Kendrick nodded and gave the name of a hotel—right down to the room number. Annabelle quickly passed the details to Seraphina.

After hearing it, Seraphina thanked her profusely. “I knew I asked the right person!” Her voice sounded visibly more upbeat.

Then she added, “I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll thank you properly in person next time!”

She hung up almost immediately after.

When the call ended, Annabelle, still blushing, turned to settle accounts with Kendrick. She flipped over and straddled his waist, adopting a rare domineering posture and glared down at him. “You really went too far just now!”

This wasn’t the first time. The more important the phone call, the more Kendrick liked to tease her—like he was purposely trying to make her trip up or blush.

Kendrick gently stroked her waist and laughed. “How did I go too far? Didn’t I say everything you wanted me to?”

Seeing his shameless expression, Annabelle was equal parts exasperated and helpless. “I’m getting up. You can stay in

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1400 The Young Master Doesn't Understand

    Seraphina was utterly baffled by Isabel’s behavior.At the intersection again, the young master slowly brought the car to a stop. This time, the braking was smooth—clearly, he was being considerate of her as a passenger.Her mood lifted a little, but when she thought about that villa, and everything the young master had once done for Anna, jealousy still simmered in her chest. She turned to look at him, unable to resist shooting him a glare.The young master winced dramatically and reached out to roughly ruffle her hair. “Still glaring? I paid attention this time. Didn’t slam on the brakes, did I?”She swatted his hand away, muttering under her breath, “You’re so mighty—who would dare glare at you…”“Seraphina.”He rarely called her by her full name. Hearing it so suddenly, and so seriously, made her back stiffen. “What…?”Her tone was laced with resentment, but her eyes betrayed her nervousness, and her voice trembled slightly.“You’ve been sulky ever since we got in the car. What’s

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1399 A Knot in the Heart

    The young master, with his long legs, reached her side in just two steps. He’d already ended his call, put away his phone, and gave her a deep look. “I’ll deal with you later.”Without pausing, he strode toward the main entrance.Seraphina’s heart gave a jolt. She quickly followed behind him and asked cautiously, “Young Master, what happened?”As they spoke, the two had already exited the art museum.“I’ll explain later.” He paused briefly to hand her the paper bag and her purse. “Put your coat on. I’ll go get the car. Wait here.”Seraphina hurriedly took the items. The young master was already striding toward the parking lot.She quickly walked down the museum steps and stood by the roadside to wait, pulling out the trench coat from the large paper bag and putting it on.The night wind was chilly. She shivered and pulled the coat tighter around her.What exactly had happened?The last time the young master had been this tense was when they had to organize a sea search for Anna…A sle

    Seraphina stood there like a schoolgirl pulled up to answer a question—unable to sit until she replied.Only, in this case, she couldn’t get up until she answered the Young Master’s question…Flustered, she started babbling nonsense: “This piece… I think it’s trying to teach us a lesson…”“What lesson?”“That a man’s love is a gentle trap. One you shouldn’t step into lightly. Once you do, you can’t get out…”The Young Master bit her ear gently. “I think you’re the trap, Seraphina. Once I fell in, I didn’t want to get out.”His words carried a double meaning. Seraphina flushed scarlet.…In the end, Seraphina accidentally tugged off one of the ribbon installations.Still wearing only the Young Master’s oversized blazer, she held the dislodged tangle of red ribbon and spun anxiously around the installation. “Oh no, how do we fix this?”The Young Master dressed slowly, unbothered. “No need. It’s fine.”“How can it be fine? I ruined it!”“That artist just threw stuff together. Didn’t care

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1397 A Petty Victory

    While being passionately kissed by the young master, Seraphina’s mind was a little foggy, but still couldn’t help wondering—wasn’t the young master’s authority a bit too extensive? It was one thing to rent out the whole venue, but he even had the security cameras turned off?The artifacts in this gallery were all precious. How could the curator possibly agree to shut off surveillance? Just how much money had the young master thrown at them to get away with something so outrageous...Once the kiss ended, Seraphina finally voiced her suspicions.The young master chuckled. “Who told you I rented the place?”“You said so yourself.”“I said I paid money.”“Isn’t that the same thing as renting it out?”“The gallery was built with my money. All the exhibits were purchased with my money. Get it now?”He might as well have added, This is my turf, I can do whatever I want. Got it?And in truth, he was doing whatever he wanted.Seraphina’s dress was already pushed halfway up her waist—his intent

    Seraphina didn’t quite know how to explain it. Should she tell the Young Master that whenever she saw muscular male statues, she immediately thought of him?“Anyway, I’m not looking,” she said, brushing it off.“Alright then, we’ll do as you say,” the Young Master replied, leading her into one of the oil painting galleries.They strolled quietly along the corridor, taking in the artwork as they walked.The gallery was serene. The Young Master moved with steady steps, pausing here and there at his own rhythm to study the paintings.Seraphina, on the other hand, was more scattered. Sometimes, the Young Master had already finished admiring a piece and moved on, only for her to realize belatedly and hurry to catch up. Other times, she wandered ahead, only to turn back and find him still lingering behind.Eventually, the Young Master simply wrapped an arm around her waist—partly to keep her from wandering off, and partly to support her tipsy self.Champagne wasn’t very strong, technically

    So the young master really did book out the whole place...It was the first time in her life that Seraphina had the entire art museum to herself.She was touched by the gesture, but still…As she chewed on a bite of veal, Seraphina's mind drifted toward the young master’s financials.She was well aware of the few accounts he had and his overall financial status. If she wanted, she could know the ins and outs of his daily transactions.Lately, he’d been spending quite a bit while in Europe. She’d been sitting at home, watching money flow out of his accounts like water, and honestly, it hurt.Now she knew that it wasn’t due to reckless indulgence. He had been using that money to deal with business partners. Still, the pace at which it was being spent—far too fast—made her uneasy.She wasn’t just distressed; she was genuinely concerned.The young master had only recently taken over the company. Business hadn’t been great in the previous two years, and he had been injecting funds into it
