Chapter 1886

Author: Moonlight
“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!

The woman glared coldly at Sophie before heading directly toward the cafe.Sophie instantly felt angered by her behavior. She frowned and yelled at the beautiful lady. “Hey! Aren’t you going to apologize?”When the woman heard what she said, she scowled slightly and removed her black sunglasses. She then turned around and crossed her arms over her chest. “What?” She gave Sophie the side-eye.There was a patr

    Her boyfriend was Gary Lakes, a man with powerful connections in Atlantis.She could afford to be arrogant without the need to be afraid of anyone. There weren’t many people who would mess with her in Atlantis right now.Sophie Kenwick, however, didn’t show any fear at all. “Who do you think you are?”“Okay, I hope you won’t regret what you said and beg on your knees later,” the woman said.“Right back at you,” Sophie replied.The woman glared at her before walking over to Gary, who was taking a nap. She leaned forward carefully and peered at him. "Honey, there's someone here threatening me. Are you going to help me?”Hearing her voice, Gary opened his eyes slowly. “What happened?”“That lady was looking for trouble out of nowhere. She even hit me.

    Gary Lakes briefly perused Sophie Kenwick up and down.He then chuckled. “Hmm, she is not my girlfriend.”“But she said she’d get her boyfriend to teach me a lesson. Wasn’t she talking about you?” Sophie asked.He smiled. There was a look in his eyes that was difficult to read. “She’s the only one who thinks so.”She winked knowingly. “Oh? Does that mean it’s all in her head?”Gary studied her thoughtfully for a few seconds. “Sometimes, sleeping together doesn’t mean two people become a couple.”Sophie nodded slowly before scratching her head. “In the words of people in your era, does it mean that although everyone wants everlasting love, we all live in a time when even sleeping together doesn’t mean love can last for a long time?”Gary’s smile gradually widened after hearing what she said.“Yeah, that’s what it means. But what do you mean by people in our era? Are you from an ancient past?” He grinned from ear to ear.Sophie started to nod but then worried that he might be af

    Still, Gary Lakes didn’t even bat an eyelid and locked the doors silently.Although the woman could not open the door, she didn’t seem to want to let go.Instead, she repeatedly tapped on the window and begged. “Gary, I was wrong, please forgive me. I really won’t do it again. Besides, haven’t I already apologized?“Gary, I was wrong. Honestly,” the woman added.Gary ignored her and proceeded to turn on the car engine before driving away.When the car suddenly moved, the woman automatically took a step back, watching as the car sped away before her very eyes.Gary drove so fast that within a short time, the car had already disappeared from her line of sight.That was how rich people treated relationships.They were cold-hearted.Despite how intimate Gary had been with the woman before, he could leave any time he wanted mercilessly.She sneered, regretting ever being with Gary.She felt as if she was going mad.“Why did you have to mess with that girl?

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.

    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.

    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 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.
