I wish it were you Chapter 324 Want Her to Rely on Him
Jax paused for a moment and said straightforwardly, "Harmonica, I always knew how to play."Kendrick glanced at him lightly and said, "Oh, really."Jax's heart sank as he understood. He realized that Boss was not asking him whether he could play the harmonica or not, but rather why he would play it for the lady, especially when Boss was not around.Jax didn't want Boss to see him as a rival, so he immediately explained seriously, "When I was at Glubia, I was playing the harmonica by the lake, and coincidentally, it was heard by the lady. She understands musical instruments and noticed that my harmonica had three out-of-tune holes. She suggested that I tune it down, but I told her it was because the reed was broken and I didn't know how to fix it. Maybe that's why she gave me a new one."Kendrick nodded after listening, "I didn't say anything either, why did you explain so much?""..."Jax was not good at expressing himself, but he was not foolish. He could somewhat grasp Boss's inner

His eyebrows grew very well, thick but not messy, and his eyelashes were really long, said to be a symbol of intelligence. Kendrick is indeed quite smart.Annabelle thought carefully and, although in the eyes of most people, her greatest skill was in business, she actually had many other talents.He could cook, although not as good as a chef, but better than many people. Anyway, Annabelle, who was not proficient in cooking, felt inferior.She had also looked at Kendrick's bookshelf, and all the books on it, he must have read them all, because there wasn't a single book that was completely brand new. Philosophy, history, military... perhaps that's why he was smarter than others?As for sports, swimming, diving, and golf were all above the level of amateur players. It seemed like he also knew free combat and kickboxing, as I had seen a medal in his study.He also had knowledge of music theory, although not as much as her. However, Annabelle had also heard him play the piano, and it was

Annabelle was taken aback and nervously smiled, "Oh? Are you awake?""It seems like the illness has completely healed?" Kendrick looked at her ambiguously, while his hand gently squeezed her slender waist.Annabelle's face turned red. "Don't misunderstand me, I was just... just...""Hmm?" Kendrick looked at her with a half-smile, "Just what?"Annabelle bit her lip, thinking that if she confessed to stealing the phone, it would be like giving herself away.But if not telling the truth, then what to say, should I say I want to give him a morning kiss?No way, no way, if she dares to make up stories like that, Kendrick would definitely go ahead and make it a done deal right away."I wanted to delete the photos you secretly took of me, but I only unlocked your screen without looking at any of the content on your phone or touching your photo album. That's it."Annabelle was about to leave him as she spoke, but Kendrick felt that this perspective of her was refreshing and it felt good, so h

Kendrick couldn't help but laugh, "Jax is just avoiding suspicion. When I am around in the future, you can go and treat him, and he won't shut the door on you."Sure enough, with Kendrick's company, Annabelle went to treat Jax again, and Jax became more cooperative.Annabelle didn't blame Kendrick, but she also felt that she should be more careful in the future. After all, she was not just a doctor, but also Kendrick's wife in Jax's eyes. She should avoid suspicion so as not to make others feel uncomfortable.After recovering from her illness, Annabelle thought about learning to drive and also about returning to school for classes.So I called Kamila and asked about the progress of the course and if there were any changes to the schedule.Kamila said that the classes for this semester had already been finished, and this month was basically for review. At the end of the month, the official exam week would begin.Annabelle was very frustrated. Was she already going to fail her first sem

The next day, Annabelle put on a big sweater and went out.Just as she took a couple of steps forward, Kendrick, who was behind her, pulled her back into the house. Then Mr. Gregory put a coat on her, placed a hat on her head, and tied a scarf around her neck. He satisfiedly adjusted the pom-pom on her hat and said, "It's perfect.""Just two steps away, there's no need to wear so much..."Annabelle looked reluctant, she had planned to visit Simon looking beautiful, but now her fluffy hair from the morning breeze would definitely be flattened by the hat."You just healed the scar and forgot the pain; did you forget how uncomfortable you were when you were sick a few days ago?"Kendrick sighed in his heart as he trained her, feeling like he had raised a daughter.I thought she was quite an independent girl, but sometimes she was not as careful as he thought.She is not just an expert in long-term illness, she simply doesn't take long-term illness seriously.Annabelle pouted, knowing he

When Annabelle arrived, it was not yet mealtime, so the two of them followed Simon to the small living room.Housekeeper Kim had already packed up the prepared items and handed them over to Annabelle, saying they were specially prepared for her.It was a small bamboo basket, and the contents inside were clear at a glance - several boxes of blueberries and two boxes of coffee.Simon said to Annabelle, "I heard that blueberries protect eyesight. Luckily, I have a small blueberry orchard in the south. I had someone pick some for you just yesterday afternoon. Although they're not anything special, the blueberries here should taste better than the ones you buy at the supermarket. I have already asked Kim to put the contact information of the orchard staff in the box. After you finish eating, you just need to send a WhatsApp message to them, and someone will continue to deliver them to you."Then I told Annabelle that herbal tea could cleanse the liver and improve eyesight, so I prepared tw

