Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 682
When Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton heard this, neither of them said a word. All they did was listen silently while May Conner boasted.When their relatives heard what May said, they immediately started expressing how much they envied Emily Quest.“What? Do you mean to say that it’s like Tom was the one who bought all those flowers for Emily? Does that mean their relationship is smooth sailing once again?”“Oh my god. Emily has really done well for herself… From now on, I’ll argue with anyone who says the Sullivan family is not doing well.”“The Sullivan family sure is rich. Emily got married to a good person.”When May heard what everyone was saying, she immediately felt pleased. “Oh, I’m not too sure. Anyway, Emily told me that Tom was contacting someone about planting roses. It’s just a guess on my part. I haven’t asked him.”“Is that true?” Jeremy was wide-eyed.May nodded.“When did the flowers I plant become Tom Sullivan’s?” Stanley, who had been silent all this while, sud

Jeremy Quest saw how envious his relatives were, and he felt immensely proud on the inside.“Isn’t that so? Xyla really did get married to a good person.” May Conner was forced to put in some good words. After that, she turned to look at the Dior bag on the table and changed the topic. “Xyla, what did you get your father?” she asked.“It’s the newest men’s watch from Dior.” Xyla chuckled.“How nice. I bet it must be expensive,” May said.“Not too bad… About 500,000 dollars,” Xyla said.“You always give us expensive gifts. Emily gave your father a watch too, and it cost 1,000,000 dollars. Also, Uncle Sullivan gave your father a golden tortoise. It’s huge, and it costs several hundred thousand too…” May said.Xyla knew what May was trying to imply. May was simply trying to compare her gift to Emily’s, and she wanted to make Emily and the Sullivan family’s presence known.Indirectly, May wanted to imply that the Sullivan family was better than the Batton family because they offered

“These things must individually cost more than that golden tortoise, right?”“Yeah… These are probably all antique items…”“That golden tortoise isn’t even an antique, is it?”“No, it isn’t…”The relatives began discussing softly among themselves.When May Conner listened to them, she immediately felt embarrassed again.If she had known this would happen, she wouldn’t have boasted and made the comparison earlier!Seeing how pleased her father appeared, Xyla felt very thankful to the Batton family.Xyla’s gaze softened.“Isn’t Stanley’s parents being too generous? These gifts prove how important Xyla is in the family.”“Oh my god. The amount of wealth on display here seems even grander than the gifts emperors give as rewards in those period dramas.”“Indeed, the Batton family is supremely wealthy. Even their gifts are unusually expensive.”These relatives were all staring at these gifts, and they seemed to desire them more than anything.Suddenly, they all wished they were

The tournament’s live stream had exceeded ten million views on each website. Xyla Quest’s face was rigid with tension as she walked up the stage with her team members.Live tournaments and pastimes were two different cases. She could never allow herself to make mistakes today and cause her team to lose such an important game. Putting on the headset, Xyla adjusted her keyboard firmly and took a deep breath. She was wearing Team QPG’s uniform, consisting of a set of black Nike sportswear with a white Nike T-shirt. There were various sponsors’ labels all over her body. Her hair was pulled back into a youthful high ponytail, and her makeup was light yet appealing. She was just like a gaming goddess sitting in front of the computer. The team’s Jungler, Simon, was the first to notice Xyla's anxiety. He whispered into the microphone, “Don’t be nervous, boss. You can do it. Just play like how you usually would during training, and everything will be fine.”Levi, the team’s Supp

Soon, the game began.As soon as the game started, four enemies surrounded two of them in the bottom lane. Unfortunately, Xyla Quest and the Support were killed by them in the very next second due to Xyla’s mistake.The opponent had also broken one of the turret’s plates. Everyone in the stadium was on tenterhooks seeing their awful way to start the game. Xyla’s mistake had also caused a big stir in the live stream pop-ups. “Why doesn’t Xyla run? She could’ve just run! I had high hopes for her, but it turns out that she’s just a noob.”“Why doesn’t she try to run? Why? Ugh, she has ruined my mood.”“Holy sh*t! The bottom lane has already collapsed at the beginning.”“Team QPG is going to lose for sure. I take back what I said about Xyla earlier. She’s a f*cking rookie.”“What was she doing just now? Esport is a high standard competition. Get out of here if you can’t match the level of a professional gamer!”Xyla totally had no idea that people were cursing at her madly o

“What’s going on? This is the best game Team QPG has ever played!”“Her operation was amazing! Did you see that group battle at the end? She dodged all the attacks with her daring maneuver! All of them!”“Cool!!! Xyla is so cool that I felt goosebumps!”The audience screamed like lions.The marvelous game had set pulses racing all over the world. Xyla Quest and the rest of the team members were over the moon with their win. There and then, Xyla felt that she was not so nervous anymore. The competition was just like the regular game, after all. Xyla shined like a star on the stage, whereas Stanley Batton gazed at her with a proud smile off stage. Sharon Lindt and Catherine Batton had already lost their sanity. They were constantly clutching each other’s hands and staring at Xyla with admiration written all over their faces. “Why is my sister-in-law so talented? I’m really impressed by her!” Catherine cried. “My daughter-in-law is the best, okay? I’m falling in love wit

“After the interview, Xyla Quest bowed politely to all the workers before leaving the stage. Suddenly, the audience started screaming at the top of their lungs. “Ahhhhhhh!!! My idol!!!”“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Josh Batton, I love you!!!!!!!!!”Xyla immediately turned in the direction of the noises. A black figure was lowering his cap while dashing to the exit. It was Josh Batton. The audience chased after him, frantically, like a swarm of bees. However, Josh was running very fast. It seemed that they would not easily catch him up. However, even so, Xyla was still worried about his safety. She quickly approached the security guards guarding the stage and ordered, “Follow Josh Batton. Keep an eye on him.”Hearing the order, the security guards ran out of the stadium at once. Stanley Batton stepped forward, slowly sliding his hand into hers. “Don’t worry. There are bodyguards outside. They’ll protect him.”Only then did Xyla get the load off her mind and nodded obediently.

Stanley Batton wrapped his arm around her shoulder and sat quietly. He would gently stroke her hair from time to time. The gorgeous couple was acting all lovey-dovey. Everyone in the room was looking enviously at them. Xyla Quest logged onto her Weibo account to take a look at the trending list today.Five out of the first ten hot topics were about the game tonight. #Josh Batton Watching The Game##Xyla Quest Splendid Operation##Doting Gazes From Xyla Quest’s Husband##Team QPG Victory##Team QPG 3:0#Xyla tapped on the first hot topic. The first thing that came into her sight was a netizen’s screenshot of the live stream just now. In the screenshot, Josh Batton watched Xyla on the stage from afar, his eyes filled with tenderness.Josh’s fans went crazy instantaneously. “I must’ve gone mad! I should’ve gone to the stadium today. Why didn’t I go to watch the match? Ugh, I regret it.” “I didn’t know Xyla and Josh are so close. His schedule is really tight, but he’s

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.
