Julissa was on the verge of tears. She really wanted to ask for an extension—just two more days so she could find a new place. But clearly, that wasn’t an option.

The landlady felt bad about the situation, so she promptly refunded Julissa’s security deposit and the remaining rent while repeatedly apologizing.

From that afternoon until late into the night, Julissa was busy packing up her things.

Even though she had three days, she had work on Monday and Tuesday, leaving no time to move. So she decided to pack everything over the weekend.

The larger furniture pieces that she couldn’t take right away were left in the landlady’s basement. The landlady reassured her that the basement hadn’t been sold, so she could store her belongings there until she found a new apartment.

That was at least a small relief amidst the chaos.

And just like that, in a rush, Julissa packed up, returned the keys, and left her little home with only a suitcase and a backpack.

Her plan was to stay at her parents' h

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 846 A Long Journey

    Julissa walked through the midnight streets, the cold wind howling around her, but her heart was full of hope.As long as she was heading toward Scott, the distance didn’t seem to matter.She imagined the moment she would see him—he would surely give her a warm hug, offer her a clean and cozy room, and tell her, Stay as long as you want. It’s okay. Don’t be afraid. I’m here.Just thinking about it made her smile.She passed by people coming home from late-night shifts, hurrying along the streets.She, too, was heading home—or at least, that’s what it felt like.Along the way, she saw stray cats gathered around garbage bins.Thinking of the little white kitten Anna had adopted, she suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for these poor creatures. She wanted to take one with her.But considering that she was already imposing on Scott—boyfriend or not, there were limits—she decided against showing up at his doorstep with a stray cat in tow.Still, she wondered—if they ever lived together, would

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 847 My CEO Boyfriend is So Fierce

    “I have nowhere to stay, I want to go home, but I lost my keys and phone...”Julissa said this with a heavy heart, tears threatening to fall as she spoke.She knew it was her own carelessness, or else none of this would have happened. But when someone cares for you, it's easy to amplify your sense of grievance. At this moment, Julissa felt utterly helpless, with all her emotions spilling out at once.However, Scott didn’t hug her. Instead, he nodded at the security guard behind her, thanking him before the guard left. Then, frowning, he asked, “Did you walk here?”Julissa nodded.“Why didn’t you take a taxi?”Julissa looked up at him. “I don’t have money for the fare.”Scott rubbed his forehead. “You should’ve had the driver drop you off. Do you think I wouldn’t help pay for the fare?”“…Oh, right.”Back then, driven by enthusiasm and a fearless attitude, she had chosen to walk. Now, looking back, she realized she didn’t need to go through all that trouble.“Julissa, you’ve really cha

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 848 They’re Wearing Couple Pajamas

    As soon as Julissa got close to him, she didn’t want to think about anything else. She wasn’t being stubborn anymore, nor was she afraid. She reached up and wrapped her arms around Scott’s waist.“Can you stop being mad at me? I’m already so tired. To come find you, my legs feel like they’re going to break.”“You could’ve avoided walking yourself to the point of exhaustion!”Though Scott was still scolding her, his tone had softened, and there was a hint of tenderness in his voice.Seeing his little girlfriend, so pitifully snuggling into his arms, even someone with a heart made of stone would start to feel warmth.Scott finally patted her shoulder and sighed. “I’m happy that you came to find me, but I’m angry because I’m worried about you.”Julissa lifted her head. Her eyes were red from crying, but they were also sparkling. Just because of his one sentence, she felt like all the sadness had been washed away in an instant.Scott suddenly thought of his little Corgi.Since he and his

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 849 Mr. Nichols’s Comfort

    Julissa smiled at the beautiful senior, thinking to herself, We’re not even that familiar with each other. You’re just someone staying here for a couple of days, so why are you acting so friendly with me?It wasn’t that Julissa was deliberately being difficult, but the overly familiar behavior made her feel uncomfortable.After all, she was the woman who had appeared at her CEO boyfriend’s house!Yvette glanced at Scott, then met Julissa’s eyes, and smiled. “I thought I just heard you call him ‘Mr. Nichols’—aren’t you two already together?”Julissa blinked and gave a slight smile. “Senior, think of it as a bit of fun.”At that, Julissa noticed that Yvette’s expression froze for a moment.Julissa pursed her lips, saying nothing further.After a brief silence, Yvette smiled again. “By the way, Julissa, don’t misunderstand. I came back to the country to find someone, and I don’t have a place to stay right now, so I’m just staying with Scott for a while.”She probably shouldn’t have said

