Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 1634

Annabeth Cates felt deeply touched once again.

Suddenly, tears filled her eyes.

'Josh, you're a very good person. I love you so much...

'Let's be together for the rest of our lives.

'I'll love you forever and never leave you.' Annabeth thought.

"Stay at my house tonight... The paparazzi are bound to replace out where you live and look for you there.

"In fact, some people might even sell that information to fans..." Josh Batton said.

Annabeth nodded. "Alright," she said.

As a safety precaution, Josh didn't return to the house he usually stayed in. Instead, he brought Annabeth to a high-class villa he owned by the beach. The villa had three floors, and it was only a short distance away from the ocean. Annabeth often came here with Josh. Hence, she was no stranger to this place. After entering the villa, Josh switched on the lights...

He then held Annabeth's hand and led her into the living room.

This villa had a minimalistic European style to its design.

Sky blue and white were the primary color schemes in the villa.

It made one feel comfortable...

Annabeth liked it here a lot. She couldn't help but look around a little while.

"I know you like the ocean. What do you think about us staying here after we get married?" Josh asked.

Annabeth nodded happily. "Sure," she said.

Josh chuckled. He then led Annabeth up to the second floor and into the master bedroom.

"Go inside and get cleaned up for bed. Then, you can use my clothes and stuff for the night. I'll get someone to bring you the things you need tomorrow..." Josh said. When Josh spoke, his voice was gentle. There was also an apparent smile on his face.

"Okay... What about you?" Annabeth asked.

"I'll get cleaned up next door. After that, I'll come back..." Josh replied.

When Annabeth heard that Josh was returning, she panicked...

Did this mean they were going to sleep in the same bed?

"Am I sleeping here too?" Annabeth subconsciously gasped.

"Where else would you sleep? You'll become my wife soon. Is there any reason for us to sleep in separate beds?" Josh asked.

Annabeth blushed and shook her head...

Seeing how red her face had become, Josh felt cheerful...

With a smile on his face, he went to the room next door.

Excited, Annabeth walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower.

Once she was done, she changed into Josh's white shirt and lay down on the bed.

Soon, Josh returned. He got into bed and sat down next to her.

After placing their phones on the nightstand, Josh slowly switched off the lights and lay down, too.

As soon as he did so, Annabeth's heart started racing uncontrollably.

She was blushing again.

Josh couldn't see Annabeth's face clearly in the dark room.

"Let's sleep... Goodnight," Josh said.

Annabeth nodded.

Although they slept in the same bed, neither of them moved much.

Annabeth tossed and turned for a long while, and she still couldn't fall asleep.

In the end, she gave up and reached for her phone on the nightstand. She then logged in to Weibo.
