Chapter 1621


    Since they had already decided on an abortion, there was no reason for Josh Batton to tell his mother the truth.


    If Josh told the truth, Sharon Lindt would certainly feel sad about losing the child.


    "It isn''t? D*mn. I was all excited for nothing..." Sharon said.


    "Why aren''t you asleep yet? It''s already veryte. Are you staying up to y games again?" Josh changed the topic immediately. He looked down at his ssy watch...


    It was already one o''clock in the morning...


    "Yeah. My rank kept falling today. I''m not in the mood to sleep at all," Sharon said.


    "I can''t believe it... Are you still a child? How could you be losing sleep over your rankings in a game?" Josh''s tone sounded helpless yet affectionate. "Sigh... I don''t want to either, but I can''t help it. Do you have any idea how many dumb people I met tonight? What''s wrong with the system? It keeps pairing me with stupid teammates," Sharonmented.


    "I''ve got to give it to you. Hurry up and go to bed. X and I will help you get your rankings back up next time," Josh said.


    "Okay. That''s the only way... Alright, I''ll get off the call now. I must win a single round before I go to bed. Otherwise, I won''t sleep soundly tonight!" Sharon eximed.


    "Don''t do that. Sleepingte is bad for your skin. It''s even worse for your health.” Josh was nagging if he was a father.


    “Alright, stop nagging. It''s annoying. Since that kid isn''t yours, hurry up and respond on Weibo... Spare your fans the tears...


    "I was heartbroken when I saw how sad those young girls were," Sharon said.


    With that, she hung up the phone.


    When Josh heard that the call had ended, he felt as if he were the parents while his mother was the disobedient child...


    What could he do about his mother''s child-like temperament?


    There wasn''t much he could do. So naturally, he''d just have to bear with her.


    Josh pinched his forehead helplessly once again.


    He slowly walked back into the ward and sat next to Annabeth.


    Josh then called his friend who


    worked as a doctor in the municipal hospital''s Obstetrics and


    el.n2


    Gynecology Department. Josh told his friend that his assistant was pregnant and needed an abortion...


    Josh asked him to keep things hushed.


    His friend agreed without asking much about it.


    After everything had been discussed and sorted out, Josh looked at Annabeth''s lower abdomen with mixed feelings.


    His heart started aching again when he looked at her stomach...


    To make himself feel better, he quickly looked away. After that, he opened Weibo.


    Josh was trying to distract himself...


    When he got onto Weibo, he saw titles on the list of hot topics of how he rushed Annabeth to the hospitalte at night, how he shouted at his fans for Annabeth''s sake, and how Annabeth was pregnant...


    Each title had the word ''explosive'' at the end.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Josh subconsciously opened the first one on the list of hot topics. #Josh shouted at his fans for Annabeth''s sake#''.


    After tapping on it, Josh could see videos and reports of what happened at the venue, as well as news about Annabeth''s pregnancy.


    Shifting his gaze downward, he saw manyments from his fans-


    "The way he behaved clearly showed how


    say thich he cares about her. I dare there must be someth are


    going on between them.


    kid is


    his."


    "Sob-sob... I feel as if my house has copsed. Josh, you heartless man."


    “Ahh... The idol I''ve been in love with for so many years has been taken by someone else. I want to die..."


    "I can''t ept this. Sob-sob. I must be in a dream. Josh, you''re heartless!"


    "This isn''t how an idol should behave. He doesn''t deserve fans."
