Benjamin looked at her, her long hair slightly disheveled, her face turning pale, and her once pristine white shoes now dirty from being trampled on. A wave of guilt washed over him.
âIâm sorry.â
He murmured softly, then turned to face the crowd of fans with a stern voice, âAll you do every day is follow my car, track my flights, and buy my personal info from scalpers. Donât you have homes to go back to, or schools to attend?!â
âCan you please keep away from my private life and those close to me?!â
âIf this happens again, Iâll call the police!â
He tossed away the gifts forcibly stuffed into the car, grabbed Xantheaâs wrist, and walked away from the crowd, leaving Oliver astonished and the fans incredulous.
Movie King was known for his gentle demeanor; he was always gracious, even to the most critical of reporters. Yet, he had just exploded in anger just now, not only discarding the gifts from his fans, but also threatening to call the policeâwas it all to protect the beautiful girl by his side?!
Xanthea was startled by Benjaminâs reaction. âIs it okay to talk to your fans like that?â
She might not understand the entertainment industry, but she understood that as a celebrity, one should be cautious, especially when dealing with fans.
âItâs fine, those arenât fans, theyâre overzealous stalkers. Thereâs no need to be polite to them.â
âOh.â
Indeed, which fans would swarm a celebrity so badly that he couldnât even get out of his car?
âItâs actually my fault you got dragged into this,â Benjamin said with a hint of regret. âItâs all my fault for inadvertently revealing our whereabouts and not paying attention to what you were saying in the car.â
âItâs okay, just a minor hiccup.â Xanthea shrugged. âLetâs head to the launch event.â
âXan, after the event, can I take you out for dinner?â
âHuh?â
My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace ï¤Chapter 112 Xanthea scratched her head, still feeling a bit jittery from the earlier mobbing.
âDonât worry, Iâll be careful this time; there wonât be any stalkers following us.â
âLetâs make it another day.â
âPlease, give me a chance to make it up to you. I really feel awful about the incident today.â
Benjaminâs eyes were filled with remorse and sincerity. She found it hard to refuse him. âAlright.â
âLetâs give the warmest applause to celebrate the official start of âRealm of Illusions!ââ
Though there had been a slight disruption, the launch event went smoothly. When it was Benjaminâs turn to speak, Xanthea stepped off the stage and wanted to deal with her dirty shoes in the dressing room.
But before she reached the dressing room, she encountered the same group of frenzied stalkers.
Despite being scolded by Benjamin earlier, they hadnât left. Were they planning another ambush?
She took out her phone, about to call the staff for assistance, but the group surrounded her again.
They looked menacing and aggressive.
â?â Xanthea blinked. âDid you mistake me for someone else?â
âWe didnât. Whatâs your relationship with Benjamin? Why is he protecting you?â
âYeah! Benjamin is a film legend, never does TV dramas. This time heâs agreed to act in this small web seriesâis it because of you?â
âWith that flirtatious looks, did you seduce Benjamin?â
âDid you sleep with him? How could he fall for a cheap girl like you!â
