At that moment, Georgie Clementine thought the guy who did all this to be even more romantic.She couldnât help but look around for the lucky girl when everyone suddenly started screamingââAhh! Itâs so romantic!ââIâm going to die. Ladies, this is way too romantic.ââAhh!âHer eyes instantly darted around, following everyoneâs 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 bannerââGeorgie Clementine, I love you!ââGeorgie Clementine, letâs get married.ââGeorgie Clementine, I only want to be with you for the rest of our lives.ââGeorgie Clementine, youâre all I see.ââGeorgie Clementine, Iâll be loyal to you for life.ââGeorgie Clementine, marry me.

Henry Armstrong was clearly very serious about marrying Georgie Clementine.âIâm truly happy for you. Henry genuinely means it. Georgie, say yes,â 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 couldnât 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.âGeorgie, will you marry me?â 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

âLook at all the wealthy friends he has. Ahh, doesnât Josh look so good up close?ââIsnât Stanley good-looking? And so is the man who proposed. He's handsome, too. Ahh, theyâre all so fine.âEverybody 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 Georgieâs 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 theyâd 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

On Weibo, netizens began a heated discussionââI was in Goldfield Plaza and personally witnessed the entire proposal. I even have a video as proof. Look, everyone.ââA wealthy man proposed to X Entertainmentâs CEO, Georgie Clementine. Moreover, this man is a close friend of Josh and Stanley Batton. Their wives were also there at the time!ââIâm always impressed with other peopleâs proposals. Iâm jealous.ââAhh, Georgie is a true winner in life. Why is she still working as X Entertainmentâs CEO when she could stay at home as a housewife.ââAm I the only one who noticed that the watch heâs wearing costs fifty million? Itâs a globally limited-edition watch, too. Who exactly is this person?ââLook at her ring. It looks super expensive. Thatâs the real deal. Iâm so envious I could cry.ââThe proposal, the ring, and her boyfriend. Iâm extremely jealous.âThey were all envious.At the same time, marketing accounts were taking advantage of the proposal to gain popularity.Georgie Cle

Georgie Clementineâs mother must have seen the news or the hot topic on Weibo.âGeorgie, Iâve seen what happened on the news. Your boyfriend proposed, and you said yes!âHer mother sounded joyful at the news. She was aware that her daughter was dating and what he did for a living.She always hoped that the two of them would end up getting married. She simply didn't expect it to happen so soon.Admittedly, she had never met Henry Armstrong, but she had faith in her daughterâs judgment.The man Georgie fell in love with certainly had to be good enough for her.Georgie never made her family worry about her. Since she was a child, all her decisions were wise and correct.Most importantly, Henryâs family background was better than they could ever hope for.Georgie couldnât afford to let this opportunity slip by.Georgie immediately chuckled upon hearing her mother's excited tone. âYeah, Iâll bring him home next time. But Mom, arenât you upset that I agreed to marry him without disc

âCould it be your gastritis acting up again?â Henry Armstrong asked.Right then, Xyla Quest and the others also entered the bathroom. As soon as she saw the state Georgie Clementine was in, the first thought that came to her mind was that she was pregnant.âGeorgie, are you pregnant?â she asked with a joyful expression as she moved closer to her friend.Kneeling on one knee, Xyla reached for Georgieâs wrist to check on her pulse.Georgie was stunned when she heard the question, realizing that it was possible.She hadnât had her period for at least a month and a half now since her last one. She hardly paid too much attention to it as she frequently missed her period due to work pressure, so it would likely be delayed or early.If Xyla hadnât asked the question, Georgie wouldâve forgotten about that. Henry had a sharp intake of breath. âReally? She is pregnant?â He sounded excited at the prospect, thinking there was a high chance since they had a very active sex life.âStop talk

