May was seething. She turned to look at the bald inmate who had hit her. “What are you doing?” “I’m hitting you, what else? You’re imprisoned here, but you’re still thinking of bullying others once you get out. You’re obviously a vile person.” May wanted to retort, ‘Are you any better?’ However, she managed to endure it as she turned away quietly to continue with her work. “I’ve heard about you two. One is Xyla Quest’s wretched stepmother; the other is her wretched half-sister. “News about your family issues have even made it to us. Everyone says that both of you are the mastermind behind the rumor of Imperial Prime having defects. “Bunch of dogsh*ts, not only are you unwilling to repent, but you’re even trying to harm others!” As she spoke, the bald inmate rolled up her sleeve and stood up, glaring ferociously at the mother-daughter pair as if she wanted to kill them. “Why do you care about our family issues? Are you perhaps acquainted with Xyla Quest?” Emily felt her
Emily nodded. “I think so. I can’t move it!” “Get to work! You have to work even if your bones break!” the bald inmate spoke coldly again. She despised people who bullied the weak. Once upon a time, she was forcefully taken by her factory manager again and again because she was weak. To keep her job, she stayed quiet the whole time. And because she was easy to bully, the man got worse and even forcefully took her in front of her own daughter. Her daughter went up to hit the man, but he pushed the child away. The child’s head hit the door handle, and she ended up dying on the spot. Because of this, she could not resist killing that son of a b*tch. She hated trash who liked to bully others! “Hurry up!!!” the bald inmate roared again. Having just suffered damage, Emily dared not fight back. She obediently returned to her seat. She had just sat down when she felt something stab deeply into her right butt cheek. The severe pain immediately made her turn pale! “Ahh!!” S
In the evening, the setting sun dyed Atlantis gold. The sun set and the world was cold once again. X Entertainment’s building was dazzling brightly in the sunset. Inside the warm office, after Xyla had finished her work today, she once again reserved a private room at With-you Western Restaurant and then informed Five Batton through WeChat. Next, she simply touched up her makeup and let her hair down. The gentle large black curls paired with a natural makeup made her look like a goddess. Her clean white shirt, paired with light blue cropped pants, and a light blue woolen coat, accentuated her divine temperament. The pair of silver strappy heels on her feet highlighted her fair legs and slender ankles. *** On the other side, inside the wine cellar of the three-story Garden Mansion, Stanley, Henry, Sebastian, and Gary were perched in front of a rosewood counter. Each man had a glass of rich red wine in front of them. The wine cellar behind them was about two hundred s
He had seen too many women who proactively court men who drove luxurious cars. Stunned by his aura, the flirtatious smile on the beautiful woman’s face froze. However, she was reluctant to give up. Such a wealthy and magnificent man was every girl’s dream! If she could capture his heart, she would be set for the rest of her life. “Don’t be that way, Handsome, give me a hand,” the beauty said coquettishly. He remained apathetic. Without another word, he quietly took out a pair of white medical gloves from the dashboard, got out swiftly, pulled the passenger car door open, and pulled the woman out. After that, he removed the gloves and tossed them into the trash can together with the antibacterial wipe. Everything was done swiftly. Subsequently, he turned to leave. The beauty was exasperated as she kept stomping her feet. “What gives? Am I, Fanny Mitchell, poisonous? Why do you have to wear gloves to touch me? What a weirdo!” Having said that, she rolled her eyes. Sta
The dining table was covered with a snow-white silk cloth. Several stalks of white roses were displayed in the center of the table. Pure white tassels hung at the ends of the tablecloth, showing luxury in simplicity. Under the illumination of the magnificent chandelier, everything seemed perfect. The strong fragrance of roses in the air calmed one’s spirits. After placing their orders, both individuals removed their coats and hung them at the back of their chairs, leaving only their shirts. Both were dressed in white. They felt more like a couple now. “Have you memorized what I taught you yesterday? Have you forgotten them?” Xyla initiated the conversation. “Yeah,” he replied faintly, toying with a black mirror finish lighter in one hand. His fingers were extremely nimble. No matter how he toyed with it, the lighter never fell. Since he had exceptionally slender and charming fingers, his playing with the lighter attracted more attention. It was a seemingly ordinary ligh
‘Ooh, then don’t come over. I’m suddenly not bored, and I don’t need anyone’s company.’ After that, the other party sent an emoji of a girl laughing hysterically. *** At nine pm. Right on the dot, Xyla led Stanley into Atlantis City’s shopping haven, Goldfield Plaza. Even at this hour, the mall was packed with people, making it extremely lively. However, no matter how huge the crowd was, they were still the most striking existences among the others. Like two dazzling diamonds, they caught everyone’s eye. When the two reached the entrance, a middle-aged man dressed in a suit and had a name tag that read ‘General Manager’, hurried over to them. On the top left corner of the words ‘General Manager’, was Goldfield Plaza’s logo. When the man saw Stanley, he was about to bow in greeting. Instead, Stanley shook his head subtly. The man immediately understood and stopped. He took in a deep breath and then walked past Stanley. Xyla noticed none of this. Her eyes darted o
Next, Stanley tried out another two sets of outfits. Each set on him made him look like a poster model. The sales attendants’ praises never stopped while the male customers simply bought the same design he was wearing after seeing him try it out. Soon, it was down to the last set. Stanley swiftly changed and came out of the dressing room. The last set was a dark blue suit paired with a white inner shirt and cropped pants that showed his ankles. The fitted cutting showcased his perfect proportions distinctly, elongating his legs. “This set is nice too!” Xyla was stunned. This set was perhaps the best one out of the ones he had tried. “Is that so? Do you like this set then?” He strode over to her and asked. “This set… I actually like the others as well.” Xyla was mildly troubled. After pondering for a few seconds, she waved at the sales attendant. “I want all of them.” After that, she turned to him and said, “Wear this on the day of the wedding. You can wear the other
“I’m curious about the person who did such a deed without leaving his name as well. To be able to get our general manager’s personal help, he must be a prominent figure!” “No matter who is it, I’m super envious of that woman.” *** Meanwhile, in the Sullivan family’s living room. “Honey, Tom, Emily is still pregnant with our grandchild. Are we really going to keep ignoring her? What if something happens to the child?” Bailey looked worriedly at Tom sitting beside her and at Tony sitting on the single sofa as she spoke. “I’ve already inquired. She’s doing well there. And she’s coming out the day before the wedding, isn’t she? It’s only a few days, so there’s no need to care about her specifically. It’d be good for her to learn a lesson as well.” “And can’t you see what she’s done? To achieve her own goals, she had endangered her family’s business. What about the future? What if she endangers our family in the future?” Tom was irked. “Tom is right. It’ll be good for her to
