Chapter 1987

Author: Moonlight
‘It would be great if she spent ten or twenty thousand here,’ the sales assistant thought to herself at first.

In the end, Georgie Clementine ended up spending a lot more than expected.

The sales assistant on the other side was dumbfounded when she heard Georgie confirm the purchase.

She promptly placed her phone down and stared at the client from behind with a shocked expression on her face.

The woman didn’t even hesitate when she heard the hefty price tag of the necklace.

What did this mean?

It meant she was a wealthy person!

She had just missed a huge opportunity for a massive sale by refusing to do her job of attending to any potential customer. In this case, if she had shown the ring to Georgie when she asked, she could have been the one who made the sale.

Right then, she truly felt remorseful.

    When she heard this, she immediately looked at the long-haired sales assistant. “Why does that name sound so familiar?”“You’re so clueless. She’s the CEO of X Entertainment, the company that your idol, Josh Batton, is attached to,” the other woman said.She became even more exasperated after hearing this. “What? I can’t believe it!“I’ve seen Georgie’s pictures before, but I couldn’t recognize her face,” she added, feeling even more remorseful now.“That’s what you get for not spending more time on Weibo. Look at me, I frequently check out stuff on Weibo, and I can remember some of those people.”The sales assistant felt even worse.Not long after Georgie Clementine had left with her new necklace, Henry Armstrong came up from behind and hugged her.He followed her along while casually checking out the various brands that he wouldn’t buy. “Why didn’t you wait for me where we were? I didn’t see you when I came out, and I looked for you everywhere.”As he spoke, he noticed the ba

    Georgie Clementine wanted to have more than one child as they would be lonely without a sibling.She was fond of children for a start, so she didn't want to limit herself to having only one.When Henry Armstrong heard this, a stern look came on his face. “No way! We’re only going to have one, and I won’t agree to another one. I’ve already told you why.”Her frown deepened. “Who was it that said he'd respect my decisions for the rest of his life? I happen to like children, and I feel very strongly about having two kids."He fell silent.Although he wanted to refute, he could tell that Georgie was upset. He immediately raised his hands to surrender. “Fine, fines as you wish. Please don’t be mad.”“That’s more like it," she replied. "However, I am not talking about the second child right after this one. We’d have to wait until our firstborn is at least six or seven. I don't want my career to be affected by having two kids consecutively.”“All right. Anything you want, my love.”He

    Georgie Clementine and Henry Armstrong simultaneously took their phones to have a look.The same content of a news article from Weibo appeared on their phones.“Georgie Clementine’s expensive betrothal gift.”Glancing at her fiance with a puzzled look, she clicked on the article to find a source, claiming to be her neighbor, had revealed a private matter on Weibo a while ago.This neighbor mentioned that Georgie’s parents received 30,000,000 in cash as her betrothal gift and that her mother was the one who shared the news.The article even posted a photo of the source, revealing the face of a woman whom Georgie recognized as a daughter of the family that lived opposite their unit.It wasn’t surprising at all that her mother had shared the news. Small town folks around her mother's age generally liked showing off anything related to their children.It was practically a hobby of theirs to boast about their children's accomplishments.The news article already garnered over six-fig

It was a magnificent sight.Stanley focused on driving as he spoke to Xyla. “Xyla, hang in there.

Don’t worry, our doctors are the best in the country. I’m sure they’ll be able to save her.“The Director is there, too, and he’s an expert in this field.”Stanley frowned deeply, nodding to acknowledge his words, but he didn’t reply. He sat down on a bench, his spine stiff with tension, considering how frantic he was still feeling.He had no idea what kind of torture his wife was going through inside the emergency unit.He also didn’t know if she would be fine like what Stephen said.All he could think about now was the image of finding Xyla lying in a pool of blood and her face drained of color.That scene was now permanently etched onto his mind, leaving him feeling vulnerable.

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.

    “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.

    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

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.

    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.

    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.
