Xyla Quest looked confused. She immediately opened Weibo to check it out.

Right then, she saw her name on the list of trending topics. Xyla knew what had happened right away.

She covered her forehead, but she didn’t tap on any of the links. After closing Weibo, she continued to look around the building with the management staff members.

To be honest, the second floor wasn’t huge. Apart from the players and the coach’s room, there was also a physiotherapy room, a gym, and a counseling room.

They finished the full tour within an hour.

After that, the management staff members brought Xyla back to the first floor. Xyla was the first to sit down by the coffee table.

The management staff members were all hesitant, and none of them dared to sit down first.

“Sit…” Xyla immediately smiled at them warmly.

Only then did they all sit down together.

Xyla jumped right in. “I believe all of you are feeling very insecure because of the new change in ownership. Isn’t that so?” Xyla asked.

    Xyla Quest found it quite rewarding to be the boss of her favorite players.Henry Armstrong stood up right away, and lazily approached Xyla. “I’ve brought you the guy you wanted. Have a good chat. I have to leave first,” he said.“Aren’t you going to stay and eat with us?” Xyla asked confusedly.Henry shook his head, helplessly. “Something’s off about Sebastian. I have to check on him,” he said.Xyla had always been under the impression that Sebastian was a heartless man. Hence, she was surprised to learn from Henry that Sebastian was not his usual self. “What’s up with him?” Xyla asked.“The only thing that affects him is his relationship with women. Rachel Wood left him. He’s probably feeling sad about it. Don’t worry. He’s a heartless guy, and he’ll be fine in a few days,” Henry replied.Xyla had never thought that Sebastian would feel sad over a girl.In the past, he used to date around very frequently. It was as if he never truly cared about any of those women.However, Xy

    Everybody knew who their boss was speaking to without having to guess.Apart from Xyla Quest, their boss would definitely not show such a pleasant facial expression to anyone else. In fact, Stanley Batton would never speak this nicely in front of anyone else.“Why are you suddenly eating at the staff’s cafeteria?” Xyla asked.“Hmm. I felt like eating the tomato scrambled eggs here,” Stanley said truthfully.“In that case… Enjoy your meal! I’m still spending time with the players. Talk to you back at home,” Xyla said.“Okay. I’ll pick you up after work tonight,” Stanley said.“Alright.”After hanging up, Xyla turned around and was about to walk into the room when she heard a man’s voice from behind.“Hey… Aren’t you Xyla Quest?”The unfamiliar voice made Xyla stop moving, and she immediately turned around to look at the man.He was a plump, middle-aged man who wore Armani from head to toes.Xyla didn’t recognize him. “Do I know you?”The man walked up to her and extended a h

    The young man chuckled a little. “Anyway, none of the pretty ladies I know are good at gaming—besides, none of them like spending time on games. I simply don’t believe Xyla when she said she’s good at the game,” he said.Right then, Alex came out of the room.As soon as he did so, he overheard the young man insulting Xyla Quest. He quickly walked over to Xyla. “Why don’t we go somewhere, and my boss can show you her skills?” Alex asked.“Sure… Xyla, do you have the guts? Let’s go against each other, solo. I’m not great, but only the fifth in the country’s server,” the young man said.Although they had only met each other once, Xyla already disliked this man.Clearly, he was trying to kiss Hugo Clive’s ass because Hugo’s power was more alluring than Xyla’s wealth.“Sure. But you’ll have to wait until I’m done eating. Let’s do it after dinner,” Xyla said. There were a bunch of people waiting for her in the room. It wouldn’t be polite for her to leave right now.“Don’t be a coward.

