As he watched her overflowing joy and the hidden emotion beneath that joy, Kendrick squinted his eyes slightly, but he didn't ask further.
"Have you eaten?" he changed the subject proactively. "If you haven't eaten, come downstairs and eat. I bought shrimp dumplings."
"Thank you, I have already eaten."
"Okay," Kendrick turned around to leave.
Annabelle pursed her lips and called out to him, "Kendrick, I want to talk to you."
Kendrick saw her serious expression and had a faint feeling that what she was about to say might not be what he wanted to hear.
He took off his suit jacket and casually draped it over his arm, "I'm tired today, let's talk about it tomorrow."
"Alright, then tomorrow..."
Kendrick came to the living room on the second floor, sat on the sofa in front of the French window, lit a cigarette, and took a dee

I wish it were you Chapter 1680 Is There Really No Other Choice?
After sunset, the darkness always seemed eager to descend.As they stepped into the courtyard, it felt as if night had fallen in the blink of an eye, leaving the place shrouded in gloom.The child who had led them there had already slipped away into a small shack and disappeared.A foul stench of sewage and stagnant mud filled the air.As they moved deeper into the courtyard, a dim, yellowish light under the eaves flickered on.Seeing the scene before her, Isabel couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.Near the main hall, there was a wooden bed set in the middle of the courtyard.A man lay on the bed, his lower body covered with a straw mat, seemingly naked underneath.His skin was smeared with grime as if he had just been dragged out of a muddy swamp.But despite his wretched appearance, Isabel recognized him at once.This pitiful, filthy man was none other than her ex-boyfriend, Perry.The once-elegant gentleman was now reduced to such misery.Her heart twisted with pain."Perr
I wish it were you Chapter 1679 He Was Nervous Too
This time, Julissa felt a sharp, undeniable pain.She didn’t want to interrupt Scott—after all, it was their wedding night—so she bit her lip and tried to endure it.But her dear Mr. Nichols, in that moment, clearly didn’t understand her discomfort. He even mistook the pained expression on her face as a sign of pleasure.So he became more fervent… and Julissa’s struggle grew even more intense.Her back was soaked with sweat, dampening the hair at her temples, which now clung to Scott’s cheek. The two of them were completely intertwined, inseparable—but the intimacy had crossed the line into unbearable.Finally, Julissa pushed against the insatiable CEO.“Mr. Nichols… wait…”But he was far too immersed in the moment, so focused that Julissa wasn’t even sure if he heard her at all.“Wait a second, Mr. Nichols… I’m not feeling well…”This time, her push was firmer, and her tone serious—not playful or flirtatious.Scott finally paused. “What’s wrong?”Julissa told him it hurt—worse than i
I wish it were you Chapter 1678 Not from the Same World
Only now did Kamila finally understand why children from disadvantaged backgrounds were often so sensitive, and why some people developed a resentment toward the rich—perhaps it was this overwhelming sense of disparity and imbalance.But Kamila didn’t resent Anna or Julissa. She simply realized that sometimes, people’s joys and sorrows didn’t really connect.She sincerely wished Julissa a happy marriage, but she didn’t want to attend such weddings anymore, didn’t want to glimpse into such lives, and she especially didn’t want to stay in touch with Gauge.Those things only made it harder for her to face her own shattered, chaotic life.All she wanted now was to return to her own world and live it out the best she could—never reaching for what wasn’t hers, maybe then, she wouldn't be in so much pain.Kamila took a deep breath, looked away, and walked toward the exit of the hotel.But she hadn’t yet left the back garden when she heard Gauge’s voice calling her name from behind.Her eyes
I wish it were you Chapter 1677 So What If She Likes Me
Gauge had always known Kamila came from a modest background, but he hadn’t realized it was *this* humble. He’d assumed that if she could afford piano lessons, things couldn’t be too bad. And in a big, international city like Elfhedge, he never imagined places of such poverty even existed.But that crumbling old building, and the dark, grimy stairwell she walked into—it was real.Later, Gauge learned her piano lessons had been sponsored by one of her music teachers. The teacher had seen her talent and not only taught her for free but also covered other expenses.Maybe he had looked too surprised at the time, because Kamila had seemed a little embarrassed.“Sorry to bring you somewhere like this,” she said.“I just didn’t expect it…” Gauge trailed off, realizing how rude that sounded.Kamila shook her head. “It’s okay. You’ve never been to a place like this—being surprised is normal. High-rises are part of Elfhedge, but so are the slums.”Gauge had felt a sudden pang of shame.He’d live
I wish it were you Chapter 1676 Long Time No See
Scott watched as Julissa’s nose broke out in cold sweat. He could no longer bear to keep going. Besides, they had been in the lounge for a while now—while it was fine for newlyweds to sneak in a little break at their wedding, it wouldn’t do to disappear for too long.Finally, he restrained his desires, his voice hushed, "We’ll continue tonight."The two quickly tidied themselves up and returned to the banquet hall.Scott was back to his usual composed self, with his elegant demeanor and refined speech.Julissa glanced at him, thinking to herself, *Mr. Nichols really embodies the term "reserved yet flirtatious" to the fullest.* Who would have thought that this gentleman, so careful with his words and polite, could be so full of desire behind closed doors? When it came to teasing, he was absolutely shameless.She couldn’t help but recall his promise from earlier: to continue tonight. Julissa suddenly felt uneasy.Tonight wasn't their first time, but it was still their wedding night. On
I wish it were you Chapter 1675 Mr. Gregory’s Favorite Hobby — Public Displays of Affection
“I wasn’t talking bad about you!” Julissa quickly defended herself.Scott gave a faint smile. “Good to hear.”Annabelle and Kendrick exchanged a smile. Who would’ve thought that the once bickering couple would end up husband and wife?While Scott and Kendrick continued chatting, Julissa added, “But your Mr. Gregory *is* more romantic than mine. At least he takes you on spontaneous trips. My Mr. Nichols only knows how to work.”Annabelle shook her head. “He’s just getting lazier. Not enthusiastic about work, but the minute I mention a trip, he’s already booking flights. And when I say he’s not ambitious, he says that making money is exactly for the purpose of living this kind of carefree life.”Sometimes, Annabelle couldn’t help but compare him to Scott. And every time she did, Kendrick would get jealous, accusing her of having eyes for that guy. It left her speechless. And when this man got jealous, he didn’t stop at words—he *acted* on it, especially in certain… private ways.After m