âDoes it feel like itâs getting worse? Honey, I'm so sorry, itâs all my fault. I was spinning around too much,â Henry Armstrong said apologetically.At this point, he felt a little panicked.Turning to look at Xyla Quest, he said helplessly, âXyla, please think of something, quick. Sheâs dry-heaving even harder now. Also, I was spinning her around too much. Would that affect her and our babyâs health?âXyla could tell how much he cared about Georgie and the baby from his nervous reaction.She shook her head. âSheâs fine, donât worry. Itâll get better shortly.ââReally? Do I need to call the ambulance?â he asked anxiously.Xyla was speechless. So were the rest of their group.Georgie Clementine couldnât resist rolling her eyes at him. âUgh, Henry, can you not overreact?âHenry scratched his head. âOh, I was just worried about you.âGeorgie was out of breath, heaving again while she spoke. âIâm fine. Wait for me outside, all of you. Iâll be fine in a bit.âHenry shook his head,

Xyla quickly reached for Hannahâs hand. âIs that right? Hannah, youâre amazingâĶ! Youâre practically on par with Leon!âHannah laughed, slightly embarrassed. âNot at all.ââOh, cut it out. If you hadnât helped me, how could I have improved so quickly?â Leon chuckled.âI guess Iâve lived up to my promise.â 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. âYes, Hannahâs very capable. Sheâs our family pride.âHannah laughed. âI was lucky to be accepted by your family.âIn 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

âHannah, Iâve taken the first step for you. Are you willing to walk by my side for the rest of our lives?â Leon asked, serious.âYes, I amâĶâ Hannah answered without missing a beat.âIâll protect you. From now on, you donât have to worry about a single thing.â With that, Leon placed both hands on Hannahâs face and kissed her on the lips.The moment their lips touched, everything felt surrealâĶHannah could feel pink, light bubbles floating all around her. It felt as if all the flowers in the world were blossoming at once.In Hannahâs 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 nowâĶ 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, Leonâs 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, Hannahâs 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 wasnât a dream. It was real!Hannah felt even more dumbfoundedâĶThis meant Leon actually liked her! He was confessing to her, wasnât 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 couldnât 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 Raymondâs head.Raymond panicked instantly, going pale.He subconsciously retreated a step back. âWho are you? Donât you know what youâre doing is illegal?âLeon sneered. âYou donât deserve to know my name. In this city, I am the law.âLeonâs 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.âMr. Batton, do I shoot him in the head?â One of the men dressed in black asked.âMr. Batton? Are you Stanley Battonâs son?!â 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.âHow dare you address our president by name?!â Another man in black leveled Raymond with a chilling glare.Suffice to say, Raymond was terrif

Terrible pain ached at every part of Hannahâs 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, âMr. GrayâĶ What is the meaning of this?â âWhatâs the meaning of this? Ha! Donât you know whatâs good for you? You dumb b*tchâĶ Youâre lucky that I set my sights on you!ââHow dare you refuse my feelings!

Although the sun had long sunk beneath the horizons and darkness had set in, the lively city wasnât about to be silent anytime soon. Hannah felt deeply unsettled, so much that she didnât 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 GrayâĶ 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 didnât 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. âMs. 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 todayâĶââHe lost his temper and claimed heâd destroy our bar if Hannah refuses to sing another songâĶâ 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 werenât 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 didnât respect women at allâĶ 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

Iâm surprised weâre even assigned our own makeup artists,â Hannah asked carefully as she wasnât aware about things like these..However, Lina smiled without answering Hannahâs question directly. She held Hannahâs hand casually the next second, âCome here. Iâll start doing your makeup nowâĶâHannah noddedâĶLina was a very professional makeup artist.

Hannah Roland smiled without saying anything.***Hannah arrived at the bar where she worked at seven oâclock the next evening and walked into Rihanna Jensenâs office.Rihanna was going through paperwork in her office. When she saw Hannah, she immediately stood up and smiled at her. âHannah, youâre hereâĶââHereâs the contractâĶâ Rihanna said before pushing a thick stack of paper to the center of the table.Hannah quickly stepped forward and skimmed through the document.