Annabelle was in a cheerful mood, and her eyes curved into a smile. "Hmm, it reminded me of the taste of my grandma's cooking."Simon was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter, saying, "That's quite a high praise for me.""Hey? Is this... made by you?""Not like?"Annabelle only just noticed that Simon was indeed dressed comfortably and casually today. When they had greeted them earlier, his sleeves were slightly rolled up, and he even reminded Kim to be careful with the stove while speaking.I didn't think much about it before, but now I realize that Simon cooked this meal himself.Annabelle's good impression of Simon was steadily increasing. How could one not like such a refined and handsome middle-aged man who not only managed a large corporation but also excelled in culinary skills?At the same time, Mrs. Murphy and Stacy became even more curious, wondering what kind of woman could be so lucky to marry Simon and have such a handsome and talented son.Kendrick glanced

With that, Simon quickly added, "Regarding the signing fee, the Murphy Group will definitely come up with a price that satisfies Annabelle. Although money is certainly not a determining factor in your eyes, this does represent our sincerity as the Murphy Group."As Annabelle listened to Simon's earnest invitation, she could feel how highly he regarded her. Whether or not she would accept this invitation, she knew she had to take it seriously.Annabelle asked what the requirements were for being a spokesperson and what things she needed to comply with.Simon took out the drafted contract and handed it to Annabelle directly. "The contract includes some requirements, but they are all just procedures and formalities. Everything can be adjusted according to your situation. Take a look first, and if there are any parts you don't understand, I can explain them to you."Annabelle had never dealt with this type of contract before. Although she knew Simon wouldn't include any unfair terms, she

“Stop it, don’t say that!” Annabelle quickly interrupted him.Kendrick chuckled, “Well, you scared me first.”She had no choice but to comfort him instead. “Maybe I’ve just been too anxious lately and overthinking. Don’t be afraid.”Kendrick sighed and gently rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb. “Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.”Annabelle nodded. She felt the atmosphere was getting a little heavy. Since they couldn’t change the fact that they had to part, they might as well talk about something lighter.“When you come back, can you buy me two boxes of red bean cakes? From that pastry shop in Bellingham `Alley. One for me and one for Julissa, she loves red bean filling too.”Kendrick smiled and agreed, “Anything else?”Annabelle said, “There’s also a clay figurine shop on Lawrence Street. They make really cute little clay dolls. Can you bring me a pair? I want to put them on the bookshelf.”“Sure. What else?”Annabelle tried to think hard. She had only been to North City once, b

In truth, Kendrick had overestimated her.Five minutes later, Annabelle was completely defeated. She pushed Kendrick away and glared at him, her face red.Kendrick chuckled. “Still mad? Then how about…”“I’m not mad anymore!” Annabelle quickly interrupted.Smiling, Kendrick helped her get dressed, while he himself hadn’t even undone a single button the whole time.Annabelle sighed once more—she really was no match for the sly old fox. The moment she so much as wagged her tail at him, he had her thoroughly handled.She felt exhausted now and truly just wanted to lie down and rest.Kendrick glanced at the time and said there was still an hour before he had to leave. He told Anna to rest here for a bit—he would stay with her.So Annabelle lay on Kendrick’s lap and drifted off to sleep.Who knows how long had passed when she drowsily felt Kendrick pinch her earlobe. “Anna, I have to go. I’ll have Jax take you home to sleep.”Annabelle’s eyes flew open. “No, I want to see you off.”Kendric
I wish it were you Chapter 1018 So Easy to Make People Hate You
Annabelle followed Kendrick back to the sofa and nestled into his arms.“Anna, I need to confirm something with you.”“Mm, go ahead.”Annabelle was tired and slowly lay down, resting her head on his thigh.“When you suddenly took off your shoes on stage earlier, was that improvised or did something happen?”Annabelle looked at him and replied that it definitely wasn’t an improvised move. It was her first time on the runway—she wouldn’t dare be reckless. The heels had a problem, so she had no choice but to take them off.Kendrick nodded. “I see. That explains it.”“Explains what?”Seeing how serious he looked, Annabelle grew a bit uneasy—this didn’t seem simple.Kendrick hesitated for two seconds, then showed her the video Jax had given him.It was footage taken backstage while the models were getting ready before going on stage. The cameraman had been arranged by Gauge to capture some behind-the-scenes content for the post-event promo video. Annabelle remembered this and had even gree
I wish it were you Chapter 1017 Like a Dream
After Julissa left, Annabelle originally wanted to return to the dressing room to remove her makeup. But the room was packed—during the short time she was gone, her previous seat had been taken by another model.They were all touching up their makeup, preparing to showcase jewelry on stage later.Since Annabelle’s part was already done, it wouldn’t be right to fight for space, so she decided to head to the lounge and change her clothes instead. As for her makeup, she could just take it off at home.With that in mind, Annabelle headed into her private lounge.As she opened the door and stepped in, the lights were off. Just as she reached out to turn them on, her wrist was suddenly grabbed, and she fell into a strong, warm man’s embrace. The man quickly shut and locked the door behind them.She let out a startled cry, but the man silenced her with a kiss, swallowing her panicked gasp.He kissed her deeply. At first, Annabelle resisted, but soon she stopped struggling.Because the scent
I wish it were you Chapter 1016 Not Playing Along Anymore
Annabelle said somewhat regretfully, “My husband is on a business trip. I’ll probably just go home and sleep after this…”Truth be told, she did long for Kendrick’s praise and appreciation. Even if he only took her to grab some street food or shared a simple bowl of noodles at home to celebrate, she’d still feel completely content.But Kendrick was out of town, too busy to even attend the event, let alone celebrate.The interview wrapped up—everything that needed to be asked was asked, and things that shouldn’t be asked, Linda chose not to bring up. She ended it at the right moment.As she was about to leave, a flicker of emotion flashed through Linda’s eyes. She looked at Annabelle and said, “It’s been years since anyone cared whether I lived or died. Thank you, Ms. Sanchez.”Annabelle shook her head and looked into her eyes seriously. “I’ll be waiting for you to come find me.”Linda gave a slight nod.They parted ways—Annabelle headed toward the dressing room, while Linda told the c

