As Jeremy Quest watched them, his gaze became even more tender.
Betty Starmount was a great girl. His heart melted at the thought of how kind she was that he wanted to give her all the wonderful things in the world.
Since Josh Batton still had work to do, he didn’t linger too long in the ward and soon left with Annabeth Cates, who was attired in full disguise.
Upon leaving the ward, they entered the elevator discreetly, and then quickly stepped out once it arrived on the first floor.
There was a large group of people waiting for the elevator outside the door.
A girl in front directly approached Josh as she gave him the once over. “You must be Josh Batton, right?”
The more she observed him, the more similar to her idol he seemed.
Seeing the crowd around them, he wanted to avoid causing a scene. “No.”
With that, he held Annabeth’s hand and hurried toward the main entrance.
Right then, the ladies among the group became excited as soon as they recognized his voice.
Everyone began screaming like lunatics—
“It surely is him! I could recognize that voice from a mile away.”
