Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 1969
Alex didn’t want to ruin the balance and peace he had right now or allow himself to mess things up.There was no point.Aside from making things awkward between him and Xyla Quest, nothing good would come out of it.Therefore, he would let things be.He would secretly love her, look at her, and do everything he could for her as her friend and team member. He’d do anything to make her happy.Sometimes, loving someone didn’t mean having to possess that person.Seeing Xyla happy was a form of happiness for Alex, too.While he’d feel jealous of Stanley Batton sometimes, he knew that nobody else would be good enough for Xyla other than him.When his teammates heard what he said, they sighed in relief and stopped gossiping about him.“That’s great, or we’d be troubled.”“You scared me there, but that’s great.”“I thought you had a crush on our boss. It’s good that you don’t.”“It's one thing that our boss is married. With her status, ordinary gamers like us should not even consid

Xyla Quest rubbed her belly gently, a strong sense of joy filling her heart.Stanley Batton strolled in just as she was about to turn off the lights, attired casually in black and looking elegant and tall.He laid down next to her after turning off the lights, his arms wrapped around her. “Why were you playing this late? Don’t you have work tomorrow?”“I do, I just haven’t played for a long time. I couldn’t resist it,” she answered.“Are you still a child?” Stanley sounded somewhat helpless. “I really couldn’t resist it. I had far too fun,” she said.“Such a kid.”He rubbed his chin against the top of her head, smelling the light scent of roses as he hugged her tightly in his arms.Inhaling deeply, he gently kissed her on the lips. “I’ll wait until after the baby is born.”He tightened his hug. “Let’s sleep, kiddo.”Xyla’s heart was beating rapidly, but she remained quiet. Closing her eyes, she leaned against his chest. She fell asleep to the beats of his heart and the sound

“No way!" Georgie Clementine exclaimed. "Henry wants to invite you and Stanley to dinner tonight at eight. We’ll go to the new western restaurant on the top floor of Goldfield Plaza.” Xyla Quest did a quick mental overview of her schedule, determining that she was free that night.However, she wasn’t sure if her husband, Stanley Batton, was free.“I’m fine with that, but I’m not too sure if my husband is available,” she said.“In that case, will you please check with him? Henry is inviting Sebastian and Josh as well,” Georgie told her. "He intends to gather everyone together."“Hmm, all right.”After chatting briefly with Georgie, Xyla hung up and proceeded downstairs.She could smell the fragrant aroma of toasts from the living room, so she followed it into the kitchen. There, she found Stanley carefully cutting toasts, with a black apron covering over his black attire.He looked homely yet noble.Xyla stepped forward immediately. “Good morning, Honey.”“Good morning.”“

Georgie Clementine wore a white fur coat over a white turtleneck sweater and pants with a pair of white boots.She appeared noble and pure.Georgie walked up to the women, greeting Sophie first before gazing at Xyla.“I have no idea what Henry is doing. He said he might be late and told me to come over first.“He wouldn’t tell me what he was tied up with when I asked, and yet he was the one who set this get-together up. But now, he ended up being late," Georgie complained while rolling her eyes and shaking her head. "Don’t you think this guy is completely unreliable?”Xyla chuckled and held her hand. “Something might have cropped up at work.”“Hmm, perhaps. Let’s not talk about him, though, and go inside first” Georgie said.She held the two ladies' hands before leading them into the mall.The three of them made a pretty sight, attracting the attention of countless men and women.As soon as they stepped into the mall, they were stunned by what they saw inside.The entire mall

At that moment, Georgie Clementine thought the guy who did all this to be even more romantic.She couldn’t help but look around for the lucky girl when everyone suddenly started screaming—“Ahh! It’s so romantic!”“I’m going to die. Ladies, this is way too romantic.”“Ahh!”Her eyes instantly darted around, following everyone’s gaze before looking up toward countless pink banners hanging on the railings on the top floor.The vertical banners were long enough to reach the ground from the top floor, covering an entire section on the first floor.Huge bold words were printed in white on each banner—“Georgie Clementine, I love you!”“Georgie Clementine, let’s get married.”“Georgie Clementine, I only want to be with you for the rest of our lives.”“Georgie Clementine, you’re all I see.”“Georgie Clementine, I’ll be loyal to you for life.”“Georgie Clementine, marry me. Everything I own is yours.”“Georgie Clementine, I want to be with you forever.”“Georgie Clementine, let’

Henry Armstrong was clearly very serious about marrying Georgie Clementine.“I’m truly happy for you. Henry genuinely means it. Georgie, say yes,” Xyla Quest told her.Georgie could not speak. Instead, she continued to dart her eyes at everything around her in tears.Right then, the mall plunged into darkness. Everyone started muttering, all curious about why the lights went out.Then, a warm yellow spotlight shone down from the top floor, directed solely on Georgie.The light illuminated her in her white outfit, making her shine brightly and stand out amidst the darkness.Georgie was deeply confused by all this.What was Henry up to?Meanwhile, Xyla Quest, Sophie Kenwick, and everyone around them was curious about what would happen next.Momentarily, another spotlight lit up the railing on the top floor across from Georgie, shining on Henry this time.Everyone could only see the two of them as everything else was pitch black.Henry, clad in a black tuxedo and a white shir

Henry Armstrong stepped out of the elevator like a superhero, striding step by step through the crowd with his friends behind him until he eventually arrived in front of Georgie Clementine.The surroundings were completely silent, everyone holding their breaths in anticipation of a romantic scene. Georgie's heart couldn’t stop racing, she even forgot to breathe.After letting out her breath in a long exhalation, she continued to gaze at Henry through her blurry tears, unable to utter a single word.It was such a magical scene, one she wasn't sure if caused by the lighting effects or that her dreams were about to come true with this man in front of her who seemed utterly charming at this moment.Georgie only thought of growing old with him.No matter what he asked, she would say yes.“Georgie, will you marry me?” Henry asked before reaching into his pocket to retrieve an intricate velvet box. Then, he opened it and went down on one knee.There was a ten-carat, tear-shaped dia

“Look at all the wealthy friends he has. Ahh, doesn’t Josh look so good up close?”“Isn’t Stanley good-looking? And so is the man who proposed. He's handsome, too. Ahh, they’re all so fine.”Everybody was muttering around them again, but Georgie Clementine and Henry Armstrong paid no heed.They were still kissing each other passionately.At that moment, a lot of memories from their past began replaying in Georgie’s mind.She recalled the first time she met Henry in a bar when he asked her out.And now, finally, they had arrived at this point.Every scene gave her a mix of emotions.Sometimes, life was mysterious like that.One might think they’d never get together with someone, but they'd still end up being together in the end.Henry reluctantly let go of Georgie, ending their passionate kiss a moment later. He held her close, kissing her forehead repeatedly.In the meantime, some people took pictures while others were still talking.The entire world was abuzz.When Xyla Q

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

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.
