Chapter 192 Waiting for Him to Arrive
Last Updated:
2025-01-18 18:01:52Annabelle 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. Annabelle the

Annabelle also didn't know why she had to lie and deceive him, saying that the bouquet of flowers was a gift from her boss.Just thinking, Kendrick would definitely be very unhappy if he knew that the flowers were sent by the young master.Kendrick took the flowers from Kamila's hand and handed them to Annabelle, saying, "Here, take these."After saying that, he turned around and showed her his back again.Annabelle lowered her gaze and, with one hand holding onto something and the other clutching his shoulder, she once again leaned on his back.Kamila watched the backs of the two people leaving and sighed enviously.I wish I had a caring older brother like that...She was about to return to the auditorium when she happened to see Gauge walking out."Didn't you watch the performance?" Kamila asked."Well, it's nothing special," Gauge said as he walked down the stairs. After taking a couple of steps, he turned back to Kam

"You, hurry up and take your medicine, stop talking."Annabelle was so angry that her voice became hoarse. She turned her face away and refused to look at Kendrick anymore.Now she couldn't look directly into Kendrick's eyes anymore, because whenever she met his gaze, she felt like she wasn't wearing any clothes...After giving Annabelle her medicine, Kendrick carried her back to her own room, but Annabelle never looked into his eyes."Rest early."Annabelle lay on the bed, facing away from him, and waved her hand.Kendrick glanced at her deeply and closed the door.He had noticed long ago that Annabelle was shy. She didn't dare to look at him at all. Her small face, about the size of a palm, turned pink, which was very cute and made him feel a little better.After arriving on the first floor, Kendrick dialed his father's phone number."Father, I have returned from the mountains," Kendrick reported."Is your grand

On Annabelle's side, although she returned to the room and got on the bed, she did not feel sleepy.After Kendrick returned to her room, she limped downstairs.The bouquet that the young master gave her, she hadn't put it in a vase yet. She's afraid the flowers will wilt severely if she waits until tomorrow to do so.Just now Kendrick was here, she didn't want to bother him, and also because discussing the topic of him helping her change her underwear made her so embarrassed that she wished she could hide in a hole.So I sneaked down here just now, thinking of simply tidying up the bouquet of flowers before going to sleep.To Annabelle's surprise, Kendrick had already unwrapped the packaging and had placed the flowers in a vase.That annoying sense of guilt once again emerged from Annabelle's heart.If Kendrick knew that the person who was sending her flowers was about to take her away from him, would Kendrick still do these things?

Annabelle was afraid of pain, so she immediately backed away and stared at Kendrick, saying, "Why did you pull my hair?""Where did you go and for how many days?"Kendrick let go, but the low air pressure made Annabelle feel suffocated."Stonebay Resort, three days."After spending so much time together, Annabelle now knows better and tries her best not to provoke Kendrick, so she answers very quickly."Understood, stay safe."Annabelle blinked her eyes and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that they didn't want to stop her. Phew, what a false alarm.After Annabelle left the study, Kendrick made a phone call to Jaime: "I will be going out for the next three days. I have a meeting with a business partner the day after tomorrow. I will inform the vice president and you should cooperate fully. As for other trivial matters, I will handle them after the Golden Week is over.""Yes, President.""Also, book me a p

Annabelle slowly walked into the lake, gently paddled her arms, and swam freely and joyfully like a happy fish.Kamila was not good at swimming, and combined with her poor figure, she didn't like wearing revealing clothes. At the moment, she was lying on a wicker chair by the lake, sipping on some juice and enjoying the gentle breeze. It was quite pleasant.Until she heard someone approaching, she slightly opened her eyes and realized it was Gauge."Hi!"Gauge nodded in response and then took off his bathrobe, stepping into the lake. Kamila watched Gauge's well-proportioned and muscular figure and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.Tsk tsk tsk, it's a pity this guy didn't become a model.Then she pinched the flesh on her stomach and for the N+1th time, she felt the urge to lose weight.Immediately, she saw Gauge swimming towards Annabelle.Kamila immediately felt that the two of them were a perfect match and quickly took out

As the time underwater increased, Annabelle began to feel a slight tightness in her chest.She didn't know how long she could hold on, but when she looked at Gauge, she realized that he was completely fine.Is this person a fish?Not only Annabelle was anxious, but Kamila on the shore was also panicking at the moment. They have been underwater for so long without resurfacing, could it be... that they are dead?But fortunately, the pool water was clear, and Kamila could see that both of them were still moving, so she restrained herself from calling for help.In the distance, Kendrick had already used a telescope, and his temples were pounding.As soon as Kendrick saw Gauge also entering the lake just now, he couldn't sit still.Later, watching them swim to the other side of the lake together, I realized that the two of them were probably competing, which made me even more bitter.The two of them had elegant swimming styles, with

