After eating porridge, Annabelle felt a little thirsty. Kendrick helped her by handing her a glass of water and considerately placed a straw for her, preventing her from not being able to see it and drink properly.
However, after consuming the porridge and water, it didn't take long for Annabelle to sadly realize that she needed to use the restroom.
She pursed her lips and said, "Kendrick, could you please call the nurse in?"
"What happened?"
She bit her lip again, finding it difficult to speak.
"You went and called, that's all."
Kendrick squinted his eyes and looked at her, "Anna, did you want to go to the bathroom?"
Did Annabelle blush? Was her expression so obvious?
"So you quickly went to call the nurse, or the caregiver would do."
Kendrick laughed and said, "Why bother someone else, I'll just carry you."
"Absolutely not, absolutely not!" Annabelle shook her head quickly, how could she let Mr. Gregory attend t
Kamila froze, staring at him in surprise.He glanced back at her: “Do you feel like you don’t recognize me anymore?”Kamila opened her mouth but didn’t say anything.It finally dawned on her that the man in front of her was no longer the same young man she had known.He chuckled bitterly: “Don’t say that. I hardly recognize myself either.”“Is it because of work pressure?” she asked.Gauge looked at her deeply and replied, “No.”“Then… what is it?”Before she could finish speaking, Gauge was already standing in front of her.Kamila tilted her head up, gazing at the man in front of her, confused. What had happened? Did it have something to do with Anya?Kamila had heard some gossip about Gauge and Anya’s engagement. She knew Gauge hadn’t been willing, but after everything that had happened, he had no choice but to take

As for the Vice President Li, he had already been fired by Scott.After reuniting with Zara, Seamus was determined not to let her go. He immediately brought her son to live with him. People often say that children are the glue that holds a couple together, and in this case, it was true. Once Seamus won his son’s heart, the rest of the relationship naturally fell into place.After moving to Seamus’s home, the little one was very happy and enjoyed spending time with him. As a mother, Zara was naturally concerned about her son’s well-being. Ultimately, for her son’s sake, she compromised and stayed with Seamus.They say love grows over time, and given that they already had feelings for each other, this reunion felt like a rekindling of old love. This rekindling
The one speaking was none other than Kendrick's best man, Seamus.Accompanying Seamus was his wife, Zara Xavier.When they arrived, Anna quickly stood up from Kendrick’s lap and sat beside him, her face slightly flushed from being caught.Kendrick held her hand, gently squeezing it as if to comfort her, then said to Seamus, "It’s us who should learn from you two. You've known each other for over ten years, right? Your kids are already a few years old, and yet you’re still as sweet as when you were dating!"Seamus sighed, "Yeah, we've known each other for twelve years, broke up for a few years, and the time we spent together was short."As he spoke, Seamus helped Zara pull out a chair, and they both sat down.Zara used the opportunity to greet both Kendrick and Anna briefly.Zara was very slim, with an air of cool elegance, but her demeanor was poised and straightforward. She seemed like the kind of person who was candid and unpretentious.Anna had heard from Kendrick that Zara graduat
When Annabelle focused again to take another look, she could no longer see it. She wasn't sure if she had just seen it wrong.It was supposed to be the case that guests without an invitation wouldn’t be allowed in, so Annabelle dismissed her doubts and refocused her thoughts.She turned to the two little angels and asked, "Are you ready?"Her son nodded earnestly.Alison also wanted to nod, but her father walked over.Mr. Nichols took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the cream from his daughter’s mouth, his face full of affection and tenderness.Then, Mr. Nichols straightened up and nodded to Annabelle. His little girl was ready, and they could begin.Annabelle turned around and looked towards him at the end of the red carpet.Kendrick was standing there, dressed in a white suit, so tall and handsome that it left her speechless. She couldn’t find the right words to describe him, no matter how hard she tried.At that moment, Kendrick was also looking at her. His gaze was so deep
It turned out that Briley had planted two poisonous plants in the small garden of Anna's mother. One was called Ghost Nightshade , whose fruit resembled small tomatoes, and the other was a plant commonly known as Drunken Heart Flower, which was highly toxic—its scent alone could cause hallucinations.Years ago, Briley had visited her pregnant sister, Tiffany, and intentionally picked some Ghost Nightshade fruits, mixing them into a bowl of small tomatoes to trick her sister into eating them. Just two of those fruits were enough to kill a child, as their toxicity was immense.How much her mother had consumed, Anna didn’t know. But one thing was certain: after eating the Ghost Nightshade, combined with the long-term exposure to the toxic flower's scent, her mother went into premature labor. The calming effects of both the Ghost Nightshade and Drunken Heart Flower made her mother’s contractions weak, eventually leading to a difficult labor and causing her death.Briley wanted to kill her
Annabelle glanced at her biological father and bit her lip. The whole situation felt a bit too sudden, and calling him "Dad" right now still felt a little awkward.It seemed that her father noticed her hesitation and smiled, saying, "We’ll be a family from now on. Take your time."Kendrick, smiling, patted her on the head and said, "When you’re discharged, would you like to change your name?"Anna froze for a moment, then realized what he meant. She would no longer be surnamed Sanchez but Murphy.Murphy…Wait a minute. Suddenly, she thought of something and turned to Kendrick. "Your mother’s surname is also Murphy. Could it be that we're… siblings?""Well, we already have a child, so if we are siblings, it's too late," Kendrick said, casually."That can't be possible!" Anna laughed, shaking her head.Her father chuckled and reassured her, "Don’t worry. Our Murphy family and Kendrick's mother's Murphy family don’t share the same ancestor. You two just focus on living your life, and eve
