Upon hearing Annabelle's affirmative response, Simon immediately smiled and said, "Annabelle, if you have any requests, feel free to speak up.""I wanted to start endorsement activities after the exams were over. Because I had fallen behind on some courses, I wanted to catch up as soon as possible."Simon secretly admired, in the face of external disturbances, he remained calm and focused on his studies. Young people should be like this, prioritizing their academics.Although Simon wanted Annabelle to start endorsing immediately, he then chuckled and said, "No problem, the previous spokesperson's contract hasn't expired yet. You can focus on studying and have a good rest during the winter vacation, and then come to endorse later.""Thank you, Mr. Murphy," Annabelle said, glancing cautiously at Kendrick again.Although he appeared calm on the surface, Annabelle could already sense that Kendrick would probably have a serious talk with her later.After all, she made this decision a bit q

Although Annabelle was wealthy and powerful, she took it upon herself to accept endorsements, which indeed affected Kendrick.Therefore, Annabelle took a deep breath and continued, "Actually, I used to have a necklace that was very similar in style to Simon's latest jewelry collection. It was the only thing my grandmother left me, so when I saw those catalogs, it felt very familiar and I really wanted to endorse them next."She patiently explained, seemingly genuinely hoping that he would understand.Kendrick's anger had long dissipated by now, and for him, her earnest explanation was already enough.Anyway, I never intended to stop her from the beginning.Just hearing her mention the necklace, Kendrick's attention shifted to this matter as well."Which necklace, why have I never seen you wear it?""The necklace had long been taken back by my mother," Annabelle frowned as she spoke of it."Wasn't it given to you by grandma?"Annabelle pursed her lips, her mother wanted to claim her th

Annabelle snapped back to reality and quickly blinked her eyes. "Who said that? I was just thinking..."Kendrick's smile grew wider, "What are you thinking?""Didn't you say before that I was your wife and no one would dare to provoke me?"Her statement instantly lifted Kendrick's mood. He thought to himself, "It's all because you used to hide our relationship from us. I thought you were going to deny me again.""I thought you were going to have a secret marriage again."Annabelle sighed and said, "Even if I wanted to hide, I might not be able to hide it."After all, taking on the endorsement, especially from a big company like the Murphy Group, also meant putting oneself in an absolutely public position.This is different from going to school.With a cunning smile, she said, "Besides, if it benefits you to mention it, I don't have to stubbornly refuse."With her words, Kendrick did remember.Before, she was bullied at school. Some people said that she was being financially supported

"Anna, I am lying here next to you like this, can you really sleep?"Mr. Gregory was truly frustrated. He had the looks and the physique, so why was she so indifferent?"The doctor forbade me from daydreaming," Annabelle mumbled sleepily, "Kendrick, you should go to sleep too..."Kendrick raised an eyebrow, so, had she also daydreamed? Was it because the doctor said not to do it, that she had been suppressing her little desires all along?"What should I do if I couldn't fall asleep?"Annabelle suddenly opened her eyes wide, grabbed the big hand, and turned her head to glare at him.Kendrick chuckled softly and said, "It's not like it's the first time, why are you still so nervous?""Kendrick, I wanted to sleep!"These days, although Kendrick didn't have a feast, he still managed to take advantage of the cheap deals. Anyway, he kissed those he should and shouldn't have kissed, and touched those he should and shouldn't have touched.Although Annabelle gritted her teeth and shouted his f

Annabelle knew that if this guy called her over, it definitely wouldn't be for anything good."What else did you do..."Kendrick couldn't help but smirk and said lightly, "If you really want to do something, I would take you to the inner room.""..."Annabelle's face turned red instantly. How could he manage to say such words without blushing or skipping a beat, looking completely serious?She dared not dwell on the words he said, biting her lip as she approached him.Kendrick grabbed her wrist and made her sit on the chair.He stood beside her, with one hand supporting the back of the chair and the other propped on the edge of the table. "It's understandable that she didn't sleep well last night."Kendrick's deep and ambiguous voice reminded Annabelle of the previous night.However, he immediately changed the subject and said, "Let me first tell you about the wrong questions, and then we can have dinner."Annabelle sat in Kendrick's boss chair, almost half embraced by him, listening

Just when Annabelle felt they couldn't escape, and were about to meet their doom, Kendrick suddenly turned left to help her, and tapped her right leg. "Step on the gas and go."Annabelle drove mechanically, as he said, stepping on the gas pedal and driving past the right side of the truck, keeping close to its body.They rushed onto the opposite lane, and there were oncoming vehicles coming towards them. Honking and slowing down, the vehicles warned her to give way.Annabelle quickly turned right, preparing to return to the normal lane.Kendrick, however, took hold of her steering wheel, preventing her from changing direction again. He then slowly adjusted the direction and smoothly merged into the regular lane, before finally parking by the roadside.In just a few seconds, a loud crash came from behind. The large truck that was about to collide with Annabelle had instead crashed into a tree by the side of the road, causing the thick tree trunk to snap.Annabelle glanced at the truck

