“If you’re willing, the production team will start filming with you and broadcast the first six episodes of you first.“For your parts, they will film one day and then broadcast the content the next day.“If you agree, the crew will go over to your house to film starting tomorrow for the next six consecutive days. All six episodes will be complete within a week,” Georgie Clementine explained on the ongoing phone call.Annabeth Cates nodded in approval. “Sure, then that’s what we’ll do.”“Okay, great! They’ll start filming at your place each day from seven in the morning until ten in the evening.”“All right, sure,” Annabeth replied and then hung up when they had finished the conversation.Josh Batton had a helpless look in his eyes. “I don’t know what to do with you.”“Honey, we don’t need to make much of an effort. We just have to live as we do. There’s no harm in taking part in a show like this,” she voiced. “Don’t you need a variety show like this to maintain your popularity?
“Where is Ms. Cates?” the director asked when he couldn't see Annabeth Cates around.Josh Batton smiled and carefully picked up Candice Batton from the cradle. “She’s still sleeping, but it’s fine. You can start with us first. My wife just delivered not too long ago and needs her rest.” The director acknowledged with a nod.“Waah… Waah…”Candice suddenly started crying right then, making her father panic.He carefully rocked her in his arms. “What’s the matter, Honey? Hmm? Did you poop?”He placed her back on the cradle to check her diaper, making sure she wasn't soiled before he gently picked her up again. “Oh, I know. You’re hungry, aren’t you?”He handed his daughter over to Sharon Lindt before walking side to prepare a bottle of milk, using his wrist to test the temperature until he was satisfied.He returned to Sharon’s side and carried the crying baby into his arms before sitting on the white wool rug to feed her.He seemed so sure of what to do.Candice stopped crying
The breakfast laid out in the dining room looked sumptuous.The dishes included bird’s nests, a seafood stew, fried dumplings, soy milk, porridge, and many types of appetizers.Annabeth Cates found herself starving when she saw those delicious dishes.Sharon Lindt and Wilson Batton smiled as they watched her reaction, taking turns scooping food onto her plate and filling her bowl with bird’s nests.They did all these carefully as if they were looking after a child, invoking even more feelings of envy among the female crew members.After Josh Batton finished feeding Candice Batton upstairs, he made his way to the dining room and sat next to his wife. He then started eating.He also took good care of Annabeth.“Oh, Josh, we are running low on diapers, so you should go get some more,” Sharon said.“Okay.”“Also, buy some snacks Annabeth likes while you’re at it,” she added.“Okay, I will.”“Don’t buy anything that’ll upset her stomach, got it?” his father asked.He nodded obed
Josh Batton was speechless.“This is Annabeth’s favorite food lately. All six of these dumplings are reserved for her. They are not for you,” Sharon Lindt told him sternly.“I was going to get it for Annabeth. I wasn't planning on eating any,” he sighed.Only after hearing this did Sharon smile in a satisfied manner. “That’s good. I was wondering why you’d be so daft,” she replied, smiling in satisfaction upon hearing that.He remained silent and smiled awkwardly before reaching for one fried dumpling and placing it in front of Annabeth Cates, who seemed uneasy.“That’s not necessary," Annabeth spoke up. "I’m fine with eating just two. Don’t you all like it, too? You should all have some.”“We are fine. You can have it all. You’re the most important person in this family,” Wilson Batton stated, pushing the entire plate of fried dumplings over to her.The more they behaved like this, the more embarrassed she felt.Although it was only a plate of ordinary dumplings, she didn’t wa
“Didn’t you say that you have aches around where the doctor injected anesthetics into your body? Did it ache yesterday?” Sharon Lindt asked.“Yeah, it ached in the middle of the night, but it wasn’t too bad,” Annabeth Cates said with a nod.Ever since she'd received the anesthetics shot, the area of the injection site would frequently twinge with pain.She had tried many ways to make it go away, but nothing worked.The doctor and Xyla Quest had told her that it was a side effect of the shot. It would be difficult to recover quickly, so she would have to let it heal in time.“Did you ask Josh to give you a massage?” Sharon asked.She shook her head. “He was already asleep at the time.”“So what if he’s asleep?" Sharon responded indignantly. "Can’t you wake him up? He’s a man. He can take it.”“I didn’t want him to be too tired because we have a show to film today,” she explained.“There’s nothing wrong with waking him up once or twice. Right now, you are the priority," Sharon e
“Hahaha! Josh looks so weak and helpless. It’s clear where he stands in the family.”“I like the Batton family’s vibe the most.”“I find Josh very patient with his daughter. He’s the best husband in the world. Annabeth seems like she doesn’t need to do anything at home.”“Is her name Candice Batton? I envy this girl the most.”“Who wouldn’t feel envious of Candice? Everyone’s favorite idol is her father, and he’s extremely wealthy too. Candice is practically the main protagonist in a fairy tale.”Netizens were already making all sorts of remarks.Josh Batton showed Annabeth Cates all these comments on his phone as they watched the nannies feed their daughter some milk in the nursery.Annabeth subconsciously smiled when she read the netizens’ comments, agreeing with everything they said.Initially, Josh and the others wouldn’t allow her to take a peek at her phone, but she was dying of curiosity and managed to plead with her husband.She ended up reading all these and more as h
The topic occupied the number one spot on the list of hot topics.Netizens began to discuss in excitement—o “Josh is indeed an A-list celebrity. He’s practically the most popular celebrity in the entertainment industry.”“It feels great to be a fan of a top-notch celebrity. I feel lucky to be his fan.”“I heard Annabeth insisted on accepting the show offer. I want to thank her for that.”“As an observer, I have to say I’ve become Josh's fan after watching this show.”“I’m a sixty-year-old woman who has become a fan of Josh and Annabeth today. Watching them is so heartwarming. I’m going to start following them.”“It’s Josh Batton all right.”Georgie Clementine received multiple calls from various sponsors of maternal and infant products unexpectedly, with many of them fighting for the opportunity to have Josh Batton and Annabeth Cates as their ambassadors.Georgie rejected them all without hesitancy with the excuse that Josh was not accepting jobs at the moment.Even so, the
Annabeth Cates leaned against Josh Batton as she wobbled on her feet, only managing to leave the hotel with his help.As they walked out of the lobby, many fans who had followed them were already waiting outside.The fans were very organized despite the huge crowd.Everyone lined up neatly in rows on both sides of the entrance.Young girls began screaming excitedly when they saw their idols coming out—“Josh! Annabeth! We love you! We hope you’ll become more and more successful.”“Josh, take good care of Annabeth. Annabeth, did you have too much to drink?”“Josh, please start focusing on your career. We’ll be with you every step of the way.”Their fans were getting more deafening as their voices melded together.Josh and Annabeth couldn’t hear them clearly, but they still acknowledged them politely.At that point, the fans became even more excited and started cheering louder.Seeing how crowded it was, Josh didn’t dare linger any longer, so he carefully held Annabeth’s hand
