Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2156

The women didn’t recognize Josh Batton as the renowned celebrity he was, but they were still attracted to his impressive physique and charisma.

Annabeth Cates and Josh found themselves at the center of attention. It often happened regardless of when or where as long as he was around.

She shone just as brightly as her celebrity husband.

Josh was very decisive throughout the shopping process and would buy whatever caught her eyes.

It made several women envious.

Two people began talking behind them—

“That guy must be filthy rich! Is that his girlfriend? He’s so good to her.”

“She doesn’t even need to try anything on and he’d buy everything she sees. Is he from a wealthy family?”

“That girl is so lucky. I’m so envious.”

“I can sense that the guy is very good-looking. He must look handsome if he takes off his mask.”

“He looks like a celebrity to me, but I can’t remember who exactly.”

Hearing their conversations, Annabeth and Josh hastened their way to the fourth floor to avoid being recognized.

The fourth floor had shops selling men's clothes, and they still attracted attention even there.

She led him into a store selling casual apparel where he followed her around, carrying all the shopping bags they'd bought as she continuously held some clothes up against him for a once over.

Josh just did whatever Annabeth wanted and bought six different outfits she picked out for him.

“I’m Josh’s loyal fan. I think that’s him no matter how I look at it. I can tell from the back of his head and neck.”

The couple in question exchanged glances as they heard what they said and began to pick up the speed as they walked.

Seeing this, the people behind also quickened their pace, intending to get to the bottom of their identities.

To avoid being recognized and trapped in the mall, Josh handed the bags in his left hand to Annabeth and proceeded to pick her up with one arm, hurrying down the escalator.

She held onto the bags with one hand, wrapping the other hand around his neck as they worked together seamlessly.

The faster the two of them moved, the more those people suspected who they might be.

Suddenly, the crowd went wild.
