"Don't bother, you go ahead and do your work, I'll play with the kitten for a while."

Marvin nodded and walked towards the workbench.

There was a large, long table in the restaurant, which could be considered a multi-functional area. It could be used for dining and also for office work during regular times.

Afterwards, Marvin sat at the edge of the long table and worked on his computer.

Annabelle sat on the sofa playing with the kitten, and casually looked up to see Marvin working earnestly.

She suddenly had a thought, what if Marvin had been as polite and gentle to her in the past as he is now, would she have married Kendrick instead of him?

As soon as this thought came up, Annabelle immediately cut it off, as if she heard Kendrick questioning: "What, regret marrying me?"

Even though she said she had no regrets, Kendrick would definitely not let her off easily.

So I hurriedly averted my gaze from Marvin and started playing with Coco, holding the cat toy stick attentively.

Marvin was

    Annabelle thought to herself that if it was a low degree, she shouldn't feel dizzy after just one glass.She had also drunk alcohol before, but never like this.I wanted to stand up and wash my face, but as soon as I got up, I felt extremely dizzy and fell to the side.Marvin got up and supported her shoulders, "Anna, are you okay?""I seemed a little drunk..." she said drowsily, looking around the room and continued, "Right now, in my eyes, there are two CoCos."Marvin laughed. He had never seen Annabelle like this before. She had always been polite and distant towards him, but he never expected her to be so adorable when she was drunk. It made his eyes darken involuntarily, and his Adam's apple couldn't help but roll."I helped you to the sofa first."Annabelle nodded, but her steps were weak and she was about to fall at any moment. Marvin then held her waist and firmly embraced her, walking towards the living room sofa.She felt dizzy and uncomfortable at the moment. She didn't fee

    Annabelle knew that she was lifted up by Marvin and placed on a soft bed.She didn't know what Marvin was going to do, but as soon as her heavy head touched the pillow, she just wanted to sleep forever.Marvin turned off the lights, and moonlight poured in through the window.He sat beside her, his gaze replacing his hands, caressing her eyebrows, her lips, gliding over her gently rising chest, her slender waist...He had many blasphemous thoughts in his mind.In fact, since he started liking Annabelle, he never had any relationship with other women.He did not lack physical needs, and with his background, it was actually very easy for him to find any kind of girl he wanted.Some people also advised him that a man should separate emotions from desires. It is acceptable to have an unattainable love in his heart, but he should not become sexless just for the sake of an unattainable love. It is normal to find a girl to warm the bed and seek comfort, as long as it is purely physical and n

    When Jax swiped his card and entered Marvin's apartment, Marvin had just finished taking a cold shower and was walking out of the shower room wrapped in a towel.Without even seeing the face of the incoming person clearly, they were immediately knocked unconscious to the ground.Kendrick walked behind Jax, glanced at Marvin lying on the ground, furrowed his brow, and strode into the bedroom.Annabelle was already asleep, her clothes intact, and she appeared to have not been bullied.Kendrick finally felt relieved and couldn't help but let out a sigh.It really doesn't let people relax at all.Afterwards, he picked up Annabelle and, as he passed by Jax, he paused for a moment and said, "The rest is up to you.""Yes, Boss."Kendrick held Annabelle and walked out of Marvin's house, and entered the neighboring house.He also had an apartment here, right next to Marvin's, but after marrying Annabelle, he hardly ever came back to live here.After entering the room, Kendrick first put Annabe

    "Don't worry, I wasn't interested in alcoholics."Kendrick spoke and pushed her hand away, but Annabelle, despite being drunk, was strong and grabbed his left hand, and her right hand came over.After a while of tossing and turning, Kendrick rubbed his forehead and said, "Anna, you really pushed me to this."After speaking, he took off his belt.Annabelle's eyes widened, unintentionally triggering Kendrick's hidden skill: domestic... domestic violence?"Kendrick, hitting someone is illegal!"Kendrick curved his lips and bit her earlobe, saying, "Darling, how could I bear to hit you."Annabelle became even more frightened. It wasn't just domestic violence, but also the evil expression she was looking at. Could it be that she wanted to..."Kendrick, I didn't have that kind of fetish!"Kendrick smiled slightly, "Anna knew quite a lot.""Really, my legs are still sore now, really cannot, not even in my dreams!"Her nervous appearance made Kendrick laugh."Was it that sour?"Annabelle nodd

