Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1602

Annabeth Cates shook her head before removing Josh Batton's hand from her back. She immediately shook her head. "No... I'm fine. I feel better now... Don't mind me, Josh..." she said. Right then, Annabeth felt as if her heart was getting heavier and heavier.

What would she do if she really ended up being pregnant?

Would she tell Josh about it when the time came?

No...

She absolutely couldn't tell him.

Based on his personality, he'd take up responsibility toward her if he found out.

Josh would be forced to stay with someone he didn't love for the rest of his life.

Apart from that, if Josh were exposed for having a child with his assistant at the prime of his career, his career would certainly be affected...

Josh would be even unhappier then.

Annabeth didn't want to be selfish by making Josh unhappy.

Josh deserved to spend the rest of his life in joy and harmony... After thinking about it for a while, Annabeth made up her mind.

If she really became pregnant, she would definitely get an abortion.

This was the best outcome for both herself and Josh.

What happened between them that day was an accident, to begin with.

She couldn't allow that accident to develop into anything further.

Sensing that Annabeth kept getting distracted, Josh subconsciously felt that she was still in physical discomfort.

Josh immediately cocked his head and moved closer to her face. "Are you sure you're fine? Why don't we go to the hospital first?" He looked at her curiously.

Annabeth shook her head again. "I'm honestly fine... Don't worry."

"Are you sure?" Josh asked again.

Annabeth nodded repeatedly...

"Since you're fine, what were you thinking about? Why did you have that expression on your face?" Josh asked.

"I wasn't thinking about anything in particular. I... I was just wondering if I should cook something for you tonight. You've been so exhausted lately... Oh, right. This was what I was thinking about...

"I struggled to choose between bird's nest or braised abalone with ginseng..." Annabeth explained as if she was completely fine.

When Josh heard this, he didn't overthink it. Instead, he nodded gently.

"You really are okay, aren't you? If you're not, don't hide it... Alright?" Josh asked again.

Annabeth chuckled. "I know..."

His concern filled her heart with warmth.

Annabeth believed that any girl who ended up with this gentle person in the future would indeed be fortunate.

While the two of them spoke, their car arrived at the airport with three other Benz-Mercedes security cars... The bodyguards got out of the cars first...

Immediately after that, Josh and Annabeth also got out of their car.

Under the bodyguards' protection, the two of them walked into the airport lobby...

Right then, fans who got wind of Josh's itinerary were already waiting eagerly for him inside the airport...

Many floors of the large airport were crowded with fans who came to send Josh off.

When the fans saw their idol was here, they immediately started screaming wildly.

Immediately after that, everyone ran over to Josh like mad people. Then, they surrounded Josh and Annabeth.

The bodyguards' work instantly became extra difficult.

A few bodyguards did their best to form a human wall around Josh, blocking the fans who frantically tried to get close to him.
