"Yes," Trey smiled. "Mr. Ethan Gregory asked me to take good care of you and Mr. Gregory these days. He won't feel at ease if others come."Annabelle's heart sank. Trey would come all this time...So, she would need to continue sleeping in the cunning Kendrick's room during this period.Annabelle seriously said to Trey, "It's not convenient for you to come and go between two places. We can take care of ourselves. Don't worry.""Not at all," Trey smiled and waved his hand. "I often came to take care of Mr. Gregory before. Please don't overthink it. I have to go now. I'll talk to you later."He left after finishing his words.More words would lead to more mistakes, so it was better to leave now.Annabelle frowned and sat on the dining chair, worried. What should she do?Where should she sleep at night? She couldn't let Kendrick sleep on the sofa all the time.But that was not important. The point was Kendrick had a strong desire for sex. Annabelle felt like a rabbit being brought to a t

Back when Annabelle was humiliated in front of everyone at the engagement party, she wasn't sad, but now, after she was spooked by the little flame, she became like this.It was obvious that she was deeply traumatized by that fire.Kendrick felt sorry for what she had been through and blamed himself for his carelessness."I'm so careless," Kendrick wiped her tears and said. "I won't let you cook again.""I'm fine..."Annabelle composed herself, trying to break free from Kendrick's embrace. Then in the next second, Kendrick held her up and trundled toward the living room."Put me down...""Your legs went limp. Are you sure you can walk?" Kendrick joked.He put Annabelle down on the couch and turned on the TV for her."Wait here. I'll cook. I'll call you when the breakfast is ready. Be good."Kendrick rubbed her head.Annabelle smoothed down her messy hair and watched Kendrick striding into the kitchen.Turning on the stove, Kendrick started making breakfast skillfully.Annabelle stared

Kendrick's face darkened.Kendrick knew about Fabian. Fabian made his first public appearance as a model at the age of 20 and rose to fame.Later, Fabian displayed his extraordinary talent in designing and then established his own brand. At 26, he became a household name, but he was knee-deep in scandals.It turned out Annabelle was into this type of man.As far as Kendrick was concerned, Fabian and Marvin were two peas in a pod."Breakfast is ready," Kendrick said unhappily."OK..."Annabelle grunted, her eyes glued to the TV.When Kendrick noticed Annabelle couldn't move her eyes off Fabian, he felt even more displeased."Do I need to carry you?"Kendrick sat beside Annabelle, slipping his arm around Annabelle's shoulder.Annabelle sprang out of the couch and turned off the TV."I can walk by myself."After breakfast, Kendrick went to the company in a sulk.Annabelle had no idea why Kendrick was suddenly sulking.She thought Kendrick had a bad temper.After Kendrick left, Annabelle

Annabelle hurriedly turned around, turned off the light, and went to bed in a huff.As soon as she lay down, she caught a whiff of ocean from his pillow.She snuggled under his blanket, enveloped in his scent...As if Kendrick was holding her in his arms, Annabelle started to feel her face burning.Annabelle wanted to ask Kendrick to switch pillows and blankets, but she heard Kendrick snoring rhythmically. To her surprise, he was already out like a light.Annabelle had to lay back down and tried her best to fall asleep.Kendrick wasn't asleep. He just couldn't get enough of the fragrance on Annabelle's blanket and was afraid that Annabelle wanted it back.Meanwhile, the thought of his blanket covering Annabelle's body made him very happy.Annabelle tossed and turned on the bed. Kendrick curled on the floor and dozed off till midnight.After a few roars of thunder, the rain poured down. The gale, mixed with rain, blew into the room.Annabelle was awakened by the thunder. When she got u

Annabelle was embarrassed, her face flushed red.She didn't know she had a habit of sleep-talking.Annabelle took a deep breath and explained seriously, "I felt cold.""It's OK. I don't mind."Kendrick smiled and sat up. Then he got out of bed calmly.After Kendrick disappeared into the bathroom, Annabelle buried her head under the blanket.In her dream, she did take the initiative to hug the white fox. She also rubbed herself against it...When Annabelle thought she mistook Kendrick as the white fox last night, she felt very uncomfortable.Annabelle had an extremely awkward breakfast with Kendrick.Not until Kendrick went to the company did Annabelle remember to go to Springvale Temple.Before she headed out, she left Kendrick a note: "I went to Springvale Temple. I'll be back tonight."It was rare for Kendrick not to work overtime nor to have dinner parties, so he reached home at 5 p.m.He found the note as soon as he entered the house."Springvale Temple? Why didn't she tell me in

Annabelle wore a pair of blue wide-leg jeans and a white casual shirt with a high ponytail tied up behind her head. It was pleasant to the eyes.She didn't wear a mask or a veil. Marvin thought her eyes were exceptionally bewitching.Marvin came here to pay tribute to her mother. He was reluctant at first, but after he met the woman he yearned for, his mood was immediately lifted.Marvin walked toward Annabelle in big strides.He said, "Should we reintroduce ourselves?"That day, Marvin ran into Annabelle by the lake and flirted with her on purpose. Later, he found out that she was the fiancée that he abandoned in front of everyone.Marvin felt humiliated and regretted it.Thus, he made up his mind to win her back.Annabelle frowned. "I don't think it's necessary."Marvin was upset when he realized that Annabelle didn't care for it."You recognized me, but you pretended to be a stranger. Was it to get back at me?""I didn't pretend. You just didn't recognize me."Annabelle wanted to w