They took the elevator to the third floor and entered the master bedroom of the two of them. They placed her on the Empress chair by the window and said, "I'll go help you prepare hot water so you can take a bath and relax."Annabelle nodded and looked out of the window, her heart sinking as she thought about the driver who had died in the accident.Although the accident had nothing to do with her, she couldn't help but think that people are always in a rush for their lives. In fact, if they just pause for a moment, even if it's just for ten minutes of rest, perhaps such a tragedy wouldn't have happened.And looking back on everything after my whirlwind marriage to Kendrick, I suddenly felt a different kind of speeding sensation, especially when Kendrick confessed his feelings for me.She always had a vague sense of unease, wondering if they were moving too fast and overlooking hidden dangers.When Kendrick finished preparing the hot water, he saw Annabelle sitting on the chair by the

"Yes, I can't always make you accompany me to practice driving and delay your work, so from now on, until I can drive on the road independently, I have decided to be your driver. This way, I can practice driving and it won't affect your work."Kendrick was reluctant to let her be the driver, but upon further thought, knowing how determined she was, he knew she would definitely make it happen.If he didn't agree, she might have gone to find someone like Fabian or Gauge, and volunteered to be their driver.She could do this straightforward thing.So Kendrick suppressed his reluctance and sat on the edge of the bed, "Then let's quickly freshen up, we'll have breakfast outside today."Annabelle crawled out of her warm bed, brushed her teeth and washed her face with her eyes closed, silently criticizing Kendrick's devilish self-discipline in maintaining a regular schedule.He never seemed to oversleep or be lazy.Kendrick used to go to work early, so there were fewer cars on the road and h

No one knew how long had passed before peace finally returned to the bedroom.Sunlight slipped through the curtains, casting soft rays across their bed.A thin blanket was draped over Annabelle, her bare shoulders and arms exposed.She had just woken up, already drained of energy, and now her entire body felt sore and weak—as if all strength had left her.Passion could make one forget their troubles for a moment, but once it faded, all those nagging worries returned, one by one.She lay quietly beneath the faint sunlight, watching the play of light and shadow on the bed, lost in thought.“Still upset about breaking the clay doll yesterday?” Kendrick murmured against her shoulder, planting a soft kiss there.Annabelle gave a slight nod, then shook her head.The doll, with its auspicious meaning, had been shattered—it felt unlucky. But more importantly, the incident made her realize something:She and Kendrick had been together for so long, yet they still didn’t have a child.“Why haven
I wish it were you Chapter 1039 Uncle? Sister?
Annabelle shook her head at the little boy. She could tell he hadn’t done it on purpose, so of course she didn’t blame him.At that moment, the boy’s mother arrived. She scolded her son for misbehaving—how could he run off like that before he’d even learned to stop properly?Then she turned to Annabelle and Kendrick, thanking them and apologizing for the broken item. She asked how much the figurines had cost so she could compensate them.Annabelle didn’t want to fuss over it. “It’s fine,” she said. But the woman insisted—her child had broken someone else’s things and she had to pay for it.The clay dolls weren’t cheap. Kendrick glanced at the mother and son, then casually quoted a price: “One hundred fifty.”The woman immediately transferred the money and even pressed her son’s head down, making him apologize.The boy then said again, “Sorry, uncle… sorry, sister…”The corner of Kendrick’s mouth twitched, and he replied coolly, “It’s okay.”Afterward, Annabelle and Kendrick crossed th
I wish it were you Chapter 1038 Wifey's Shy Face
Annabelle suddenly realized that all those rapidly increasing follower counts on her social media—each number represented a real person. And the red bean cake vendor standing in front of her was clearly one of them. This unexpected kindness from a stranger warmed her heart, though it also made her feel a bit embarrassed. No matter what, she decided to pay for the cakes. But no matter what she said, the vendor firmly refused to take her money. There was a line of customers behind her, so she didn't want to keep holding up the queue. Instead, she quickly scanned the QR code, estimated a fair price, and transferred the money to the vendor before leaving with peace of mind. Yet before she’d walked a few steps, the young vendor chased after her, insistently stuffing two extra portions of red bean cakes into her hands. His face was even redder than before. He wanted to look at her, but didn’t dare, scratching his head as he said shyly, “I said I’d give my goddess a freebie, and I me

