Chapter 302 He Seems Quite Gentle Too
Last Updated:
2025-03-03 18:07:57When I left Elfhedge, it was still autumn. But when I returned, it was already deep winter.
Thinking about everything that had happened in the past few months, Annabelle felt a wave of sadness.
Kendrick walked towards her and took off his overcoat, wrapping it around her.
"Didn't I tell you about the temperature here? Why are you still wearing so little?"
Although it had only been two weeks since they had parted ways at Glubia, seeing each other now made Annabelle feel as if it had been a long time.
It seemed as if this was the true reunion.
Annabelle wrapped herself in a coat that still had his body temperature, and her heart gradually warmed up. She said, "Thinking that I will get in the car as soon as I get off the plane, it's just a few steps away, I won't freeze."
Kendrick helped her adjust the collar of her windbreaker again and then said to Jax, "You've had a tough journey. I'll give you a ride to the parking lot first, Jaime's

Ever since she smiled and said goodbye to Jax just now, Kendrick has been feeling sour.She was kind to people, which was her advantage. Kendrick also noticed it, and even Jax, who was extremely difficult to accept others, rarely showed a smile to her.You see, Jax had been following Kendrick for so long, and Kendrick hadn't even seen him smile much.But when she started praising other men, Kendrick felt very uncomfortable. Why could she always notice the good qualities in others but not see the good in him?Annabelle glanced at the rearview mirror again and remembered her conversation with Jax on the plane. She then said to Kendrick, "By the way, there's something I want to tell you, I hope you'll agree."Mr. Gregory, who was feeling sour in his heart, at this moment, did not look away and said calmly, "As long as it is reasonable."Annabelle couldn't help but squint her eyes. This sentence sounded very familiar, as if she had said it to hi

Annabelle was very thin-skinned. She thought he was still telling dirty jokes and wished she could plug her ears and not listen. So she didn't respond and stopped looking at him. She also didn't dare to mention anything about learning boxing from Jax anymore.Forty minutes later, the car drove into Violet Villa.The dim yellow lights on both sides of the corridor were quietly spread throughout the corridor, exceptionally tranquil and gentle.Annabelle couldn't help but roll down the car window, and the cool air seeped into the car. However, she didn't feel cold because at that moment, her heart was filled with a warm feeling of coming home.In the following period of time, I would live here, and not far away is Gauge's home, perhaps occasionally I could visit the very friendly Simon's home.With this in mind, Annabelle's mood became even more joyful, and the corners of her lips involuntarily curved upwards."So happy?""Well, it felt

Annabelle's cheeks grew warm, and she quickly looked down to change her shoes. She shouldn't have provoked him.The key is, this guy is always confessing, isn't he ever embarrassed...Afterwards, Kendrick took her to the master bedroom on the third floor by elevator and asked Annabelle to take a shower first before showing her the house.So Annabelle quickly took a hot shower and changed into the white cotton loungewear that Kendrick had prepared for her, eager to visit the residence she had fought so hard to obtain.At this moment, Kendrick had already changed into a set of home clothes. He wore a loose white knitted sweater on the upper body and light gray cotton casual pants on the lower body. Holding her hand, they started descending from the third floor.There are three floors on the ground, each with a small terrace. Standing on the terrace, you can see the scenery in the small garden downstairs, with evergreen plants distributed in a scattered and orderly manner throughout the

Kendrick was afraid that the sudden vibration of the phone would ruin her mood and didn't want to interrupt Annabelle's excitement, so she quietly left the study.Annabelle saw Kendrick's back as he left through the reflective glass, and she also saw him answer a phone call as he pushed the door open.At the moment the door closed, she also heard the first sentence he said after answering the phone.He said, "I haven't forgotten, I will come to see you after this busy period."He lowered his voice and spoke softly, causing Annabelle's fingers to slow down. The once melodious rhythm she was playing became slow and hesitant.That might have been a call from an ordinary friend...But Annabelle saw the moment Kendrick picked up his phone, the conflict in his eyes.She remembered, over two months ago, that phone number ending in 68.Kendrick hardly ever answered that call in front of her, and even claimed it was a prank call. However, when he was hospitalized due to poisoning, he answered