When Annabelle found out she was being photographed, she tensed up.If the photos of her and Marvin were posted online, there would be very nasty rumors.Even though Kendrick and Annabelle would soon divorce, she didn't want to get him into trouble for this stupid mistake.Thinking of it, Annabelle became desperate. She couldn't wait to get rid of the troublesome Marvin."Alright, I've forgiven you. Can I go now?" she asked.Marvin was smart enough to tell that Annabelle was being perfunctory. When she was about to turn around, he suddenly hugged her.It exasperated Annabelle, so she stomped on his foot and pushed him away."I'm your sister-in-law now. Please behave yourself!"However, Marvin felt like hugging her for longer.He was intoxicated by her slender and soft body and her hair that exuded some elegant herbal fragrance.And most importantly, Annabelle was unlike any other woman Marvin had ever met.Compared with Annabelle, those women were simply mediocre and vulgar.Marvin de

Kendrick just shrugged and left with his arm around Annabelle.Watching them walk away side by side, Marvin felt more indignant.But he was not powerful enough to fight Kendrick, nor could he get Annabelle back for now. He threw away the umbrella in a huff and got into the car."Let's go back. Our first stop is Stellar Bar," he said to the driver in a low voice.In the meantime, Annabelle and Kendrick walked to the parking lot of Springvale Temple, sharing an umbrella.Kendrick asked faintly, "Why did you come to the mountains?"But in his heart, he wondered, "Did she and Marvin meet by chance or by appointment? If I hadn't come, would she have taken his car?"But Kendrick was too self-conscious to ask directly. He didn't want to sound like a jealous whiny man.Annabelle waved the painting before his eyes and smiled, "I heard that Ethan liked paintings of this style, so I asked a friend for one. It's a gift for him."Kendrick narrowed his eyes and nodded.It was a bit cruel to tell he

The lighting in the home theater was dim. The plush double leather recliner could be laid flat to form a small double bed. But it wasn’t an actual bed—any movement on it caused it to creak.Annabelle didn’t dare to move much, but Kendrick was unbothered. Holding her by the waist and brushing his lips against hers, he chuckled lowly, “What are you afraid of? It won’t collapse.”She looked at him, the corners of her eyes still wet from tears shed during the movie. She was actually quite tired today. She also remembered explaining just last night that during their efforts to conceive, they shouldn’t be too frequent. But knowing he’d be leaving that night, she couldn’t help but hold him tightly—and soon stopped thinking about anything else.Afterward, Annabelle lay in Kendrick’s arms, a thin blanket draped over her.They lay in silence for a while before Kendrick gently stroked her arm and asked, “Feeling better now?”Annabelle smiled softly but then became suspicious. She half-sat up and

Annabelle nodded glumly. “Then at least message me when you land tomorrow.”“I will,” Kendrick said, patting her thigh gently. “Don’t worry. I’ll keep reporting in to my wife.”Annabelle quickly pushed his hand away. “Keep your hands on the wheel.”Kendrick withdrew his hand but gave her a long, affectionate look, a small smile playing on his lips.That night, after returning home, Annabelle stuck to the plan and made beef noodles.The beef had already been braised by Uncle Trey. All she had to do was boil enough noodles for two and pour the meat and broth on top.Even someone not too skilled in the kitchen like her could pull that off.Once the food was ready, Annabelle didn’t have much of an appetite. She only ate a few strands of noodles and sipped a bit of soup.Kendrick’s bowl, on the other hand, was much more lavish—noodles topped with generous slices of beef, two stalks of greens, and a fried egg she’d made just for him.Looking at the hearty meal before him, Kendrick grinned.
I wish it were you Chapter 1008 Becoming a Clingy Baby
“You guys actually fought before?” Annabelle asked in surprise.Kendrick chuckled. “I was the one who beat him up.”He went on to explain that Sean was Uncle Trey’s little nephew. When Sean was in elementary school, no one looked after him during summer breaks, so Uncle Trey would bring him to the Gregory residence to stay for a couple of months. Back then, Sean was like a stubborn little ox. If Uncle Trey said one thing, he’d argue right back. One time, Kendrick happened to overhear and gave him a good beating. After that, he became much more obedient.Later, when Sean started middle school, he stopped coming around. Years passed, and Kendrick only heard from Uncle Trey in passing that Sean had opened a gym.Come to think of it, it had been over a decade since he’d seen the guy—no wonder he didn’t recognize him at first.Hearing all this, Annabelle couldn’t help but marvel at how small the world was, and how fate worked in strange ways. At the same time, she felt a sense of relief.S
I wish it were you Chapter 1007 Listen to My Explanation
Just thinking about her photo being stored on that man’s phone made Annabelle feel extremely uncomfortable.Especially when he said he’d “treasure” her photo with that flirty, ambiguous expression—it made her deeply irritated.God knows what he plans to do with that picture. She didn’t even want to imagine it.“Delete my photo. Now.”“Alright, alright, I’ll delete it when I get back,” Sean dodged casually. “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Go on and wait for your husband. I’m heading out.”He turned as if to walk into the rain, but suddenly paused and looked back at her.“Oh right—earlier this afternoon, I overheard a young model downstairs on the phone. She said something like, ‘I don’t want to go too far. After all, I have no grudge against Annabelle.’”Annabelle frowned. “Which model?”“Think her name was Dale.” Sean paused. “I don’t really know what she meant, but it didn’t sound good. Don’t you have that runway show tomorrow? Just be careful.”With that, he waved and jogged off i

