“I’m guessing you aren’t fine,” Annabeth Cates took a deep breath and said carefully.“Congratulations, you’ve got that right,” Josh Batton said teasingly.Her body grew tense again. “Should I-?”“No, I can control myself,” he assured her.“Are you sure?” she asked hesitantly.“Yeah.” With that, Josh tenderly pressed her head against his chest, rubbing her back gently. “Good girl. Let’s get some sleep.”He switched the lights off them, plunging the room into darkness. The entire world had fallen silent.It was so quiet that she could hear him breathing as his warm breath blew against her neck. It made her heart rate go out of control.She couldn’t help but recall their intimate moments together.She closed her eyes and tried her best to fall asleep without uttering a word.Josh was doing his best to control himself because he couldn't do anything despite having a beautiful woman in his arms.He began to calm down after Annabeth had fallen asleep, his facial expression grad

Annabeth Cates looked curiously at Josh Batton’s handsome face through the spotless mirror. “Go ahead.”“Two days ago, I told Georgie I wanted to cut down on work so that I could spend more time with you. She called to give me an update earlier. She has eliminated as much work as possible, so from now on, I only need to work between one to three hours each day.“Also, Atlantis TV recently started a new variety show called ‘Their Day Together’, about a celebrity couple’s daily life. It’s a massive production with a total of twenty episodes. They would invite a celebrity couple to take part in each episode.“The content is rather simple; they will film a couple’s daily life, and that's all. Georgie hopes we can participate in the first episode. What do you think?“It’ll all be done here in our house. We can do whatever we want, basically just carry on with our usual routine,” Josh explained carefully.“Sure, I’m fine with it,” Annabeth immediately replied.“Okay, I’ll tell Georgie

Annabeth Cates followed Josh Batton into the piano room while the production crew huddled around them.Glass panels made up the walls of the piano room, providing ample light from the sun outside to illuminate the entire room.Warm rays of sunlight landed upon the white, elegant piano, making the exclusive instrument seem even more unattainable.Josh gently held Annabeth’s hand and sat in front of the piano, slowly lifting the lid before placing his long fingers on the spotless black and white keys.His beautiful fingers began to dance elegantly over them, seemingly making the world slow down as a delightful and soothing tune began to play.It was as if the tune could heal everything.After playing for over ten seconds, Josh began singing along to it—“My darling girl, you came into my life unexpectedly.“You’ve melted my heart, and I’m deeply touched by you.“You’re a ray of light in my life, and you keep me warm through all seasons and in the darkest of nights.“I’ll keep y

The production crew members were mesmerized by the romantic song once again.It was a wonderful setting where they all felt envious, but none of them could look away.“I forgot to ask you earlier, what’s the title of this song?” Annabeth Cates asked with a smile after Josh Batton stopped singing.“You’re My Love,” he answered without hesitation.When Annabeth heard this, she felt warm in her heart again.‘You’re My Love.’The song title was beautiful too.“Do you like it?” he asked.“Yes, I like it.”“Annabeth?” “Hmm?”“You’re my love,” he declared.Annabeth instantly blushed, unable to hide her embarrassment at all.“Would you like to listen to it again?” Josh asked.“It’s fine. You must be tired. Come on, let’s go outside,” Annabeth suggested.“Okay, we’ll take a break. Would you like something to drink?”Annabeth thought about it for a few seconds. “No. Can you check why my ice cream hasn’t arrived? I just want that.”Josh glanced helplessly at Annabeth before open

The person calling was Sharon Lindt.When Josh Batton saw his mother calling, he quickly picked up the phone. “Mom must be checking up on us, wanting to know if I’m taking good care of you.”After that, he answered the call, and soon, they could hear his mother's voice.“Annabeth said you’d be at home today. Are you taking good care of her?”Hearing this, he immediately put the call on the loudspeaker as he wanted his wife to hear, too.Meanwhile, Annabeth Cates could hear everything.These days, she found Sharon’s voice even more endearing than her own mother’s. Her calls had come more frequently ever since she became pregnant.Sometimes, her mother-in-law cared more about her than her own mother.Josh naturally wrapped his arm around Annabeth’s shoulders. “Of course. You can ask Annabeth if you don’t believe me.”“Is she next to you?” Sharon asked.“Yes.”“Hi, Mom. I’m here,” Annabeth spoke up.“Honey, is he taking good care of you? Is he doing everything you ask?”“Yes,

“Okay, great,” Josh Batton said.“Annabeth likes pork ribs, but I only have a small portion, so you’ll have to eat less,” Sharon Lindt said.“Okay, I’ve got it,” he replied.Annabeth Cates felt so happy being incredibly pampered by everyone around her.Meanwhile, the female production crew members couldn’t help lamenting about their own lives.They couldn’t believe what they were hearing.They were also married women, but why was Annabeth’s mother-in-law so supportive but theirs weren’t?After briefly chatting with his mother, Josh hung up the phone before standing up and gazing down at his wife.“It will be lunchtime soon, so I should start preparing now.”Annabeth gently patted the seat he had just vacated. “Hmm, there’s no rush. You can sit for a while longer.”“No, the dishes you want to eat are a little more complicated and would require more preparation time. Pregnant women tend to get hungry easily,” he said."Need my help?” she asked.“Sit here and relax. I didn’t m

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

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.

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.

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.
