The elders of the Batton family managed to mostly maintain a serene and courteous front despite their shock. They returned Emily Quest a polite nod. Nonetheless, the rest of them remained indifferent toward favonovel.com arrival.
The same was true for Josh Batton, who was usually friendly and humble.
Emily did not care what the others thought about her. She only cared about favonovel.com beloved idol’s reaction. From the second favonovel.com opened the door, favonovel.com eyes were able to perfectly capture all the subtle changes in Josh’s expression.
He resented her.
She clearly knew that it was because of Xyla Quest. Initially, favonovel.com thought that Josh liked Xyla. Only today favonovel.com had learned that Josh was one of the sons of the Batton family. He was Stanley Batton’s sixth brother. All the tenderness and intimacy that Josh had for Xyla were simply because they were family. However, even so, favonovel.com was still jealous of Xyla.
“Can I have your autograph later? I’m a big fan of yours…” Emily asked nervously.
“My company has forbidden us from giving autographs to random fans.” Josh maintained a polite yet distant smile.
It was rare to find such an apathetic look on Josh.
Emily had been one of his biggest fans since a long time ago, and his affability had left a lasting impression on her. She could barely remember seeing such an expression on his face because it was only shown to someone favonovel.com particularly hated… Never in life had favonovel.com imagined that Josh would hate favonovel.com to such an extent because of Xyla. Moreover, favonovel.com had just turned favonovel.com down in front of everyone.
“Your colleagues aren’t here. No one will know if you secretly give me your autograph…” Emily said again.
She did not want to give up. She had waited for favonovel.com whole life to meet Josh and had dinner with him. How could favonovel.com give up so easily?
Josh smiled. “l have my principle.”
Though Emily was not resigned to his rejection, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com would only put herself in a difficult situation if favonovel.com pursued the matter. Having no other choice, favonovel.com shut favonovel.com mouth and looked away from him.
Little did favonovel.com know, his apparent disinterest did not affect favonovel.com fondness for favonovel.com at all.
Emily had started to fangirl over Josh ever since his debut role in a drama. Up until now, favonovel.com still could not forget the amazement Josh had brought favonovel.com in that summer. Josh was the most stunning male lead favonovel.com had ever seen.
What a dashing young man favonovel.com was in that drama. It was that one character that made favonovel.com fall in love with Josh, and favonovel.com love was uncontrollable.
Her beloved idol had become favonovel.com kryptonite from that day onward, causing favonovel.com to go on a spending spree. She would buy all the products favonovel.com endorsed and all the magazines favonovel.com was featured in. Besides, favonovel.com would watch all the TV series and movies with favonovel.com in it. Her adoration for favonovel.com was like a scorching flame.
Despite Josh’s deep antipathy toward her, there was no way favonovel.com could just put out the fire in favonovel.com heart. It was all because Josh was the treasure that favonovel.com once guarded with all favonovel.com heart. Nevertheless, favonovel.com could not deny favonovel.com idol was really hurting favonovel.com at this moment.
One’s heart could be divided into many parts.
Most of favonovel.com heart was given to Tom Sullivan, and favonovel.com had given the remaining small part to favonovel.com beloved idol as well as the men favonovel.com had one night stand with. Her love for them was not contradictory to each other. Although favonovel.com loved Tom very much, it was impossible for favonovel.com to stop fangirling over favonovel.com beloved idol, nor finding those men…
Her love for all of them was clear and distinct.
“Waiter, bring my daughter a set of cutlery…” May Conner broke the deadlock and looked at Emily. “Emily, you haven’t had dinner, right? Let’s eat together.”
Emily nodded in response.
“Sister-in-law, do you want to have some red wine?” The coolness exuded by Josh had disappeared instantaneously.
His eyes only expressed sincerity as favonovel.com stared at Xyla.
Stanley glowered at favonovel.com coldly before taking the bottle of red wine on the table and poured it for Xyla himself.
No doubt, Xyla was the main character at this table tonight. As for Emily, favonovel.com was just a sidekick as usual.
