Betty Starmount clenched her fists tightly upon hearing Xyla Quest's words, then just as quickly, she relaxed her fists before Xyla noticed anything.She changed the subject and continued to act demurely. “Xyla, have you taken a bath? Shall I help you?”Xyla shook her head. “No, I haven’t. Thank you.”After that, Betty carefully helped Xyla with a bath. Meanwhile, in the neonatal intensive care unit, several people adorned sterile gowns and went through a disinfection process before they followed Stanley Batton to visit his newborn twins.The children were asleep, still looking pinkish and wrinkly.From afar, they seemed so vulnerable and helpless, making everyone feel protective towards them.Everyone seemed to well up with tears in their eyes when they saw them looking so vulnerable and helpless. One couldn't help but feel protective toward such tiny babies.Sharon Lindt, especially, couldn’t resist crying as her heart ached painfully. “Oh my god! My grandchildren are so tin

As Jeremy Quest watched them, his gaze became even more tender.Betty Starmount was a great girl. His heart melted at the thought of how kind she was that he wanted to give her all the wonderful things in the world.Since Josh Batton still had work to do, he didn’t linger too long in the ward and soon left with Annabeth Cates, who was attired in full disguise.Upon leaving the ward, they entered the elevator discreetly, and then quickly stepped out once it arrived on the first floor.There was a large group of people waiting for the elevator outside the door.A girl in front directly approached Josh as she gave him the once over. “You must be Josh Batton, right?”The more she observed him, the more similar to her idol he seemed.Seeing the crowd around them, he wanted to avoid causing a scene. “No.”With that, he held Annabeth’s hand and hurried toward the main entrance.Right then, the ladies among the group became excited as soon as they recognized his voice.Everyone began

“Ahh! Josh, I like you!”“Josh, you’re so handsome! How are you so good-looking?”“Get out of the way, all of you! Don’t block my line of sight. Don’t stop me from looking at the most handsome man on earth!”Josh Batton’s fans were all wild, making him feel bothered by what was happening in front of him even though he had gotten used to it since he had encountered such situations numerous times before.Even his wife, Annabeth Cates, who was in the passenger’s seat, felt the same way.Josh pinched his forehead helplessly before honking at the crowd.However, it didn’t help.Shaking his head helplessly, he then called Georgie Clementine on the phone and told her what was happening before hanging up to wait for help to arrive.Outside, his fans were still acting crazily, even blocking the road for others.Many people were complaining about it, but Josh had no other option aside from waiting in the car.If he stepped outside or opened a window, the consequences would be dire.“J

Annabeth Cates would be willing to cooperate even if it was on the other side of the world, never mind just Atlantis.Josh Batton affectionately ruffled her hair before holding her hand, interlocking their fingers while he steered the car with the other hand.The two of them were inseparable.Since they were still a fair distance from home, Annabeth logged into Weibo and started browsing the list of hot topics, finding their latest harrowing experience with the fans among them.‘#Josh Batton surrounded by fans at Municipal Hospital#’ was on the number one spot on the list.She clicked on it immediately and saw footage of Josh carrying her while he ran from his overzealous fans.The video looked almost like a scene taken from a television drama, with Josh looking very cool from behind.Finally, the video ended with them trapped in their car, surrounded by screaming fans.Fans were spamming in the comment section below—“Josh is truly a gentle and considerate husband.

Xyla Quest instantly became curious upon seeing Sharon Lindt’s expression. “Mom, what is it that you want to say?”“Nothing much. I just wanted to tell you not to worry too much. Your children will be fine,” Sharon said.Although she was trying to comfort Xyla, she was just as worried about her grandchildren.“Stan had already contacted his grandfather. He’ll be here very soon,” she added.“Okay, I’ll try not to worry too much. You should do the same,” Xyla replied softly, also attempting to comfort her mother-in-law.She also felt very concerned whenever she thought about her newborn twins. However, there was nothing she could do about the situation except to let fate decide.Xyla’s babies had been in her stomach for over six months. They shared the same blood, and they’d spent so much time together. A deep bond had long developed.She didn’t dare imagine what would become of her if she lost her children.They had become a part of her.They were also the most vulnerable part

A bodyguard was standing by the door as he looked at Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton with a frantic expression on his face. “The-the-” he stammered, panting heavily.Stanley’s frown deepened as he surged to his feet. “What is it? Spit it out!”Xyla and Sharon Lindt instantly panicked seeing the bodyguard acting this way.“The children-" the bodyguard said with a trembling voice. "They’re gone. We’ve already blocked all exits in the hospital.”When Xyla heard this, she felt like the entire world was collapsing before her.Stanley and Sharon felt the same way.None of them could believe what they had just heard.They had already deployed bodyguards throughout the entire building. It was unthinkable that anyone could still kidnap the children.Panicked, Xyla clambered out of bed and looked at the frantic man. “What? What do you mean? Did you say my children are gone? What were you doing? Why didn’t you look after them?”Just by standing alone, Xyla already felt the energy being dra

The bodyguard was trembling all over. “It's the truth. Many others saw what I saw. You can ask around. There’s also surveillance footage of what happened. You can check it out.”Sharon Lindt sneered. “I don’t have to see anything. Why should I believe what you said? If there are witnesses, that only means you were all part of the scheme.”Stanley Batton was beginning to feel agitated by the sound of her voice.He scowled at his mother. “Be quiet, you don’t have to get involved in this.”Sharon became even angrier then. “What do you mean? My grandchildren are missing. How could I not be involved? Is it wrong of me to ask questions?”However, Stanley neither looked at Sharon nor replied to her. He continued to frown before turning to look at Xyla. “Stay here. The nurse will tend to your wound shortly. I’ll report this to the authorities and look for Yaksha.”Resisting the pain, Xyla instantly grabbed his hand tightly and spoke. “Okay, but Honey... you must bring our children back.

Xyla Quest had only just delivered her babies, yet she was already afflicted with two separate tragedies.Her children were delivered prematurely at six months along, with tubes connected to their bodies. Whether they would live or die was still uncertain.And then, not long after they were born, they were kidnapped.The more Sharon Lindt thought about it, the more her heart ached on Xyla’s behalf.“Which b*stard did this? How could he do this to two innocent babies? Isn’t he afraid of karma? If my daughter-in-law and grandchildren get hurt because of this, I’ll make sure the culprit is brought to justice,” Sharon said through gritted teeth, her hands clenched into fists by her side.In the meantime, Xyla seemed completely devastated, feeling herself being devoured by helplessness and worry.Her children were still so tiny. Their lives were at risk even while asleep in a thermal case.How could they stand all the torture?If the nine-tailed fox did take them away, they’d probab

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.

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.
