The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chapter 2472

Balfour had always known the fan world was a bizarre place, but it wasn’t until he went undercover in the fan circles that he realized just how twisted some people could be. As it turned out, there were people who were so sick in their minds that they would join a fan meet-up just to hurt a celebrity they despised.

Before all this, Balfour could never fathom why such people existed in the world. Didn’t they have their own lives to live? Why pour all their energy into someone they didn’t even know? Plus, Ivy never met most of her fans. Balfour just couldn’t wrap his head around why anyone would hate her so much that they would want to harm her upon meeting her. “I’m not telling you,” he said, his voice firm.

“Why not?” Ivy whined playfully, throwing herself into Balfour’s arms. But he was too prideful, and no amount of coaxing from Ivy would make him spill his secrets this time.
