It sounded a little like Sebastian Brenand was begging.It was the first time Stanley Batton ever saw his friend like that.Sebastian used to be a proud man, always seeming aloof and would never beg anyone.Stanley nodded. “Hey, we’re good friends. You can stay for as long as you want.”Sebastian laughed bitterly. “Thank you.”Sharon Lindt felt bad for him. “Sebastian, of course, you can stay here. I think of you as my son.”His eyes immediately filled with tears upon hearing her words.He liked Sharon a lot more in comparison to his mother, finding them to be completely different.“Sharon, if only you were my mother,” he sighed with a bitter laugh.Rachel Wood resonated with his statement. If Sharon was his mother, they would’ve gotten married long ago and none of those terrible things would’ve happened.“I think it’d be wonderful to have another son. That way, I’d get to have a great daughter-in-law like Rachel,” Sharon said, smiling as she ruffled Rachel's hair affectionat

Josh Batton, Gary Lakes, and Henry Armstrong ran into the nursery and approached Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood in a panic.“My brother told me you caused a scene at your parents’ house. Did you really cut off ties with them? Let me know if you need any help in the future,” Josh said.“You can also come to me if you need any help. In fact, you should come to me first,” Gary spoke up.“No, you should come to me first,” Henry said.Everyone had genuine looks of concern in their eyes.Sebastian and Rachel felt warm in their hearts upon hearing what they said.Gary seemed a little taken aback when he saw Rachel covered in wounds.“How do you feel now?” he immediately asked.He used to have a slight crush on Rachel before she ended up with Sebastian. He even thought about pursuing her when they had split up some time ago, but he put an end to his crazy thoughts out of consideration for Sebastian’s feelings.As time went on, his feelings for Rachel gradually waned but not vanishe

“You’re right," Henry Armstrong said. "I used to find my parents annoying, but now, I don't think they are so bad. I have to thank my parents for not being such terrible people. Honestly, comparisons can be hurtful.”His words instantly made the tense atmosphere much more lively.Even Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood, who were in a poor mood, began to smile.“Everyone’s smiling now. That’s great! Sebastian, don’t overthink too much. You too, Rachel. Got it? No matter what happens, we’ll be by your side. We’re here to protect you. Do you understand?” Henry asked.Sebastian and Rachel felt grateful.“If I’m no longer part of the Brenand family, will you still love me the same?” Sebastian asked his friends.Henry directly rolled his eyes at him. “It doesn’t matter if you’re not part of the Brenand family. I'd still love you even if you’re not human anymore. I wouldn’t mind being in a relationship with a ghost.”Everyone couldn’t resist laughing when they heard this, making the amb

The good samaritan allowed her to get into his car.After that, he directly brought her back to the village out of fear of getting into trouble.Once the girl returned, her family treated her even more harshly.The girl went mad.By the time her real family found her, they couldn’t deal with her and decided to leave her behind in the village.They even asked for money from the family that kidnapped her, intending to sell their daughter and never look for her again.Her real family left after being paid. Rachel Wood was much luckier compared to her.Thinking of this story, she turned to look at Sebastian Brenand. “Sebastian, what if you only found me after a few years, and I had gone insane? What would you do then? Would you still want me?”He answered without hesitation. “Yes. I’d bring you home and find a way to heal you. If that doesn’t work, I’ll be with you even if you’re insane for the rest of my life.”His commitment moved her so much that she started crying.Xyla Quest

Rachel Wood was badly hurt, but she still wanted to live with Sebastian Brenand, so they had to give her parents a valid reason.They felt hurt and sympathized with what happened to their daughter, but they were also very pleased with how responsible Sebastian was.He didn’t mind what happened to Rachel and still loved her deeply, sacrificing so much for her.Her parents were very touched by his decision to leave the Brenand family.***As gratitude to his friends for their help, Sebastian and Rachel invited Stanley Batton, Xyla Quest, Gary Lakes, Henry Armstrong, Georgie Clementine, Josh Batton, and Annabeth Cates to Dream Garden one evening for dinner.Rachel’s parents had prepared a feast for them, and everyone had a great time dining together.It was the first time her parents had met so many wealthy folks, so they were on their best behavior.Everyone went home after the meal.Stanley drove Xyla home carefully, showing her around as he knew how bored she had been at home

Whenever Xyla Quest was in a bad mood, Stanley Batton would buy her purses.“I’d buy you a hundred as long as you’re happy,” he said.“But I don’t want purses anymore," she told him. "I already have all the newest designs.”“In that case, I’ll buy you clothes,” he countered.Xyla considered briefly before nodding.It was time to buy some new clothes as spring was around the corner.She hadn’t bought clothes for spring.The two of them immediately came to a consensus, so he brought her to Goldfield Plaza.News that the president and his wife were on the premises took everyone by surprise.All the managers nervously approached them, following them from behind as the couple walked around for a while, only leaving them alone when Stanley told them to.He purchased lots of clothes for Xyla as she practically selected everything she saw without even trying them on.She did the same thing with brands of different qualities.Within a short time, up to a hundred bodyguards behind th

It looked like a carefully crafted idol drama scene with wealthy folks featured in it.Everyone present looked either like wealthy siblings or couples.The party of four turned their attention to Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton when they arrived.Gary Lakes casually dealt a card. “Do you want to play in the next round, Stanley?”Stanley stepped forward with Xyla in his arms, prompting a waiter to bring two chairs over right then.They sat down immediately, Xyla leaning against her husband as he spoke. “Xyla will play, but I’ll pass.”“Deal,” Gary replied.Xyla hadn’t been out to do anything fun for a long while, so she was eager to join in.Truthfully, it wasn't only poker she was excited about. There were many other things she wanted to do after being cooped up at home for so long.Even the air felt more refreshing outside as everything she saw felt exciting.“Xyla, these people seem to be very lucky tonight. You’d better pay close attention later,” Gary warned.“It’s fine. A

The waitress panicked upon seeing that, grabbing a napkin as she knelt on the ground, wiping Josh Batton’s pants frantically while she apologized. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”Josh just smiled dismissively. “It’s fine.”He had always been kind and polite to people around him, not caring much about what happened. All he needed was a new pair of pants.Nearby, Henry Armstrong frowned in annoyance, glaring at the clumsy waitress. “What’s going on? Are you new to this job?”She gasped, attempting to explain while continuing her wiping motion. “I was nervous because he’s my idol.”Henry's facial expression relaxed into an amused grin. “I see. All right, I understand now.”Josh immediately beamed when he heard that. “Would you like an autograph?”“Yes, please.” Her eyes lit up as she spoke, quickly retrieving a small notepad and a pen from her pocket before handing them over to him.He opened the notepad and promptly signed on an empty page before returning them to her.She pocketed the

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

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.
