Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2010

"Ahh! Josh, I like you!"

"Josh, you're so handsome! How are you so good-looking?"

"Get out of the way, all of you! Don't block my line of sight. Don't stop me from looking at the most handsome man on earth!"

Josh Batton's fans were all wild, making him feel bothered by what was happening in front of him even though he had gotten used to it since he had encountered such situations numerous times before. Even his wife, Annabeth Cates, who was in the passenger's seat, felt the same way.

Josh pinched his forehead helplessly before honking at the crowd.

However, it didn't help.

Shaking his head helplessly, he then called Georgie Clementine on the phone and told her what was happening before hanging up to wait for help to arrive.

Outside, his fans were still acting crazily, even blocking the road for others.

Many people were complaining about it, but Josh had no other option aside from waiting in the car.

If he stepped outside or opened a window, the consequences would be dire.

"Josh! Josh, we'll always support you."

"Josh! Josh, please look at me."

"Ahh! Josh is the most handsome guy in the entertainment industry. That statement can't be challenged."

"Josh, don't worry. Your fans will always be there for you."

They were still screaming, their voices deafening.

Annabeth calmly held his hand. "It's fine, they'll be gone after a while. Don't panic."

Josh nodded slightly.

Approximately half an hour later, help arrived when Georgie sent over a hundred bodyguards to force the crowd back, creating a pathway for their car so that Josh could make his escape.

Once they had driven out of the hospital, Annabeth felt like the entire world had lit up and was less suffocating.

She released a long sigh of relief and peered at her husband. "You're way too popular. That's a lot of pressure."

Josh smiled affectionately before ruffling her hair gently. "Don't feel pressured. No matter how many people like me, you're the only one for me."

She smiled silently, feeling absurdly happy.

"Oh, right. Come with me to an

interview tomorrow evening. It'll only take an hour. The host has been very supportive of me since I first started. It's not nice of me to turn him down," Josh told her.

"Okay. What show is it?"

Ret

"It's called 'Celebrity Hangout' by Lychee Terrace. The host, Brandon Collier, specifically invited you and me to participate in it. The taping was supposed to be in the city they are based in, but I told them you're pregnant, and it would be challenging for us to be there. I requested it to be held in Atlantis, and they have agreed.

"I suggested doing it at an exclusive restaurant so we can eat and talk at the same time. They've agreed to it, too. Think of it as a meal," Josh added. Annabeth nodded in agreement.

As long as it was good for Josh's career, she'd do her best to support it.
