Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

Though Xyla Quest knew that Stanley Batton was a liar who could not be trusted at all, her heart softened right away as she looked at him. The exhaustion on his face was real, and so were the red veins in his eyes.

"First of all, I apologize for lying to you. Let me introduce myself first. I'm Stanley Batton, and the Dragon Group belongs to my family."

"I'm the fifth born in my family. Besides, I'm the President, as well as the heir, of the domestic Dragon Group." He recounted, the seriousness in his tone retained with each word he spoke.

The husband who she agreed to marry that time was such a remarkably successful person in real life?

As for her master, he was related to Dragon Group too? Ron Batton?