“I didn’t!” Annabelle responded immediately.“Then why do you look like you just did something bad?”Annabelle didn’t expect him to see through her that easily. With no other choice, she confessed everything.“Really, it’s nothing. I just ran into the Young Master earlier, and he helped me out with something. I was afraid you’d be upset if I told you.”But she *definitely* didn’t do anything to betray him. Besides, she felt completely open and honest when facing the Young Master—nothing to feel guilty about.Kendrick’s gaze darkened slightly. “What did he help you with?”Annabelle sighed. Since she’d started explaining, she decided to tell him everything.“Some people were talking behind my back, and I overheard it. I wanted to confront them, but just then the Young Master showed up and stepped in for me.”Kendrick stared straight ahead, silent for a couple of seconds before asking, “How did he ‘step in’?”“He pretended to be my lawyer...”Annabelle recounted what happened, then cauti

Ryan lowered his hand, slid it into his pocket, and the smile at the corner of his lips gradually faded. He said calmly:"In the future, if you ever run into a situation like that again, be more careful. The corridor earlier had barely anyone around and was in a camera blind spot. If those girls really wanted to gang up on you, how could you handle the three of them alone?"Anna gave an awkward smile. "I was just too angry and acted impulsively. I didn’t think it through. Thank you for helping me earlier."Ryan gave a slight smile. "No need to thank me. We... are friends, after all."Anna nodded earnestly, then suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Young Master, I saw an old photo in a magazine just now. It was of a little kid, probably five or six years old, and he looked a lot like you."Ryan’s brows furrowed slightly. His fingers clenched tightly in his pocket, but he quickly forced a smile. "Really? Which magazine was it?""It was a finance magazine, right there on
I wish it were you Chapter 1004 Enough Is Enough
The article described Ryan, the president of the the Whitney Group, known as "Mr. Whitney"—the latest heir of the Whitney family. Due to poor health in his youth, he was once sent abroad by his uncle to recover in a sanatorium.No one expected this seemingly forgotten heir to return with massive capital and directly replace his uncle as the new president of the the Whitney Group.To this day, this capable young president has never appeared in the public eye, nor has his appearance been revealed. Some say he’s ugly, others say he’s handsome. The mystery surrounding him only fuels more curiosity.Recently, someone obtained a childhood photo of him from his uncles. Judging by that photo, Mr. Whitney was likely a good-looking child.Annabelle stared blankly at the photo after reading the description. The boy in the picture looked about five or six years old. Though he wore a smile, his eyes were melancholic, and his expression was restrained—the kind of smile that felt heavy.What shocked

After Jaime left, Kendrick picked up his phone and left a comment under the most trending post:“I actually wish you wouldn’t try so hard. Rely on me a little more, and maybe you wouldn’t fall so many times. ”He tagged Anna’s account.This was his genuine reaction after watching the video compilations.The moment he posted it, it instantly became a hot topic.Although Kendrick rarely used his social media—mostly posting formal content about events or appearances—he was still a massive influencer with a huge following.His comment quickly gained thousands of likes and drew tons of replies from fans and netizens.“In a lover’s eyes, there’s no embarrassment, only heartache.”“She’s working so hard. Shame on the brainless haters!”“So what if she’s pretty and married to a rich, handsome guy? Not jealous at all!

Annabelle turned back. "What is it?"Kendrick looked into her eyes. "Anna, you don’t need to be afraid of anything."Just that one simple sentence filled Annabelle’s heart with a warmth only he could bring.So, he had understood all those hidden feelings she hadn’t even voiced.She withdrew her hand from the door handle and bit her lip. "Sometimes I wonder… taking on such a major brand endorsement—am I overestimating myself?""Why would you think that?"Anna’s gaze drifted past the car window, through the hotel lobby’s glass facade, and onto the people inside."Look at them. All the girls sitting in there are exceptional. They’ve worked incredibly hard to get a spot at Lin’s press conference. And me… I’ve only had a little over a month of crash training..."Kendrick sighed, gently brushing his hand over her cheek. He told her those girls were excellent models. After all, only the best in the industry get to walk in a Murphy Jewelry show.But that didn’t mean they were fit to be the br