Linda paused. Marvin couldn’t help asking, “And then?”She snapped back to the present and continued, as if telling someone else’s story.“Luckily, my brother came back. He was a sophomore in college and had just returned home for summer break. He saw that bastard trying to hurt me, grabbed a kitchen knife, and slashed his neck. Blood sprayed all over my face.“He kept hacking at him until the guy couldn’t move anymore. Then he held me and said, ‘Linda, it’s okay now. He’ll never hurt you again.’“After that, my brother was sentenced to death. I was sixteen.“The day he was executed, my grandfather had a stroke and didn’t survive. After the funeral, my stepmother asked for a divorce, and my dad agreed.“The night before their divorce, my dad opened the gas valve. He and my stepmother died of carbon monoxide poisoning.“I spent a month in the hospital but survived. After that… I was on my own. I didn’t really ‘struggle’ in society—I just drifted. Took life one day at a time.“This job

“No way!” Marvin spat out, his voice tight with disbelief. “Anna just finished a jewelry event last night—there’s no way she could be in North City!”“Maybe she flew over after the event?” the reporter offered weakly, desperation creeping into his tone. “Mr. Gregory, if your brother finds out I tried to dig into this… you’ve got to protect me.”“Enough already. I get it.” Marvin snapped, the edge of impatience slicing through his words.“Alright, alright. No time to chat—gotta push the story out before someone else scoops it.” The reporter hung up in a hurry.But he was already too late.Another outlet had already dropped part of the exclusive interview, cleverly holding back the juiciest bits to keep viewers hooked. Within twenty minutes, the full conversation with Kendrick and Annabelle was everywhere.In a private hospital room in Elfhedge, Marvin stared at the news reports, fury radiating off him like heat from asphalt. His phone met the floor with a sickening crack, screen shatte
I wish it were you Chapter 1035 Because She Has a Slim Waist
Annabelle had long known that the reporters were fixated on this topic and would eventually bring it up again.Even though they were blocked from interviewing her at yesterday’s press conference, here they were today.She was just thankful that she wasn’t facing them alone.As for the real reason behind her and Kendrick’s flash marriage, it was simply because she didn’t want to marry a perverted old man, and Kendrick had agreed to marry her because she claimed she could help treat his headaches.Neither of those reasons could be made public. Otherwise, people would assume Kendrick was just a backup plan, and the fact that she knew medicine would be completely exposed.Kendrick might not mind being teased, but if people found out she had medical skills, things would get very complicated.Just imagining it—every time one of Kendrick’s friends or business associates (especially the ones she didn’t like) met her, they'd stick out their wrist without a word and ask for a diagnosis. That wo

After ending the call with Kendrick, Annabelle felt much better.Regardless of how her parents acted, her future was her own. With Kendrick by her side, always considering her needs, she already felt content with her life.Still feeling drowsy, she lay on the bed for a while and ended up falling back asleep. When she finally woke again, it was hunger that roused her.She planned to get up and find something to eat.Looking around, she couldn’t see where her clothes had gone. A white T-shirt, clearly Kendrick’s, was draped over the sofa beside the bed.She got out of bed barefoot and slipped the oversized T-shirt over her head.Kendrick was tall, so the shirt was long enough to cover her hips. Loose and casual.She walked to the dining area and spotted the lunch Kendrick mentioned. She was about to warm it up in the microwave when she suddenly heard commotion outside the door—lots of voices.She vaguely made out someone calling, “Mr. Gregory…”Was he back? She didn’t dare open the door
I wish it were you Chapter 1033 Who Told You to Do It?
Annabelle's personal social media account was gaining followers at an explosive rate—so fast it could give someone high blood pressure.For her, this kind of media exposure was obviously a great thing.You could say that Alice had practically sacrificed herself to boost Annabelle’s popularity.Not only did the incident showcase Anna’s personal capabilities, but it also unintentionally promoted Murphy Jewelry—an unexpected wave of free publicity.Under this trending topic, netizens began checking out the pieces shown at Murphy Jewelry’s latest press conference.Many even tagged her: “Supporting Anna! Already bought it!”Similar comments were flooding in.Out of curiosity, Annabelle checked the e-commerce platform authorized by Murphy Jewelry.To her surprise, 80% of the newly released items from the previous night were already sold out.No wonder that last time, when she was being slammed online, Kendrick didn’t suppress the news but instead flipped the narrative and gained popularity

Actually, Kendrick had already grown suspicious when breakfast was delivered.The strange eye contact between the two servers caught his attention, especially the male server who looked somewhat familiar.Previously, when Kendrick was negotiating business with an important partner at a hotel in Elfhedge, Ryan launched a surprise attack. That was also when Anna took a tranquilizer dart for him.During that confrontation, Kendrick vaguely remembered a face just like this—handsome, with thick brows and big eyes. He looked honest and trustworthy, which was exactly the kind of appearance that lowered one’s guard.But Kendrick couldn’t be sure if it was the same person.The call he made to Jaime was to have him investigate the people who had just delivered the food.If it was the same person, then Ryan was making another move against him.As for whether the breakfast was actually poisoned, Kendrick had only suspected it at the time—he wasn’t certain.He also thought, if Ryan really wanted t
