“No, I want you to stay this emotional,” Kendrick said, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.

After the kiss, Annabelle asked, “So, are you reassured now?”

Kendrick looked into her eyes for a few seconds and asked, “He’s raising your dog. What if he wants to walk the dog with you in the future? Will you turn him down?”

Annabelle couldn’t help but laugh—this sly fox had thought of everything, even that scenario.

“It’s not even my dog anymore. Why would I walk it?”

Kendrick's eyes curved with a hint of a smile. “Didn’t you say you were pretty attached to Little Barton?”

Annabelle explained she only had Little Barton for just over a month, and while she was touched the dog still remembered her, it had long become Barton—Aron’s dog now. Barton already saw him as its true owner. So, no, there was no way she’d co-raise a dog with Aron, let alone go on walks together.

“And you weren’t moved at all that he took such good care of it?”

As Kendrick spoke, he nudged her knees apart with his

    The old fox was clearly upset because she had stared a bit too long at the car when the young master drove off earlier.But she had just been deep in thought, that’s all...Still, Annabelle obediently called out, “Hubby, can I ask you a question?”Kendrick grunted in response, glancing sideways at her. “Say it.”“Is the young master and Miss Knight… in a romantic relationship?”“Don’t know. Why?”“They wore matching outfits.”“Did they? I didn’t notice.”“…They did.”Men and women really did pay attention to different things. But then again, maybe that just proved Kendrick didn’t care much about other women. Not even someone as stunning as Isabel Knight could draw his gaze.Thinking that made Annabelle pretty satisfied with his response.But her question still wasn’t answered.She pressed on, “Have the young master and Miss Knight been together a lot recently?”Kendrick gave her a look, and she quickly added, “Hubby?”His lips curled slightly, and he said, “Yeah. They’ve been in Europ

    The beautiful woman beside Young Master waved at them.Kendrick gave her a slight nod, and Young Master also turned to look.His gaze lingered on Annabelle for two seconds before shifting to Kendrick.Kendrick glanced at Young Master, then turned to Annabelle and said, “He’s the one who helped me this time.”Annabelle replied, “I saw. But why?”Kendrick paused for a second. “Maybe because there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.”That explanation, Annabelle could understand.But she was more concerned with a small, seemingly insignificant detail:Between Kendrick and Young Master, who had made the first move?Kendrick? He was stubborn. Unless absolutely necessary, he would never go to Young Master for help.Then… could it be Young Master who took the initiative?Young Master was also a proud man, but he was more results-oriented, less likely to be driven by emotion.At one point, Young Master had been manipulated by Damien into trying to harm Kendrick.Was helping Kendric

    Aron shouted again, “There’s someone in the water! Help!”The fishermen finally snapped out of it and rushed to the deck.That’s how Annabelle was rescued and brought aboard the fishing boat. The vessel went full throttle back toward port, rushing to get the severely dehydrated, hypothermic girl to land and into a hospital. They also contacted her family.However, it was a sea-fishing boat, and the return trip alone took two full days.During those two days, she stayed on the boat—in Aron’s cabin.There wasn’t a doctor on board, but fortunately, Aron’s father was a doctor, and had once forced Aron to study medicine for a while. Unfortunately, he didn’t have the aptitude, and his father eventually gave up on teaching him, focusing instead on training Ryan.Though not well-versed in medicine, Aron at least knew the basics of first aid—more reliable than the other rough fishermen aboard.He took care of Annabelle for those two days and managed to pull her back from the brink of death.Wh

    Every time the plane lifted off, Annabelle’s heart surged with excitement—and a sense of how small she truly was.The plane was still ascending, gradually stabilizing. Technically, they could unbuckle now, but Annabelle remained dazed, gazing out the window.It wasn’t until Kendrick leaned over and unfastened her seatbelt that she snapped back to reality.“Anna, want to keep talking in the bedroom?”Kendrick’s gaze flicked between her eyes and her lips. Whenever he had that look, Annabelle knew exactly what was on his mind.They’d been talking for ages back in the hospital. Then she’d shared everything about her and Aron with him—Kendrick had probably been silently stewing the entire time.She didn’t mind offering some “comfort” to her jealous old fox in a certain way.But...“If we go to the bedroom, will you even be able to listen?” she asked.“I will,” he kissed her collarbone lightly. “As long as you’re able to keep talking.”Annabelle instinctively pressed her legs together, shri

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1375 How Did It Become His Dog?

    After the fire, Annabelle had been rushed to the hospital, beginning a long and painful journey of recovery.No one in the family mentioned anything about Little Barton. She only heard from her brother, Raphael, that the firefighters hadn’t found the dog. It was likely, they guessed, that it had already been reduced to ashes.She had believed that too—that Little Barton must have perished. The thought always made her heart ache, even bringing on waves of guilt.If she hadn’t taken Little Barton home, maybe someone else would have. Maybe it wouldn’t have died in that fire.So when she later encountered Barton, and Kendrick saw how warmly Barton acted toward her, he even asked if she had raised a dog before. He said that dogs seemed able to sense when someone had loved one of their kind—they'd become more affectionate.She had shaken her head.Because Little Barton’s death had become a deep knot in her heart—one she could never quite untie, one she never dared to think too much about...