    Annabelle snorted twice and then rubbed against his hand.Kendrick let out a long sigh and finally felt sorry for her. He didn't do anything to her anymore, he just kissed her face.I also felt a little scared in my heart. Fortunately, I brought her back tonight. Otherwise, if she had gone crazy with alcohol towards Marvin, she would have definitely gotten herself into trouble.However, before he and Jax arrived, Marvin actually had a long time alone with Annabelle, but he never made any advances towards her.Kendrick felt relieved that Annabelle had not been bullied, but he also felt a bit awkward.Marvin, this kid, has experienced all kinds of worldly temptations, and he is definitely not a gentleman with a pure and simple heart.But when it came to Annabelle, he understood the importance of respect.What does this mean? It can only mean that Marvin truly fell in love with Annabelle...The next morning, Annabelle groggily opened her eyes and saw a man's arm draped over her waist.An

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 382 Annabelle Felt Guilty

    Annabelle was actually quite aggrieved. She had only had a glass of juice, after all. It's not like she was binge drinking or anything...A few minutes later, the butler personally brought the meal upstairs.Annabelle had just taken a short nap again. As soon as she smelled the aroma of food, she immediately sat up and put on the pajamas that Kendrick had prepared for her, ready to go eat.All of a sudden, I became dizzy. Combined with the hangover and the fact that I had just exercised with someone, my steps wavered.Kendrick directly carried her to the edge of the dining table and couldn't help but tease her, "Do you still have the strength to hold a spoon? Or should I feed you?"Annabelle glared at him accusingly, saying, "Don't!"Kendrick ignored her and started eating alone, with a satisfied expression on his face after his triumph.Annabelle had a poor appetite and would feel full after just a few bites. Kendrick insisted that she eat a little more, otherwise her stomach would b

    Annabelle felt like crying, so she drank and messed things up, it's true.And when you got drunk, just go to sleep peacefully. Why do you have to satisfy yourself by messing with Kendrick, rubbing his head, and pinching his face?"Um... just now, didn't I already go back?"Kendrick raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, saying, "That was just a regular morning exercise, it doesn't count."He ate it all up early in the morning, how can that not count?The sausage in her mouth suddenly stopped tasting good. Annabelle put down her fork and knife, stood up gently, and planned to make a quick getaway.Kendrick, seeing that he was teasing her again, was about to really scare her, so he reached out and pulled bunny Anna back into his arms.He messed up her hair and pinched her face. "Now you're back."Annabelle's messy hair stood up; her eyes brightened. "Is that it?"Kendrick laughed and said, "What else then? What more do you want?"Having been let off so easily by Kendrick, Annabelle felt

    Annabelle's heart felt like a lump of cotton.Kendrick had brought other women here before.She suddenly remembered the words Master had reminded her of, emotionally, she was not Kendrick's only one.She remembered all the ambiguous things that happened between her and Kendrick again, no wonder he was so experienced and good at teasing, because he had done all these things to someone else before...Although Annabelle had long thought that he was a thirty-year-old man with normal needs, it was impossible for him to have never been with a woman before meeting her.And she could understand and accept his past romantic history, and she didn't have any so-called psychological cleanliness obsession.After all, Kendrick didn't know he would meet her, so there was no need for him to remain chaste for her.However, this lace headband looked very new.She had been married to Kendrick for half a year, and if it was placed here after their marriage, it meant that Kendrick was pursuing her while a