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 850 Bad Man

    Scott looked at his little girlfriend’s expression and narrowed his eyes.She wasn’t upset because he scolded her earlier; it was because he hadn’t contacted her these past couple of days.But Julissa wasn’t clingy, at least not yet.They had only been dating for a month, and it was supposed to be the honeymoon phase, yet she didn’t text or call him every day. Sometimes, when he got busy and couldn’t go to the hospital, he would only visit her after two days. Julissa never asked him why he hadn’t contacted her in those two days or why he hadn’t come to see her.Scott could understand it as her being sensible and not wanting to interrupt his work, but he had still wondered—did this ungrateful little thing miss him at all? Did she even care about him as her boyfriend?Now, suddenly, she was questioning him.Was it because she saw Yvette at his house? Was she jealous? Did she think that because he hadn’t contacted her these last couple of days, he was secretly spending time with another

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 851 Do You Want to Shower in His Room?

    Julissa looked a bit awkward and mumbled, “I’m all covered in dust…”Scott was so clean, and she felt like a little dirtball in comparison. So, as soon as he picked her up, she tried to make sure her head and face didn’t touch his clean pajamas.Scott sighed. “I don’t mind.”Saying that, he tightened his arms, forcing Julissa to press up against his chest.Once they were in the elevator, he glanced down at his little girlfriend in his arms. She was blushing and had a little smile on her lips.“Do I look that good?”Julissa looked up at him, her eyes shining. She pursed her lips and nodded slightly.“Not worried I’m a bad guy anymore?” Scott teased with a smile.She shook her head and whispered, “If you’re bad, then so be it. Who told me I like you…”His heart fluttered a little. How could he not be happy when this little girl liked him so recklessly? But he also sighed quietly, thinking to himself, "Well, at least you ended up with me. If you were to meet someone irresponsible, and yo

    “That’s enough, Mr. Nichols,” she interrupted him. “I don’t need all those complicated settings.”“Alright, then. You go ahead and wash up. Call me if you need anything.”Julissa nodded silently. If something went wrong halfway through her bath, could she actually call him in?Some rather colorful images flashed through her mind—doing this and that in the bathroom…She quickly shook her head, feeling like she was beyond saving.Scott didn’t say anything more and turned to leave the bathroom.Suddenly, a thought struck Julissa, and she quickly called after him. “Mr. Nichols, my luggage is still downstairs!”“I’ll go get it now. You just take your bath.”“The main thing is… my change of clothes is in my suitcase…”Scott paused for a moment. “I’ll bring it up for you.”Julissa wanted to ask him, How do you even know what I’ll wear? But before she could, he had already left the bathroom. She decided not to overthink it and just let him handle it.Once the bathtub was filled, Julissa slipp

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 853 Who’s Flirting with Who?

    Scott responded casually, “So? Do you need me to carry you out again?”Julissa’s face heated up. Sometimes, Mr. Nichols is really so… improper.This also confirmed one thing—this guy was definitely the reserved-but-secretly-wild type, and his desire seemed very strong.How do you deal with a man like that? Simple—flirt with him, tease him, but never let him have his way! lol…The corners of Julissa’s mouth curled into a mischievous smile. She was starting to feel more like a seductive villainess.She cleared her throat and said, “That’s not what I meant. I just wanted you to hand me my clothes.”As soon as she finished speaking, Scott pushed open the door and entered, holding a set of her sleepwear.Julissa had already hidden herself beneath the water, only her delicate collarbones visible above the surface—one of her proudest features.She pointed to the chair beside her and, blushing, said, “Mr. Nichols, just leave them there.”But instead of placing the clothes down, Scott caught h

