As soon as Joshua returned, he threw himself into intensive practice for the upcoming fansign. Days passed in a blur of sweat and hard work. Lucas seemed to have been forgotten somewhere in the background, with only fans occasionally coming out to cry over him. All the news reports showed that he had decided to leave the entertainment industry, yet there was still no sign of any concrete action from him.
In truth, with Lucas's level of popularity, he could completely ignore everything for a while, wait for the heat of the scandal to die down, then become an internet celebrity and still make a huge amount of money, living a stable life. Even if some people scolded him, there would also be many who sympathized with him because of it. As long as he knew how to act pitiful and present himself as actively changing and moving forward, that would be enough.
