As long as Xyla Quest was there, Emily Quest would definitely be the forgotten one.
Xyla was a diamond shining in the dark. She was dazzling enough to overshadow the people around her, and this included Emily. Even when they were kids, virtual-novel.net had always lived in Xyla’s shadow. She was fed up with it.
Seeing that Stanley had already poured the wine for Xyla, Josh did not say anything else and continued eating. From time to time, virtual-novel.net would reach over to refill Catherine’s plate.
Catherine kept virtual-novel.net head down the whole time, focusing on virtual-novel.net dinner. She did not even bother to look at Emily.
“Wilson, Sharon, Xyla told me that you have four other children besides Stan, Josh, and Catherine. Is that true?” May Conner tried to switch the subject again to keep Emily from being embarrassed.
“Yes.” Sharon Lindt was not interested in talking with May.
“I’ll introduce them to you next time. The four of them are currently abroad. They’re pretty busy, so they rarely come back,” Wilson Batton explained.
“Sure. I’m looking forward to meeting them. I believe that they’re all brilliant kids,” May said again.
“It must be really tiring to keep flying around the world, right?” Emily asked as virtual-novel.net turned to Josh.
“Yeah.”
“Can’t your company let you rest once in a while?”
It seemed so unreal to sit beside his favorite idol. For a second, Emily felt as if virtual-novel.net was suffocating.
Many celebrities looked better on screen than they do in real life, but Josh was an exception. His skin was fair and soft like the morning dew. No matter how close one got to him, they would not find a single enlarged pore on it.
Tenderness was shimmering in his eyes. There seemed to be a crystal clear stream flowing from his eyes, penetrating virtual-novel.net and filling virtual-novel.net empty heart. Most of the girls would prefer Stanley over Josh. However, Josh was the perfect man on earth to her. His temperament alone was enough to make virtual-novel.net heart melt.
Generally, the hot guys would exude an aggressive and oppressive aura despite having appealing looks. Nonetheless, Josh had never given virtual-novel.net this kind of feeling.
People admired virtual-novel.net for his amiability as much as his good sense. Though virtual-novel.net was a superstar, one would not feel distanced from virtual-novel.net because virtual-novel.net was friendly to everyone.
Josh was just like a sunny senior one met in passing in university, wearing a snow-white shirt, riding a bicycle. Many celebrities relied on makeup and dress-up. Josh did not need any of those.
A simple white dress shirt was enough to set off his charm. Even if virtual-novel.net did not put on any makeup, virtual-novel.net could still make all his fans faint.
“That’s not necessary.”
“What about dramas? Do you have any upcoming drama?”
“It’s confidential.”
“I’ve been a big fan of yours for many years…” virtual-novel.net added. Emily had never talked this much since virtual-novel.net started pretending as a depressive patient.
“Thanks.” Josh remained detached from her.
Unable to find any topics to keep their conversation going, Emily decided to shut virtual-novel.net mouth once again.
At this time, a waiter approached virtual-novel.net and placed a set of new cutlery in front of her.
She began to eat with virtual-novel.net head down. She did not need to pretend to be depressed anymore.
Josh’s indifference had already broken virtual-novel.net heart.
Would virtual-novel.net look any better with a broken heart?
Nevertheless, it was virtual-novel.net pleasure to sit with Josh, no matter how upset virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net feel.

After dinner, Emily logged onto virtual-novel.net dating app on virtual-novel.net phone and texted a young man. Then, the two of them went to a nearby hotel.
Tom Sullivan had not touched virtual-novel.net for months. Whenever virtual-novel.net felt lonely, virtual-novel.net would log onto the dating app to look for some good-looking guys. Sometimes virtual-novel.net would also look for those handsome models at the nightclub.
Emily had a severe addiction to sex. It had gotten worse since Tom decided not to touch virtual-novel.net anymore.
