Peggy Howards was also speechless.Right then, both parents appeared to be dumbfounded.“What’s all this? Do you always spend so frivolously? You could save up the money,” Bobby Cates said.Annabeth Cates' parents led a frugal lifestyle, rarely spending on anything deemed unnecessary.Although their daughter had married into a wealthy family and the Cates family had also amassed a small fortune, they still weren’t used to the lavish lifestyle.Josh Batton grinned politely. “How can buying gifts for our parents be considered frivolous? This white suitcase contains things from us while the black one contains gifts from my parents,” he told them as he carried the suitcases to the living room. He then placed them on the floor and opened them up.Meanwhile, Annabeth gently held her parents’ hands and walked up to Josh from behind.They could see that the suitcases were full of supplements from various expensive brands unavailable locally and solely imported.Bobby and Peggy were a

“We realized there were already a lot of things for you while we were packing. That’s why we didn’t want to bring any clothes. We were planning to buy what we need here once we arrived. Don’t worry, we’ll be staying here,” Josh Batton explained immediately, knowing very well what was on their mind.Naturally, Annabeth Cates' parents were hoping their daughter would stay for a prolonged visit as they hadn’t seen her for a long time.“My schedule is all sorted out, too. We’ll be here with the two of you for some time,” he added.Bobby Cates and Peggy Howards instantly relaxed upon hearing that.“We were thinking of taking you both out on a trip somewhere. Is there anywhere you’d like to go in particular?” Annabeth asked.“We can go somewhere nearby. Traveling is a waste of money,” her father said.“No, it's not, Dad. It’ll be an eye-opening experience to go somewhere further,” she said.“How is that not a waste of money? We could eat lots of good food at home with the money,” Pegg

The women didn’t recognize Josh Batton as the renowned celebrity he was, but they were still attracted to his impressive physique and charisma.Annabeth Cates and Josh found themselves at the center of attention. It often happened regardless of when or where as long as he was around. She shone just as brightly as her celebrity husband.Josh was very decisive throughout the shopping process and would buy whatever caught her eyes.It made several women envious.Two people began talking behind them—“That guy must be filthy rich! Is that his girlfriend? He’s so good to her.”“She doesn’t even need to try anything on and he’d buy everything she sees. Is he from a wealthy family?”“That girl is so lucky. I’m so envious.”“I can sense that the guy is very good-looking. He must look handsome if he takes off his mask.”“He looks like a celebrity to me, but I can’t remember who exactly.”Hearing their conversations, Annabeth and Josh hastened their way to the fourth floor to avoid b

Seeing nobody behind them then, Josh Batton instantly closed the door.They could still hear people screaming outside.Soon, the sounds faded along with their footsteps until they were completely gone, making Josh and Annabeth Cates heave sighs of relief while exchanging glances.Josh seemed exhausted as he leaned against the door, out of breath.After putting her and the numerous shopping bags down, he peeked through the gaps in the door. “Phew, they’re finally gone.”Annabeth was still in a state of shock. “Yeah.”Frowning slightly, he removed his sunglasses. “I’m sorry that you can’t even shop peacefully. People always end up recognizing me,” he sighed apologetically, feeling genuinely sorry about this.His wife had been robbed of an ordinary life by being married to him. They always lived their lives in front of the camera.They would be photographed whenever they went out shopping or going to the movies, even merely walking on the streets.They also had to constantly ador

Peggy Howards continued to dice onions while gazing at Josh Batton. “I'm really fond of you, Josh. You have an even more wonderful personality than your appearance suggests. My daughter is very lucky to have found you.“Annabeth is a kind-hearted person, but she can be a little reckless with her words sometimes. I hope you won’t mind if she says anything to annoy you. Please try to bear with her.“Of course, you can always come to me if there’s anything you can’t handle with her. I can speak to her about it,” she added.Josh nodded gently. “There’s nothing about Annabeth that I have a problem with because I think she’s great in every aspect. Besides, men are supposed to be tolerant toward their wives. As long as she doesn’t cross any lines, I’d be more than fine with it.”She felt even more assured when she heard this.“You’re truly wonderful. Thank you,” she said, smiling in contentment.“Annabeth is even more wonderful. You and Dad have raised her well,” he complimented.“How'
