Xyla Quest immediately nodded. She felt the same way too.“Alright. Let’s not talk about this. You don’t have to worry, alright?” Stanley Batton ruffled her hair affectionately again.Xyla nodded before turning up the music in the car.Coincidentally, a song that Stanley sang before, ‘From Now On’, was playing.“From now on, be there wild winds or calmness, poverty or wealth, you will always be in the bottom of my heart and my eyes.”The original singer’s voice made the song sound very good. Coupled with the moving lyrics, it made Xyla’s heart feel warm.However, she still felt that Stanley’s rendition of it was the best.“I think that you sing better than him,” Xyla said with a chuckle.“Oh?” Stanley turned to look at Xyla with a seemingly faint smile on his face.Although the view outside was very pretty, Xyla found Stanley way more attractive.In that instant, she felt as if she would soon drown in his eyes.“Hmm… So, can you sing it for me?” Xyla turned the music off.S

“Darling, you’re the only person who can make me do something like this,” Stanley Batton said affectionately.When Xyla heard this, she found it very sweet from the bottom of her heart. “Is that true?”“Do you think anyone else can make me do that?” Stanley asked.“I guess not…” Xyla said.Stanley smiled widely without saying anything.At that moment, the traffic light turned green. Their red Maserati continued to move forward.“Would you like to go shopping?” Stanley asked when he saw Goldfield Plaza by the side of the road.“No. I’m feeling tired today.” Xyla shook her head.“Alright then…”“What’s the matter? Do you want to buy something?” Xyla asked.“No. I just want to buy things for you,” Stanley said.That felt heart-warming to Xyla.Her husband was very nice to her.“It’s alright. There’s nothing I want to buy for now…” Xyla said.“Okay.”Stanley didn’t say anything else as he kept one hand on the steering wheel and reached out to her with his other hand.Xyla o

“Soon after they lived together, Catherine was born. They had a pretty happy life together, but it didn’t last. When she was three, her parents were run over and killed by a large truck on their way home after working in the fields. Back then, nobody in the family knew about it, and there wasn’t a single person in the village who knew my uncle’s real identity.“Hence, the village chief sent Catherine to an orphanage. When Catherine turned seven, my grandfather missed my uncle so much that he sent my father to look for him in the village. However, the village folks told my father that my uncle and his wife had died.“They also informed my father that Catherine was sent to an orphanage. Hence, my father hurried over to the orphanage and brought Catherine home. He treated her like his daughter ever since,” Stanley Batton explained.When Stanley talked about these things, he couldn’t help but recall the first time Catherine came to their house. He remembered the day she came to their fa

“Isn’t that normal?” Gary Lakes rested his arm over Sebastian Brenand’s shoulders while ushering him into the bar. “He already has a family. How could he behave like us?” Gary asked.“I’ve never seen Stanley treating a woman like this before. Xyla truly is special… She’s something else,” Sebastian said.“Isn’t that right?” Gary added.After hanging the phone up, Stanley Batton removed his earphones, put them in his pockets, and looked at Xyla. “Would you like to go out tomorrow night?” He asked.“Sure. But it’s a gathering between you and your friends. Would you guys feel uncomfortable if I were there?” Xyla nodded.“No…” Stanley said.“Alright,” Xyla nodded and said. She then continued to hold Stanley’s hand tightly.“Oh, right. I already know Sebastian’s identity. What about Henry and Gary? Who are they?” Xyla couldn’t suppress her curiosity when she thought about these people.“They are quite similar to Sebastian…” Stanley said.Xyla understood instantly and didn’t press on

When Xyla Quest saw how serious Stanley Batton looked, she felt very proud from the bottom of her heart.She was fortunate to have met such a wonderful person like him after going through so much hardships on her own.Although Stanley was like a divine being who ruled over the rest of the population, he was willing to get off his high horse and do the most mundane things in the world for Xyla. For example, he cooked for her.When Stanley looked up, his eyes immediately met with Xyla’s gentle gaze.He instantly held her up and placed her on his lap. “Why are you staring at me? Do you want sex?”Xyla’s heart shuddered at the question. Her body began to feel hot, and she couldn’t help but blush. “Stanley, can’t you think of more appropriate things?”“How are my thoughts inappropriate now?” Stanley asked.“You’re a jerk. Mmphh…”Before Xyla could finish her sentence, Stanley pressed his lips against hers.As soon as that happened, everything became a mess.“Beep, beep, beep…” Xyl

“She must be calling to apologize…” Xyla Quest said.“Yeah. Are you going to forgive her?” Stanley Batton exhaled a puff of smoke before lifting her hand and giving it a gentle peck.“I’m not keen on forgiving her. She doesn’t deserve it,” Xyla said nonchalantly.Xyla knew all too well how the Sullivan family and Bailey Ronson were.If she forgave Bailey this time, she would definitely do something like this again.This time, it was clear that Bailey was bent on destroying her. If Xyla let it slide and forgave Bailey, Xyla might just think that something was wrong with her brain.Bailey had never been an easy person to deal with.“Okay.” Stanley gently pulled Xyla into his embrace with one hand while he held onto his cigarette with the other.“Forget it. Let’s take a shower after you’re done smoking. I feel much better now,” Xyla added.“Alright,” Stanley said.After Stanley was done smoking, he carried Xyla into the bathroom to take a shower.Throughout the process, Stanley

“No…” Stanley Batton said before hugging Xyla Quest tightly, and the two engaged in a passionate exchange.After a long while, Stanley finally let go of Xyla and carried her into the bathroom to get themselves cleaned up.Once they were done, Stanley chirpily headed downstairs to make breakfast.Meanwhile, Xyla dragged her exhausted body over to the dressing table and sat in front of it.When she looked at her reflection in the mirror, she noticed the red markings all over her body. A sense of devastation filled her.Xyla realized there was a lot of covering up to do.After a long, frustrated sigh, she poured a little bit of toner onto her hands and patted it against her face.Beep, beep, beep…Right then, her phone began to ring on the bed.Xyla immediately stood up and continued to pat her face while she walked over to the bed to pick up her phone.When she saw that the call was from her father, she smiled gently. She answered the call before returning to the dressing table

“Yeah,” Stanley Batton replied calmly.“You should let her in. We have to ask her about a few things,” Xyla Quest said.“She won’t be leaving. Let’s have our breakfast in peace first,” Stanley said as he placed a sandwich in front of Xyla.“Okay,” she said.***After breakfast, Xyla and Stanley went out together.Right then, Bailey was still waiting in front of the main entrance.When Bailey saw Xyla’s car approaching, she immediately ran in front of the car and extended her arms frantically to block Xyla from leaving.In the next second, Xyla’s red Maserati and Stanley’s black Bentley Arnage came to a halt simultaneously.Xyla frowned slightly before lowering the window on her side and glared at Bailey coldly.Bailey quickly walked over to Xyla’s side and tried to open the door to her car but to no avail.“Aunt Bailey, what made you suddenly think of investigating my husband? Did someone tell you something about him? Or did they give you some unreliable information?” Xyla a

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.
