Soon, a gap opened at the door.

A girl with blonde hair tied into two ponytails and bangs of uniform length popped her head out through the door.

The girl looked at him with her head slanted and a gorgeous smile. Her almond-shaped eyes filled with innocence were pure and the dimples around the corner of her mouth made her look extra cute.

“Why are you here this late?” She complained. Her voice was sweet and clear.

“I had something to do, why did you dye your hair? It looks horrible…” He frowned slightly with a look of disgust.

Although his eyes were filled with disgust, his movements and eye contact were very gentle.

The girl opened the door fully and rolled her eyes at him straightaway. “This colour is trendy this year, alright? Don’t you have any taste?”

“Alright, alright… I have no taste, happy with that?” After he said that, he gently caressed her hair and walked into her room.

The girl closely followed him from behind and sat onto the couch together with him.

    “Hmph… I’m not a kiddo anymore, I’m eighteen.”“Kiddo…” Stanley gently caressed her hair once again.He stayed in the room and talked to Catherine for a while longer. After that, he got a call from the company and left straightaway.Catherine Batton went to take a quick bath. She changed into a pastel pink floral dress, matched with a white knitted jacket and a pair of little white shoes. She then grabbed her ID card and went straight to a cybercafe nearby.There were no private rooms left and she did not like to have too many people around her. Therefore, she booked a row of computers and sat randomly in front of one.After she switched on the computer, she clicked into League of Legends and got into a team.At that moment, a group of youngsters came in. They placed their IDs accordingly onto the counter. They were led by a youngster with blonde hair. He leaned against the counter slovenly while looking at the beautiful manager and said, “Get us six computers…”“I’m sorry but w

    After she said that, Catherine Batton stretched her neck once again and continued to squint at the boys while frowning.“You… You… Look at how bad you had beaten me up! I'm going to make you pay!” The blonde youngster pointed at Catherine’s face while panting. Meanwhile, his other hand was still covering his weakest spot. He panted in pain while stuttering. “Do you know what the right of self-defence is? And you still want money for that? Who do you think you are?” Catherine snorted coldly and started to warm up her fists.The group of boys who were led by the blonde youngster were frightened to death when they witnessed that scene. Strong flashes of timidity appeared in each of their eyes and their bodies started to tremble subconsciously.“You… What are you trying to do?” The blonde youngster was pointing at her while trembling uncontrollably.“To beat y’all up once again, of course,” Catherine spoke casually. Her sentence ended with a smile like a blooming flower.Although sh

    “On the other hand, Jay Corben and Morty Wayne were totally different, alright? Didn’t you notice? Jay Corben treated everyone else coldly, he didn’t even care much about the others but he would play pranks on Morty and make him laugh frequently… That’s what you call a couple, alright? The ‘Morty and Jay’ couple is real.” Catherine Batton got more excited as she spoke and her face was getting even more delighted.“Yours is fake and mine is real.” The girl insisted.Catherine persisted as well. “Yours is fake and only mine is real. The couple that I supported must be true.”Due to Catherine’s aura, the girl did not continue to refute. She turned around quietly and continued to Photoshop the photo.Catherine did not care about her anymore as well, she turned around straightaway and went to get water for herself. She mumbled while she was walking, “Hmph, the couple that I like is the real one, ‘Morty and Jay’ are real, they’re real!”***Throughout the whole afternoon, Xyla Quest co

    “That should be it. Nowadays, there are a lot of girls who prefer gay couples. If we do that, we could attract this bunch of girls to become their fans. By that time, their popularity would be unstoppable... ” Georgie Clementine said.“Hmm… We will discuss more about the disengagement afterwards. As for now, you should go and talk to Morty and Jay about this matter.” After that, Xyla ended the call. She put on her sky-blue jacket and walked out.Firstly, Xyla went to the supermarket and bought some vegetables.She then got back home and made five dishes together with a soup.After she served all the dishes, she subconsciously picked up her phone and was about to text him.Right after she sent out the sentence ‘When will you be back for dinner?’, she deleted it immediately.Not knowing since when, they had formed this tacit understanding between them where no matter who reached home first and made dinner, he or she would send a message through WeChat and ask when the other one w

