Even from across the wide road, Cindy Dunn could sense Stanley Batton’s kingly aura.It was the kind of aura that belonged to a successful person.The kind of man Cindy wanted was handsome, rich, and noble, just like Stanley.Only men like him deserved Cindy.When Cindy thought of this, her smile widened.Meanwhile, Stanley was utterly unaware that he had become Cindy’s target.The managerial staff in the subsidiary company before him respectfully bowed to him.“Welcome to our subsidiary company in City S, Mr. Batton. We await your instructions…” They shouted simultaneously.After that, the subsidiary company’s young, handsome CEO approached Stanley and respectfully invited him inside.When the large group of people marched into the office, everyone inside felt tense.The two pretty receptionists at the front desk instantly became stunned speechless by Stanley’s good looks the moment he walked in.However, due to Stanley’s imposing manner, they forced themselves to speak.“

There was a vague sweet scent of plums.It was sweet but not overwhelming.Soon, the person fell to the ground. She quickly looked up at Stanley Batton and apologized. “I’m sorry… That wasn’t on purpose. I was in a hurry…”With that, Cindy Dunn carefully stood up and acted as if she was greatly shocked. Then, she quickly backed away and pointed at Stanley. “You… Aren’t you our president?”“I’m sorry, Mr. Batton…” In the next second, Cindy quickly bowed deeply to Stanley…Stanley had a cold expression on his face.He didn’t show any emotion at all.Stanley scanned Cindy up and down, but he couldn’t remember where he’d seen her before.He wasn’t interested either.“It’s you again. Why are you here?” Stanley’s bodyguard recognized Cindy instantly.“You said you weren’t following us… So what are you up to now?” the bodyguard added…“I wasn’t… My friend works here. I’m waiting for her to get off work…” Cindy replied.Stanley didn’t look at her again. Instead, he slowly shifted h

“Not to be mean or anything, but shouldn’t some people look in the mirror before they try to seduce a man? They should at least check if they’re better than the man’s wife.”“Precisely… How could a skanky b*tch be compared to a noblewoman? She’s living in her head.”“Girls these days overestimate themselves…”“You’re far too polite. You should say girls these days are shameless. They’d do anything to get what they want… Unfortunately, she went for the wrong guy.”The managerial staff in the subsidiary company couldn’t stand it anymore. So they began criticizing Cindy Dunn.None of them was afraid of anything.They spoke their minds openly…Meanwhile, Cindy felt even more embarrassed.Their words were like slaps to her face one after another.She immediately took a deep breath before running across the road and got into her car.Seeing that Stanley’s entourage of cars was still within her line of sight, Cindy immediately tried to follow them…Although Stanley was very cold to

“I’ll get it for you right away,” the sales assistant said respectfully. After that, she quickly went to the cashier and retrieved an orange bag with a Hermes logo before handing it over to Stanley…There was an intricately packaged gift box inside the bag…“Okay,” Stanley Batton said before looking around…Since he didn’t see any item he fancied buying, he turned around and exited the store…Right then, he heard a group of managerial staff in the mall running up to the Hermes store’s entrance like madmen.When these people saw Stanley, they lined up neatly in a row and bowed to him respectfully. “Greetings, Mr. Batton…” They shouted simultaneously.“Why are you here?” Stanley asked.“Someone downstairs informed us that you’re here. That’s why we quickly came over. Are you personally here to buy something?” The mall’s young, handsome general manager asked respectfully with his head lowered.The huge formation attracted a lot of attention…Stanley frowned slightly. “Okay.”“Do

Stanley Batton didn’t say anything unnecessary.He didn’t even allow his gaze to linger.Soon, the bodyguards in front of him surrounded Cindy and forcefully lifted her. They then walked out of Stanley’s line of sight…Despite Cindy Dunn’s struggles, it was of no help.There were many people in the mall…Everyone was looking at her.The mocking looks and smirks on their faces were like knives that stabbed deep into her heart.She felt painfully humiliated…Right then, she wished she could hide in a hole and never come out.Cindy was good-looking and seductive.Whenever she took the initiative, men would fall for her.

After a busy day, Stanley Batton finally made it home in the heavy snowfall.He could see the lights in the house were left on for him the moment he looked up.That was the most heart-warming feeling in the world.Although it was chilly outside due to the gusting winds, he felt warm on the inside…Stanley ordered his men to move all the things he had bought into the living room.After that, he walked into the house in a carefree manner.The heavy snowing continued.When he walked inside, there was snow on his shoulder and hair.Stanley gently flicked the snow away using the tip of his finger. After that, he changed into his slippers and walked up the stairs.The temperature in the house was up to thirty degrees.It felt just like summer.After entering the house, he started feeling very warm.He then took off his black coat and placed it over his arm.Barely making any noise, he walked upstairs and toward the master bedroom.As soon as he pushed the door open, he could se

Stanley Batton picked up the call earnestly. “Professor Caines…”“Sorry to be calling you this late. When your assistant, Zack Cassidy, delivered the stuff to me today, I was occupied with something else and forgot about it…“I only remembered half an hour ago. Hence, I quickly got up and did the verification test for you. When the results came out, I gave Zack a call…“Zack told me that you weren’t asleep yet and that you just returned from a business trip. He asked me to contact you…“Back when Zack delivered the stuff to me, I had a critical governmental task. I wanted to test your stuff for you after I was done…“Who knew… After I was done, other governmental tasks came one after another. I… Uhm…” Professor Caines sounded like he was drowned in self-blame.Stanley pinched his forehead exhaustedly. After that, he looked at Xyla Quest, who seemed all ears. He tapped on the loudspeaker button.After that, he gently ruffled Xyla’s hair and looked at the phone. “So, what’s the re

Xyla Quest barely had to do anything to win the match.In just twelve minutes, her teammates had carried her to victory.Thanks to the game, she was successfully distracted.However, the moment the game ended, her thoughts began to cloud again.Xyla wondered what would happen to her and Stanley Batton next.She also wondered what kind of trouble their creditor would stir up in their lives.When she thought of this, she subconsciously rubbed her stomach.She was still carrying her unborn children.Xyla felt truly afraid that enmities among the adults might end up harming the children.She felt even more flustered at this thought.After taking a deep breath, Xyla glanced at the clock on the wall.Sensing that Stanley should almost be done cooking the noodles, she put on her slippers and headed downstairs.The indoor temperature was very high.Xyla was only wearing a thin, silk pajama.Even so, she still felt very warm.When she made it downstairs, she was shocked by all th

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.