Annabelle came to the hot spring area alone, chose an empty pool, walked in, and then comfortably closed her eyes.Not long after, other classmates also arrived.There were several more people in the pool, including both girls and boys. Annabelle looked around and noticed that there were still several empty pools. She wondered why everyone had to squeeze together with her.If she were to get up and change pools now, it wouldn't be impossible, but it would seem very impolite, as if she were disdainful of her classmates.So she moved a little away from others.Gauge didn't go into the pool because he didn't like sharing the pool with others. So he sat on a chair nearby, listening to music, planning to have a snack and then go back to his own suite.He lived in a small detached villa with a private courtyard, which had his own private hot spring pool. Actually, he could have gone straight back to his room, but he couldn't help but walk over to

Agatha’s face turned deathly pale. “Dereon, I didn’t!”Sid let out a cold snort. “At first, when we didn’t see Annabelle, you tried to seduce Kendrick directly. You wanted to sleep with him, then turn around and cling to him as his mistress, living a worry-free life, didn’t you?”Agatha shook her head in panic, glancing between Sid and Dereon. “No, I didn’t. That’s not true.”She anxiously grabbed Dereon’s arm. “Dereon, don’t listen to his nonsense. I was just thinking, if I could seduce Kendrick and sleep with him first, then when he dies, it would solidify the story that he forced himself on a waitress!”“If it were that easy, why would we wait until today to act?” Dereon stepped closer to her. “That Kendrick, like the young master, has long been bewitched by Annabelle and doesn’t even glance at other women. That’s why I arranged for you to hide in the room and fake the scene after he died.”Just mentioning Annabelle ignited a fire in Dereon’s chest.What Kendrick thought of Annabel
I wish it were you Chapter 1029 Let’s Eat Here
Annabelle walked out of the bedroom and came over to the dining table, standing in front of Kendrick.Kendrick was cutting into a plate of German sausage and hadn’t started eating yet. He looked up at her and smiled, “Why are you back again? Don’t want me to eat?”Caught red-handed, Annabelle felt a little embarrassed.Still, she reached out, took his hand, and set down the knife. “How about… you lie down with me for a bit first, and then I’ll eat with you?”Kendrick looked at her, amusement flickering in his eyes.His gaze made her face flush with heat, and even her breathing grew unsteady.“Anna, if you want the ox to work, you have to feed it first.”Her cheeks turned even redder. “That’s not what I meant…”Laughing, Kendrick pulled her into his arms, settling her on his lap. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he said, “After sleeping in the same bed for so many days, if I still can’t tell what you want, wouldn’t that be a waste of all that sleep?”He whispered the last part again
I wish it were you Chapter 1028 Is She That Pretty?
Kendrick sighed against her shoulder, clearly reluctant, but still got out of bed, buttoned up his shirt, and went to open the door.Annabelle followed him out, intending to grab a glass of water.As the door opened, she glanced over—turns out it really was room service.A male staff member was pushing a food cart, and a female staff member stood in front of it, holding a dry-cleaned suit in her arms.“Mr. Gregory, sorry to disturb you. This is the breakfast you ordered, and your clothes have been cleaned as well,” the female staff member said in a gentle, soft-spoken voice.Annabelle couldn’t help but glance at her. The woman was wearing a red hotel uniform skirt set, with an alluring figure, good looks, and a refined demeanor—clearly more polished than the average staff member.Normally, Annabelle would appreciate a pretty girl with a quick glance and move on.But this woman made her frown—and made her stay in the living room instead of heading back to the bedroom after finishing he
I wish it were you Chapter 1027 They Might Hear Us
Annabelle’s face flushed bright red.What the VP was implying—any adult could understand.She could feel the ambiguous gazes of the others, making her even more embarrassed.Kendrick gave a cold “tsk” and glanced at his vice president. “If you can’t come up with a good idea later, I’m holding you responsible.”“lol, no problem!”he replied heartily.Kendrick looked at Annabelle and smiled. “Come on, I’ll take you to the room.”He took her hand and led her into the bedroom.Once the door closed, Annabelle hurriedly explained, “I didn’t know you were in a meeting—mmph…”Before she could finish, Kendrick had already pinned her against the door, capturing her lips in a deep, heated kiss.Annabelle couldn’t handle such intensity and felt like she was suffocating. She lightly patted his shoulder, signaling him to stop.Kendrick pulled back just slightly, his lips still brushing hers as he whispered, “Anna, I’m really happy you came to see me.”She lowered her head, biting her lip, but he gen
I wish it were you Chapter 1026 Sudden Attack