Kendrick couldn't help but laugh after listening. "Don't worry, I wouldn't let anyone kidnap me again, and I would try to make them kidnap both of us, so that we can take care of each other."Knowing that he was joking, Annabelle still got angry and turned around to hit him, but her little hand was caught.Then Kendrick sat up, thinking he was going to play a trick again. Annabelle got scared and tightly wrapped herself in the blanket. However, to her surprise, he got off the bed and picked her up along with the blanket."Hello Kendrick!""I'll show you the snow outside, it was already very thick."He carried Annabelle to the window, placing her on the window sill, and held her from behind.Annabelle looked out of the window and saw that the earth was covered in a silver-white blanket, completely silent and still.She quietly watched the snow, her whole self being small, curled up in Kendrick's chest."Can you accompany me to see the snow this year, but maybe not next year? You are so

Annabelle looked at Kendrick with a puzzled expression on her face."When did you use my card? How come I didn't know?"The key is, she didn't have that much money anymore, it had all been drained by Kendrick.Kendrick no longer hid from her and explained everything honestly.Before, she and Fabian were photographed on their way back to the apartment by someone. Actually, the photographer didn't blackmail them because the person taking the photos was Jax. At that time, Jax made Annabelle transfer 80 thousand dollars to him as a warning punishment.After hearing his words, Annabelle, who had always been a woman of words rather than actions, became so angry that she clenched her fist and turned around to hit Kendrick."You clearly had so much money, did you not feel guilty for bullying a young girl?"This time, Mr. Gregory didn't dodge and took a solid little punch, although it didn't hurt much."I was also reminding you to be cautious in your words and actions in the future. If those k
Last Updated : 2025-03-04I wish it were you Chapter 309 It's Great That She Has Returned
Annabelle is now clever; she avoids confronting Kendrick directly and instead employs indirect tactics.After a while, Kendrick said, "As for boxing, let's wait until your eyes are better, but I can be the one to teach you.""..."Is this the legendary, damn possessiveness...Annabelle didn't achieve her wish, so she silently deducted five points from him in her heart.After chatting for a while, Annabelle had already recovered from her unpleasant dream and her mood had returned to calm. However, tiredness quickly came over her.In no time, she couldn't open her eyes in Kendrick's arms.Kendrick put her back on the bed, and that night, she slept soundly in Kendrick's arms.I slept until nine o'clock in the morning, so soundly that I didn't even realize it.There was a message from Kendrick in the phone. He had already gone to the company. Breakfast was in the microwave in the kitchen, so she could heat it up and eat it when she woke up.He didn't come home at noon, but he will come ba

"Annabelle! You're back?" Ariana greeted her from the driver's seat.In the passenger seat was her younger sister, Annabelle, who looked familiar but she couldn't remember.Annabelle smiled at them and nodded."Annabelle, did you just finish shopping?" the girl in the passenger seat asked.Annabelle was very sensitive to sounds. As soon as the other person spoke, she remembered. This girl was from the Fritz family, and her name seemed to be Livia Fritz.That time, she was tricked by her brother Raphael into going to Stellar Bar, where she unexpectedly ran into Kendrick, who was attending a friend's birthday party.Kendrick took her to greet his friends, who were in a private room at the KTV. Ariana invited her to sing together, but a wealthy girl made a sarcastic comment, saying she was from the mountains and probably hadn't heard any popular songs.That wealthy lady's last name is Fritz, which is the one standing in front of us.Okay, if the angelic bitch doesn't come, she doesn't co

