Georgie Clemetine’s words left Suzie Cobold feeling dumbfounded.Suzie remained silent for a few seconds before trying to speak again. “I know I was wrong. I really get it now. Please, I’m begging you. Let me go. Tell the company and those artists not to make me pay them money.“Now, my reputation is ruined, and I can’t possibly work in the entertainment industry anymore… Without my reputation, I can’t afford not to have money. If I don’t have money, how am I supposed to live?” By the end of her speech, Suzie started crying at the top of her lungs.Georgie calmly closed the lid of her face mask container. After that, she washed her hands and pulled her hair back into a half-bun. “If you knew this was going to happen, why did you do all those things?”Georgie didn’t feel affected by Suzie’s pleas at all.After all, she was no saint. She wouldn’t forget what her enemies did to her just because they begged and cried to her.“Ms. Georgie, as long as you forgive, I’ll do anything you
“Mr. Brown will surely reap what he sowed,” Georgie Clementine said.Xyla Quest sneered. “If things go as I expect, Suzie will come looking for you within two days…”“That’s without a doubt. Well, I shan’t bother you anymore. I’ll put on my makeup and get to work,” Georgie said.“Okay,” Xyla said.After hanging up, Xyla sat up. She blushed as she looked at the handsome man beside her who was smoking. “Sorry about that…”Stanley Batton took a long puff at his cigarette before exhaling slowly. He gently rubbed her head. “It’s fine. We can continue after you’re done with work…”With that, Stanley picked up his phone and opened Weibo’s list of trending topics. He began slowly reading through it without any emotion in his eyes.Embarrassed, Xyla started to blush, and her heartbeat went wild again.She instantly took a deep breath and opened Weibo’s list of trending topics.The spectacular scene that came into sight put a pretty smile on Xyla’s face…She immediately opened each top
Georgie Clementine was speechless.“I’ll be waiting for you… I’m now at Clear Blue Sky Villa, Block One, in Peace Park, Gold Coast Beach Resort. I’ll inform the security. You’ll only have to bring your identity card along when you enter the neighborhood,” Henry Armstrong said.Soon after that, Henry hung up the phone.Georgie frowned helplessly before picking up the large package with one hand and walking out the door directly.She got into her black Mercedes-Benz and drove to the place Henry mentioned right away.This location had one of the best views of the beach. The entire neighborhood was surrounded by three-story, European-style villas.This neighborhood was only separated from the ocean by a single road. From the entrance, one could see nothing but the clear sea and blue skies.A single glance of this view was enough to make one feel at ease.After showing the security guard her identity card, Georgie slowly drove into the neighborhood.The greenery was very well-lands
When Henry Armstrong heard this, he immediately pinched his forehead and looked at Georgie Clementine seriously. “No… My feelings for you are real, Georgie. Can you give me a chance?” he asked.Henry had never regretted his playful past. However, after meeting this woman in front of him, he started to feel remorseful.If only he had a good reputation, Georgie wouldn’t avoid him like this.Henry thought that perhaps this really was karma.In the past, he was told that whatever debt he owed to someone else, he would, sooner or later, be made to repay it to someone else.Henry never believed in stuff like this before, but now he truly believed so.Perhaps, he had owed other people too much emotionally. That was why he ended up meeting Georgie.Georgie was the one who would make him pay on behalf of everyone else…He had a lot of ways to deal with anyone else. However, with Georgie, he was helpless.There wasn’t a woman in Atlantis who wouldn’t treat Henry with respect and adorati
When Henry Armstrong finally came down, he saw Georgie Clementine sitting on the couch, flipping through a financial magazine.Georgie heard him whistling, and she immediately stood up and turned to look at him. “Let’s go…” She said.With that, she led their way out of the door.Henry quickly followed her with a beaming smile on his face.After stepping outside, Georgie directly got into her black Mercedes-Benz.When Henry saw this, he naturally got into her car from the other side. With one leg crossed over the other, he leisurely put on his seatbelt. “Turn left after the exit, in one hundred meters, head north. You’ll see ‘The Meet Western Restaurant’…” Henry said.Georgie didn’t respond to him. Instead, she sped up.Her other hand rested lazily against her jaw, with her elbow against the glass window.Rays of warm sunlight poured into the car and danced against her face, making her appear pretty and attractive.Seeing her beautiful face from the side made Henry’s heart run
Georgie Clementine coughed awkwardly. “Stop calling me honey, darling, or missus…” “Alright, sweetheart…” Henry Armstrong said.Georgie was rendered speechless.Why did she feel like the names he was calling her were getting more and more disgusting?“Henry, can you stop making me feel disgusted? It’s so cringey…”“If you’re not happy with ‘sweetheart’, what do you want me to call you? Baby? My beloved?” Henry asked.“Will it kill you to call me by my first name?” Georgie asked.“How would that show that you’re special to me?” Henry asked.“Please address me by my first name…” Georgie said with a serious look on her face before walking into the restaurant.The restaurant was decorated in a traditional baroque style, and it seemed very luxurious…The walls were encrusted with gold and diamonds that glimmered brightly.A beautiful woman in a white dress played a melodic piano tune on a high platform in the middle of the restaurant.The atmosphere in the restaurant was extrao
Karen Campbell even deliberately stole Georgie Clementine’s crush, Zayn Tulip, away from Georgie…After getting together with Zayn, Karen always brought Zayn around to show him off in front of Georgie to hurt Georgie’s feelings.Apart from that, Karen even lied to Zayn by saying that Georgie bullied her…As a result, Zayn slapped Georgie twice.One could only imagine how hurtful it was to be slapped by the person she had a crush on.However, Georgie didn’t show any signs of weakness. After being slapped, she beat Zayn up so badly that his mother probably couldn’t recognize him anymore.In fact, she had erased her feelings for Zayn forever.They had brought Georgie nothing but terrible memories. Hence, Georgie didn’t want to acknowledge them…After glancing at them calmly, Georgie continued to walk forward with the waitress.“Hey… Who’s this? Isn’t this Georgie Clementine?” Karen didn’t allow Georgie to leave. She immediately dragged Zayn along and stood in Georgie’s way…Afte
The scene made Karen Campbell’s jaw drop.At this moment, she felt both shocked and terrified…Karen had heard her husband talking about Mr. Armstrong before.She knew that this person was not only extremely powerful in Atlantis, but the entire Country Z.The Tulip family couldn’t afford to offend him!Karen didn’t expect this young aristocrat actually to know Georgie Clementine, and they even had such an intimate relationship.It appeared that Henry Armstrong and Georgie were a couple.All of a sudden, Karen didn’t know what to do anymore. She was thoroughly stunned, and her face turned pale. Her heart was about to leap out of her chest.“In what ways do you think my wife is inferior to you?” Henry asked again.Georgie didn’t say anything. Instead, she allowed Henry to continue holding her.In that split second, she felt moved by Henry.Karen was lost for words, and she didn’t know how to answer the question.Now that Karen knew Georgie was this man’s wife, Georgie was ind
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.
