After that, Xyla introduced Josh to Lana. The trio was chattering on like they were very well acquainted.
Mary, who remained standing not too far away, was extremely jealous.
In recent years, she had spent a lot of money on him, but Josh never treated her that way before. He was gentle and polite to her, but there was still a sense of detachment.
But what about Xyla? They looked very friendly with each other.
Having been a fan of Josh Batton for so many years, this was her first time seeing him getting so close to a woman.
Even if he co-starred with someone for a film or drama, he would intentionally keep a distance and refrain from chatting this leisurely during the press.
The way Josh treated Xyla was Mary’s dream of how he would treat her.
Chasing after him for so long and following him everywhere, it was all so that she could get closer to him. But no matter how she tried, it failed.
If she could not attain it, why should Xyla?
“That’s Xyla Quest, right? Feels like Brother Josh is treating her differently.”
“Yeah… They are constantly talking with each other. It’s my first time seeing Brother Josh treating a woman this way.”
“I used to tease the fans in Brother Josh’s fan club that he has gynophobia.”
The comments from all around sounded piercing to Mary’s ears.
Her hands instantly balled into fists as her nails dug into her palms.
For a groupie like her, there was nothing more hateful than watching with her own eyes, her beloved idol chattering closely with the woman she despised.
“All of you shut up,” Mary snapped. She took up her phone to snap a photo of Xyla leaning toward Josh as she talked.
After that, feeling annoyed, she found her seat. It was just beside Josh, three people away from him.
