“Why don’t we check on them using the surveillance system later? We may not see them clearly, but we can at least have a peek,” Xyla Quest suggested. “Maybe we won’t miss them so badly then.”

“Okay,” Stanley Batton agreed instantly.

Their children were already one-year-old in the blink of an eye.

Xyla and Stanley spent the past twelve months by their side, watching them as they grew little by little.

They witnessed their children learn how to walk and speak.

Now, they had an even stronger bond with them.

They were inseparable in the past, but even more so now.

The couple really loved their children and would probably die if they lost them. As a matter of fact, they’d even be willing to die for them.

“All right, let’s get cleaned up and see them through the surveillance system before we would be able to sleep in peace,” she said eagerly.

Her husband nodded.

“Honey, there’s something I need to talk to you about first,” she told him.

He glanced at her curiously, gently swirling

    Stanley Batton promised Xyla Quest last night that he wouldn’t spoil their children without limits.He had said he would deny some of their illogical requests.Then why did he change his mind?He jumped guiltily when he saw his wife. “I was planning to replace that chandelier, anyway. It doesn’t look good anymore.”Xyla continued to frown. “Stanley, how could you do this? Didn’t we agree on not spoiling the kids? Why didn’t you keep your promise?”It was the first time he had failed to keep his promise and over something like that.When Xyla was pregnant, she remembered her husband saying he’d guide their children properly so that they would not become spoiled brats.Now, she wanted to know if he still remembered what he said.“That-Anyway, the chandelier needs to be replaced,” Stanley uttered without much conviction.“It doesn’t! It’s brand new. We bought it just before they were born to decorate the nursery. It’s only been a year!” she yelled in exasperation.“Besides, this

    After a long while, the handymen began speaking one after another—“Xyla is truly impressive. Stanley doesn’t even dare to argue with her.”“Haha! No matter how tough he is to others, he still has to obey his wife when he’s home. What a great man.”“It must be hard for Stanley when his wife has such a dominant personality.”“Xyla is the only person who can overpower Stanley.”“Of course. Have you seen Stanley surrendering to anyone except for Xyla?”Everyone nodded in agreement.The atmosphere felt very tense in the nursery. Even the nannies didn't dare make a sound.Meanwhile, Lynette Batton started crying even more loudly when she realized she wasn’t getting what she wanted.Stanley Batton’s heart hurt even more at the sound of her cries.He couldn’t bear it anymore, so he handed his daughter over to Xyla and turned around to leave.He was a rational thinking man, but there were some emotions even he couldn’t control.He knew how to handle other people and issues, but he

    “It’s different when it’s your own child. When I saw Lynette crying, I felt my heart tearing apart. It was an awful experience.“I used to have a lot of plans after becoming a father. I once thought I’d be able to become a strict parent. I imagined being like a teacher or a friend to our children.“But I now realize that it’s impossible,” Stanley Batton sighed.With that, he gently caressed Xyla Quest’s face. “Give me some time. I’ll try.”His wife nodded. “Okay, but I think we should swap roles. I’ll be the strict parent. I’m a little more cruel than you are.”In reality, she wasn’t cruel, but one of them had to be the strict parent.Since Stanley couldn’t do it, then she would have to.There needed to be a good cop and a bad cop in every family.She used to dream of being an easygoing mother, but now it seemed like her dream might never come true.She couldn’t help but sigh at the thought. “Did you know that I used to think you could become a tough father?”Her husband had

    Rachel Wood’s belly had grown significantly by then since she was now six months along in her pregnancy. She could no longer hide it.Despite her extended belly, she hadn’t gained any weight so far during her pregnancy, so she still looked like a young woman.No one would believe she was pregnant if they didn’t see her belly.Due to her pregnancy, Rachel appeared unusually delicate and demure, with a maternal aura around her.Sebastian Brenand had no intention to let his parents know about her pregnancy before the baby was born. However, what happened today was a complete surprise.He was not at home when they came over unannounced, leaving Rachel and a group of bodyguards to be ambushed.Upon arrival, they had threatened to commit suicide, making everyone frantic and left with no choice but to let them in.Sebastian regretted leaving home today at the thought.Presently, his parents were looking at Rachel’s stomach with grim expressions.“You’ve been sitting there all this ti

    Sebastian Brenand spoke indifferently, his tone resolute. He didn't seem to have any reservation or hesitation whatsoever.Rachel Wood sat beside him as if she was a mere spectator, not wanting to get involved in his family matters.These days, she had grown much wiser due to her pregnancy. Becoming a mother allowed her to become more mature.She also stopped behaving like a saint as she did in the past. She would not hold Sebastian back from his decisions nor offer him advice.She also wouldn’t fight or question him.His reaction made it clear that he wasn’t giving his parents the easy way out.Right then, their facial expressions turned even gloomier.Fuming, Sebastian’s father pointed an accusing finger at his son. “Are you planning to cut off all ties with us? Even if we’ve agreed to let you two stay together?”Sebastian bared his hands without hesitation and nodded. “Why not? You should’ve known everything you did back then was unforgivable.”They had no retort to that, n

    Rachel Wood chuckled. “They are your parents, after all. What if they died in front of our house? How could I let that happen?“I may not like them, and I even considered ignoring them, but I wouldn't wish death on anyone,” she added.Sebastian Brenand felt his heart soften at her words.He let out a bitter laugh as he ran his fingers through her hair affectionately. “You, my dear, are an idiot. You are the biggest and kindest idiot in the world.“My parents would never kill themselves! They were only trying to scare you. They are rich and powerful people. Do you really think they would give up all that?” he asked with a snort.Her brows furrowed together. “What if they did? We should always expect the worst because I can’t bear that responsibility.”“I would never let you bear any responsibility even if it did happen,” Sebastian told her with a soft smile. “Even so, I don’t want to cause anyone’s death,” Rachel insisted.He gently caressed her face. “If this happened to other

    Their baby would be born in a few months, making them a perfect family.Rachel Wood’s expression softened at the thought. Her initial sour mood, caused by Sebastian Brenand’s parents, was now lifted.This baby was like a remedy that could heal everything for Rachel.Sebastian hurriedly placed his hand on Rachel’s stomach before leaning to press his ear against the bump. “Hey, little fellow. Don’t kick too hard, or you might hurt your mother.”The baby kicked again as soon as he finished his sentence. This time, he could feel the movement against his face.His heart melted, and his mood improved as well.“Did you understand what Daddy said? Was that your reply?" he addressed the bump, feeling a need to communicate with his child.“Little fellow, be good and grow strong in Mommy’s stomach. We’ll be able to meet in a few months.“When you are a little older, Daddy will take you and Mommy to see the world, okay?“We'd travel the world and buy many toys for you from the places we v

    Sebastian Brenand and Rachel Wood had been interacting with the baby in her belly, enjoying the peaceful moment together as a family.Meanwhile, his parents were fuming once they arrived home, lamenting that their son was increasingly stubborn.They knew very well that they had thoroughly lost him.His father sat down and clenched his fists tightly before yelling at his wife. “It’s your wonderful idea that caused us to lose our son completely.”“Hey, didn’t you agree to my suggestion of sending that girl to the mountains? Why are you blaming it on me now? Are you even a man?” she retorted in a furious fit.She was unhappy to fail at too many attempts to win her son back lately. Her husband naturally became a target for her to vent out her frustrations now that he suddenly provoked her.At that moment, he was also furious and got even more upset when he heard what she said.He promptly lashed out at her. “Can you stop yapping so much? Yes, I agreed to your suggestion, but you wer

    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.
