peggy heard this, she sighed in relief.For so many years, their entire family had been through so much terror because of Cindy Schumer’s marriage…The entire family would even dream of this day coming.They all hated Cindy’s husband to the core, but they couldn’t do anything to him because of his connect

Soon, the helicopter arrived above Annabeth Cates’s house.Her house was in a run-down neighborhood in town.Right then, it happened to be lunchtime. So there were many people out and about.When these people heard a helicopter, they all looked at it.While everyone watched, the pilot landed the helicopter on an empty piece of flat ground in front of Annabeth’s house.Over a hundred bodyguards got out of the helicopter first…Then, they lined up on both sides of the helicopter in an organized manner.The huge formation garnered a lot of attention from the locals around the area.Peggy Howards was the first to get out of the helicopter.Immediately after that, Josh Batton and Annabeth also got out of the helicopter.Finally, it was Wilson Batton and Sharon Lindt’s turn to get out.This was the most run-down place Sharon had ever been to in her life.She couldn’t help but look around as soon as her feet landed on the ground.Everything that came into sight made her feel sorr

Peggy Howards was out of breath as she looked at the Batton family. “Are you tired?” she asked.Sharon Lindt immediately shook her head. “Not at all…”“That’s great…” Peggy said.After saying that, Peggy quickly opened the front door. “Please come in, Ms. Lindt, Mr. Batton, and Josh. Our house is small and run-down. I hope you won’t mind…” Peggy said.“Why would we?” Wilson Batton said.After that, Annabeth Cates and Peggy led them into the house.Once everyone had changed into slippers, Annabeth led the Batton family into the living room.Their house was tiny as it was only sixty square feet in total. Hence, the living room was very small.It also had a simple design, with only white paint on the walls and white tiles on the floor.Due to years of wear and tear, the tiles had already turned slightly yellowish.Sharon was taken aback by the state of the house.After looking around, Sharon sat down with Wilson and Josh Batton.Due to her busy work schedule, Annabeth hadn’t b

Although Annabeth Cates wasn’t as beautiful as her other daughters-in-law, Sharon Lindt still adored her.Sharon felt that Annabeth was a gentle and likable girl.“Let Josh do it. Don’t worry. Just stay here with me,” Sharon said as she affectionately ruffled Annabeth’s hair.“I don’t feel good that he is doing so much work. It’s his first time coming to my house,” Annabeth said.“What’s wrong with that? He should be busy on his first visit to the in-laws’ place. That would make your mother feel more secure…” Sharon said.“Alright then…” Annabeth said.“Annabeth, have you thought about taking your parents to Atlantis? They’re getting old. I think you should live closer to them… “We have many houses in Atlantis. Could we take your parents with us?“Once we’re there, your parents can pick whichever house we own… We’ll transfer the ownership to your parents later…“Medical facilities in Atlantis are better than here. Besides, you’d be closer to them. It’s easier for you to look

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.

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

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.
