Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 2396

Lukas Ronaldo returned Josh Batton's smile and hug.

The camera captured their exchange as it followed Lukas up on stage after the congratulatory hug.

Josh joined the audience in applause and watched him with a proud expression on his face.

As a senior, he was pleased to see a junior from the same company doing so well.

Lukas' popularity soared in the past few years, making them on par with one another in terms of talents and capabilities.

Somehow, they ended up in a healthy competition despite people saying they were rivals who couldn’t share the limelight.

Additionally, Josh would never want to hurt his junior in any way.

He thought it was great that the entertainment industry had new talents like Lukas.

While everyone watched, Lukas walked onto the stage, remaining calm in front of the camera.

He had lost his self-consciousness after many years of being under the spotlight. He always seemed undaunted no matter the occasion.

Xyla Quest was delighted to see him like that.

Sharon Lindt couldn’t look away from the screen. “Lukas is so handsome.”

“Have you grown fond of him recently?” Xyla asked.

“Yeah, I’m a huge fan. Xyla, you must take good care of him,” her mother-in-law told her. "Give him more support and publicity, got it?"

Sharon had a concerned look on her face, much to Xyla's amusement, who often saw the same expression in fans welcoming their idols at the airport.

She nodded. “Okay, don’t worry.”

“Get him roles as the main lead in movies and variety shows. I want to see him more often,” the older woman added, acting like a schoolgirl with a celebrity crush when she spoke about him.

“Okay, okay. Don’t worry.”

“Oh, right. The self-heating rice cooker Lukas endorsed is going on sale at midnight. I have to set my alarm to buy it.