Dereon wore a black baseball cap, head down, looking rushed as he headed toward the boarding gate.He was about to board a flight to North City.His phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he answered, “Young Master, I’m about to board… understood…”At that moment, a familiar figure brushed past him. Dereon paused, frowning as he turned to look back.The crowd was bustling with passengers preparing to board. That fleeting figure was now nowhere to be seen. Had he imagined it?But even if it really was Annabelle, she was walking in the opposite direction of the boarding line, which meant she wasn’t getting on this flight.As long as she didn’t interfere, everything would be fine.He continued the call, “Yes, I’m listening, Young Master… Don’t worry. Tomorrow morning, just wait and watch the news.”After hanging up, he proceeded with the check-in process alongside the crowd.Dereon had booked an economy class ticket. Once on the plane, he turned off his phone and began mentally reviewing ev
I wish it were you Chapter 1025 The Darkness Before Dawn
Julissa curled herself into the blanket.For Scott, that bar was the place they first met—perhaps even where he fell in love with her at first sight. It was a beautiful memory.But for Julissa, it remained a grey area she had never managed to escape.Whenever she thought about how a stranger had taken her to a hotel that night, how she had lost her virginity there, and might have even been photographed or recorded, her scalp tingled with regret and dread.She used to want revenge on that gigolo, but now, the thing she feared most was encountering him again.She just hoped that incident would stay buried in the past, never to be mentioned again.She held up her left hand in front of her eyes, using the moonlight streaming through the window to look at the ring Scott had given her. She really liked him—loved him—and she hoped he would never find out about that foolish mistake she had made...After leaving the bedroom, Scott went to the dining room. He poured himself half a glass of whis
I wish it were you Chapter 1024 Then Don’t Say It
Julissa looked at him timidly, seemingly wanting to comfort him but not knowing where to start.She bit her lip and carefully asked, “Did you have a fight with Auntie?”“You heard something?”Julissa’s eyes became even more nervous. “Mr. Nichols, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop. Please don’t be mad…”Only then did Scott realize that he had sounded a bit harsh due to his anxiety, and it had clearly scared her.“Fool, I’m not blaming you.” He pulled Julissa into his arms. “What did you hear?”“I just heard you say that when Julian had a high fever as a child, you took him to get an IV and stuff…”Scott let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like Julissa had only heard the latter part.As long as she didn’t hear the earlier part.Earlier, when he arrived at the apartment building, he had deliberately tricked her, saying he wasn’t coming back, just to play a joke on her—but he ended up scaring her to tears.That’s when he realized that Julissa had been hurt before by Liam and lacked a sense of se
I wish it were you Chapter 1023 Don’t Be Too Bold
Julissa immediately said, “I’ve got a great memory, Mr. Nichols, so don’t you go back on your word.”“I won’t. I’ll give it to you in a bit.”Julissa had been eagerly waiting for so long, but he was still teasing her. She wasn’t happy about that. “Mr. Nichols, if your ‘little surprise’ isn’t worth at least a few hundred thousand, you’ll owe me big time for all this waiting.”Scott chuckled, “Isn’t that a bit low of a bar? Just a few hundred thousand is enough?”Julissa ignored him. To a capitalist like him, money was just a meaningless number—completely irrational. What she really wanted to know now was: what exactly was this surprise gift?Since he said he’d give it to her later, it had to be a physical item.“Mr. Nichols, just let me see it now, please? Why wait? I’ve been waiting all night!”But no matter how she pouted or pleaded, Scott stayed calm and composed. He simply said, “Be good. I’ll give it to you once we’re in bed.”Julissa started wondering—what kind of gift could only
I wish it were you Chapter 1022 He Knows No Restraint
Julissa cast a sidelong glance at the takeout bags. One large box of fried chicken, two cans of premixed peach cocktails—her favorite—and… a bowl of Frozen yogurt?Wait. Frozen yogurt?She remembered eyeing it longingly when they passed that shop on the way home. She hadn’t said a word though, especially once Mr. Nichols had already driven past. She hadn’t had the heart to ask him to turn back.But clearly, he’d noticed.Looking at Scott again, the fury in her heart had significantly waned.He pulled out the yogurt and looked at her with an arched brow. “Not eating, huh?”Julissa huffed and turned her head away dramatically.As if she'd surrender to the wicked capitalist for just a bowl of yogurt.Scott shrugged, “Guess I’ll eat it, then. Can’t let it melt. Would be a waste.”She rolled her eyes inwardly. As if he—Mr. Perfectionist—would ever stoop to eating something as common as a street snack.But then… he actually started eating it.Julissa's brows furrowed as she peeked at him. H