    Ten minutes later, Annabelle finally finished getting dressed and walked out of the bedroom, then followed the young master out of the suite.This was the young master’s private suite at the hotel. Annabelle wasn’t sure if it was where he stayed regularly. She only knew that the last time she was poisoned in South Lake City, she was brought here by him—so it felt somewhat familiar.They headed slowly toward the elevator.The young master was clearly aware her back was hurting, so he walked at a leisurely pace to match hers.As they walked, he asked casually, “You've been with Kendrick for a while now. Tired of him yet?”Annabelle glanced at him, but he wasn’t looking at her. His expression was calm, unreadable.She lowered her head and replied softly, “...No.”“Has he ever bullied you?”“Bullied... uh, no. He hasn’t.”Annabelle almost answered instinctively—Kendrick had “bullied” her too many times, though not in the way the young master meant. Realizing her slip, she instantly regret

    Annabelle called back, and the call was picked up before the first ring even ended."Anna, where are you? Are you okay?" Kendrick's anxious voice came through."I'm fine, don’t worry. I’m at the Young Master's place..."Kendrick was silent for two seconds. "What’s wrong with your voice?"Annabelle didn’t think there was anything wrong with her voice. But since she had just woken up and was still lying down, her tone wasn’t as clear as usual. Kendrick must’ve noticed."I just woke up... still lying down.""Is that so."His voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress some emotions.Annabelle quickly explained, "It’s not what you’re thinking.""I know," he paused, "When can you come back?""I’ll come now—ow..." Annabelle said as she tried to sit up, but pain in her waist forced her to lie back down."What’s wrong?""My back hurts."Kendrick went quiet again. "Can you come back today? I can take you to the hospital.""I can. Meet me at Central Hospital, I’ll ask the Young Master to

    Ryan replied, “My plan is underway. You all promised not to interfere with my pace.”“Unless your pace is too slow,” the man said with a pause. “Consider this a warning. If you keep stalling, your Anna might not be so lucky next time.”He hung up.In the blink of an eye, the man had vanished from Ryan’s view.Ryan clenched his fists. Blood from the wound on his arm dripped down to the ground.He hadn’t dared contact Anna publicly, precisely to avoid this kind of situation—afraid she’d become his weakness and be used to threaten him.And now, what he feared most had still happened.Kendrick had to die—whether to reclaim Anna or for his own reasons.But he hated being forced like this.Especially when they used Anna to push him.Glancing at the unconscious Anna in the back seat, Ryan calmed himself, got in the car, and drove away quickly.Annabelle didn’t know how long she’d been asleep.When she opened her eyes, the room around her gradually came into focus.She recognized this place.

    Annabelle still wanted to go forward to help, but Seraphina grabbed her arm.“If you go over there, the young master will have to save you too.”Hearing this, Annabelle snapped back to her senses and finally didn’t step forward, only watching anxiously in the young master’s direction.As he passed the gate, the young master grabbed a fire extinguisher and rushed to the car door. He smashed the front passenger window hard twice, shattering the glass.The trapped driver, Barry, immediately crawled out through the window.By then, security guards had also rushed over, each holding a fire extinguisher to put out the fire.The young master quickly walked back toward them.Just when Annabelle thought the danger had passed—Boom!A loud explosion burst from the car!The blast shockwave seemed to hit the young master. He staggered forward from the impact.“Young master!”Both Annabelle and Seraphina cried out at the same time.Annabelle endured the sharp pain in her waist and forced down her d

    What was Young Master doing at the Whitney Group?He had said before that he didn’t know much about Ryan. Running into him here today—could it be that Young Master was doing business with the the Whitney Group?Annabelle noticed that Seraphina was standing on Young Master's left side, while on his right was another man in a suit, holding documents and reporting something as they walked. Three more suited men followed closely behind.It seemed clear—this was a business visit.Seraphina inadvertently turned her head and glanced in Annabelle’s direction. She seemed to have spotted her and said something to Young Master.Annabelle saw Young Master turn and look toward her, where she sat in the car.Since he had seen her, Annabelle decided to go say hello.Ever since their phone call in North City, she hadn’t spoken to Young Master. This was a good chance to thank him in person for warning her and Kendrick that their breakfast had been poisoned—if not for that call, the consequences would’

