Abigail chuckled, deliberately holding him in suspense.
"Abigail's favorite celebrities are coming to North Hampton," Zoey piped up. "This girl has been yapping about it all night."
Abigail glared at her. "Why did you say it?"
Levi frowned. "That's all?"
Abigail nodded with pride. "Yeah, my idols are coming. How is that not great news?"
"Oh."
Levi walked away.
Abigail went after him. "Are you upset?"
"Lame.”
"What do you mean, lame? One of them is pretty, and the other is handsome! Here, let me show you their pictures! This is Yelda Zamora. She's not only pretty, but her singing is superb! She's the hottest female star out there!"
Abigail showed Levi some pictures through her phone.
Levi flicked a glance. "So-so. She's worse than your sister though."
"And this is Zak Copland! Look, isn't he handsome?"
Levi pushed her out and closed the door behind him.
That's more like it.
Levi had never been interested in celebrities!
It was always the soldiers who sacrificed and struggled for the glory of the country, but it was these celebrities who received the honor and enjoyed special privileges instead!
No one knew his brothers had died for the country and that their bodies had been left in the wilderness, but these celebrities made it to the news with just a headache and elicited pity from the public with just a paper cut on their finger from filming.
While the martyr's grave was left collecting dust, an entertainer's anecdotes were known to all.
It was based on this standpoint that Levi couldn't get himself to like any celebrities.
Outside the room, Abigail went to harass Zoey again.
"Zoey, do you know they were invited to Rogers Group's fortieth-anniversary celebration? Uncle said that I can finally meet them on that day!" she squealed.
