It was Zack Cassidy…Stanley Batton immediately answered the call.“Mr. Batton, you’re not asleep yet,” Zack said.“Not yet. What’s the matter?” Stanley asked.“Nothing much. I just wanted to ask if I could take leave to return to my hometown…“My mother just called. She said my father doesn’t have much time left…” Zack said.He sounded like he had been crying.When Stanley heard this, his facial expression instantly became stern.He quickly handed over the food in his hands to Xyla Quest.After that, he took a step forward. “Okay… Take my private helicopter… You can use any of my resources… You don’t have to inform me what you’ve used,” Stanley said.In a luxury bedroom on the other side, Zack’s eyes filled with tears when he heard this…He instantly sniffed and tried to maintain his masculine composure. “Alright… Thank you, Mr. Batton…”After that, Zack hung up.When he recalled what Stanley said, he immediately felt warmth spread in his chest.He silently swore in his

After that, she turned on the faucet and picked up her toothbrush. She put some toothpaste on the toothbrush and began to brush her teeth…The two of them focused on their tasks.When Xyla finished brushing her teeth, Stanley happened to be done with his bath.He reached for a towel from a nearby rack to dry his hair and body.After that, he reached for a bathrobe and slowly put it on.With his hair still wet, he walked over to Xyla.Not saying a word, he picked Xyla up and put her on their large bed.His simple act was a huge tease for Xyla.Stanley pressed the tip of his nose again

It was Stanley Batton’s phone that rang.Stanley slowly picked up his phone and glanced at it.It was a friend request on WeChat.The person’s profile picture was a charming female anime avatar.Her nickname was ‘Sexy Chick’.Stanley frowned slightly before locking his phone and tossing it aside.He did now show any unnecessary emotions from the beginning.Xyla naturally wrapped her arms around his neck. “Who was that?” she asked softly.“I don’t know. It’s a friend request. I ignored it,” Stanley said.“Why did you ignore it? What if it’s someone important?” Xyla asked.“From that nickname, it doesn’t sound like someone important,” Stanley said.“Alright then… It’s probably a beautiful lady who has a crush on you…” Xyla said.With that, Xyla chuckled for a moment as she joked around with Stanley.She wasn’t curious about that person’s nickname.Many people longed to be with Stanley. One more or one less didn’t make a difference.“Let’s continue with our topic earlier. T

They were thinking of the nine-tailed fox demon.Suddenly, Xyla Quest thought of something…She sat upright and looked at Stanley Batton.“Honey… Are you asleep?” Xyla asked.Stanley slowly opened his eyes. “Hmm, not yet…”“Did you give Professor Caines all the fox fur?” Xyla asked.“Yeah. What’s the matter?” Stanley asked.“I suddenly thought of something…” Xyla said.“What is it?” Stanley asked.“When I use my special vision, I can see an object’s history…” Xyla said.“Do you think I could do so too if I use my special vision on the fox fur?“If I could, I’d be able to see what happened to the fox before it lost its fur, as well as what it looked like…“Perhaps, I might even be able to see the fox’s past…“Although I’m fairly certain that the nine-tailed fox from my dreams was the one that hurt our maid… I still want to use my special vision to find out… I want to see if it’s possible to look into this nine-tailed fox’s past,” Xyla said.One could only win a fight by kn

Xyla Quest saw a white nine-tailed fox strolling near her family’s house.When a cold breeze blew against it, it slowly opened its mouth.It had extremely sharp fangs.The fangs looked completely different from those of ordinary foxes.It sent chills down Xyla’s spine.After the fox strolled around for a while, it turned into a golden ray of light.In the next second, it teleported into the Quest family’s garden.Right then, the maid who was previously injured walked over.The fox pounced at the maid.After injuring the maid’s eye, it turned into a golden ray of light and disappeared.When it disappeared, it left behind quite a fair amount of fur.Those white fur was then dispersed by the northerly winds, leaving the maid behind on her own as she screamed in pain and fell to the ground.Xyla continued to use her special vision…However, she couldn’t see anything else.The scene of the maid falling to the ground was the last one.The golden light…The nine-tailed fox.T

“Yaksha, why did you want to see me previously?” Xyla Quest asked.Xyla recalled that she did personally call Yaksha to explain why she couldn’t meet him back then.She also recalled asking Yaksha why he asked her to come over.However, Yaksha hadn’t answered her then.He only told her to come over when she was free and that he’d speak to her in person.Xyla could sense that it was something significant.It was so crucial that Yaksha had to speak to her in person.“Come here and have a seat…” Yaksha made an inviting gesture toward the coffee table.Xyla naturally held Stanley Batton’s hand. They then walked over to the coffee table and sat down.Soon, Yaksha sat from across Xyla.Yaksha first picked up two clean teacups and poured tea into them.He placed one teacup in front of Stanley and the other in front of Xyla.Immediately after that, Yaksha chuckled. “I’ve invented a unique pill that can cure leukemia. A single pill would be enough to cure a patient of various types

“You’re the kindest,” Xyla Quest said with a chuckle.“Let’s stop complimenting each other… Oh, right. You called to say there was something else you wanted to discuss. What was it?” Yaksha asked.Xyla proceeded to tell Yaksha about all her recent dreams and what happened to her maid at home…She also told Yaksha everything about what she saw with her X-ray vision.Yaksha’s gaze instantly became stern when he heard these things…He fell silent.He seemed to be deep in thought.“Yaksha… I’m very certain the thing that harmed my maid was the nine-tailed fox demon from my dreams…“I think it might be my creditor from my past life, right? I know you can’t reveal too much, or it might affect your right to cultivate toward becoming a god.“But I really want to know how to deal with it right now. Must I wait for it to come to us as you said before?“Wouldn’t we be sitting ducks?” Xyla asked.“Wait for it. Once it shows up, you and Stanley will naturally find a way to deal with it…

While looking at the snowy scenery, the look in Yaksha’s eyes became even more melancholic…The look of concern became increasingly apparent.After taking a deep breath, he slowly exhaled.He then looked at the snowing sky and murmured to himself, “I hope the two of you can get through it…“If you can get through it, things will get better…“If you can’t…” Yaksha became silent all of a sudden.A look of concern flashed in his eyes.After a minute, he still seemed worried.Yaksha let out a long sigh before recollecting himself and returning to the coffee table.He brewed a new pot of tea.After that, he silently waited for Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton.Once Xyla and Stanley had retrieved the items upstairs, they returned to Yaksha while holding each other’s hand.Stanley was the one carrying all the stuff.He put the items on the coffee table. After that, he and Xyla sat in their original seats.“These are all for you… Keep them… Apart from the formula for leukemia medici

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.
