Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 688
“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.

She glared at the chill man resentfully. “Are you even human?”Stretching his long arms, the man pulled her into his embrace and held her tightly, his chin rubbing her hair repeatedly. “This isn’t how you looked just now.”Xyla Quest’s blush seared through her cheeks, all the way to her neck. Her heart leaped up as if it was electrocuted. “Shameless.”“Good girl… I’ll be more careful next time.”Be more careful next time? Was he trying to fool a three-year-old kid? He said that every single time. But guess what?He was only getting more aggressive. “If a man’s word can be trusted, I guess the pigs can live on the tree too.” A chuckle escaped the man’s lips. “Shall we take a bath?” “Okay… Carry me. I can’t move at all.” Xyla wrapped her arms around his neck and pouted. Stanley Batton placed one arm around her back and scooped the other arm around the bend in her knees, lifting her effortlessly. Then, he made his way to the bathroom. He filled the bathtub with warm w

Only then did he understand how lonely it was to wait for someone who would never come home. How many nights did Rachel Wood wait in silence like him right now?As he thought about it, he realized he was unforgivably mean to Rachel in the past. He was heartless. He was a bastard. Irritation spiked Sebastian Brenand as he reminded himself how terrible he was. He got up and lit a cigarette, taking quick drags on it grumpily. He had been smoking really uncontrollably these days. He used to take a couple of cigarettes a day. However, a pack of cigarettes was simply not enough for him to survive a day now. Sebastian was breathless with guilt and exasperation even after he puffed at a few cigarettes. At last, he crushed the butt of the cigarette with his heels and grabbed his phone, calling his assistant, Jean Hanson, sulkily. “Jean, you don’t have to come to work anymore starting tomorrow…”His words startled the sleepy Jean over the other end of the phone. Instantly, he rol

Xyla Quest’s cheeks turned pink instantaneously. “Gosh, it’s not what you’re thinking. I didn’t mean you’re lame in that way…”“What do you mean then?”“It’s just not what you’re thinking…”“Well… I’ll let you know if I’m lame or not, right now.”Xyla was on the verge of tears. She had just recovered from the exhaustion from last night, but her limbs were drained of all energy again now. She weakly lifted her head and caught a glimpse of the clock. It was almost noon. He was a real pain in the neck!!!“Stanley Batton… I warn you not to do this anymore.” Xyla got up from the bed while complaining. Stanley grinned mischievously and sat up. Extending his arm, he pulled her into his embrace once more and gently kissed her forehead. “Okay, I’ll control myself next time.” Upon hearing that, Xyla knew that he was trying to brush her off again!Xyla glanced at him, coldly before putting on a white camisole dress and heading to the bathroom. Stanley simply wrapped a towel arou

She did not know when it started, but Stanley Batton would always be the one preparing the meals as long as they were at home. He would also wash the dishes after they had their meals and did all the other household chores. Everything was contrary to what they had agreed to when they first moved into this house. In the past, both of them would divide the chores equally. However, the situation had changed as time crept by. He was now in charge of all the heavy work. The man seemed to be accustomed to their current lifestyle too. He would automatically settle everything for his girl, spoiling her like a little princess. Xyla Quest had also gotten used to it. She was used to being pampered by him every day. She was used to having her man to take charge of all the household chores.No matter how tough the real world was, she would always be his baby girl in this house. Whenever she returned to their home, he would welcome her with his warm embrace. Likewise, no matter

“Yes… I love you to death, Xyla…” Stanley Batton answered truthfully. His eyes were brimmed with strong possessiveness as he spoke. They were like dangerous cheetahs locking upon their prey.“I only had an armor back then, and I’m not afraid of anything. However, your appearance has given me a soft spot…” Stanley held her hand with a serious expression etched on his face. His one short sentence had touched Xyla Quest’s heart. She could feel a prickly feeling at the tip of her nose as she met his eyes. “In the past, many people tried to attack me, but they didn’t know how to do it. Now that I have you, it’s not going to be the same anymore. If they take you away from me, I will risk my life to snatch you back,” Stanley continued. Xyla’s eyes were rimmed red upon hearing his sincere confession. To Stanley, she was more important than his life. “I love you very, very, very much too…” Xyla sobbed. “I know. Let’s eat. The noodles are getting cold.” Stanley pinched her cheeks

“It’s Tang Bohu’s painting. Xyla told me that you love to collect antique calligraphy and paintings, especially Tang Bohu’s artworks.” Jeremy Quest responded. A smile blossomed on Wilson Batton’s face when he heard his favorite painter’s name. Without further ado, he unfolded the handscroll in front of everyone. This beautiful painting was a collection that he had longed for. Unfortunately, he was late to the auction last time. As a result, someone else had taken away this painting for twenty million dollars. He could not believe that Jeremy was actually that ‘someone else’. “Aye! Thank you so much, Jeremy!” Wilson held the painting joyfully and admired it with all his heart. He looked very much like a little girl encountering her beloved idol in real life. Xyla Quest understood why her father was willing to give Wilson his favorite painting of all time.The Batton family had given her family many valuable gifts. Hence, he wanted to return something of the same value to

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.

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.

That meant this wasn’t a dream. It was real!Hannah felt even more dumbfounded…This meant Leon actually liked her!

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

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.

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.
