The police politely escorted Kendrick and Annabelle to the gate, and Annabelle's face had turned red all the way to her neck.

"Put me down quickly, my leg isn't injured..." she grumbled as she slapped Kendrick's chest.

Kendrick then put her down, thinking to himself, "What a little white-eyed wolf you are. Just a moment ago, you were so scared that your face turned pale. I thought you couldn't walk because your legs were weak, so I held you. And you still hit me."

Annabelle remembered what had happened at the police station and asked, "By the way, was it you who asked the police to be a little nicer to me?"

Although she was scared just now, she also knew that it was her own psychological factor. Because in the previous two hours, no one had troubled her, and that so-called detention room seemed to be just a duty room.

"No." Kendrick's face looked a bit unpleasant. "It was a classmate of yours who asked someone to take care of you. And he is a Murph

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1090 Afraid You Might Like Him

    Annabelle took Kendrick on a tour of the mansion, and the more they walked around, the more excited she became.The last time they visited, it was during the day; this time, it was at night, and the season was different. Naturally, the feeling was not the same.What mattered even more was that the person by her side was him, Kendrick.Moreover, after she told him the story behind the mansion, he didn’t react with the jealousy she had expected, which eased her heart a great deal.So, with her guard down, she led Kendrick to the pavilion and turned to smile at him. "Well, how is it? Do you like it?"Kendrick sat on the bench in the pavilion, patting his thigh, signaling her to sit on it.Annabelle’s face flushed slightly. She hesitated for a second, then obediently sat on his lap.One arm around her waist, the other moving her hair from her chest to her shoulder, Kendrick commented, "Looks like Elio really designed this mansion to your liking."Annabelle knew he was getting jealous agai

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1089 No Guarantee I Won't Be Angry

    Annabelle broke out in a cold sweat, but there was also a trace of defiance as she retorted, "Then why did you lie to me, saying you were going to a social gathering?" It was because of this lie that she started suspecting something.At this moment, the waiter arrived with the dishes, and Kendrick didn’t immediately answer her.After the waiter left, Annabelle continued to wait for his answer, but Kendrick casually said, "Let’s eat first."Was that avoiding the question? Or did he not want to discuss it during dinner?Since he didn’t want to talk about Frost, Annabelle decided not to bring it up either. After all, she already knew that no matter why Kendrick didn’t tell her about meeting Frost, there was no ambiguous relationship between them.So, Annabelle quietly ate her food.Maybe it was because she had already drunk too much juice, but after just a few bites, she felt full. She told Kendrick to take his time while she sat across from him, staring out the window, lost in thought.

    Annabelle felt the pain but didn’t dare make a sound.By now, she completely understood what was going on.The man who approached her and ended up as her "cover"—he was Frost, that male escort…As for why she was here, Kendrick clearly had it all figured out. But he obviously didn’t plan to call her out in front of others. Instead, he simply acted like she had planned to come along and had just arrived a bit earlier.So Annabelle replied, “I’ve only been here for half an hour.”Kendrick then turned to the man across from her and said lightly, “Looks like you two have already met?”Annabelle quickly shook her head. “No, we haven’t.”She absolutely didn’t want Kendrick thinking she was the one hitting on a male escort…The man scratched the bridge of his nose and said, “Sorry, I didn’t know she was with you, Mr. Gregory. I thought…”Annabelle rubbed her forehead—he probably meant he thought she was a potential client. What a massive misunderstanding…“Well, since you haven’t met, let me

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1087 The Ultimate Hunk

    After finishing his call, Kendrick returned to Annabelle’s side and gently patted her arm. “Anna, let’s go inside and sleep.”Annabelle kept her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.Kendrick didn’t insist. He simply picked her up in his arms and carried her back to the bedroom.That night, Annabelle had a dream that completely shattered her worldview.She dreamed of an incredibly gorgeous man showing up at her house to declare war, claiming that Kendrick was in love with him!Cat-cat Coco jumped onto the man's head and scratched his face. But the man still said, “Even with a scar on my face, I’m still more beautiful than you. Men are visual creatures—that’s why Kendrick loves me.”Then her bestie Julissa suddenly appeared, and Annabelle quickly asked, “Julissa, who’s prettier, me or him?”Julissa stabbed her right in the heart, sighing regretfully. “Anna, to be honest… he is just a tiny bit better looking.”That was the final straw—Annabelle was so mad she woke up.When she did, the

