“Mom, to be honest, you don’t have to be so skeptical,” Xyla Quest said.However, Sharon Lindt rolled her eyes at Xyla. “It’s always better for women to be a little more careful. You might think I’m usually very carefree, but I’m much more cautious than you are in this regard.“You really should be more wary. If your man cheats on you, and you don’t even know it, yet you keep giving everything you have in the relationship, don’t you think that’s sad?” Sharon asked.They were both women. Sharon could relate to the feeling all too well.At that moment, Xyla felt as if she was turning to mush on the inside.Sharon did care about her.Otherwise, why would she say those things about her son?Xyla chuckled. “Mom, don’t worry. I know where to draw the line.”“If that’s the case, you wouldn’t have believed in everything he said,” Sharon replied.“That’s not true,” Xyla maintained.Sharon shook her head helplessly, a look of annoyance flashing on her face. “Regardless, you shouldn’t g

At that point, Sharon Lindt felt deeply troubled and upset.Sophie Kenwick politely nodded at her and smiled before heading upstairs obediently.Still, Sharon had a dark expression on her face, her face remained unsmiling.Stanley Batton calmly walked over to his mother and wife before taking a seat across from them.“Alright, start explaining.” Sharon wanted to see how Stanley would talk his way out of this.Right then, she was looking at him in a way that seemed as if she was a cop interrogating a suspect.The stern gaze made Stanley frown slightly.Stanley raised his brows slightly. “It’s not what you think.”Sharon didn’t say a single word. She had a cold expression on her face that seemed to say, ‘we'll see about that".Stanley pinched his forehead helplessly. “She is my sister. It is not the kind of relationship you imagine. I adopted her a long time ago.”Stories about past lives and reincarnations might be too far-fetched for his mother right then. Even if Stanley e

Xyla Quest might be a naive girl, but Sharon Lindt couldn’t afford to be one.Sharon had to be more skeptical for Xyla and her children’s sake.“Yeah, it’s true. Why would I lie to you? Besides, do you think Xyla is that gullible?” Stanley Batton asked in return.“Why wouldn’t I? Xyla is such a naive girl, so of course, she’s gullible. I’m telling you, you’d better be telling the truth. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you pay for it. I will only ever accept Xyla as my daughter-in-law,” Sharon warned.“If Xyla’s around, you’ll be around. If she's gone, then you’re dead,” she added.Stanley didn’t say anything further. Instead, he silently handed his mother a leather folder.Sharon eyed her son suspiciously. “What is this?”“You’ll find out once you open it, won’t you?”Sharon opened the leather folder with a curious mind, finding a document inside.Glancing at Stanley again, she quickly retrieved the document.It was an adoption letter.The document proved that he had adopted a gir

The moment their eyes met, Sophie Kenwick immediately beamed at Sharon Lindt.Sharon had to admit that the girl was really pretty. Although she wasn’t as good-looking as Xyla Quest, she was still pretty by any standards.It was rare for her to see a girl who was not completely overshadowed next to Xyla.Sophie’s beauty and her sad past made her heart soften even more.On the surface, however, she still looked stern.Sharon nodded slightly at Sophie before pointing at the seat next to her. “Come here.”Sophie nervously grabbed Xyla’s hand and subconsciously glanced at her.Xyla had briefly explained to Sophie all about who Sharon was and why she came here.The younger girl had no idea what Sharon was thinking, except that she didn't like her much.Xyla smiled. “Don’t be afraid. My mother-in-law is a very nice person.”Sophie nodded before taking a seat nervously next to Sharon.“Nice to meet you...umm,” Sophie said hesitantly.“Since you’re Stanley’s adopted sister, you are

“I’m so glad to see you’re so good to Xyla. You’re a wonderful mother-in-law. She is very fortunate to have you, and so is my brother.“With your character, the family would avoid conflicts significantly.” Sophie Kenwick offered her thoughts and compliments without holding back.She was saying all these things from the bottom of her heart.Seeing how serious the girl seemed, Sharon Lindt no longer felt worried.At the same time, her facial expression also began to soften. She was now able to relax.Sharon reached out to hold Sophie’s hand. “As long as you don’t get any wrong ideas about your brother, we’ll be good friends. No, I mean, mother and daughter.”Sophie chuckled. “Don’t worry, I won’t.”Stanley Batton was her biological brother. How could she have feelings for him? She would never be such a beast.“Okay, have you eaten?” Sharon asked.“Not yet.”“In that case, I’ll start cooking. Do you like sweet-and-sour pork ribs?” Sharon inquired.Sophie nodded.“That’s great!

She was used to being cared for, being adored, being protected, and being appreciated.She felt just like a princess.Xyla didn’t have to do any chores around the house.Stanley Batton gently kissed her on the forehead before heading into the kitchen. He joined his mother and kept themselves busy in the kitchen.Sophie Kenwick was taking a bath upstairs while Xyla waited peacefully in the living room.The house felt warm and comfortable.Outside, it began to snow heavily.Despite the cold weather outside, people in the house weren’t affected at all.Xyla had already finished her work and only wanted to relax in the house.So, she logged into League of Legends and prepared to play.As soon as she opened the game, several news articles popped up on her phone about the cheating rumors.Xyla felt her head aching as soon as she saw these headlines.As she clicked on the news, she sa

I didn’t expect that it was all just a misunderstanding.”“Hmm, if that’s the case, you have my blessings.”“Aren’t you going to explain who that girl is?” someone asked.Stanley directly forwarded the message and replied to it. “She’s my younger sister. I adopted her in the past. Stop writing novels.”At the same time, many people discovered that the accounts of haters who made false divorce claims had disappeared, making it a joyous occasion.Immediately after that, Stanley published another Weibo post.“I love you, Honey. @Xyla Quest.”Suddenly, netizens who paid attention to this incident on Weibo felt jealous.The comment section flooded

Meanwhile, Sophie Kenwick couldn’t tell the difference as she was used to living a lavish lifestyle in the past.***The next morning, Sophie woke up early and accompanied Xyla Quest to Quest Group.Although she was said to be Xyla’s bodyguard on paper, she was now known as Stanley Batton’s younger sister. On top of that, she was wearing luxurious brands from head to toe. Her entire body was glowing.She didn’t seem like one of Xyla’s subordinates at all.They looked like equals when they stood next to each other.Xyla started working as soon as she entered the office, while Sophie casually wandered around.She said she wanted to get used to the environment, but in all honesty, she was bored.As she walked past the pantry, Sophie saw a few women drinking coffee while talking about her.“The girl our President brought with her is Stanley’s younger sister. D*mn!”“I honestly thought Mr. Batton was cheating. It turns out that wasn’t the case.”“That girl is lucky to have been a

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.
