She was now more confident that her speculation was correct. After pondering for a few seconds, she nodded and said, “Okay. I trust you.” Only then did Stanley Batton let out a deep sigh of relief. He immediately pulled her into his arms. “I’ll have someone to check it out, and I’ll prove to you that I’m not lying.” Xyla Quest nodded. The turmoil in her mind and heart had finally come to an end. It was as if beautiful flowers were blooming on a piece of desolate land again. “You really do believe me, right?” Stanley gradually calmed himself down. Xyla nodded once more. “After thinking about it for the whole day, I think I should trust you. I should give you a chance to explain yourself instead of accusing you based on that recording alone.”Suddenly, Stanley felt a surge of warmth flowing in his veins. He was extremely touched. He sighed and met Xyla’s eyes. “Actually… I didn’t plan to let you know about my disease, but since you have brought it up… I guess I should be h

“Therefore, the reason our paths crossed isn’t as simple as fate…“You know what happened next, including my feelings and all. I’ve told you before. I’m telling you all this because I want you to know that I really do love you. Xyla, we’re together because I love you. It has nothing to do with your blood.“If I were after your blood, how could I not hold back from touching you for two whole years after we got married? I’m with you because I love you. There’s no other reason.”Stanley Batton kept explaining. He tried his best to express his innermost feelings to Xyla Quest. Xyla felt at ease after discovering the truth behind their relationship. As she recalled her heedlessness, fury, and anguish when she first heard the recording, she could not help but laugh at herself. She could only blame herself for being overwhelmed by resentment. It was a moment of reckless impetuousness that caused her to lose her rationality. “Fine… I trust you, hubby.” Xyla nodded lightly. She then

Xyla Quest immediately explained to Stanley Batton how he met Christopher Lancelot and why he brought her here to race. The man remained expressionless after listening to her explanation. Xyla knew that he was jealous. She threw her arms around his neck and pouted. “Don’t be angry with me. Okay?”Stanley sighed helplessly. “Xyla, what should I do with you?” Sometimes, he really did not know what to do with her. No matter how angry he was, his heart instantly melted when she was affectionate. There were times when he compromised just by looking at her face. Xyla’s smile widened. “Hmm… If you have no idea what to do with me, keep on spoiling me like a princess then.”The corners of Stanley’s soft lips gradually curved upward into a slight smile. “Are we good now?” Xyla asked. “You’re not jealous anymore, right?” Stanley gently tapped her nose and teased, “You’re really something, Xyla.”“Shall we go home?” Xyla asked.Stanley started the car and departed right away.

Ron Batton gazed at them thoughtfully. Having no other choice, he nodded helplessly. “Okay then.”After that, Ron went upstairs, leaving the two alone in the living room. The two watched the old man until he was out of their sight. Making sure that he had gone upstairs, Stanley Batton placed his right hand behind Xyla Quest’s back, scooped her knees, and lifted her. “Let’s get some rest too. Hmm?”Xyla nodded. “Sure, but please put me down. You’re not feeling well recently, are you?”“Nah, that’s not true,” Stanley rebuked. “Your body should be frail when anemia kicks in.”“Do you think I’m weak?”“... Anyway, you should take care of yourself…” Xyla reminded him. “There is no need,” Stanley insisted.***The next day.At the Quest family’s house.Emily Quest and May Conner were observing Xyla’s house with binoculars from the rooftop. Xyla’s red Maserati and Stanley’s black Bentley Arnage were both in their line of sight. “Apparently, that blockhead went back last nig

Xyla Quest logged onto her QQ Mailbox and clicked on the anonymous email. Her fingers danced across the keyboard, trying to track its IP address. She found the IP address in the very next second. However, it was located in the middle of the sea. She knew that it was a fake IP address. Without wasting any more time on it, she kept on typing to crack the code, going the extra mile to search for the real IP address. After going through series after series of codes, Xyla finally found the email’s actual IP address. It was from a neighborhood downtown called Fishy Hollow. Block 12, room 706, opposite Fishy Hollow Internet Cafe. Xyla raised her brows satisfactorily before shutting down her laptop. She then got out of the bed and headed to the bathroom. She started retching again when she brushed her teeth, throbbing pain in her stomach following soon after. However, she did not take it seriously. She thought she was too hungry. After a quick wash, she put on some skincar

“Are you sure?” Stanley Batton’s eyes widened, consternated. Dragon Group had many top IT specialists, but none managed to find the IP address yet. How did she crack the code so easily?“Yeah. Ask Zack Cassidy to check the place out,” Xyla Quest said again. Stanley did not say another word and called Zack right away.After hanging up the phone, Stanley turned to Xyla and asked, “Is there anything that you can’t do?” “Probably nothing. Your girl is good at everything.” A calm expression was etched upon Ron Batton’s face. “You have no idea how talented she is in computer hacking. She has defeated that… what top hacker… Who is it again?” “Enough, Grandpa. Let’s not brag about that.” Xyla smiled embarrassedly. “What?” Stanley pursued. “You know who’s Kimi, right? He’s the most notable hacker today,” Ron asked. “Yes.” Of course, he knew who Kimi was. That guy was the world’s top hacker. No one could ever defeat him. He was currently working with Country M’s national cybers

It seemed like there was no way Xyla Quest’s younger sister could ever be honest.In the end, Xyla and Emily Quest would still fight with each other.“What do you plan to do now?” Stanley Batton looked at Xyla and asked.“Let’s not do anything for now…” Xyla said.Stanley didn’t ask further. “Understood. We’ll retain the evidence and gain control of Red Sea. Let’s not frighten our enemy for now…” He said into the phone.“Yes!” Zack Cassidy replied.After hanging up the phone, Stanley looked at Xyla curiously. “Tell me. What do you have in mind this time?”“It would be boring to ask her to come here and make her admit her fault. Since she wants to play, we’ll make it a big deal… Doesn’t she want to watch us get divorced? We’ll lead her on a little…” Xyla said.“I vaguely recall that May Conner will be throwing a party in the Quest family. If Emily falls for the trap and falsely believes that we are getting a divorce, she might invite me over…” Xyla trailed off.She didn’t want

May Conner seemed overjoyed. “In that case, I must invite more people over to witness Xyla’s downfall…”Emily chuckled coldly. “Of course, you should. She used to take up all the spotlight. Now, she’s going to fall off her pedestal. She deserves to be downtrodden. I want the whole world to know that Xyla Quest is done for! Hahahahaha!” Emily said.By the end of her sentence, she was laughing almost like a mad person…May couldn’t stop smiling either.“Sometimes, justice prevails for me, Emily Quest, too,” Emily said.“That’s for sure. The tides will always change. Nobody can be the winner forever. Emily, from now on, we can bully Xyla all we want without exposing ourselves,” May said.Emily gritted her teeth. “Hahaha! Of course, we can. Sooner or later, I will take everything back from Xyla! In fact, I’ll kill her with my own hands,” Emily said.After that, Emily clenched her fists tightly. “Dear mother, you know a lot of respectable people. Make sure you invite all of them over

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.

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. 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.