I wish it were you Chapter 1050 Help from an Ex-Boyfriend
Julissa wondered—could it be that Scott didn’t have a membership card and had used Heather’s instead?She temporarily stepped away from the front desk and sat in the lounge area, trying to figure out what to do next.Technically, she could just call Scott and ask him to bring her in.But she didn’t want to do that. She wanted to show up unannounced, catch them off guard, and completely disrupt their rhythm.And besides, if she were stopped outside and had to wait for Scott to come out and fetch her, it would feel like she had already lost to Heather in terms of presence and pride.So, that plan was a no-go.Should she just wait until they came out? But the more she thought about it, the more annoyed she felt.Why should she waste her time waiting around like this while they got to enjoy their date?Just as she was lost in frustration, a male voice called out to her.“Julissa?”Julissa closed her eyes. She didn’t even need to turn around—the voice alone was enough to know who it was.S
I wish it were you Chapter 1049 Too Embarrassing
Julissa quickly grabbed Scott’s hand. “Don’t worry about it.”He curled his lips into a smile and obediently let go, then swept her up into his arms and carried her back to the bed…The next morning, Julissa sat up, rubbing her throbbing temples and aching body—only to find the bed empty.Sunlight streamed through the sheer curtains onto her body. She glanced at the clock on the nightstand. Eleven a.m.Crap! She was late!No, this wasn’t just being late—she’d completely skipped work!“Mr. Nichols?” she called toward the bedroom door. No response. Clearly, the big boss had already gone to the office.She reached for her phone by the pillow—then suddenly remembered she’d used it to record video last night. Scott had gone to take a shower, and she’d been so exhausted she’d fallen asleep without even thinking about it.The phone had to still be on the windowsill.Barefoot, she got out of bed and pulled back the curtain. Sure enough, the phone was still there, screen down and nearly burnin
I wish it were you Chapter 1048 Seduction, Well-Planned
After dinner, they cleaned up the kitchen together. Then Scott went to take a shower, while Julissa headed to the bedroom.She placed her phone on the windowsill, hidden behind the curtain. Only a sheer layer covered it—just enough to keep things from being too explicit. As long as his voice was clearly captured, a blurry image would actually be even better.After all, the last thing she wanted was for every man at his future wedding to see her naked on the big screen.Yes—she was going to record her night with Mr. Nichols.Just like those classic evil ex-girlfriends in dramas, she planned to send the footage straight to his future wife. And better yet—broadcast it at their wedding.Sure, this move was one of those you hurt me, I’ll destroy us both kind of deals.But whatever. She, Julissa, was just a nobody, a little shrimp in the vast sea of high society. Once she left this circle, she could go back to her own little life.Even if she couldn't return to a peaceful life, she would do
I wish it were you Chapter 1047 Definitely Hiding Something
Julissa was startled by his sudden move. She quickly turned around and smiled at Scott. “Maybe my period is coming. I’m just feeling a little low.”He paused for a second, as if just realizing what she meant by “period,” then gently tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.“You girls get emotional because of that?”Julissa forced a small smile. “Of course. We get moody, feel down for no reason, and crave all kinds of heavy flavors.”Scott raised an eyebrow. “Oh? So what’s Julissa craving today?”Julissa immediately sensed where this was going and shot him a glare. “Definitely not what you’re thinking.”“What am I thinking?” Scott’s gaze lingered on her lips, a mischievous smile spreading across his face.Truth be told, Julissa wasn’t in the mood to flirt, so she backed away slightly. “Mr. Nichols, behave yourself…”He didn’t answer. Instead, he leaned in and kissed her.Julissa wanted to push him away, but her hands were covered in marinade and seasoning from preparing the fish.
I wish it were you Chapter 1046 Marriage Without Freedom
