When Xyla Quest heard the voice, a sensation of numbness settled over her head.The workers were also nervous as their eyes widened in terror.Stanley Batton frowned slightly before glancing around. He then turned toward the direction where the sound came from.Seeing this, Xyla subconsciously grabbed his hand tightly, mustering the courage to look in the same direction.The scream had come from the seventh room where they found the coffin.Xyla felt the numbness worsen.Could the sound have come from the corpse in the coffin?The others were also looking in the direction of the coffin, a tensed mood settling over them.With the entire world falling silent, it was as if they could even hear a pin drop.It was the kind of deadly silence that people were most afraid of.Xyla’s nerves had also gotten tense as she tightened her grip on her husband's hand.Under such circumstances, Stanley was her only source of security.It felt like she was holding onto a floating log to stop

It was so dark that nobody could even see their fingers in front of them.Everybody started talking at once... many even screamed out loud.Overwhelmed with fear once again, a strange force suddenly lifted Xyla Quest, her body flying forward rapidly.It happened so fast that she couldn’t react in time.She could not even cry for help, even if she wanted to.It felt as if there was a restriction in her throat that stopped her from making any sound.Her body floated in the air and moved forward as if she was in outer space where gravity no longer existed.The darkness intensified feelings of fear, and at this very moment, Xyla had never been more scared.Her heart was also beating faster and faster as if it would soon leap out of her chest.The strong sense of fear caused her mind to go blank.Right then, Xyla felt that she had lost complete control of her body, where a strange force was whirling her around like a spinning top in the air.And then, her body stopped mid-air.W

The girl before Xyla seemed to be around sixteen or seventeen.Her skin was fair and smooth. She was skinny, but with curves in all the right places.The girl had adorable bangs.Her facial features made her seem like she was from mixed heritage. There wasn’t a single flaw on her body.Xyla Quest subconsciously looked around her.She had a shadow, which meant she wasn't a ghost.She was human.Xyla took a deep breath and looked at her. “You… who are you? Are you that corpse?”The girl blinked. “Yes.”There was a youthfulness in her voice, and she sounded pleasant.At that moment, she appeared to be harmless. However, Xyla was still wary of her.Xyla frowned. “Did you do those things to me because… you’re angry at me? Is that it? Do you think I’ve taken away your possessions?“If that’s the case, I’m willing to return everything,” Xyla added.However, the girl shook her head and blinked again, highlighting her long eyelashes.Whenever she blinked, her eyelashes would flutt

Xyla Quest subconsciously took a step back. Her heart was still filled with terror, but she remained calm on the surface. “What are you doing?”The girl smiled. “If I wanted to do anything, I would’ve done it by now. Do you think I’d keep you here until now?”'That made sense, too.'Even so, Xyla still didn’t let her guard down.“What exactly do you want?”The girl smiled again, showing her white and immaculate teeth.Right away, the girl knelt in front of Xyla. “Master, I’ve been waiting for you here for a long time.”Xyla was suddenly dumbfounded. What did she mean by that?“Why were you waiting for me? What do you mean?” Xyla asked.“I have been waiting for you for over 1900 years, and now you’re finally here, Master,” the girl said in earnest.Xyla couldn't be more confused. 1900 years?She had been waiting for Xyla for over 1900 years.“Why were you waiting for me?” Xyla asked.“Allow me to introduce myself," the girl replied. "I’m a princess from Warrington. My

“That god even told me that the person who would resurrect me is my master, and if I wanted to repay my master’s kindness, I would have to stay by their side and protect them.“I asked about the duration I would need to protect my master, and he told me that I’d have to do it until a time he thought to be sufficient.“I had a vivid memory of him with white hair and a white beard, wearing a long white robe. He struck me as a kind and righteous old man.“I asked him what his rank was in the celestial realm, but he didn’t answer me. He left right after that,” Sophie Kenwick explained.Her words made Xyla Quest feel even more perplexed.After listening to all this, Xyla sensed that the god did not have any nefarious intention. He had intentionally planned for Sophie to protect Xyla.But why did it have to be Sophie?Xyla frowned slightly. “Why you, though?”Sophie shook her head. “I don’t know either. There were many things he refused to divulge despite my interrogations. He just k

Sophie Kenwick laughed. “Yeah, that is great. However, the god didn’t tell me who my father and kins had reincarnated into due to heavenly secrets and all.“I may not know who they are, but I’m happy enough to know that they lived wonderful lives each time they reincarnated.“Honestly, waiting for you in this dark place was torturous, but thank you for finally coming to me and letting me become human again. Now I can finally see the light…“I am so grateful to you because that god told me that my loved ones would all receive a tremendous blessing after I become human again.“Because of your arrival, they will have even better lives in the future,” Sophie said with an earnest look in her eyes.Xyla couldn’t help herself from reaching out to hold her hands. “What about you? Will your life get better too?”“Yes, as a matter of fact, I’ve acquired immortality," Sophie answered. "I get to live forever.”“That’s pretty nice.”“I don’t think so. All my loved ones are gone. There’s no

Sophie Kenwick’s words made Xyla Quest feel increasingly curious about the god she had mentioned.Why was he helping her?Why did it have to be Sophie?“Why did it have to be you?” Xyla asked.Sophie shook her head. There was a brightness in her eyes. “I don’t know either.”“I asked him a lot of questions, but he wouldn’t answer any of them. He either said he couldn’t reveal heavenly secrets or that I would naturally find out when the time is right.” Sophie’s eyes suddenly lit up after she finished her sentence.“Oh, right. He mentioned…” Sophie trailed off.“What?” Xyla asked.“He mentioned I would receive a special reward once I’ve done well enough, but he didn’t tell me specifically what it was,” Sophie said.“I kept asking for more details, and he replied that it was something I greatly desired. After that, he left.” The more Xyla heard, the more mysterious she found this god.Xyla believed that there should be a special reason why Sophie was the one sent to help her.

Sophie Kenwick’s magic was truly on a whole different level.Next, Sophie brought down the wall that separated Xyla Quest from the current chamber and the sixth room.The outside world appeared before Xyla’s eyes once again.Right then, everyone outside was in a petrified state.They all stood still with blank stares in their eyes, while their postures and facial expressions were all different.Stanley Batton was also in a similar state.The only difference was that Stanley looked slightly better than the rest.Right then, Stanley had his hands in his pockets as he stood still. His gaze was deep, and his demeanor was cold as usual.Even if Stanley had turned into a statue, he’d still be the most handsome one.Xyla instantly panicked.She quickly walked up to him and reached out to touch his face. “Darling? Darling!”Right then, everyone suddenly reverted to normal again, letting out a long sigh.Stanley looked tenderly at his wife. “Honey, do you feel warm?”Meanwhile, the

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.
