2025-01-16 18:04:59Annabelle's eyes lit up: "Weren't you uninterested in acting?"
She remembered that many girls had come to find Gauge before, wanting him to participate in the show together, but he had refused and said he wasn't interested.
Gauge pursed his lips and said, "Even if it's just a friendly support, isn't Kamila also quite regretful?"
That's true to say, the song was adapted by Kamila, and she put a lot of effort into it. It ended up being aborted like this, and she is very regretful.
Annabelle saw it all and hoped to help her bring the melody to life.
"We need to practice as soon as possible, I'm not sure if we can cooperate well."
Gauge laughed after listening, "When have we ever not worked well together?"
Annabelle smiled and realized that when she had previously sought advice from Gauge on classical harp playing techniques, they had also tried playing some pieces together and had coordinated well.
Therefore, Gauge didn't think ab

But Mr. Gregory still suppressed the sourness in his heart, and lightly tugged at the corners of his mouth, managing to squeeze out a smile."Okay, very good. I wish you a successful performance."He knew that he couldn't stop her.He watched Annabelle from the beginning, unwilling to go on stage to perform, to later actively preparing, from being excited and elated after being selected, to feeling nervous and anxious as the performance approached.Kendrick saw everything.He knew that Annabelle cherished this opportunity to perform and was filled with anticipation. Since it was something she loved doing, he should fully support her and not be jealous.Annabelle looked at his ugly smile and the words that seemed to be gritted through his teeth, and instantly felt a chill run down her spine.This man was possessive and jealous, he must have been unhappy.Why suddenly do I have an ominous premonition that an old fox is up to misc

"Why?" Seamus asked, puzzled.Kendrick said lightly, "She didn't want her classmates to know about our relationship.""Kendrick, were you so humble?"Kendrick frowned unhappily, turned off the speaker, and picked up his phone. "Is there anything else?"Afterwards, Seamus said something else that Annabelle didn't hear, but Kendrick also quickly hung up the phone.Annabelle glared at him with a gloomy face.Kendrick walked past her, paused for a moment, and smiled as he patted her shoulder. "Don't be nervous, it's okay. Even if the performance goes wrong, your husband won't make fun of you."Annabelle's cosmos exploded."How did you know that I would mess up the performance?""You have only been learning for a few days, it's normal to feel nervous on stage and make mistakes. It's okay, don't worry."Kendrick's tone was like that of an older brother encouraging his impulsive younger sister, and when he mentioned the

Kendrick's gaze was so intense that it inexplicably made Annabelle feel suffocated.It was even more uncomfortable than standing on stage and being stared at by ten thousand people individually, causing the eyelashes to tremble involuntarily."It's just me, are you still nervous?"Annabelle furrowed her brows and calmly said, "I wasn't nervous."His gaze was too audacious, as if he could devour her completely at any moment, making her feel a little uneasy.Kendrick smiled, didn't say anything, changed his sitting position, and forcefully suppressed the restless thoughts in his mind, playing the role of an audience member properly.Annabelle had already brought over a wooden dining chair, stepped onto a professional footstool, embraced a classical guitar, and was ready.Then she lifted those captivating beautiful eyes, glanced lightly at Kendrick, and curled her lips as if saying, "Old fox, listen to me carefully."The piece to

Annabelle's face turned red all of a sudden, followed by a joyful expression reminiscent of a little girl."Is it really that good-looking? Then I'll wear it." After saying that, she tilted her chin at Kendrick, lifted her skirt, and briskly walked upstairs.Kendrick squinted as he watched her leave. This rabbit has been provoking frequently lately, is she too confident?The next morning, Kendrick dressed in black casual attire and went out.Annabelle sat in the restaurant eating breakfast, watching him get on the car and leave, she tapped her forehead in confusion.Today's old fox was a little different.He usually drives a Maybach to the company, but today he drove a Land Rover and was dressed casually, so it's definitely not for going to the company. He also didn't carry a bag in his hand, so it doesn't seem like he's going on a long trip.If I were to go and find a friend, it wouldn't be possible either, as it was only seven o'clo
Last Updated : 2025-01-17I wish it were you Chapter 190 Mr. Gregory felt jealous
Gauge looked confused and said, "I don't know."Annabelle thought for a moment, perhaps Gauge was less interested in the affairs of the celebrity circle.She had also long noticed that Gauge was not interested in the things that rich second-generation individuals were passionate about. He himself had also mentioned that he had only two hobbies, music and swimming.This is somewhat similar to Annabelle, as she also likes these two things."Actually, he was me..."However, before Annabelle could finish speaking, Gauge interjected, "I heard it was your brother?""Hmm?""What Kamila said."Annabelle embarrassedly grabbed her hair and inwardly regretted, she shouldn't have casually said that Kendrick was her brother, it would have been better to just say he was a regular friend.At this moment, Gauge looked at the time and the program schedule, and said, "Let's go, it's time to go backstage and prepare."So, the topic

The camera immediately switched, refocusing on the stage, and Kendrick no longer had the same mood to listen to the performance."Go to Elfhedge University immediately, as fast as possible," he said to the driver.Kendrick knew that he couldn't be mistaken. The person who flashed by in the camera just now was Ryan.Why was Ryan in the auditorium? Was there another assassination plot against him?They still came to take Annabelle away...Finally, Annabelle saw the young master she had been longing for. What choice would she make? Would she immediately throw herself into the arms of that man?Kendrick felt as if Annabelle was drifting away from him...On the stage.Annabelle and Gauge had already finished the performance.The last note gradually faded away, and there was silence in the auditorium. Annabelle felt a moment of uneasiness, but soon there was a burst of enthusiastic applause from the audience.At this mo

Annabelle searched eagerly for the young master's figure while walking out of the hall.Unfortunately, she didn't see the young master even until she left the auditorium.Since the young master had come to watch the performance and even gave her flowers, why didn't he wait for her?With a heart full of doubts, Annabelle ran along the corridor towards the school entrance.She felt that the young master might have left, so she chased after him towards the direction of the gate, and she was definitely right.It was already autumn at this time. Annabelle was only wearing a dress, and when the night wind blew, she couldn't help but shiver.Today, for the performance, she wore a pair of high heels, but she was not used to it. After walking for a while, her feet started to ache unbearably. The ankle that she had sprained a while ago also began to throb faintly.But Annabelle endured the pain and limped forward.Suddenly, the phone emi

Annabelle really didn't move anymore.Because she sensed that Kendrick's mood was off and remembered that he had left in the morning with a heavy heart, she worried that something had happened.After holding him for a while, Annabelle felt that Kendrick's breathing had calmed down a bit, so she asked, "What happened?"Kendrick fell silent for a moment and said, "I went to the auditorium to look for you just now, but you weren't there. I was a little worried."I was just worried about her...Annabelle had just wanted to tell him that the reason she ran out was because the teacher who taught her medical skills had arrived. She had followed the young master out, but unfortunately, she didn't catch up.But as the words reached her lips, Annabelle swallowed them back.She seemed to have no need to tell Kendrick about these things regarding the young master.After holding her for a while, Kendrick finally let go of her.

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.

“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! (fake smile emoji)”…Meanwhile, Annabelle was in the dressing room, waiting for the rehearsal to start.Someone tapped her on the shoulder. She turned and saw one of the models

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
