Revenge of the Hideous Lady by Moonlight

When Annabeth Cates heard what Josh Batton said, she instantly felt her heart swelling with warmth.

She could guess what the subject matter was about, despite not hearing the entire conversation.

She hastened her steps towards him.

When Josh saw her rapid pace, he immediately dashed forward and grabbed her by the arms with a nervous look on his face.

Covering his phone with one hand, he gazed at Annabeth in alarm. "What are you doing? Haven't I told you not to walk up the stairs so fast? What if you end up hurting yourself? How are you going to compensate for that?"

"I'll find a way, I guess," she answered.

"You can't."

Annabeth was speechless.

"Wait for me upstairs. I'm having a chat with Georgie," Josh said.

Knowing Georgie was on the other end of the line, she immediately snatched the phone away from him. "Georgie, are we invited to take part in another couple's variety show?"

"Yes," Georgie answered truthfully.

Annabeth leaned against the railing after hearing this. She then turned to look at her husband. "Is this show good, Georgie?"

"Well, it's definitely good stuff if it's coming from Lychee Terrace. However, I'm going to turn them down. Let's not dwell on this any further," Georgie expressed.

"Don't turn them down yet. Wait for me to discuss with Josh first," Annabeth said firmly.

"All right then."

Afterward, Annabeth hung up the phone and caught Josh gazing back at her in curiosity. "Do you want to take part in the show? You're pregnant, and it will be very tiring as there will be outdoor shots in that show."

Annabeth quickly stepped forward and held his hand. "But I'm not worried about being tired. Besides, I'm no longer suffering from pregnancy-related side effects. I'm not afraid of the cold or anything like that anymore.