    Scott held Julissa by the shoulder and gave her a light pat. “You should count yourself lucky it was me you met.”“What do you mean?”“If you’d run into a real scumbag, you’d probably get played in circles without even knowing it.”“Mr. Nichols, why are you saying that all of a sudden…” Julissa pouted. “You’re really good at hitting where it hurts.”Scott paused, rubbing his brow. She had already met a scumbag before.That brat Liam had completely fooled her—planning a wedding with her on one side while sleeping with another woman on the other. Julissa might be easy to deceive, but she had one redeeming quality: once she saw through someone, she left immediately, no second chances, no regrets. Even if she and Liam had been childhood sweethearts for over ten years, it didn’t matter.“Alright, I won’t bring it up again,” he said, kissing her on the forehead. The most urgent matter now was dealing with the Keller family and the massive trouble they posed.—Elsewhere, Annabelle and Kendr

    Looking at the wound on her face, Julissa instantly panicked.Would it leave a scar?But then she quickly comforted herself—it’s fine, Anna would definitely help her heal without a trace. After all, Anna had suffered serious injuries before and still fully recovered.Soon, Scott came out carrying a first-aid kit.Seeing how well-stocked it was, Julissa was a bit surprised. “Wow, this thing’s fully loaded. Why do you even have surgical scissors?”Scott glanced at her. “Why do you ask so many questions?”“I’m just curious.”He didn’t answer and started cleaning her wound first to prevent infection.Only then did Julissa start crying out in pain.“Just hold on for a bit.”“But I really hate pain! When I was a kid, I could only get shots after I fell asleep—so I wouldn’t see it coming.”As Scott moved in with a cotton swab to apply medicine, she screamed before he even touched her.He was speechless. “Weren’t you just smiling a moment ago?”“I hadn’t seen my wound yet, so I wasn’t scared.

    The wound was about an inch long, right on her cheek, and blood had already started to seep out.Julissa wiped her face, hissing slightly, and when she saw the blood on her fingers, her eyes widened in shock.Annabelle quickly figured it out—when Heather slapped Julissa earlier, she must have twisted her diamond ring around. So when her hand struck Julissa’s face, the ring cut into her cheek.By now, Heather had already climbed to her feet, screaming hysterically at Annabelle, “Even my parents never hit me, and you dare to slap me?!”Julissa let out a cold laugh. “Maybe that’s exactly why you’re so spoiled and uncivilized.”That one jab hit a nerve. Heather lost it. “Say that again! Who are you calling uncivilized? Who?!”Screaming, she lunged at Julissa, aiming to grab her hair.But before she could touch Julissa, her wrist was caught in a firm grip.“If you dare lay another finger on her, you won’t need this hand anymore.”With that, Scott yanked Heather away from Julissa.Heather s

    "So you'd better figure out how to deal with them as soon as possible. If you need my help, just say the word."Scott thought back to the look of rage on Heather’s face that day at the club when she saw Julissa. His mood grew heavier.Heather had an extreme personality, and her father was cunning and ruthless. The father-daughter duo was capable of anything.Regardless, he was genuinely grateful for what Kendrick had said today—and the investigation he’d quietly done on his behalf.“Looks like I need to find Samuel’s weak spot fast. Still, thank you, Kendrick.”Kendrick waved it off. “Actually, I should be thanking you. And this—this is my token of appreciation.”As he spoke, he pulled a contract from the briefcase he carried—this was the file he’d asked Jaime to deliver earlier during lunch.Kendrick’s newly developed property project came with fully furnished apartments, and among the amenities, he had incorporated a smart home system that happened to align perfectly with the Nichol