    Agatha’s face turned deathly pale. “Dereon, I didn’t!”Sid let out a cold snort. “At first, when we didn’t see Annabelle, you tried to seduce Kendrick directly. You wanted to sleep with him, then turn around and cling to him as his mistress, living a worry-free life, didn’t you?”Agatha shook her head in panic, glancing between Sid and Dereon. “No, I didn’t. That’s not true.”She anxiously grabbed Dereon’s arm. “Dereon, don’t listen to his nonsense. I was just thinking, if I could seduce Kendrick and sleep with him first, then when he dies, it would solidify the story that he forced himself on a waitress!”“If it were that easy, why would we wait until today to act?” Dereon stepped closer to her. “That Kendrick, like the young master, has long been bewitched by Annabelle and doesn’t even glance at other women. That’s why I arranged for you to hide in the room and fake the scene after he died.”Just mentioning Annabelle ignited a fire in Dereon’s chest.What Kendrick thought of Annabel

    Annabelle walked out of the bedroom and came over to the dining table, standing in front of Kendrick.Kendrick was cutting into a plate of German sausage and hadn’t started eating yet. He looked up at her and smiled, “Why are you back again? Don’t want me to eat?”Caught red-handed, Annabelle felt a little embarrassed.Still, she reached out, took his hand, and set down the knife. “How about… you lie down with me for a bit first, and then I’ll eat with you?”Kendrick looked at her, amusement flickering in his eyes.His gaze made her face flush with heat, and even her breathing grew unsteady.“Anna, if you want the ox to work, you have to feed it first.”Her cheeks turned even redder. “That’s not what I meant…”Laughing, Kendrick pulled her into his arms, settling her on his lap. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he said, “After sleeping in the same bed for so many days, if I still can’t tell what you want, wouldn’t that be a waste of all that sleep?”He whispered the last part again

    Kendrick sighed against her shoulder, clearly reluctant, but still got out of bed, buttoned up his shirt, and went to open the door.Annabelle followed him out, intending to grab a glass of water.As the door opened, she glanced over—turns out it really was room service.A male staff member was pushing a food cart, and a female staff member stood in front of it, holding a dry-cleaned suit in her arms.“Mr. Gregory, sorry to disturb you. This is the breakfast you ordered, and your clothes have been cleaned as well,” the female staff member said in a gentle, soft-spoken voice.Annabelle couldn’t help but glance at her. The woman was wearing a red hotel uniform skirt set, with an alluring figure, good looks, and a refined demeanor—clearly more polished than the average staff member.Normally, Annabelle would appreciate a pretty girl with a quick glance and move on.But this woman made her frown—and made her stay in the living room instead of heading back to the bedroom after finishing he

    Annabelle’s face flushed bright red.What the VP was implying—any adult could understand.She could feel the ambiguous gazes of the others, making her even more embarrassed.Kendrick gave a cold “tsk” and glanced at his vice president. “If you can’t come up with a good idea later, I’m holding you responsible.”“lol, no problem!”he replied heartily.Kendrick looked at Annabelle and smiled. “Come on, I’ll take you to the room.”He took her hand and led her into the bedroom.Once the door closed, Annabelle hurriedly explained, “I didn’t know you were in a meeting—mmph…”Before she could finish, Kendrick had already pinned her against the door, capturing her lips in a deep, heated kiss.Annabelle couldn’t handle such intensity and felt like she was suffocating. She lightly patted his shoulder, signaling him to stop.Kendrick pulled back just slightly, his lips still brushing hers as he whispered, “Anna, I’m really happy you came to see me.”She lowered her head, biting her lip, but he gen

