Chapter 1975

Author: Moonlight
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

    On Weibo, netizens began a heated discussion—“I was in Goldfield Plaza and personally witnessed the entire proposal. I even have a video as proof. Look, everyone.”“A wealthy man proposed to X Entertainment’s CEO, Georgie Clementine. Moreover, this man is a close friend of Josh and Stanley Batton. Their wives were also there at the time!”“I’m always impressed with other people’s proposals. I’m jealous.”“Ahh, Georgie is a true winner in life. Why is she still working as X Entertainment’s CEO when she could stay at home as a housewife.”“Am I the only one who noticed that the watch he’s wearing costs fifty million? It’s a globally limited-edition watch, too. Who exactly is this person?”“Look at her ring. It looks super expensive. That’s the real deal. I’m so envious I could cry.”“The proposal, the ring, and her boyfriend. I’m extremely jealous.”They were all envious.At the same time, marketing accounts were taking advantage of the proposal to gain popularity.Georgie Cle

    Georgie Clementine’s mother must have seen the news or the hot topic on Weibo.“Georgie, I’ve seen what happened on the news. Your boyfriend proposed, and you said yes!”Her 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 daughter’s 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, Henry’s family background was better than they could ever hope for.Georgie couldn’t afford to let this opportunity slip by.Georgie immediately chuckled upon hearing her mother's excited tone. “Yeah, I’ll bring him home next time. But Mom, aren’t you upset that I agreed to marry him without disc

    “Could it be your gastritis acting up again?” 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.“Georgie, are you pregnant?” she asked with a joyful expression as she moved closer to her friend.Kneeling on one knee, Xyla reached for Georgie’s wrist to check on her pulse.Georgie was stunned when she heard the question, realizing that it was possible.She hadn’t 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 hadn’t asked the question, Georgie would’ve forgotten about that. Henry had a sharp intake of breath. “Really? She is pregnant?” He sounded excited at the prospect, thinking there was a high chance since they had a very active sex life.“Stop talk

    “Does it feel like it’s getting worse? Honey, I'm so sorry, it’s all my fault. I was spinning around too much,” Henry Armstrong said apologetically.At this point, he felt a little panicked.Turning to look at Xyla Quest, he said helplessly, “Xyla, please think of something, quick. She’s dry-heaving even harder now. Also, I was spinning her around too much. Would that affect her and our baby’s health?”Xyla could tell how much he cared about Georgie and the baby from his nervous reaction.She shook her head. “She’s fine, don’t worry. It’ll get better shortly.”“Really? Do I need to call the ambulance?” he asked anxiously.Xyla was speechless. So were the rest of their group.Georgie Clementine couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him. “Ugh, Henry, can you not overreact?”Henry scratched his head. “Oh, I was just worried about you.”Georgie was out of breath, heaving again while she spoke. “I’m fine. Wait for me outside, all of you. I’ll be fine in a bit.”Henry shook his head,

    Georgie Clementine couldn’t resist smiling. “Henry, thank you for being so good to me.”Henry Armstrong hugged her tightly in his arms. “I’ve worked so hard to make you mine. If I don't take care of you, then who should? Besides, you’ll soon be the mother of my child, and we’ll be together for the rest of our lives.”“Like what Stanley said, if a woman has bet her entire life on a man, he shouldn’t let her down,” he added.Georgie felt greatly touched by what she heard, but she remained silent and allowed him to continue holding her close.“Honestly, I wasn't planning on having a child so soon. I still need to focus on my career,” she said after a while.Alarmed, he shuddered and quickly pulled her away. “What do you mean? Don’t you want the baby?”The baby was his, too.His heart started to ache when he thought about how an innocent life could be taken away.He wasn’t willing to let that happen.Before Georgie could say more, he let out a long and helpless sigh. “Although I r

    Georgie Clementine peered curiously at Henry Armstrong. “What?”“I’m going to make a call to inform my family. Naturally, I have to share the good news,” he said chirpily.Georgie nodded and then walked into the room to avoid disturbing Henry during his phone call with his parents.When she left, he walked over to the basin and called his mother on the phone.“What is it, Henry?” she asked as soon as she answered his call. He couldn’t hold back his joy any longer. “I’m going to be a father! I’m going to marry Georgie someday soon, and you have to agree with my decision whether you like it or not.”He needed to make his stance clear no matter what.Meanwhile, in the Armstrong family’s luxurious house, his mother was sitting on a European-style couch while she calmly listened to what he said.“What? Pregnant?” There was a look of utter shock in her eyes after hearing what her son said.She had agreed to the idea of the two of them dating, but she secretly hoped they wouldn’t en

    “How else would they react? Of course, they couldn’t be happier for us. They agreed to us getting married and didn’t say much else,” Henry Armstrong declared.A look of surprise appeared in Georgie Clementine’s eyes. “Really?”They had to go through tremendous mental struggles to convince Henry’s parents to agree to the two of them dating, and suddenly, today, they agreed to the idea of them getting married without any qualms? She found that hard to believe as she knew that the Armstrong family wasn’t particularly fond of her.They only agreed at first because Henry insisted on being with her.It seemed like they might only have agreed to their marriage because of her pregnancy.Henry nodded. “It’s true. Why would I lie to you? My mother also gave me the green light to take charge of everything.“Most importantly, she doesn’t know what your preferences are or your family traditions. Anyway, I told her I’ll sort everything out. All they need to do is sign some cheques when the t

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.
