While they chatted over dinner, Julissa—now with food in her stomach and no longer flustered—took the initiative to talk about what had just happened.

Bringing up those two old perverts still made her skin crawl, and she spoke with no small amount of indignation. Fortunately, they’d already been escorted off the train and handed over to the local police station.

That was all thanks to the kind stranger who had stepped in to help.

Scott took off his disposable gloves and dabbed the corners of his mouth with a napkin. He said he hadn’t planned on discussing upsetting things during a meal, but since she brought it up, he’d fill her in on what happened to those two men.

He had already sent a lawyer to handle the situation. Their actions were vile and constituted a criminal offense. Even though the crime wasn’t fully carried out, it was still an attempted offense and violated the law.

Through legal channels, Scott would make sure those two paid the price for what they’d done.

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1500 She’s Here

    Kendrick’s words brought a sense of ease to Annabelle’s heart.Back when they didn’t know each other, both had encountered seemingly suitable partners—but neither had been moved. Perhaps that too, was a kind of fate.Kendrick then added that if she ever met Lena in the future, she didn’t need to feel awkward, because Lena never truly liked him.Lena had chased after him only because she was deeply infatuated with Anthony. At certain angles, Kendrick resembled him. To her, he was nothing more than a stand-in.Annabelle nodded. Since Anthony and Lena had loved each other, it was hard to understand why they had separated back then.Kendrick said that was exactly what he wanted to tell her.Anthony and Lena had actually made it all the way to the wedding stage, but on the very day of the ceremony, Anthony ran away, making Lena a laughingstock.Later, when Lena found him, she caught him fooling around with another woman, having missed the wedding entirely. Once exposed, he didn’t even both

    Kendrick chuckled, a hint of disdain in his tone. “What about me then?”“You’re okay too, I guess.”“‘Okay’?” Kendrick repeated her words, threateningly. “You think just because you’re pregnant, I can’t touch you?”Annabelle cockily said, “The little one isn’t fully formed yet. What exactly are you planning to do?”Kendrick gave her a firm pinch. She gasped and glared at him, but he ignored her.“Still not telling the truth?” He bit her neck lightly. “Are you trying to test my patience?”“There’s a baby…”“Survival of the fittest. If the little one’s tough enough, he’ll survive.”“…” Annabelle felt like he’d gone completely insane.And he wasn’t just threatening with words—Kendrick was already taking action.Annabelle felt like someone who’d been parched for days. She wanted to push him away, but didn’t have the strength or will.“Still not talking?”She shivered—she knew he wasn’t joking anymore. And considering how long he’d been holding back, she feared once he started, he wouldn’t

    Kendrick turned slightly, “Still awake?”The petite woman softly responded, “Mhm.”“Thought it through?”She chuckled lightly. “I just didn’t want to see you suffer…”“What do you plan to do then?” His voice grew hoarse, not stopping that tender and considerate hand that was wandering.“I can help you…”Her voice was soft and gentle, almost making Kendrick lose all control.After a moment, Kendrick still held her hand in place, unwilling to let Anna exhaust herself just to make him feel better.The doctor had told her to get enough rest, and Kendrick didn’t want to get another earful from Dr. colson.He took a deep breath, turned over, pulled her into a hug, and kissed her forehead. “Be good. I can hold it. Sleep now.”“But if you’re like this… how can I sleep?”“Distract yourself. It'll pass soon.”If she kept messing around, it’d only get worse.The little woman fell asleep quickly, her breathing soon becoming steady. Kendrick watched her by the moonlight, eyes burning like a wolf s

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1497 Tonight, Then

    Julissa thought for a moment and said, “I want to have a little farm. I’d feed chickens, sheep, and pigs every day. Next to the farm, there’d be a vegetable patch where I could pick whatever I want to eat straight from the ground. And I want a melon field too—so I can eat all the melons I want every summer.”Scott rested his chin lightly on the top of her head. “No wonder my dad likes you. He’s been thinking about starting a farm too, but more for taking in animals abandoned by their kind—a bit of a charity thing.”After hearing that, Julissa couldn't help but sigh, “Uncle is amazing.”Scott gave a little snort, slightly bitter. “Well, ever since he tossed the company to me, he’s finally found his purpose in life.”“And you, Mr. Nichols?”“What?”“Have you found your purpose in life?”Scott fell silent, and Julissa waited quietly.She’d often wondered what a man like him, powerful and driven, truly wanted deep down inside.After a while, Scott said to her, “After I met you, I found it

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 1496 A Different Side of Mr. Nichols

    It was the first time Julissa had seen Mr. Nichols looking so weak and vulnerable. She pressed her lips together, trying hard not to laugh. At this moment, she was the textbook definition of a smug little victor.As for whether Scott would get back at her later—Julissa wasn't afraid at all.If he dared to bully her, she'd just cry. Once she cried, her eyes would swell up, and when his father saw that, he'd scold him.At the same time, she also found Scott’s father surprisingly kind. It was their first meeting, and yet he’d sided with her so readily—it truly caught her off guard.Of course, perhaps it was because she resembled Scott’s late younger sister…But then, why did Scott’s mother dislike her so much? Could it be that she, too, saw some resemblance to Sophia, and seeing her only stirred up painful memories?After Scott got a thorough scolding, Scott’s father explained to the two of them that he had to go out for a bit and would return around 3 p.m. They would have a proper dinne

    This time, no one came to disturb them.Scott pulled the curtains shut and took her on the luxurious concubine chair. But that chair was too small, so he lifted her onto the large sofa they had been using earlier, and they both tumbled onto the carpet.They were like two little beasts chasing and playfully tussling, one chasing while the other dodged, biting and tangling.When things reached their peak, Julissa tried to grab something, her hand sweeping across the coffee table, knocking the tablet onto the floor. Later, her knee accidentally pressed onto the tablet on the carpet.Scott stopped, picked up the tablet, and looked at it with a helpless smile. "Miss Hickman, you're really something.""What happened?" Julissa opened her eyes and looked at him, still not fully conscious, her mind floating in the air.Scott put the tablet down and leaned in again. "You deleted an important document of mine.""Can it be recovered?" Julissa immediately became alert, feeling a bit uneasy."It's
