Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 10
“That’s right… Dad, look, this is the list of top achievers in our class. That’s me.” After that, Xyla Quest scrolled through the pictures of her results one at a time, showing them to Jeremy Quest.She came first on nearly every single list!Jeremy was pleasantly surprised. Although Xyla did rather well in high school, she was definitely not talented enough to get into a university like this.However, after leaving home, she had gotten into this university, she was even the best performing student.“My baby girl, you are outstanding!” Jeremy could not hide the pride in his smile.Now, all Jeremy could think about was Xyla’s excellent performance in academics. Clearly, he had forgotten all about Emily Quest being in the top fifty in her stream.The feeling of being ignored and outshone made Emily feel very miserable.Although Atlantis University was a famous university within the country, it was not worth mentioning compared to Summerland University.Emily gritted her teeth. “What’s so

“She’s stepping into her own grave in such a hurry.” Xyla Quest chuckled before replying to the email.“I’m very interested.” She wrote.Emily Quest responded almost instantly. “Really? Can you give me your contact number? Let’s discuss this over a call.”Xyla smiled before sending Georgie Clementine’s phone number to Emily.After a second, Emily’s call came in.Seeing this, Xyla immediately picked up the phone and excused herself from the room. “Hello, how are you…” She said while leaning lazily against the wall.Xyla intentionally changed her voice so that she sounded completely different.“Hello, are you Josh Batton’s manager, Georgie Clementine?”“Yes, I’m very interested in what you mentioned. However, I think that thirty million dollars is not enough…” Xyla said while twirling her hair with her fingers.“What about thirty-five million dollars?”“But most of our deals are at least forty million dollars these days,” Xyla replied.“Well… Well then, let’s make it forty million dollar
Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 12
However, nobody picked up Emily Quest’s call.After several attempts, the phone had actually been turned off!Emily felt as if she was going mad.Why did Josh Batton choose ten million dollars over forty million dollars? Did he have something against money?Or did he have feelings for Xyla Quest? When Emily thought of this, she instantly became jealous, and her face darkened. However, Emily very quickly rejected that thought. Why would a man like him fall for Xyla Quest? There were plenty of other beautiful women in the entertainment industry.“What the hell is going on?!” Emily mumbled to herself with her fists clenched.Meanwhile, Josh Batton’s fans were viciously attacking Emily on Weibo. It was driving her insane!If she knew this was going to happen, she would not have shown off so proudly. When she recalled how she had insulted Xyla the night before, she felt extremely embarrassed.Ring. Ring. Ring.The phone next to her bed started ringing. Emily instantly picked it up.“Get yo

“Ughh! I’m so mad!” Emily Quest grabbed a pillow next to her and hurled it to the ground.After Xyla Quest got changed upstairs, she put on some light make-up before getting into her car and driving to X Entertainment.X Entertainment’s office was located in the most developed area in the city center of Atlantis.From the outside, the tall building appeared both fashionable and artistic.Since the walls were made fully of glass, it was nearly transparent from the inside out.With a total of sixteen floors, there were twelve floors above the ground and four floors under.All of X Entertainment’s artists and trainees had their practices and recordings done in this building.After Xyla got out of her car, she quickly entered the tall building.Dressed in a light blue professional outfit, coupled with a white T-shirt and white heels, she seemed both dainty and experienced.Using her personal elevator, Xyla rode to the president’s office directly.As soon as she sat down, Georgie Clementine

The man seemed to be illuminated by a bright light. Wherever he was, the light would follow him.While the bright light followed him, everyone else around him faded in the background.Dressed in a leisurely black shirt and long black pants, he had on a pair of casual black shoes. Moreover, his collar was slightly rolled up with three buttons open in front of his chest. He looked both lazy and sexy.Despite being surrounded by a group of beautiful women, he seemed to be completely disinterested.Like a star in the sky, he was bright and attractive but unattainable by the ordinary person.At first, Xyla thought that she would never see this man again. However, she bumped into him today yet again.Were the people around him gangsters as well?Was this a meeting among gangsters?Did people who worked in that field dress so well these days?Although Xyla thought of leaving, she felt that she did not do anything wrong to him. Why should she leave?As the thought occurred to her, Xyla immedia
Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 15
At that moment, Xyla Quest no longer looked like the gentle fairy she seemed to be. There was a sudden coldness about how she looked.“Who do you think you are?!” Xyla asked as she pointed the half-broken bottle at the man.“You guys are dead! Boys, let’s go!” The group of gangsters took out their knives and began walking forward.After Xyla calmly turned around to exchange glances with Georgie Clementine, she began to fight back with the martial arts skills she had learned over the years when she was abroad.Closely after that, Georgie picked up a bottle of beer and joined her in the fight.They managed to take down two of the gangsters within half a minute with their swift and clean movements.Apart from Stanley Batton, everyone else at his table was shocked…Henry rubbed his eyes before stammering, “Why are our sister-in-law and her friend so brave?”Sebastian Brenand gulped. “They are ferocious, but I like it!”Without saying a word, Stanley glanced coldly at a group of bodyguards
Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 16
Sebastian Brenand took in a deep breath. “It was only meant as a joke. How could that have happened?”Henry rolled his eyes at Sebastian. “Pray for your own well-being.”When Xyla Quest leaned her face against his solid and broad chest, she could feel his prominent heartbeat.Xyla took in a deep breath. “About that… Actually, I can walk on my own with a little help…” She sounded a little embarrassed.However, the man continued to walk outside without saying a word.Since they were a good-looking pair, everyone turned their heads to look at them when they walked past.After they made it outside, Xyla looked at the man’s hardened face. “Don’t you still have unrecovered wounds? Are you sure it’s okay to hold me like this? Why don’t you put me down?”From what she recalled, he was injured only a few days ago. In fact, he was in a pretty bad shape then.Wouldn’t his wounds be affected if he held her like this?“Where is your car?” The man asked as if he had not heard what she said earlier.
Revenge of the Hideous Lady Chapter 17
Xyla Quest’s heart clenched. Her first thought was that Stanley’s wound had reopened.She immediately turned on the lights in the car and looked at the man’s body.Upon closer inspection, she discovered that a large part of his black shirt was damp.“Your wound has reopened.” Xyla seemed nervous.Although she could not see the wound, she could imagine how bad it must have hurt.However, Stanley merely glanced down at his shirt calmly. “It’s fine.”From the look on his face, it felt as if he was not even injured.“Is this still fine?”“It’s a minor injury. I won’t die from it.” He remained nonchalant as he looked forward and continued to turn the steering wheel.“If you don’t tend to a minor injury, your wound may become infected, and you might die,” Xyla added.Since this only happened because of her, Xyla could not ignore it.“Let’s go back to the hospital,” she said.“I’ll send you home first.”“I hate the hospital. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, I don’t like going there,” Stanley

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.
