Chapter 1832

Author: Moonlight
“I envy Xyla. She’s constantly missed by so many handsome men.”

“I envy Xyla, too. In fact, I’m a little jealous of her.”

“All the handsome guys I like are associated with Xyla in one way or another. She is so lucky.”

These days, Xyla would only briefly go through comments on the internet.

She would never take them too seriously.

After browsing around for a while, Xyla closed the topic and turned her attention to current news.

Approximately an hour later, Stanley Batton came out from the bathroom, fresh from his shower.

He dried his hair with a towel, letting his black hair naturally fall against his face. There was a laid-back vibe to his overall look.

Stanley had nothing on except for a white bath towel, baring his perfectly sculpted body for her to see.

He looked lean even with clothes on, but now, his fit physique was even more apparent. Despite seeing him naked countless times, Xyla still couldn’t resist the temptation.

Stanley approached his wife slowly, his expression

    The breakfast Xyla Quest requested was fully prepared.The newly purchased square dining table had a spotless white tablecloth over it. Everything seemed pristine and intricate.Xyla walked directly into the dining room, immediately taking her seat when she saw that her breakfast was ready.Picking up her utensils, she began to eat.Meanwhile, Stanley Batton sat next to her while he ate, reading the financial news on his phone. He didn't want to miss anything important in the world of finance.“Darling, I will be going to the national treasury to verify the items. Then, I’ll donate half of them to the country,” Xyla told him.“Okay, as you wish,” he replied.Xyla smiled happily in return.Stanley left promptly after finishing breakfast.She was still enjoying her meal at the dining table when a golden ray of light suddenly appeared in front of her, accompanied by a light scent of incense that filled her nostrils.Xyla immediately knew that Sophie Kenwick was here, and it ma

    Sophie Kenwick let out a long helpless sigh as she followed Xyla Quest up to the bedroom and then pulled into a huge closet.Xyla led her to a rack of clothes, placing each item of clothing against her to find a suitable outfit, all while Sophie looked somewhat disoriented.Although she had been confined within the underground palace, she was aware of what happened outside.The divine techniques she had cultivated allowed her soul to wander around the outside world freely.Nevertheless, Sophie’s frame of mind remained at the time when she lived in Warrington.She felt repulsed at the sight of clothes that couldn’t fully cover her body.After hopping around, Xyla chose a white shirt and a khaki woolen pleated skirt, as well as a khaki British-style coat, carefully placing them against the girl for a fitting.Sophie was very tall with a petite frame and a great physique. After making the measurements, Xyla could already visualize her in that outfit, certain she would look flatteri

    Sophie Kenwick wanted to be compliant with her master.Seeing how obedient the girl was, Xyla Quest soon melted on the inside.It was because her appearance was like a gentle breeze outside the window.“Hmm, I won't force you if you really can’t accept it. You can wear other clothes like some longer dresses here, or even long-sleeved shirts and pants,” Xyla assured her.“It’s okay, Master. If you say I should wear this, then I will. That god did say I should follow you,” Sophie answered.With that, she clutched the clothes and wagged her finger at them.In the next instant, her former attire had disappeared, and in its place were Xyla's carefully chosen clothes wrapped around her frame. Her long, dark and straight hair was also visible, dangling past her shoulders to her waist.She looked beautiful.Her previous princess-worthy outfit fell by her feet, catching Xyla by surprise as she watched.People who possessed magical powers were way too lucky.Even a change of clothes

    After bringing Sophie Kenwick to check out her room, Xyla Quest drove away from the house with the girl in her red Maserati.A large entourage of luxury cars followed after them as security detail, attracting a lot of attention on the road. Xyla’s sports car moved forward rapidly.It was something wonderful that Sophie had never experienced before. Although she had seen such cars while her soul had been wandering, she had never physically been inside of a fast car... until now. She liked it very much. It moved much faster than horse carriages used in the past.People in this era were indeed lucky.Xyla drove with one hand while she twirled her long black, curly hair with the other.She then looked at Sophie with a smile. “Sophie, what do you think? Do you like this feeling?”Sophie nodded. “Yes, I do like sports cars. Did you know that I enjoyed exciting experiences like this back when I lived in the palace too? "Father and I used to go on horse races, and I rode extremel

