“Josh… Did you intentionally leave the film crew behind that day and rushed back because of… Me?” Xyla Quest asked carefully.Josh Batton did think that Xyla might come and ask him, but he didn’t think she’d ask so directly…Josh instantly cocked his right brow. “No…” He answered without hesitation.When Xyla heard this, she felt greatly relieved. “Is that so?”“I don’t like you anymore… You don’t need to feel any pressure…” Josh said.Josh had prepared this speech long ago…Having feelings for Xyla was his issue.He didn’t want his feelings for her to cause Xyla any emotional burden.“Really? In that case, why did you hurry back that day?” Xyla asked.“That’s because I suddenly remembered something important… Don’t misunderstand… It really wasn’t because of you… I only went to see you because it was actually on the way…” Josh laughed bitterly.When Xyla heard this on the other end of the call, she immediately let out a long sigh…Josh had answered in a very clear-cut manner
Based on how well Josh Batton knew his mother, his mother would definitely ask him about that woman with much excitement. Perhaps, she might even buy lots of gifts for that woman…By then, Josh would be annoyed…After saying that, Josh weakly leaned against the wall and closed his eyes depressedly. He let out a long sigh…“Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone…” Xyla Quest decisively snapped her fingers.“In that case, I’ll get back to work…” With that, Josh hung up. He laughed bitterly and helplessly for a while as he looked through the window full of raindrops at the blurry world outside. He had a conflicted look in his eyes…After standing still for a long while, Josh finally put his phone in his pocket and returned to the photography studio…Once his styling was done, he started shooting for a magazine cover.After the shooting was completed, Josh brought his assistant, Annabeth Cates, and a large group of security guards grandly out of the magazine company…By then, the rain ha
Now that this topic was brought up, everyone felt jealous on the inside.Although Josh Batton still hadn’t announced who he liked, there wasn’t any news about his love life, and they were also very sure their idol didn’t have a girlfriend. So they couldn’t help but feel jealous about the woman whom their idol would fall in love with.“If Josh announced that he’s in a relationship, would you stop being his fan?” A girl suddenly asked carefully in the group.“Nonsense, of course… I wouldn’t! I’ll choose to wish them a happy life together with tears in my eyes…”“I will never be able to get out of this pit in this lifetime. So who else would we become a fan of? Is there anyone better-looking than Josh in the entertainment industry?”“Sob sob. Me too. Josh is so gentle. His future girlfriend is going to be so lucky.”“Not only am I jealous of his future girlfriend, but I’m also jealous of his future daughter. Sob sob…”The fans were getting more jealous as they spoke.When Josh’s b
“Josh, what can I do for you?” Annabeth Cates looked at Josh Batton earnestly. She seemed very careful.“What’s my next appointment?” Josh asked.“Next, we’re going to City K to shoot for S Magazine’s cover and a few pages within…” Annabeth said seriously.“Okay.” With that, Josh slowly closed his eyes and didn’t say anything else.The song ‘As Friends’ was still playing on repeat on his earphones.Annabeth knew that he was exhausted now. Hence, she didn’t say anything further.Even without saying anything, Josh still glowed by just silently listening to music with his eyes closed.“We’ll probably be working until very late today. You’ll still be very busy tomorrow. Perhaps, you might only get three hours of sleep tonight. You should rest some more during the ride,” Annabeth reminded earnestly.“Understood,” Josh said indifferently without opening his eyes.Approximately an hour later, Josh and Annabeth arrived at Atlantis International Airport with a group of bodyguards.In
Which top-notch celebrity in the entire entertainment industry would treat his assistant like this?There was none…The female fans at the scene all went crazy when they saw this…“Ahh… How could this happen? Is she the assistant, or is Josh the assistant?”“Josh… Please remember your identity. You’re a top-notch celebrity, not her assistant!”“Ahh… I’m jealous. If Josh does this for me even once, I’d be willing to die for him!”When Annabeth Cates heard what everyone said, she instantly moved closer to Josh Batton’s ear. “Josh… Your fans are objecting. Hurry up and let go of me…” She said softly.However, Josh acted as if he didn’t hear her…Annabeth struggled to move away, but it was to no avail.If looks could kill, Annabeth thought she would perhaps already be dead now…About an hour later, Josh and Annabeth finally made it into the first-class lounge with much difficulty.Only then did their world finally settle down into quiet.They were the only two people in the lou
In fact, Annabeth Cates felt that it was blasphemous of her even to have such thoughts.The woman who would be with Josh Batton in the future would surely be someone of the same stature with a fair complexion, a wealthy background, and great beauty.It wouldn’t be someone like her…Besides, Annabeth could feel that Josh liked Xyla Quest from the bottom of his heart…Josh treated Xyla differently from how he treated others…Apart from that, Annabeth accidentally saw that Josh saved many of Xyla’s photos on his phone previously.Thinking about Xyla made Annabeth feel even more self-abased.When Annabeth opened Weibo, she saw that the number one hot topic had changed again.Right then, the number one hot topic had become ‘#Josh Batton protects his assistant at the airport# Explosive’.Annabeth had guessed that scene would end up on the list of hot topics, but she didn’t think it’d happen so soon.After opening the hot topic, Annabeth saw various pictures of the instant Josh prot
Noticing how Annabeth Cates seemed to be lost in a daydream, a curious look appeared in Josh Batton’s eyes. “What are you thinking about?”Annabeth chuckled. “Nothing much…”“Are you feeling alright?” Josh asked.“Of course…” Annabeth’s smile broadened.“That’s good…” Josh said.He didn’t say anything else. Instead, after putting his phone down, he casually picked up an envelope from the pile of similar envelopes nearby and started reading intently.***At the same time, in the office of X Entertainment’s CEO…Georgie Clementine was carefully going through documents…She had gotten a new haircut.Her long, black hair was now curled up and split in a three-to-seven ratio…The tip of her hair only reached her earlobes. It made her look prim and proper.Her white body-hugging shirt matching her peach-colored, high-waist pants, and the contrast made her physique extremely attractive.The intricate makeup on her face also made her facial features appear beautiful.Buried in wo
As soon as Georgie Clementine walked in, she saw a woman wearing a black Hermes dress among the crowd.The woman also wore a black Hermes hat. She had light, intricate makeup on her face, and she wore antique, pink, diamond jewelry worth up to a hundred million dollars. Her entire body seemed to glow with beauty and nobility.The woman seemed very young…Georgie highly suspected that this was Henry Armstrong’s mother. That was because the way she dressed made her look exactly like a wealthy housewife.However, Georgie couldn’t be too sure.After all, this person seemed too young. She was probably in her forties at most…Henry told Georgie himself that his mother was in her fifties.However, plenty of rich people looked after themselves well and seemed to be in their forties despite being in their fifties.As Georgie pondered, the woman in Hermes waved at her.She waved downward, and her expression was icy. There was an aloofness about her that made it seem as if she was summon
