“Just during that business trip,” Kendrick said.“Which one?”Kendrick pinched her cheek. “Are you jealous?”Annabelle pursed her lips. She wasn’t jealous—but she also was.She knew Kendrick had never had anything ambiguous with another woman, but the thought that a woman had once tried to crawl into his bed still left a knot in her chest.Even if the woman had only hugged his waist, it still made Annabelle uncomfortable...The worse she felt, the more she wanted to know the details. If she didn’t, her imagination would run wild.“Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore,” Kendrick said, gently smoothing her hair. “You were standing for a while earlier. Do you feel uncomfortable?”Annabelle felt her belly. “It’s not too bad. Doesn’t hurt like it did earlier.”Kendrick pulled her into his arms with a sigh. “Tonight has been a mess.”“So, which trip was it exactly?”Kendrick chuckled helplessly, locking eyes with her. “You really want to know?”Annabelle nodded seriously. If she didn’t u

For the next two days, Kendrick stayed home with Annabelle.They cooked together—well, mostly it was Kendrick doing the cooking. Annabelle just sat nearby, observing or occasionally giving directions.Not that he needed any. Kendrick could cook, and he was way better at it than she was.On the evening of the third day, after dinner, Annabelle was in the kitchen brewing a herbal soup for her pregnancy, while Kendrick sat at the dining table, multitasking between work and keeping her company.Suddenly, the doorbell rang.It was stormy outside—wind howled, lightning flashed, thunder rumbled ominously. The rain was just about to pour. The sound of the doorbell startled Annabelle.Kendrick got up and gently ruffled her hair, “I’ll go check. Probably Jaime dropping off some documents.”He walked over to the video intercom and glanced at the screen. But instead of unlocking the door right away, he stepped outside.If it had been Jaime, Kendrick would've let him in directly.So who was it at

Lydia had heard that Colten and his wife had a major falling-out. The cold war between them had lasted many days.So when Colten came to the hospital to visit the old lady, Lydia seized the opportunity to comfort him and offered to drink with him. Colten agreed.That night, they drank on the rooftop of the hospital. After getting him drunk, Lydia staged the illusion that they had spent the night together.The next morning, Colten, thinking he had slept with her, was filled with regret. He sincerely apologized and offered her monetary compensation.But unlike some foolish women who would use such a night to force a man into marriage, Lydia acted with grace and understanding. She told him she had been drunk, yes, but was still conscious and thus willing. She said she didn't blame him and didn’t want anything from him—not even compensation.Her sudden confession and forgiving attitude caught Colten off guard and left him feeling even more conflicted.Lydia emphasized again that since she

What gave Marvin an even bigger headache was the fact that Linda was currently sharing a rental with another man. And now that she was thinking about finding a boyfriend, it would be way too easy for someone to take advantage of her vulnerability—she was bound to suffer for it.So no matter what, he had to go to her place and check that guy out.If the guy had any bad intentions, Marvin was confident he could sniff it out.With that in mind, he followed Linda into the neighborhood where she lived.The residential complex wasn’t upscale, but it wasn’t shabby either. The environment was decent—only six buildings in total, and relatively quiet.This was Marvin’s first time visiting Linda’s place. She used to live in his apartment, but before he had to sell it off, she had already bought this place and moved in.They entered the building, took the elevator, and headed up to the 19th floor.Marvin had his arm draped around her shoulder all the way to her front door.He was planning to walk

At this moment, looking at the girl in front of him, Marvin felt both heartache and admiration—for her strength, and her courage.He couldn’t help but reach out and tuck a strand of hair behind her ear, revealing most of her delicate face.Like this, she had an added softness, a gentleness that made her seem more like a tender young woman.Perhaps because his gesture was too intimate, Linda lowered her head and shifted slightly away from him, trying to pull her hand out of his grasp.From earlier until now, Marvin had been holding her hand.Only when she tried to withdraw did he realize he hadn’t let go.He released her fingers, but then took hold of her wrist and pulled her into his arms.Linda was a little uncomfortable and struggled briefly. “Second Brother, what’s wrong?”“My heart aches. I just want to hold you.”She didn’t resist again, giggled a little, and even patted his back as if to comfort him. “It’s all over now. See? I grew up on time, didn’t lose an arm or a leg, right?
