I wish it were you Chapter 10 Annabelle's Guardian
Annabelle didn't get it. She thought, 'How come Mom hates it so much when she sees that I've restored my face? Am I not her daughter?'Annabelle felt disappointed, though she had long known how cruel Briley was.The reactions of Jocelyn Sanchez, the eldest daughter of the Sanchez family, and Myla Sanchez, the second eldest daughter of the Sanchez family, were within her expectations.They complimented Annabelle on her beauty and asked her why she had not taken off her veil all these years.Myla meant what she said. She was always an honest and straightforward person who was used to speaking and doing things straight.Jocelyn, on the contrary, was being a bit sarcastic. She was in fact mocking Annabelle for being pretentious.Annabelle felt uncomfortable being stared at. She explained her situation briefly."I've long restored my face. I wore the veil, only because I was used to it. That's it."She didn't want to say anything anymore, and she wanted them to stop staring at her.Kendric

Marvin was at the Grand Hotel.He was having a nice meal with his friends.When chatting, he checked his phone and happened to see Raphael's post an hour ago.He thought, "Annabelle? The bumpkin I dumped?"Due to curiosity, he clicked on the photo.Although there was only her side face in the photo, he could tell that she was indeed beautiful. She was the kind of beauty that could wear one down bit by bit, and she was different from any woman he had ever met.In short, she was as quiet and peaceful as a brook in a mountain.He suddenly realized something. She was the girl he fell in love with at first glance that day.He thought, "Seriously? The one that I'm so attracted to is Annabelle, the one I dumped?"I hit on her that day. Now that I think about it, I feel so embarrassed."I bet she is mocking me deep down."The point is, the one I have a crush on becomes my sister-in-law in an instant."And I'm the one who leads to this result."I feel terrible.""I have no appetite anymore. I'

That afternoon, Kendrick took Annabelle home and then went to work as usual.Annabelle spent the entire afternoon making ointment for him. When she had all the ointment separated and packed, she was so exhausted that she fell asleep on the sofa.In a daze, she felt strong arms wrap around her.When she opened her eyes, she saw Kendrick holding her and placing her gently on the soft bed."You're awake?"His voice was husky, he smelled of alcohol, and his tie was slightly pulled open, making him look kind of lazy and sexy.Annabelle recognized at once that it wasn't her room.She sat up quickly and moved back, her back against the head of the bed."What do you want to do?"Seeing her pale, wary face, Kendrick narrowed his eyes and thought that she was so ungrateful.A few minutes earlier, he saw that she was asleep on the sofa like a poor kitten, so he carried her into the room to rest.Her door was closed, whereas his room door was open. He couldn't open the door with her in his arms,

Kendrick turned the tap on full blast and took a shower for half an hour before barely managing to cool himself down.Before he came out of the bathroom, he texted Trey."Trey, come stay with me for a few days. Come here now. If Mrs. Gregory asks you, tell her that Grandpa didn't believe that she and I were really married, so he asked you to supervise us to have babies."Trey was stunned. He thought, "Is Mr. Gregory saying that Mrs. Gregory doesn't want to bear his kids?"Kendrick grew up around Trey, and they were like a family. Therefore, Trey knew Kendrick well.While analyzing, Trey realized something serious. He wondered whether Kendrick had slept with Annabelle or not."Mr. Gregory, if I may ask, do you and Ms. Sanchez sleep in separate rooms?"Kendrick was speechless, figuring that Trey was so smart."Why do you think I want you to be here? Remember, come here quietly and take the guest bedroom on the first floor. Do not make a sound.""I see, Mr. Gregory."Trey looked serious

"Don't go out just yet." Kendrick's lustful eyes were mixed with a bit of embarrassment.Trey hadn't arrived yet, so he didn't dare to let Annabelle out. If she found out he was lying, it would be too embarrassing for him."If you want to be treated, go to the living room," Annabelle said coldly.Yet he refused to move aside. Annabelle didn't want to push him, as she wanted no physical contact with him, and she blushed due to anger."Move!"Kendrick was kind of upset at the moment.He knew he had just lost his cool, but he was also upset that Annabelle was so angry.The most important thing for him now was to come up with an excuse to stop her from walking outside the room."Don't be afraid. I won't do anything to you again. It's just that Trey doesn't know about my illness, and if he sees you applying ointment to me, he'll ask me, and I don't know how to explain it to him."Frowning, Annabelle looked at him, wondering if he was telling the truth.Seeing her hesitation, Kendrick said

The next morning, Annabelle woke up naturally.She comfortably turned over but then froze."Eh? Why am I in bed?" she wondered.Annabelle sat up nervously and looked down at her clothes. She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that her clothes were intact.This was her first time sleeping in the same room as a man, but she could sleep soundly. How careless she was.Annabelle looked up at the sofa and saw Kendrick lying there.It turned out that he had changed places with Annabelle.Kendrick was tall, looking very uncomfortable on the two-seater sofa.Annabelle couldn't help but feel a bit sorry, but at the same time, she felt warm. For now, she forgot that Kendrick kissed and hugged her last night.Just then, Kendrick opened his eyes and looked at Annabelle.Annabelle was like an elementary school student who was caught in the act. Flustered, she said stiffly, "Good morning."Kendrick sat up with a smile and asked, "Did you have a good sleep last night?"Annabelle nodded. Of cour

"Yes," Trey smiled. "Mr. Ethan Gregory asked me to take good care of you and Mr. Gregory these days. He won't feel at ease if others come."Annabelle's heart sank. Trey would come all this time...So, she would need to continue sleeping in the cunning Kendrick's room during this period.Annabelle seriously said to Trey, "It's not convenient for you to come and go between two places. We can take care of ourselves. Don't worry.""Not at all," Trey smiled and waved his hand. "I often came to take care of Mr. Gregory before. Please don't overthink it. I have to go now. I'll talk to you later."He left after finishing his words.More words would lead to more mistakes, so it was better to leave now.Annabelle frowned and sat on the dining chair, worried. What should she do?Where should she sleep at night? She couldn't let Kendrick sleep on the sofa all the time.But that was not important. The point was Kendrick had a strong desire for sex. Annabelle felt like a rabbit being brought to a t
Last Updated : 2024-12-17I wish it were you Chapter 17 Their Relationship
Back when Annabelle was humiliated in front of everyone at the engagement party, she wasn't sad, but now, after she was spooked by the little flame, she became like this.It was obvious that she was deeply traumatized by that fire.Kendrick felt sorry for what she had been through and blamed himself for his carelessness."I'm so careless," Kendrick wiped her tears and said. "I won't let you cook again.""I'm fine..."Annabelle composed herself, trying to break free from Kendrick's embrace. Then in the next second, Kendrick held her up and trundled toward the living room."Put me down...""Your legs went limp. Are you sure you can walk?" Kendrick joked.He put Annabelle down on the couch and turned on the TV for her."Wait here. I'll cook. I'll call you when the breakfast is ready. Be good."Kendrick rubbed her head.Annabelle smoothed down her messy hair and watched Kendrick striding into the kitchen.Turning on the stove, Kendrick started making breakfast skillfully.Annabelle stared

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.
I wish it were you Chapter 1067 He Really Cares About Her
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
I wish it were you Chapter 1066 Anna Is Afraid of Him
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’
I wish it were you Chapter 1065 Back Pain
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
