The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 121: A Clean Break
YULIAI called my dad during a slow moment at work. He answered on the second ring.“Hello, sweetheart.”“Hi, Dad.”“You sound happy.”I smiled as I leaned back in my chair. “I have something to tell you.”“Go ahead.”“Belov wants to send me to London.”His voice was filled with excitement. “London?”I giggled. “Yes.”“Yulia, that's wonderful!”“You haven't even heard everything yet,” I joked.“I don't need to. If they're sending you there, it means you've done something right.”My smile widened.He had always been proud of me, but hearing the excitement in his voice still warmed my heart.“They have a major international criminal case,” I explained. “Their London partner needs lawyers who understand Russian law and can work on the Russian side of the case. Belov says I'm one of the people they're considering.”“And you're considering it?”“I want to.”“So?”“I haven't officially accepted yet, but I think this is too good an opportunity to turn down.”“You're right. And I'm happy for
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 120: What Money Couldn't Give Me
KENDRICKI was dressed for work, my suit perfectly fitted, my watch secured around my wrist, and my phone already filled with notifications. I picked up my jacket from the back of the chair, about to leave my bedroom when I heard hurried footsteps coming down the hallway.“Daddy!”I turned just as a small figure came rushing through the open door.A grin immediately spread across my face. “Nalani.”She ran straight toward me, and I caught her in my arms before she could crash into my legs.“There’s my girl.”I lifted her off the floor and held her against me, covering her cheeks with kisses.She giggled, squirming in my arms. “Daddy, stop!”Her little voice made me laugh even harder.I kissed her forehead. “Daddy missed you.”Finally, I lowered her slightly but kept my arms around her. “How are you, Daddy's princess?”She placed both little hands on my cheeks and smiled. “I'm fine, Daddy.”“You're fine?”She nodded enthusiastically. “Vewyyy fine!”I chuckled. “Good. That's what I lik
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 119: The Past Awaits
YULIATHREE YEARS LATER. . .“Okay, baby, we'll talk later. I'm leaving for work now. Bye!”“Have a good day,” Alexei replied.“You too.” I ended the call and grabbed my keys before heading out of my apartment.Yeah, I moved from my mother’s mansion.I locked the door behind me and walked toward the elevator, pressing the button. A few moments later, the doors opened, and I stepped inside.As the elevator descended, I caught my reflection in the mirrored wall.Twenty-six now. A qualified lawyer and independent.I smiled to myself.There had been a time when I couldn't imagine my life without the people and places I'd grown up around. Now I had built something completely different. I started at Belov & Associates as a young lawyer trying to prove I deserved a place among people with far more experience than me. I had worked late, studied case files until my eyes hurt, spent countless hours in court, and learned from every mistake I made. Sergei had never made things easy for me, but
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 118: Something Was Missing
YULIAThree weeks had passed, and without me realizing it, Alexei had become a comfortable part of my life.We talked almost every day. Sometimes it was a good-morning message before work. Other times we spent hours talking about absolutely nothing. He was easy to be around, patient, funny, and thoughtful in ways I hadn't expected. I really enjoyed his company.Now, I sat on my bed with my laptop open beside me, talking to Adeline over a video call. She had been asking questions about Alexei for the past ten minutes, and I couldn't help smiling at how invested she seemed in my relationship.“Sooo. . .” she said, narrowing her eyes at me through the screen, “give me the latest update. How is Mr. Alexei doing?”I laughed softly. “Why do you sound like you're conducting an interview?”“Because I need details,” she said, completely serious. “You disappeared to Russia, broke my heart by leaving me here, and now you're out there living your best life with a mysterious man. I deserve upda
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 117: The Thought I Couldn't Ignore
KENDRICKI stayed in my office long after most of the employees had gone home, reviewing a series of reports for Project Atlas. I stared at the same set of figures for several minutes when my phone rang.Glancing at the screen, I saw Victor's name.I answered the call and sank back in my chair. “What?”“It's Friday night,” Victor said.I frowned slightly. “And?”“And you are coming out for drinks with us.”I chuckled. “Last time I went out for drinks, someone ended up pregnant.”Victor burst out laughing. “That was one time, Kendrick.”“One time was enough.”“Don't be dramatic. Damon and I are already making plans, and we're expecting you to show up.”I glanced at the documents scattered across my desk. Lots of work waiting for me, but for once, I didn't feel like spending another Friday night alone in my office.“I have work to do anyway.”Victor groaned dramatically. “You always have work to do. You're becoming unbearable.”“I run a company.”“You also own a house, have a wife, an
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 116: Learning to Love Again
YULIAI was halfway through reviewing a case file when someone knocked lightly on my office door.“Come in, please.”The door opened. I looked up from the documents in front of me.One of my colleagues stepped inside carrying a beautiful bouquet of flowers.My eyebrows lifted.“These are for you,” she said, smiling.I stared at the bouquet.The flowers were arranged beautifully, a mixture of soft pink roses, white lilies, and small clusters of delicate baby's breath. The arrangement was elegant without being too extravagant, wrapped in simple cream paper and tied with a dark green ribbon.“For me?”She laughed. “Yes, Yulia. Unless you know another Yulia around here.”I smiled and accepted the flowers. “Who brought them?”She shrugged. “Check it out. There's a card.”I checked. Sure enough, a small cream envelope was tucked between the flowers.“Thank you.”She nodded and walked out.I retrieved the card from the bouquet and opened it.Yulia,I hope these brighten your day as much as
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 3: The Kiss That Shouldn’t Have Happened
YULIA“This is it?” I asked, glancing around the parking lot filled with cars. “Yes.” Kendrick parked his car and turned to me. “Ever been to a street race?”I shook my head wildly, speechless all of a sudden. His expression barely changed, but his eyes said otherwise . “Then prepare yourself. Yo
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 2: She's Gonna Be A Problem
KENDRICK“What were they thinking, letting her live with you?” Victor asked, leaning back lazily in the chair across from my desk like he owned the space.“Safety.” I shrugged, flipping through the folder in front of me without bothering to look up. “Apparently, her father thinks London will collap
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 1: Close Enough To Burn
YULIA“We’re almost there, baby girl.” My father watched me as I angled towards the side window, lost in my thoughts.“I still can’t believe you eloped and got married.” I glanced at him, and he was smiling.“Well… I can’t be single forever. I’m ready to settle down and spend the rest of my life wi
The Wrong Kind Of Love CHAPTER 5: Feeling The Moment
YULIA“So you’re telling me that you’re living with the Kendrick Fernsby?” Adeline asked dramatically, raising both hands to make quotation marks in the air. I laughed, taking another sip of my pineapple smoothie. I had decided to meet her at The Good Life Eatery because their smoothies were ridic
