Being awake in the middle of the night was the worst feeling ever.That was because one couldn’t help but think about troubling thoughts when one was awake.After rolling about until it was close to the break of dawn, Xyla finally fell asleep.Fortunately, she didn’t dream this time.Instead, she slept until noon.At noon the next day, Xyla woke up naturally.When she opened her eyes, the curtains had been drawn shut.The thick curtains kept the sunlight out. She couldn’t tell if it was day or night.As Xyla had slept well, she felt extremely relaxed.After taking a deep breath, she casually stretched and opened her eyes.

His facial expression was cold.There was a large group of high-level executives behind him, as well as a group of bodyguards.Everyone seemed timid and careful…Stanley wore a black shirt, a fitting high-class suit, and a custom-made, high-class coat…He seemed unspeakably noble.

“Also…” Stanley Batton said.“Oh, stop nagging. Are you my father?” Sometimes, Xyla Quest felt like Stanley was her father instead of her husband.The way Stanley nagged at her without an end in sight reminded her very much of her father…In fact, he was even worse than her father.Although Xyla was complaining, she liked it…“Alright, I’ll stop nagging. Be good, okay? I’ll buy you a gift when I go back… What would you like?” Stanley asked.“Nothing in particular. Buy whatever you want…” Xyla said.“Okay.” Stanley slowly hung up. There was a vague smile on his face.He looked very attractive.His gentleness charmed everyone present…The women, especially, wished they were Xyla instead.Who wouldn’t want a rich, handsome, and perfect man like him?Suddenly, the women couldn’t help but start looking at each other…Everyone was jealous of Xyla.Soon, Stanley’s gentle expression disappeared.In its place was his usual cold expression.Everyone found it hard to get used to t

When Brenda Stratford heard what Cindy Dunn said, she immediately glared at Cindy. “How could you say something like that? If the president’s wife heard you, you’ll be in deep trouble…”Cindy chuckled coldly.After that, she slowly opened her drawer and retrieved her Lamer concealer.She slowly applied it onto her face using a mirror. “I’m speaking the truth. There isn’t a man in this world who wouldn’t cheat. But, if there was, it’d only be because the woman wasn’t his type…“If she were his type, he wouldn't even hesitate… That’s all,” Cindy said before raising her hands and laughing hysterically…Brenda rolled her eyes. “Tsk… Go on, be sour about it… I think you’re just jealous.”“Jealous?

Have you had lunch?”Stanley smiled. “I’m on the way to lunch,” Stanley said.“Eat something nice… Don’t skip lunch just because you’re busy. You must send me a picture of what you had for lunch later… I have to make sure you’ve eaten,” Xyla said.“Roger that,” Stanley said.Xyla replied with an adorable smiley emoji.The entourage of cars moved forward stably.A black BMW followed from behind in a low-key fashion.The person in the driver’s seat was Cindy.To avoid being noticed, she drove very carefully.Stanley first went to a nearby high-class restaurant for lunch…After that, he headed directly to Cit

“I was driving properly on the road. What’s wrong with you? How could you do this to me…” Cindy Dunn continued to act innocent. To make herself seem righteous, she even pretended to be angry.A beautiful woman looked good even when she was angry.All sorts of emotions were expressed through microexpressions on her face.One of the bodyguards looked sternly at Cindy. “Where are you headed to?”“What does that have anything to do with you? Do you own this road?” Cindy frowned coldly.The bodyguard was speechless.“If you don’t stop, I’m going to call the cops…” Cindy said.The bodyguard remained stern. He didn’t believe her at all. “Speak. Where are you headed to?”“I’m going to City S…” Cindy said.“I doubt you’ve just happened to be following us… If I didn’t remember wrongly, you were behind us back in the city…” The bodyguard said.Cindy pinched her forehead helplessly. “In the city? When was that? Oh, right… It’s a coincidence. What’s the matter?”“Show me your identity ca

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

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

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.

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.

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.
