Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest)
Chapter 2138

Annabeth Cates started reading through each Weibo post, feeling a little overwhelmed by the number of contents.

She read about how celebrities cheated on or broke up with their partners.

One woman had up to six different boyfriends, while another man had more than six girlfriends.

It all seemed very exciting, but she began to feel uncomfortable and couldn't take it anymore at some point.

By then, Josh Batton had finished cleaning up the kitchen, so he walked over to sit next to Annabeth.

Seeing her staring at her phone, he immediately set it aside. "You'll strain your eyes if you keep staring at the phone. What were you looking at?"

Taking a deep breath, she slowly processed what she'd seen before turning to look at Josh. "I was reading some gossip on Weibo. Are people in the entertainment industry all so promiscuous? They can have multiple partners at the same time."

Although she had seen a lot of unusual stuff in the entertainment industry, she still couldn't help but criticize such behavior.

"I've seen what you mentioned before. It does seem quite ridiculous," he answered.

"If I'm not mistaken, that woman who cheated on her boyfriend used to go after you, didn't she?"

Josh felt chills down his spine at the thought. He pinched his forehead helplessly. “Yeah.”

"It's so messed up," Annabeth sighed and he agreed.

"Yeah."

The more she discovered about the dirty side of the entertainment industry, the more she felt that the man next to her was a real treasure.

Despite working in such an environment, he was never influenced by it and remained pure as he had always been.

His fans were lucky because they'd never have to worry about him being involved in scandals. Those unbelievably disgusting gossip would never have anything to do with him.

News related to Josh would always be about him doing charitable deeds, winning awards in acting and singing, and sharing his personal life.

Annabeth felt lucky to have met someone as indescribably good as her husband.

"Darling?" he said hesitantly.

"Hmm?"

"Let's make a promise. If you fall out of love with me one day, you must tell me directly. We must neverdet anything like that happen to us, okay?" Josh asked.

She nodded. "I will never stop loving you. I should be the one saying this to you."

"I won't ever stop loving you, either. Anyway, no matter what happens, we must always stay loyal to each other, all right?"

His tone was soft, with a unique, charming quality to it.

"Okay," she nodded obediently. "We'll always be loyal to each other. I know we'll always be in love. Isn't that so?"

"Yeah. Oh, right. My parents wanted to visit you tonight," he told her lovingly.

Annabeth was excited to hear this. "Isn't your mother busy looking after the children? Why is she still making time to come see me?" "She said she has to treat both daughters-in-law equally. She can't neglect you because of Xyla, Lynette, and Leon," he explained.

She felt even more touched and

honestly didn't mind at all. She

wouldn't feel neglected even if

Sharon Lindt didn't visit her because

Sharon

she knew how much she cared about her.

"I invited them to stay for dinner, and they said yes. I'll have to head

I'll cook

buy some groceries. Overto

something nice for them,"

said.

"Okay, we'll cook something nice," she said, nodding. "I'll help if you can't handle it on your own."

Right then, his phone started ringing.