That one sentence struck deep.Instinctively, Julissa glanced at the ring on her left middle finger, thinking of what Scott had said to her.That night, when he gave her the ring, he had told her it wasn’t an engagement ring—just something to wear for now, and that when the time came for a proposal, he would give her something even better.She believed his words.So even though what Mrs. Nichols just said shocked her, and even brought a momentary pang to her chest, she didn’t believe it.“How do you know he won’t marry me?”Honestly, Julissa even wanted to ask, How do you know I’d definitely agree to marry him? A girl’s got her pride too.But now wasn’t the time to nitpick. She just wanted to know where Mrs. Nichols got the confidence to say so definitively that Scott wouldn’t marry her.Mrs. Nichols didn’t seem like the type to lie, and that only made Julissa more determined to find out the truth.“Then I’ll be blunt,” Mrs. Nichols said. “Tomorrow at 7 p.m., he’s going to meet Miss H
I wish it were you Chapter 1045 Facing It Calmly
Walking beside Mrs. Nichols was another senior executive from the Nichols Group, one of the company’s veterans. The two of them were chatting and laughing, clearly in good spirits.Why is Mrs. Nichols still here? Has she been at the company the whole day?But then again, she was the former president’s wife. It was only natural for her to be on familiar terms with the old guard.Julissa quickly lowered her head, pretending she hadn’t seen anything, hoping Mrs. Nichols hadn’t noticed her either.She scrolled aimlessly through her phone, clearly distracted. She knew she should go up and greet her, but kept telling herself there was no point in exchanging a few perfunctory words. Better to stay in ostrich mode.More importantly, she was feeling guilty—her first impression with her future mother-in-law had been far from ideal. Or maybe it was just that Mrs. Nichols had such an overwhelming presence that Julissa dreaded facing her alone.She couldn’t help but wonder again—what kind of man m
I wish it were you Chapter 1044 Mr. Nichols Is Just Too Wicked
Julissa truly felt like she could never win against this man. Talking to him was like navigating a minefield—one careless step, and she’d fall right into his trap.But it was still working hours, after all. Julissa thought his sudden surge of interest was way too unexpected, leaving her flustered and completely unprepared.“Mr. Nichols, what do you take me for?” she asked, breathless.“What do I take you for?”As each button was slowly undone, Julissa felt like her face was about to combust.“I’m not the kind of woman who’d… who’d just let herself get harassed for a bonus!”“Then just pretend you’re harassing me,” Scott said casually.Julissa blinked. That’s allowed?But actually, if she flipped the roles in her mind—if she imagined herself as the one taking advantage of him—somehow, it felt a bit more tolerable.Scott’s hands didn’t stop moving. They were already at her waist. “Besides,” he murmured, “you went back on your word. There’s got to be a price for that.”Julissa was hot an
I wish it were you Chapter 1043 Just Her, No Bonus
Kendrick resumed his earlier position, leaning against the headboard. “The Nichols family still has some unresolved issues—they’re definitely in no place to plan a wedding right now.”“I see…” Annabelle nodded thoughtfully. “But Julissa’s dad also said they had to be together for at least a year before they could get married, just to prevent them from being impulsive.”Kendrick didn’t respond further. He got out of bed and walked around to Annabelle’s side, scooping her up in his arms.“What are you doing now?” Annabelle asked in alarm.Kendrick chuckled helplessly. “Time to wash up, remember? You said your legs were too weak to walk.”…The Next Morning, Times GroupWhen Julissa went to the staff lounge to get water, she overheard her colleagues excitedly chatting about their quarterly bonuses.When they saw her, they couldn't help gossiping. They said that Miss Hickman had been working overtime again and had even completed another project, so her bonus would surely be substantial.J

That morning, after Agatha left the the Whitney Group, she died in a car accident that afternoon.The killer wasn’t Dereon, and it certainly wasn’t Ryan. Since he had promised to let her go, he wasn’t someone who would go back on his word.But Ryan knew exactly who did it—because right after Agatha’s death, he received a phone call.On the other end, the man said coldly, “Little Ryan, this is how you deal with traitors.”Ryan understood—this was a warning. A warning that if he dared to betray them, dared to spare Kendrick again, then whether it was Ryan himself, Anna, or anyone close to him, they’d all end up like Agatha.At this point, it was no longer a matter of wanting to kill Kendrick or not—it was something he had to do.Otherwise, the one who would die… would be him.Ryan downed his drink in one gulp.Dereon continued, “Young Master, I’m grateful you didn’t punish me and only assigned me overseas. But I still don’t think I did anything wrong. And that Sid—how could he possibly
