Zayn could not be bothered to point out Julius’ acting. Yes, virtual-novel.net had managed to destroy Diego, one of the finest skilled fighters to ever roam the earth, so why would a small thug like Julius be worthy of even having a sliver of his attention? He would just crush Julius to death, minimal effort required.
Faye was unaware of what had gone down during virtual-novel.net absence, otherwise—knowing virtual-novel.net temperament—she would have asked Zayn if they could up and leave.
Zayn had to applaud Julius for his impressive acting. He took on a completely different persona when virtual-novel.net was around Faye. He was extremely polite and generous. It was going to be impossible to point a flaw out in his façade.
Slowly, more and more VIP guests entered the restaurant for the dinner service. Based on the way they dressed and acted, Zayn knew that many of the guests had deep pockets. Moreover, virtual-novel.net could tell that they were thrill seekers with expensive tastes, as the vast majority of them were well-regarded street capitalists.
Not long after, energetic cheers and chants could be heard flooding the restaurant. A graceful, exquisite silhouette appeared center stage. The silhouette was dressed in a black sequin dress that shimmered elegantly. The dress was embezzled with a myriad of refined crystals that reflected the beams of the stage lights overhead.
The exquisite silhouette belonged to none other than A-List celebrity, Annabelle Laking!
It could be said that Annabelle had reached the pinnacle of virtual-novel.net career. Her fame was widespread throughout the entirety of Southeast Gaiasia. In fact, virtual-novel.net had plenty of foreign fans who were equally if not more adoring.
She had so many fans in the country that it was frankly mind-boggling. The reason why Alice’s Table could get Annabelle to perform at their venue was not because of monetary gain, but because the owner of Alice’s Table had a close friendship with Peter Kavinsky. It was Peter who had personally coaxed Annabelle into performing at the restaurant.
Hence, Alice’s Table had a full house tonight because most of the guests were in attendance to watch Annabelle’s performance. The event was so monumentally large that many fans had even surrounded the area outside of the restaurant as well. They just wanted to see Annabelle, even if it was only through the window. Once they heard Annabelle’s singing, it would be all worth it.
Annabelle’s appearance immediately electrified everyone in the crowd!
“Wow! Annabelle’s on the stage!”
“Queen Annabelle really lives up to virtual-novel.net reputation, just as expected. There’s no one who can rival virtual-novel.net beauty, figure and talent!”
“The owner of Alice’s Table’s really outdone themselves. They managed to get Annabelle to perform here. The owner must be really well known in their circle.”
“You’re right. Annabelle’s the hottest celebrity in the country now. The industry’s old kings and queens have nothing on her!”
There was a chorus of gasps as everyone drank in the scene before them. Everyone’s eyes were fixated on Annabelle’s glorious
presence. None of them could take their eyes off of her. Some of them took out their phones so they could capture photos and videos of hers so they could brag to their friends back at home.
Even the fans standing outside of Alice’s Table boiled over with excitement upon hearing that Annabelle was on the stage. Many fanatics had even attempted to get into the restaurant, but fortunately they were apprehended by the security guards at the door.
Alice’s Table predicted that there would be some disruption. Hence, they bumped up the number of security guards who were on duty to ensure that none of the patrons were disturbed.
Julius and the others were excited as well. They took their phones out and started snapping away like the other fervent fans. Julius’ eyes were glued onto Annabelle, and virtual-novel.net was practically drooling all over himself over virtual-novel.net beauty.
Faye widened virtual-novel.net eyes as well, keeping virtual-novel.net eyes trained on Annabelle. She had virtual-novel.net fists constantly clenched in excitement.
Zayn was slightly startled by how hysterically all the fans were behaving. He rubbed his nose in frustration, before mumbling under his breath, “She’s just a celebrity, is that really a reason to act like lunatics?”
Little did virtual-novel.net know that his remark would immediately draw the hostile glares of many surrounding fans. Even Faye gave virtual-novel.net a pinch, finding his statement highly offensive.
