I wish it were you のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1081 - チャプター 1090

Being tightly held in the young master’s arms, Seraphina’s heart pounded like a drum.She was getting more and more greedy. At first, she only wanted a quick hug and to leave right after. But now, she just wanted to stay one second longer—just one more second.And with the injuries on the young master’s back, he couldn’t sleep on his back. He’d probably stay in this position the whole night. As long as she didn’t move, he might not even realize she was there.With that thought, she nestled in his arms more peacefully.Just a little longer… I’ll go back to my room soon… Just a little longer……The next morning, Seraphina felt the hand around her waist stir slightly and then retreat.Her heart jumped, and she opened her eyes wide.Judging from the light outside, it was early morning, and the young master behind her was clearly awake.She lay stiffly in bed, completely unsure what to do.She quickly shut her eyes again, pretending to sleep, all the while scolding herself—How could I have

Kendrick paused with the knife in his hand, then resumed cutting the sausage slowly and deliberately.“If you want to say something, just say it. If not, I won’t ask.”Annabelle sighed and felt compelled to explain.She had stayed in a hotel with the young master once, but that was when she was still a child.Kendrick glanced at her and took a bite of sausage, chewing silently.Annabelle felt a little unnerved, like he was chewing on her instead.“Kendrick, could you not look at me like that? It’s creepy.”He stared at her again for a moment, then finally shifted his gaze back to his plate and said coolly,“I thought you hadn’t been back to the city since going to Springvale Temple… Didn’t expect you’d already stayed in a hotel with him when you were that young.”Annabelle quickly added that yes, they stayed in the same hotel suite, but not in the same room, and nothing remotely ambiguous happened.She emphasized her young age—meaning, there couldn’t possibly have been anything improp

"I wasn’t! I was just thinking... if Linda's condition isn’t serious, she might change her mind about a lot of things. That male escort guy tried to negotiate with you, didn’t he? If she doesn’t need him anymore, you won’t have to go through with that, either."Kendrick narrowed his eyes. The more the little woman explained, the more he felt she had some sneaky thoughts going on.Of course, it wasn’t that she wanted to try anything exciting with the escort herself—probably just pure curiosity. She likely wanted to know what a male escort was really like…Still, it was enough to make Kendrick feel a little sour.“Let’s go home first. I’ll ask Marvin later if he still needs me to step in.”…Over on Marvin’s end, he took Linda to the hospital for a full check-up, and the results came out the same day.It wasn’t stomach cancer—just a very severe gastric ulcer.Turns out the small clinic she went to before had likely misdiagnosed her due to limited medical capability.But the doctor warne

After finishing his call, Kendrick returned to Annabelle’s side and gently patted her arm. “Anna, let’s go inside and sleep.”Annabelle kept her eyes closed, pretending to be asleep.Kendrick didn’t insist. He simply picked her up in his arms and carried her back to the bedroom.That night, Annabelle had a dream that completely shattered her worldview.She dreamed of an incredibly gorgeous man showing up at her house to declare war, claiming that Kendrick was in love with him!Cat-cat Coco jumped onto the man's head and scratched his face. But the man still said, “Even with a scar on my face, I’m still more beautiful than you. Men are visual creatures—that’s why Kendrick loves me.”Then her bestie Julissa suddenly appeared, and Annabelle quickly asked, “Julissa, who’s prettier, me or him?”Julissa stabbed her right in the heart, sighing regretfully. “Anna, to be honest… he is just a tiny bit better looking.”That was the final straw—Annabelle was so mad she woke up.When she did, the

Annabelle broke out in a cold sweat, but there was also a trace of defiance as she retorted, "Then why did you lie to me, saying you were going to a social gathering?" It was because of this lie that she started suspecting something.At this moment, the waiter arrived with the dishes, and Kendrick didn’t immediately answer her.After the waiter left, Annabelle continued to wait for his answer, but Kendrick casually said, "Let’s eat first."Was that avoiding the question? Or did he not want to discuss it during dinner?Since he didn’t want to talk about Frost, Annabelle decided not to bring it up either. After all, she already knew that no matter why Kendrick didn’t tell her about meeting Frost, there was no ambiguous relationship between them.So, Annabelle quietly ate her food.Maybe it was because she had already drunk too much juice, but after just a few bites, she felt full. She told Kendrick to take his time while she sat across from him, staring out the window, lost in thought.
