“My husband and I have decided to set up the Love Charity Foundation because we want to help children in need.
“We hope we can help children from poverty-stricken families by financially providing for them in terms of education and healthcare.
“I believe that we’ll be able to help many people in need with the support of all the generous people in this hall,” Xyla Quest said.
The first part of her speech ended with thunderous applause.
“As for donations, I will leave it up to each individual on how much you’d like to donate. You're not obligated to contribute if you don’t want to.
“Thank you to everyone who does. Otherwise, consider this as a free concert on my part,” she went on in earnest.
“Tonight's performances are all very entertaining, brought to you by excellent artistes from X Entertainment.
“Without further ado, please enjoy the performances.”
With that, Xyla bowed to the audience, perfectly composed despite many eyes on her.
Meanwhile, reporters were also pointing cameras directly at her, recording her every move.
Still smiling, she continued speaking. “Please join me in welcoming the biggest star in X Entertainment, Josh Batton. He will be opening tonight's show for us with an exciting performance.”
As soon as she finished her introduction, the hall erupted into another round of thunderous applause as the stage lights dimmed into a warm, soft yellow tone as everyone watched.
All other lights in the hall went off until only a single beam remained on the stage.
The song ‘Brightest Star in the Night Sky’ began playing, and Josh Batton sang along to the pleasant melody while he walked to the center of the stage.
His perfect physique was apparent in a white tuxedo over a blue shirt on the inside and a pair of silver shoes from Tod’s.