At the check-in area of the press conference, Annabelle was being interviewed.Only one reporter was present today, but microphones and recording devices from multiple media outlets had already been set up on a small podium in advance.Annabelle stood on one side of the podium to make it easier for the microphones to pick up her voice.Before this, Gauge had asked her if she wanted to be interviewed. If she didn’t, he wouldn’t arrange it.Annabelle was a little resistant, but she agreed in the end.First, she was the brand ambassador, and it was her duty to cooperate with the promotion.Second, she had been avoiding the media for a long time, which only made the paparazzi even more eager to get her story. They had been chasing her down and trying everything to interview her.Even more frustrating, when they couldn’t get a real interview, they just made things up.Since that was the case, she figured she might as well accept the interview openly.Gauge understood her personality. To pr
I wish it were you Chapter 1014 Kicking Off the Heels
The stylist handed the shoes to the girl, who quickly walked over to Annabelle.“Thank you,” Annabelle said as she took the shoes.“No worries!” the girl replied before hurrying off—she was about to go on stage.Annabelle bent down to change her shoes.The girl looked back at her, the corners of her mouth lifting in a slight smile, then stepped onto the runway.After putting on the heels, Annabelle stood up and took a few steps to get used to them. The heels were high, but she had worn taller ones before—she wasn't worried about twisting an ankle.Time ticked by. The runway show was nearing its end.Finally, it was her turn.Taking a deep breath, Annabelle stepped onto the runway, wearing designer Malina’s signature piece for the season.Applause filled the venue as she made her entrance.It was her first runway walk. Even though she had rehearsed countless times in her mind—and practiced on-site—it still felt entirely different in the moment.So many eyes were on her. To say she wasn
I wish it were you Chapter 1013 He Can Pamper Her However He Wants
Kendrick paused for a couple of seconds—was Briley on the phone with Anna?After all, among the people going on stage today, the only one she could speak to in such an overbearing tone was likely Anna.Briley ended the call, though it sounded more like the other person had hung up on her. She came out of the stairwell with a dark expression.A male staff member happened to walk by, and she grabbed him to ask, "Hey, where's the models' makeup room?"The staff member pointed toward Kendrick and said, "Ma'am, head forward, turn right, go down to the first floor. The first room on your right is the one."Briley followed his gesture and, of course, saw Kendrick standing there.Kendrick gave her a faint nod. It was obvious from her stiff expression that she hadn’t expected to run into him.But she quickly forced a smile and walked over.They weren’t far apart, so she reached him in just a few steps."What a coincidence, Kendrick. Fancy running into you here. Have you been busy lately? How’s
I wish it were you Chapter 1012 A Pitiful Soul
Dale said that six months ago, she suddenly received an email from a stranger.The email contained dirt on her—scandals from before and shortly after she entered the entertainment industry. That person used it to threaten her into doing their bidding.Almost every piece of negative news about Annabelle on the internet in the past six months had been spread by Dale.But she had only ever communicated with the person via phone calls—never met them in person. What’s more, it was a one-way communication: the person always called her, using a hidden number and a voice changer. Dale didn’t even know if the person was male or female.What she could confirm, however, was that the person knew everything about Annabelle’s life—including her past—and had even provided a large number of photos, both recent and from her childhood, for Dale to use in edited images.Dale hadn’t kept doing it just because the person held something over her. That person had also painted her a beautiful lie—saying that
