However, if one paid close attention, one would discover that the rooms were actually connected.All the stone walls in between the rooms were mobile, controlled by mechanisms in antique vases of different designs placed outside the walls.As long as the vases were moved slightly, countless arrows would be fired from all directions.Xyla frowned in deep concentration while she continued to use her penetrating vision to observe those hidden mechanisms.She discovered that they had a flaw… the arrows were all positioned higher up, meaning that nothing would go wrong as long as people were on the ground when the arrows were fired.After solving the puzzle, Xyla let out a long sigh of relief. She then continued to scan the area, finding nothing else apart from those she had discovered.After letting out another long sigh, Xyla turned to address Darren. “It’s fine, I’ll go down and have a look. You can all stay up here and wait for me.”She needed to go down and deactivate those boob

“How about this? If you must go down there, let me come with you. I’ve studied things like these before, too. No matter what, I can’t let you go down there on your own,” Frederick Shaw insisted.“I must come with you too, Ms. Quest. We can’t just watch while you put your life in danger,” one bodyguard said.“That’s right, I’m coming too," another said. "If any danger should arise, I’ll die on your behalf.”“I want to come along, too. I also want to die in Ms. Quest’s place,” yet another bodyguard spoke up.They had been working by her side all this while and Xyla's personality had won them over. Ensuring her safety and security had started as a job, but now it was out of their free will.Xyla was such a wonderful person and deserved to live a good life.Soon, the other bodyguards also expressed their willingness to protect her with their lives.Xyla chuckled helplessly despite being overcome with emotions. “All right, don’t get all excited. I’ll be fine, I promise.”“Things are

The temperature was warm during winter and cool during summer inside the mine.Although it was chilly on the surface, it felt like summer underground.Xyla Quest took a few steps forward, already drenched in sweat.Soon, she removed her coat and tossed it aside, revealing her flattering physique.Her white, tight-fitting jumper accentuated the curves of her body perfectly.There were curves in all the right places, just like a barbie doll.Her black, skinny pants and white sneakers lengthened her shapely legs.After a considerable time walking through the tunnel, Xyla finally arrived at the entrance to the underground palace that had a huge gap from the blast.Two people could fit through it.Piles of rocks littered around the area after the explosions, now broken into pieces.A strong stench of explosives lingered in the air.Although it was pungent, Xyla could still bear with it.Frowning slightly, she carefully made her way through the entrance and into a room in the und

The second room was also full of rare treasures, even more than the first one Xyla Quest had entered.Before she could even properly admire them, arrows fired towards her from all directions.She tensed, despite knowing the arrows couldn’t hurt her.Paying close attention to her surroundings, Xyla managed to dodge all the arrows as they brushed past her shoulders. They missed her only to lodge between gaps on the wall.After ten minutes of arrows being fired, it finally quietened down.Xyla quickly activated her penetrating vision to ensure the coast was clear before she walked into the room before her.Apart from more pearls, gold, jade artifacts, and gemstones, there were various antique vases of different designs.Xyla didn’t have time to dwell on them as she walked past those treasures to another wall before repeating her earlier method and avoiding another barrage of arrows.Just like that, another wall moved to reveal a room filled with more gold bars, precious gemstones,

Xyla Quest could estimate the period these treasures were from by briefly glancing through them, putting them at roughly the first or second century.From the markings on those objects, they presumably belonged to the end of the second century.Every single thing was priceless here.Just a few of those shimmering pearls would be sufficient to purchase all the highest quality jade produced in the mine.The beauty in here was suffocating to Xyla.Soon, she shifted her gaze to the white jade coffin surrounded by treasures.It had a high-quality finish covered in spectacular details.Xyla carefully treaded past countless rare treasures to stand before the uncovered casket.A corpse with a luxurious crown on its head came directly into sight.The corpse, which appeared to be tall, was a terrifying sight.Countless bright pearls the size of regular glass pearls surround the corpse.Though small, they glowed vividly.Apart from them, there were also many pearl necklaces as well as

Mary Sullivan instantly became quiet.A few seconds later, Mary turned to look at Cain Hollander. “Just wait and see... she’s doomed.”Cain nodded repeatedly, not daring to argue with her.In the meantime, Mary seemed smug.“Why are you still here?” One of the bodyguards yelled at her when he saw that she still hadn’t left.Seeing Mary’s face compelled him to slap her.Mary immediately straightened her facial expression. “Can’t I sit around?”‘I want to sit here and see Xyla’s corpse,’ Mary thought.“Get lost, you’re not welcome here. You’re an annoying sight,” the bodyguard said.Mary slowly stood up but made no effort to leave.The bodyguard couldn’t be bothered to waste time on her, so he directly turned around.Mary sneered in satisfaction before shifting her gaze to the bottomless mine entrance.Frederick Shaw had a worried expression on his face. He sighed while looking at the mine entrance. “I hope nothing happens to this kid… she’s such a wonderful girl.”‘Please l

Xyla Quest laughed. “No, there were dangerous booby traps, but I was lucky enough to dodge all of them.”She sounded very calm, but the people who heard her weren’t calm at all.Everyone felt immensely terrified in retrospect.What? There was danger? And booby traps?How could she effortlessly evade all of them and resurface completely unharmed, despite knowing nothing about the situation down there?Frederick Shaw found Xyla even more baffling now. “What kind of traps were there, my young friend?”Xyla laughed. “To be honest, it’s not a big deal. There were arrows, that's all.”Frederick and Xyla’s bodyguards were speechless.What did Xyla mean by that?Didn’t that sound terrifying enough?How did she manage to dodge them all?How could she sound so casual, as if she had just gone down for a vacation?Mary Sullivan also found what she heard unbelievable.Why was Xyla so lucky?Arrows?Ordinary people would have died under those circumstances.Why wasn’t Xyla dead?

Mary Sullivan suddenly felt even more flustered when she caught sight of Xyla Quest’s gaze on her.Mary instantly frowned and stood up, staring at Bodyguard C. “What? When did I say those things? You must have heard wrongly.”“What’s the matter? You dared to say those things, but you’re not brave enough to admit it?” the bodyguard asked.“I heard her too, loud and clear. Mary, chop your head off,” another Bodyguard D said.Xyla didn’t interrupt and allowed her bodyguards to criticize Mary, not feeling sympathetic to her in the slightest.Xyla had never been a saint. There was no reason to feel sorry for someone who hurt her before and wished she was dead.Mary was speechless, feeling her face warming at this awkward situation.Mary felt very unsettled.After taking a deep breath, she started stammering. “About that, I-I… I was wrong, okay? Besides, it was a private conversation between Cain and me. He is the only one who gets to say if he wants my head off or not.”Cain prompt

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.