    After looking around, Sophie Kenwick was drawn to the luxurious environment.The moment Xyla Quest walked in, an employee dressed in a suit approached her. “Ms. Quest, are you here to see King?”“Yes,” Xyla replied.“Do you have an appointment? Ouch!” Before the employee could finish speaking, somebody dressed in a similar suit knocked his head violently with a makeup brush.That person was King, the young and successful celebrity stylist.Although they were both wearing similar suits, King wore an elegant, custom-made suit that made him seem more exclusive.“What are you saying? Can’t you see who this is? Do you think Xyla Quest needs to make an appointment to see me?” King asked unhappily.With that, King walked over to her. “Ms. Quest, it’s a pleasure to see you and my honor to serve you.”Xyla chuckled. “The pleasure is mine. Please, don’t yell at him. He’s merely following the rules.”As she spoke, Xyla peered at the employee who had been hit by King earlier.King laughe

    “She’s my ex-girlfriend,” King replied, shrugging helplessly.“She probably still has feelings for me and probably why she keeps coming back to bug me,” he added.Xyla Quest chuckled. “I see.”“She’s the daughter of a wealthy businessman from Country M,” King explained further.“It seems she comes from a decent family. She looks quite good too. Why did you break up with her?” Xyla asked.“She…” King hesitated again.Xyla chuckled again. “It’s fine if you don’t want to say it.”It was none of her business, anyway.“It’s not that I don’t want to say it. There isn’t anything I’d keep from you. But honestly, it’s rather embarrassing. She’s physically abusive,” King stated.Xyla was shocked to hear this.Physical abuse?Xyla found it hard to imagine a man of King's stature, over six feet tall, being physically abused by a much shorter woman.She really couldn’t picture it.“Why?” Xyla asked incredulously.King scratched his head. “Why else? She has violent tendencies. I’d get

    After ensuring that the makeup was immaculate, King looked happily at Sophie Kenwick’s reflection in the mirror.“That outfit looks very flattering on you today. Only your hairstyle and makeup were slightly off but now, with this makeover, everything matches better. Of course, your personality and image also go well together with this look,” King explained.Sophie nodded. “Thank you. You’re very talented.”If King lived in Warrington, he’d have become the women’s favorite person in the palace.He’d be able to do well wherever he went.Xyla Quest was also very pleased with Sophie’s makeover, finding her beauty to be astounding.She walked over to Sophie with a smile and put her hands on Sophie’s shoulders, looking at her reflection in the mirror. “It looks fantastic! Thank you, King.”King chuckled. “Don’t mention it. I'm only doing my job, Ms. Quest.”They left the makeup studio after settling the payment. A group of bodyguards who waited outside immediately stepped in line beh

    A white ball of light had appeared in the sky in front of Xyla Quest, resembling a halo.A faint white figure could be seen in the halo.Xyla rubbed her eyes before looking at the same spot, but the vision had disappeared.She was sure she had seen something earlier.What could it have been?Was it a god? Or was it the nine-tailed fox demon?Could it have been something else?Xyla had many questions in her mind.Now, she had many questions regarding her overall state.However, she couldn’t get any answers to her questions.Xyla figured that the time wasn’t right yet.When the time was right, all the answers would present themselves.She knew that a god was secretly helping her, so she didn’t feel so panicked anymore.With a dutiful and powerful girl like Sophie Kenwick by her side, she felt secure.If danger fell upon her or her husband, Stanley Batton, they would at least not be completely helpless.“What are you looking at, Master?” Sophie asked with a curious look in

    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.