    Amigo glanced at Xyla Quest’s account. “What’s your tier?”“Silver…” Xyla said.“I’m a Challenger. I feel bad for bullying a Silver player like you,” Amigo said sarcastically.“She boasted so much earlier, but she turns out to only be a Silver player?”“Yeah… I thought she would at least be Platinum or something.”“Pretty lady, what gave you the courage?”The players who gathered around couldn’t resist laughing at Xyla.Xyla ignored them, and she looked at Amigo’s ID before searching for his account and adding him as a friend.After that, she created a ‘1-versus-1’ game and invited Amigo to enter her room.“Pretty lady, you can choose any hero you want…” Amigo said.“You go first,” Xyla said.“Don’t regret it later…” Amigo snorted coldly.With that, he picked Aphelios right away.Meanwhile, Xyla casually chose Ezreal.When Amigo saw the hero Xyla picked, he started laughing. Hugo Clive and the rest of the people around started laughing too…“Xyla, I think you lack knowle

    Xyla Quest probably got lucky earlier.Perhaps, Amigo was simply too horrible a player.“Which server are you in?” Xyla Quest asked as she looked at Hugo Clive.“Wait. I’ll search for you…” Hugo said before quickly logging into the game and entering Xyla’s server.He was also a Challenger in this server.After they added each other as friends, Xyla created another ‘1-versus-1’ game and invited him.This time, Hugo chose Aphelios as well.Meanwhile, Xyla chose Ezreal as she did before.The entire internet cafe had become quiet. More and more players were gathered around them, and they all paid attention to the match between Xyla and Hugo.In fact, many of them took their phones out and began recording them.Hugo began feeling nervous because he couldn’t allow himself to lose. If he lost, he would be thoroughly embarrassed.Meanwhile, Xyla remained calm as usual. There wasn’t any emotion in her eyes.Once the game started, she began to play silently. She was like an elegant p

    “What did Alex call that woman just now? Boss? Holy sh*t… I recognize her now. I think she’s Xyla Quest… No wonder she looks so familiar.”“I didn’t know she’s so good at video games. This is why she’s trying to acquire a professional team.”“Come on! Shouldn’t you two be posting on Weibo right now? Don’t chicken out.”“Amigo, you’re a famous anchor. It’s not a big deal to lose a bet, right? Hurry up and post it.”Suddenly, there was a drastic change in the crowd’s attitude toward the three of them. Hugo Clive and the young man had become a target of public criticism. This scandal had left the two with egg on their face. They felt like their faces were being slapped by Xyla Quest, again and again, leaving behind four burning hot cheeks. They both started to regret what they had done earlier. Why did they accept this stupid challenge in the first place?Taking a deep breath, the young man hesitantly logged onto his Weibo account and typed, “@XylaQuest, I’m sorry for despising

    ”Why did the owner of Team RS and the well-known gaming anchorman, Amigo, apologize to Xyla Quest?” Xyla Quest totally did not expect their little conflict to make headlines. She opened the article without hesitation. “A few minutes ago, Team RS’s official Weibo page had expressed their apologies to Xyla Quest. They had reflected on their misbehavior to look down on Xyla Quest’s gaming skills. Besides, Amigo—the famous gaming anchorman—had also uploaded a similar post.“Likewise, he apologized for being condescending toward Xyla, and he even addressed Xyla as ‘daddy’. The bizarre events that took place simultaneously had attracted the attention of countless gamers in no time.“Shortly after the two posts, a player revealed the truth behind their sudden apologies at ESPN, a sports commentary and news platform. According to him, Xyla mentioned that she was good at video games but was despised by the Team RS’s boss and Amigo.“To prove herself, the three of them went to a nearby

    “It’s not impossible, though. There’ve been cases of team owners taking part in the tournament before. They don’t train often, but they can play really well. Hey, the Summer Playoffs semifinals is in a couple of weeks. Why don’t you give it a try and play for the team?” Alex suggested.Inwardly, Xyla Quest was tempted by his encouragement. However, she forced herself to hold back her desire. “Nah… It’d be bad if I ruin the team's performance.”Playing a game and playing a match were two different cases after all. She might be good at playing games, but that did not mean that she could excel in matches. On top of that, she had never trained with anyone in the team. She had no confidence that she could cooperate well with them. If something went wrong in the middle of the game, they would lose the tournament, and the consequences were dire. “I think you can do it, boss. Maybe you can win the first regular season championship for our club!” Simon gushed.“You guys need to stop. P

    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.