    There were many people around Josh Batton and Stanley Batton, but all the ladies in the room had their eyes on them.Meanwhile, their gazes were focused on the girl downstairs.When Catherine Batton finally got tired of dancing, she ran upstairs and stood in between the two of them. “You guys are boring. We said we would come here to dance, but none of you went down to dance. You’re only watching me dance,” she said with a smile and narrowed eyes.Josh gently brushed her nose. There was a look of fondness under his shades. “Are you tired?”After that, Josh removed a white handkerchief from his pocket before carefully wiping sweat off her face.Catherine grabbed the handkerchief and quickly wiped her sweat off. “I’m fine… Josh, can I ask you for a favor?”“Do you even need to ask? Just tell me,” Josh answered without hesitation.After that, he smiled gently.“Hehe… Could you get me autographs from Jay Corben and Morty Wayne?” Catherine asked while she blinked her large, glimmeri

    Xyla Quest quickly came back to her senses. “Nothing much. I’m just thinking that your girlfriend is rather lucky.”Stanley Batton looked deeply at Xyla. “Yeah… She sure is.”Hearing this, Xyla’s heart pounded a little. She had a stunned expression on her face too.However, she quickly recovered. “I’ll wait for the food in the dining room,” she said.“Are you sure there’s nothing on your mind?” Stanley asked with a serious look.“Yeah… I look terrible because I stayed up late for work,” Xyla said before directly turning around and walking into the dining room.Stanley frowned confusedly. He did not press on for more answers. Instead, he carefully used his chopsticks to flip the bacon strips over on the flat pan.***May Conner’s birthday party was unusually grand.Luxury cars were parked everywhere outside and inside the Quest family’s courtyard.Inside the house, the living room was decorated like a banquet hall.There were bright and colorful balloons, pure white roses, to

    Inside, there was an intricate jade bracelet that looked like it was of the highest quality.May Conner smiled. “Thank you, Xyla… Thank you, Stan.”Right then, Tony Sullivan walked in with Mary Sullivan and Bailey Ronson…Mary was the most eye-catching of the three, wearing a little red evening gown with a high ponytail. There was a proud look in her eyes.The moment Mary saw Xyla Quest, her gaze went cold.The family made their way directly to May.The two adults from the Sullivan family began exchanging pleasantries with May and Jeremy Quest while they offered best wishes for May’s birthday.Xyla’s attention was entirely focused on the butterfly-shaped diamond pendant around Mary’s neck. She didn’t have any expression on her face.Mary, who remained silent the entire time, shifted her attention to Xyla.When Mary saw the necklace around Xyla’s neck, she immediately snorted coldly. “Xyla… Isn’t that Blue Romance around your neck?”“What’s the matter?” Xyla asked.Mary snort

    At this moment, a large group of rich housewives surrounded Mary Sullivan and began eyeing her necklace and examining the pendant carefully.While they did this, they complimented her.“Hey, it really is Sunny’s work of art. Look at the intricate details. This butterfly looks so real.”“Mary, it’s amazing that you managed to buy Sunny’s product. This person is very mysterious, and she only works with one brand every year to release a single design of jewelry. In fact, they are always one-of-a-kind in the world.”“Many women can only dream of buying these one-of-a-kind designs from her… I try to buy it every year, but I always fail.”These women were so noisy that Xyla Quest couldn’t hear what Rebecca Robin was saying on the phone.Hence, Xyla grabbed Stanley Batton’s hand and walked away. “Aunt Rebecca, how are you? I’m at a birthday party, and it’s extremely noisy here. I couldn’t hear what you said earlier,” Xyla said gently.“Oh, it’s fine. I just asked if you could put the c

    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

    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.
