“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

Everyone felt even more shocked! They began looking at each other at once.Was the vice president’s wife personally cooking for Xyla Quest? Who would have thought that was possible?After chatting with Rebecca Robin for a while, Xyla hung up.Very soon, the crowd surrounded Xyla and began asking her about her relationship to Rebecca. She was like a celebrity all of a sudden.The people around Xyla were bombarding her with questions one after another. The voices were all mixed up such that Xyla couldn’t even quite clearly hear them.Xyla also had no idea who she should reply to first.All she could do was smile awkwardly while she listened to their unending list of questions…Meanwhile, Mary felt like a neglected child nearby, with nobody batting an eyelid at her now.Mary felt as if her attention had been stolen away by Xyla completely. Right then, she was feeling extremely annoyed.Was Xyla so capable that she could now mingle closely with influential people like Rebecca?Ma

“For the time being, I still haven’t been able to find anything. Please give me more time…” The man’s voice could be heard from the other end of the call.“Why haven’t you found anything? Are you useless?” Emily Quest said disappointedly. She seemed very unhappy.“Miss Quest, could it be… that there’s nothing at fault with your sister’s husband? Why else can’t I find anything?” The man asked carefully.“That’s impossible. Keep investigating. My intuition is never wrong. If you haven’t found anything, why did you call me?” Emily yelled scornfully.“I just called to tell you that my pay for this month is late by two days.”“I know! I’ll give you one more month. If you can’t find anything, you can get lost,” Emily said through gritted teeth before hanging up right away.***Downstairs, Xyla Quest was still the center of attention.There was an increasing number of women surrounding her. They kept trying to talk to her about the vice president’s wife.Having to suddenly deal with

Jeremy Quest couldn’t resist raising his thumb. “Xyla, you are truly excellent. Indeed, you live up to the expectations I have for you as my heir.”“To be honest, it’s probably because she liked the way I looked,” Xyla said. This was the only reason Xyla could think of if she had to provide an explanation.“Regardless of what the reason is, I still think you are amazing,” Jeremy complimented her yet again. He seemed very proud of Xyla.“Yeah, Xyla is amazing. But you should be careful when interacting with people like her. If you make a wrong move, you might end up dragging the entire family business down,” May said and smiled at Xyla while she pretended to be concerned.Xyla looked at May calmly while she replied to her. “Okay… Thank you for the reminder, Aunty. I know what to do. If there’s nothing else, Aunty, we’ll be heading back. I need to get ready to go over to the vice president’s residence tonight.”“Okay, okay… Oh right, Xyla. I want to buy you a new race car… Don’t you

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.