    Anna turned her head to glare at him. "Behave yourself!"Kendrick pressed his lips together and withdrew his wandering hand.Just as he was massaging her back, his phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from Marvin, Kendrick instinctively frowned.Of all times to call, it had to be now!He immediately silenced the ringtone and tossed the phone aside.A moment later, the phone rang again.Anna asked, "Who's calling? Why aren't you answering?""Marvin.""Then it's probably about Linda. Pick up! I really want to know how she's doing."Since Anna had spoken, Kendrick picked up the call.On the other end, Marvin explained Linda's medical condition and even brought up how she still wanted to meet Frost.Marvin said, "If you think it's too much trouble, you don't have to help her anymore. After all, she's fine now."Kendrick replied, "Since I already promised her, I can't go back on my word."If he were to go back on it just because her condition improved, and start judging her life choices,

    "I wasn’t! I was just thinking... if Linda's condition isn’t serious, she might change her mind about a lot of things. That male escort guy tried to negotiate with you, didn’t he? If she doesn’t need him anymore, you won’t have to go through with that, either."Kendrick narrowed his eyes. The more the little woman explained, the more he felt she had some sneaky thoughts going on.Of course, it wasn’t that she wanted to try anything exciting with the escort herself—probably just pure curiosity. She likely wanted to know what a male escort was really like…Still, it was enough to make Kendrick feel a little sour.“Let’s go home first. I’ll ask Marvin later if he still needs me to step in.”…Over on Marvin’s end, he took Linda to the hospital for a full check-up, and the results came out the same day.It wasn’t stomach cancer—just a very severe gastric ulcer.Turns out the small clinic she went to before had likely misdiagnosed her due to limited medical capability.But the doctor warne

    It was obvious—the Young Master was angry.Even Linda didn’t dare say much more. She forced an awkward smile and mumbled, “Then I’ll go get another checkup…”As she said that, she nudged Anna’s hand, testing the waters: “Shall we go?”Annabelle could tell that Linda had been frightened by the cold and aloof Young Master.To be fair, it was her first time seeing this side of him too. She felt a bit guilty—her friend had upset the Young Master.She quickly got up. “Young Master, then we’ll head out first.”The Young Master looked at her. “She can go. Anna, you stay. I have something to tell you.”Anna paused for a second and nodded. “Then I’ll walk Linda out first.”She led Linda out of the lounge.As soon as they stepped out, Linda clung to her arm and whispered, “Anna, your friend is terrifying.”Annabelle gave a weak smile. “He’s not usually like that.”“Maybe he’s only not like that to you… but that Young Master of yours is definitely a dangerous man.”“You can tell just from that?”

    Kendrick paused with the knife in his hand, then resumed cutting the sausage slowly and deliberately.“If you want to say something, just say it. If not, I won’t ask.”Annabelle sighed and felt compelled to explain.She had stayed in a hotel with the young master once, but that was when she was still a child.Kendrick glanced at her and took a bite of sausage, chewing silently.Annabelle felt a little unnerved, like he was chewing on her instead.“Kendrick, could you not look at me like that? It’s creepy.”He stared at her again for a moment, then finally shifted his gaze back to his plate and said coolly,“I thought you hadn’t been back to the city since going to Springvale Temple… Didn’t expect you’d already stayed in a hotel with him when you were that young.”Annabelle quickly added that yes, they stayed in the same hotel suite, but not in the same room, and nothing remotely ambiguous happened.She emphasized her young age—meaning, there couldn’t possibly have been anything improp

    Then he kissed Anna.Ryan pressed his lips together, as if the warmth of Anna’s kiss still lingered.Later, he held her and danced with her on the lawn. She wore a white wedding gown, looking like a fairy—so beautiful he couldn’t take his eyes off her. And in her eyes, there was only him.After the dance, Kendrick came over to offer his congratulations.He said, “Congratulations, Mr. Ryan and Ms. Sanchez. A toast to you both. May you grow old together and have children soon.”Anna responded graciously, “Thank you, Mr. Gregory.”Thinking back, Ryan couldn’t help but smile. That guy wasn’t so annoying in the dream.Then the sky darkened, and the wedding ended. Anna leaned on his shoulder as they returned home in a car—to the garden villa he had bought in Austria.He carried her upstairs, and they made love through the night…As Ryan recalled those vivid yet unreal scenes, he wished—desperately—that the dream was reality, and reality, a dream.It turned out that deep down, all he wanted