    Dereon wore a black baseball cap, head down, looking rushed as he headed toward the boarding gate.He was about to board a flight to North City.His phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he answered, “Young Master, I’m about to board… understood…”At that moment, a familiar figure brushed past him. Dereon paused, frowning as he turned to look back.The crowd was bustling with passengers preparing to board. That fleeting figure was now nowhere to be seen. Had he imagined it?But even if it really was Annabelle, she was walking in the opposite direction of the boarding line, which meant she wasn’t getting on this flight.As long as she didn’t interfere, everything would be fine.He continued the call, “Yes, I’m listening, Young Master… Don’t worry. Tomorrow morning, just wait and watch the news.”After hanging up, he proceeded with the check-in process alongside the crowd.Dereon had booked an economy class ticket. Once on the plane, he turned off his phone and began mentally reviewing ev

    Julissa curled herself into the blanket.For Scott, that bar was the place they first met—perhaps even where he fell in love with her at first sight. It was a beautiful memory.But for Julissa, it remained a grey area she had never managed to escape.Whenever she thought about how a stranger had taken her to a hotel that night, how she had lost her virginity there, and might have even been photographed or recorded, her scalp tingled with regret and dread.She used to want revenge on that gigolo, but now, the thing she feared most was encountering him again.She just hoped that incident would stay buried in the past, never to be mentioned again.She held up her left hand in front of her eyes, using the moonlight streaming through the window to look at the ring Scott had given her. She really liked him—loved him—and she hoped he would never find out about that foolish mistake she had made...After leaving the bedroom, Scott went to the dining room. He poured himself half a glass of whis

    Julissa looked at him timidly, seemingly wanting to comfort him but not knowing where to start.She bit her lip and carefully asked, “Did you have a fight with Auntie?”“You heard something?”Julissa’s eyes became even more nervous. “Mr. Nichols, I didn’t mean to eavesdrop. Please don’t be mad…”Only then did Scott realize that he had sounded a bit harsh due to his anxiety, and it had clearly scared her.“Fool, I’m not blaming you.” He pulled Julissa into his arms. “What did you hear?”“I just heard you say that when Julian had a high fever as a child, you took him to get an IV and stuff…”Scott let out a sigh of relief. It seemed like Julissa had only heard the latter part.As long as she didn’t hear the earlier part.Earlier, when he arrived at the apartment building, he had deliberately tricked her, saying he wasn’t coming back, just to play a joke on her—but he ended up scaring her to tears.That’s when he realized that Julissa had been hurt before by Liam and lacked a sense of se

    Julissa immediately said, “I’ve got a great memory, Mr. Nichols, so don’t you go back on your word.”“I won’t. I’ll give it to you in a bit.”Julissa had been eagerly waiting for so long, but he was still teasing her. She wasn’t happy about that. “Mr. Nichols, if your ‘little surprise’ isn’t worth at least a few hundred thousand, you’ll owe me big time for all this waiting.”Scott chuckled, “Isn’t that a bit low of a bar? Just a few hundred thousand is enough?”Julissa ignored him. To a capitalist like him, money was just a meaningless number—completely irrational. What she really wanted to know now was: what exactly was this surprise gift?Since he said he’d give it to her later, it had to be a physical item.“Mr. Nichols, just let me see it now, please? Why wait? I’ve been waiting all night!”But no matter how she pouted or pleaded, Scott stayed calm and composed. He simply said, “Be good. I’ll give it to you once we’re in bed.”Julissa started wondering—what kind of gift could only

    Julissa cast a sidelong glance at the takeout bags. One large box of fried chicken, two cans of premixed peach cocktails—her favorite—and… a bowl of Frozen yogurt?Wait. Frozen yogurt?She remembered eyeing it longingly when they passed that shop on the way home. She hadn’t said a word though, especially once Mr. Nichols had already driven past. She hadn’t had the heart to ask him to turn back.But clearly, he’d noticed.Looking at Scott again, the fury in her heart had significantly waned.He pulled out the yogurt and looked at her with an arched brow. “Not eating, huh?”Julissa huffed and turned her head away dramatically.As if she'd surrender to the wicked capitalist for just a bowl of yogurt.Scott shrugged, “Guess I’ll eat it, then. Can’t let it melt. Would be a waste.”She rolled her eyes inwardly. As if he—Mr. Perfectionist—would ever stoop to eating something as common as a street snack.But then… he actually started eating it.Julissa's brows furrowed as she peeked at him. H
