Those people were expressing dissatisfaction toward Xyla Quest—“The so-called ‘effective medicine for leukemia’ Quest Group just launched is such a joke. I honestly don’t know how dumb a person must be to fall for it.”“Everyone knows that there are limited methods of curing leukemia for now. There are no new methods at all. After all, this is a very serious disease related to one’s blood. I am speechless.”“Even the best experts in the world wouldn’t claim that they can cure leukemia with a single pill. Xyla, honestly… do you need money that badly? I advise everyone not to buy the pill. After all, it doesn’t work.”“As someone who has been researching leukemia for over thirty years, I can tell you that Quest Group’s medicine is a fraud. I hope none of you fall for it.”“I’ve been researching leukemia for fifty years. I can tell you that their so-called recovery cases are all fake. They paid those patients to lie.”The comments from 'experts' were similar, making Xyla feel helpl

“Why must these people criticize Xyla? I believe she wouldn’t make up something ridiculous like this if it wasn’t reliable.”“Also, aren’t there many cases of people recovering from their illnesses? Why do these people still doubt and criticize her?”“Josh, hurry up and help Xyla by yelling at those people on Weibo,” Annabeth Cates said, feeling annoyed just by looking at screenshots of those criticisms.Even someone with a good temperament like her couldn’t stand it.She didn’t dare to imagine how Xyla Quest would feel.“How can they say five thousand is too expensive, or even doubt the cost of production for those pills? There are many expensive herbal ingredients out there. Don’t these people have access to the internet?” Annabeth couldn’t resist grumbling.The way she was huffing and puffing seemed extremely adorable to Josh, prompting him to ruffle her hair affectionately.“All right, I will.”She resumed mumbling, “Xyla is amazing and she’s making a difference for mankind

“Fine, you’ve already deleted her contact anyway. That will be the end of that, but please don’t do this again,” Annabeth Cates told her husband.“We’ll discuss it next time then,” Josh Batton replied and then handed his phone over to her again. “How do you plan to speak up for Xyla?”Annabeth directly logged into his Weibo account before forwarding a post by Quest Group. It was a post related to the medicine for leukemia.“Get your facts right before criticizing others. I support Xyla Quest,” she typed.Immediately after that, she turned her attention to Josh. “Will this do?”He still had an affectionate look in his eyes. “As long as you’re fine with it.”“I think it’s fine,” she said confidently before pressing the button to publish the post.Instantly, the comment section under post went wild—“Josh, are you crazy? Things are already getting out of hand. Why are you still supporting Xyla? Don’t you want to live anymore?”“Xyla is selling fake medicine. How could you support

Things were getting out of hand, but the President and Vice President never addressed the public.The longer they waited, the more frustrated everyone seemed to be.The protesters weren’t only holding up banners but began to scream crazily.Everything very quickly made its way onto the internet.Everyone condemned the President and Vice President for not responding to protect Xyla Quest, who had become the talk of the town.Outside, it was raining cats and dogs.Xyla was still sitting calmly in her office in Quest Group, silently reviewing work documents while ignoring whatever was happening outside.Sometimes, paying too much attention to those things only made her exhausted. She was better off completely ignoring those people.Once the truth came out, it would all be over anyway.By noon, the criticisms had escalated to an extreme level.Weibo even crashed several times because of the high volume of traffic.After technicians fixed the app for the last time, a famous docto

The public’s comments turned positive within an instant.After working for a while, Xyla Quest began to feel a little tired. She turned off her laptop and launched Weibo for an update.The things she read on Weibo were just as she expected.At that point, she noticed unread messages flooding her Weibo inbox—“Xyla, I’m so sorry. I didn’t think you’d be such an amazing person.”“Thank you for contributing to the betterment of mankind.”“To be honest, if the medicine works, five thousand isn’t a lot. Long live Xyla.”“Xyla, you’re the most wonderful person in the world. I’m sorry.”At the same time, Xyla also saw a post that drew her attention. “@XylaQuest, your medicine is sold out on the official sales channel. When will there be a replenishment? Are there any other channels I could purchase from?”This comment came from the leukemia expert, Larry Wick, who had previously claimed he would never buy the medicine from Xyla even if she begged him.When Xyla saw this abject pos

Xyla Quest was happy and excited about this as it meant she would be able to help countless leukemia patients in the future.Nobody would have to go bankrupt because of treatment costs ever again.While browsing, Xyla suddenly saw a new hot topic on the number one spot, ‘#The President talks about Resurrection Pill’s ingredients#’.Xyla instantly clicked on it, seeing a Weibo post the President had recently published—“The Resurrection Pill is made from various rare medicinal ingredients. Indeed, all the costs involved added up to five thousand.“I once asked how much it was going to retail for, and Xyla told me she’d set it at the cost price so that everyone could afford it. She hoped nobody would suffer from leukemia ever again.“On top of that, Quest Group can offer a full waiver for those who can’t afford to fork out five thousand dollars by submitting documents to prove your financial situation.”The President’s Weibo post was only published less than a minute ago, and ther

“What?” Xyla Quest asked in curiosity.“Stand up and look outside,” Sophie Kenwick immediately said. “What’s happening outside? Have the protesters left?” They should be gone by now since the whole matter was resolved. Xyla had turned the situation around.Sophie immediately shook her head. “I knew it. You’ve been busy at work, so you have no idea what’s happening. Hurry up, come and see.”Xyla glanced at her in confusion before standing up to walk over to the French windows.Looking down, she saw many people gathered downstairs, chanting something.Xyla was too far away to determine what they were shouting, let alone make sense of their unsynchronized voices.After paying close attention for a long while, she finally managed to pick up part of what they were saying—“Xyla is pretty and kind. Xyla, you’re an angel. We’re demons. Xyla, we’re truly sorry.”They were saying the same things even though they were barely synchronized.Xyla smiled as she listened, feeling enter

Sophie Kenwick followed Xyla Quest forward obediently.Wherever Xyla went, she would go.Sophie looked up, seeing Xyla’s pretty face from the side.Even with the barest makeup and a simple down jacket, Xyla was ridiculously beautiful and looked like a white peony in full bloom.She was noble and angelic, yet she also seemed unapproachable. Sophie couldn’t resist sighing and thinking, ‘She’s so pretty.’They took the elevator down to the first floor, where numerous employees had gathered in front of the main lobby’s french windows.When they saw Xyla, they instantly dispersed and disappeared within seconds…She led Sophie to the door, remaining tight-lipped.Outside, those people were still chanting along with the advertisement on the large screen. From up close, the crowd seemed larger than what she saw from upstairs, making things seem more spectacular.These people were deafening.Right then, someone spotted Xyla and began to shout excitedly. “Xyla is here!”As soon

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.
