By now, Atlantis International Hotel had its backyard decorated with various cartoon props, animal-shaped balloons, flowers, grass, and replica mushrooms. It looked like a forest-themed castle from a fairy tale.

The ceiling was designed to look like a starry night sky.

Even during the day, looking upward would give one the illusion of standing under a sky full of stars.

The Battons spared no expense to bring the perfect fairy tale world into reality.

Rich and famous people from various countries gathered at the hotel to celebrate the children’s birthday in grandeur.

It was a lively event, where everyone was drinking and chatting in multiple groups.

Stanley Batton and Xyla Quest proudly held their twins, dressed like a little prince and princess, to receive everyone’s best wishes.

Lynette Battton wore a red silk dress, her hair tied up like a doll’s with a red lace headband. A pair of white socks and red flats completed her look.

Meanwhile, Leon Batton had his hair combed neatly

    “Everyone’s attention is on them, showering them with compliments,” Sharon Lindt added, feeling her mood improving as she looked over to the family of four. Wilson Batton also turned to gaze at them as he began to smile. “Yes, they all look particularly radiant today, especially Xyla and our grandchildren. They look wonderful.”Sharon and Wilson acted like their adoring fans.She nodded, and then several wealthy housewives gathered next to her and began to speak—“Hey, Sharon. How do you still look so young when you’re looking after three grandchildren?”“Exactly! I can’t see a single trace of you being anxious about the kids at all.”“Sharon, you’re amazing for looking after all three kids so well. I couldn’t possibly do that if I were you.”“Yeah, I couldn’t do it, either.”The housewives spoke in turn.Sharon released a chuckle upon hearing what they said. “They’re all my grandchildren, so how could I not look after them? Besides, I would only keep worrying unless I work w

Are all the rich people in the world gathered here?”“I can smell money by just looking at these pictures.”“Everyone there has a net worth of at least a couple hundred billion. D*mn!”“Stanley and Xyla are amazing. Their children are practically born winners.”Netizens on the internet couldn’t stay calm at all.They had never seen such a lavish event like that.There were many types of grand parties thrown by rich folks on Weibo, but they had never seen a mor

    Xyla Quest felt instant relief after removing her heels, her entire body relaxing after a long day walking around in them.She was getting worn out from standing straight to maintain her elegant posture during the party. No matter how badly her feet hurt, she held herself together and remained composed while conversing with guests next to Stanley Batton.Now, she could finally stop pretending in front of her family.Sharon Lindt noticed how exhausted she seemed and looked over at Stanley. “Stanley, give your wife a massage. Look at how tired she is.”Her son immediately nodded and placed Xyla’s legs on his thighs before carefully kneading her sore legs.Stanley was getting really good at giving massages.He managed to press on all the right spots on the soles of her feet.Xyla began to feel completely relaxed as if all the blockages in her body had disappeared.“And you," Sharon said, shifting her eyes to Josh Batton. "Although your wife might not be as tired as Xyla, shouldn

    Xyla Quest and Annabeth Cates exchanged amused glances and smiled upon hearing Sharon Lindt's words.If they were honest, they both knew perfectly well that they had such good lives because of Sharon as their mother-in-law.There were countless examples of terrible mothers-in-law around them, so for that reason, the lucky ladies felt particularly grateful toward her.They thanked God for giving them such a wonderful mother-in-law.Sharon beamed. “Xyla, Annabeth, is there anything about me that displeases you? If so, please voice it out. I can change.”They shook their heads vehemently at that notion.“Of course not! You’re the best mother-in-law in the world,” Annabeth declared.“I have no complaints, either," Xyla spoke up right after her. "You are such a wonderful person. So is Dad. Your sons are also great men. There is absolutely nothing about this family we'd ever change.”Xyla meant every word she said.She couldn’t think of anything the Batton family did that made her f

    There were times when Xyla Quest honestly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry about Sharon Lindt.Sharon Lindt would always blame everything on Stanley Batton regardless of why or what happened to make Xyla feel down. Moreover, Sharon had a knack for sounding very persuasive when hurling accusations at her sons.It was a pretty impressive talent of hers.Right then, Sharon had a grave expression on her face. “Why shouldn’t I? You’re obviously unhappy, so how could I not blame him? Besides, no matter what happens, it’s always Stanley’s fault whenever you’re not in a good mood.”Josh Batton wore a helpless look on his face. “I feel bad for Stanley. Mom, is he even your real son?”“Whenever he makes Xyla unhappy, I’d wish he wasn’t,” his mother grumbled.Josh gently patted his brother on his shoulder. “My heart goes out to you, Bro.”“You don’t have to feel sorry for him. I think of you the same way,” she reminded him with a deadpanned expression.His facial expression instantly

    Wilson Batton was also very excited at the mention of lobsters, so the family finally decided on it.Soon, their black Rolls-Royce limousine stopped in front of an alley entrance, and then the group walked to a restaurant at the furthest end.It was the most famous restaurant that served the best lobsters in Atlantis at an affordable price range.It was so famous that people came from all over the world.The current hour was a popular time for city dwellers to have supper, so a huge crowd was waiting in line outside the restaurant.The Batton family was a regular client plus a family friend of the restaurant's owner, so they were ushered inside directly by a waiter.They were seated at a large table by the window in the main lobby since there were no private rooms available.The space was only sufficient for over twenty tables in the main lobby.Right then, apart from their table by the window, all other tables were occupied.Members of the Batton family didn’t avoid scrutiny

    Everyone wore disposable gloves before feasting on lobsters while drinking beer, ignoring other patrons around them who were taking their pictures from afar.They were thankfully not intrusive, aside from making various comments and photo-taking, so the Batton family felt more at ease.The restaurant was running at maximum capacity, and the interior was smoky within.The Battons seemed like a regular group of people in that restaurant, having a meal and doing ordinary things just like other people.They were no different from everyone else, so they could blend in perfectly apart from their designer clothes.They managed to finish every dish in record time as everyone was generally in high spirits and no longer full from the food at the birthday party.After the meal, Stanley Batton settled the bill before they all left the restaurant together.Even after they were gone, people were still commenting in the restaurant.“D*mn. This family is so down to earth. I thought rich people

    Sharon Lindt beamed when she saw everyone’s comments.“Men in our family treat their wives well despite being rich. It's something to be proud of,” she said with her head resting against Wilson Batton’s shoulder.Although the couple had already been together for decades, they still acted like newlyweds.Xyla Quest and Annabeth Cates couldn’t help but feel envious of them despite being in loving relationships themselves.“I know many people want to marry into our family, but I’m sorry to say that I have no other single sons. Besides, our sons have no plans of getting married a second time,” she said with a chuckle.Wilson nodded as he gazed affectionately at his wife. “Yeah, you’re right.”“Of course,” she replied smugly.“Dad, Mom, I’m genuinely envious of you two. You still seem like newlyweds even after being married for decades,” Xyla expressed“Yes, I’m super envious, too. It would be great if Josh and I are like this in the future,” Annabeth spoke up.“You will. You don’t

    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.
