All Chapters of I wish it were you: Chapter 1471 - Chapter 1480

These words, Marvin didn’t want to say to Linda directly, but he had no such reservations with this guy.Corey leaned back in his chair and took a sip of tea. “That’s what I wanted to ask you.”Marvin gave a light laugh. “Linda and I have our relationship. I’ll stay as long as I want.”Corey smiled too. “Same goes for me.”Marvin’s fists clenched. “Don’t think I don’t know what you're scheming.”Corey gave him a look, finished his tea, rinsed the cup at the sink, and placed it on the drying rack. As he walked past the dining table, his steps paused slightly.“It doesn’t matter what I’m scheming. What matters is that your presence here is disrupting her life. If you truly care about her, then move out.”Marvin chuckled. “I’m a part of her life. You don’t get to tell me to leave.”Corey said nothing more. He looked at him deeply before returning to his room.That night, Marvin didn’t sleep well.Even though he appeared confident in front of Corey, deep down, he felt unsettled.Something

It was already close to 10 p.m., yet the tech development department at the Nichols Group was still working overtime, testing their new products.The smart home product they had been developing had reached its final testing stage and was about to be showcased at an upcoming exhibition—an absolutely critical moment. The success or failure of the product launch would determine whether the team’s year-long efforts would pay off. Everyone was laser-focused, checking and rechecking every detail.The light was still on in Julissa’s office.Since Mr. Nichols hadn’t left, she, as his assistant, naturally stayed behind to work late with him.When Anna messaged her earlier, she had been on the verge of dozing off, nearly slumped over her desk. But after chatting for a while, she felt much more awake.Stretching lazily, she stepped away from the computer and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing down at the night-lit city.Scott had arranged this office for her, right next to the ex

Looking at the solemn, focused CEO in the distance, who would imagine that this meticulous and abstinent boss was like a ravenous wolf in private…Julissa quietly let out a breath, shutting down her lovestruck mind, and followed Mr. Nichols and the others to another lab bench to test a new product.She actually really liked watching him work so intently—especially from afar, from some inconspicuous corner. It made her feel like she was looking at someone from a completely different world. He seemed so far away, like they didn't even belong to the same dimension.And yet, they were also so close. After all, just last night, they had held each other under the same blanket…But as she observed him like this, she started to notice other things that made her heart ache.Standing next to Scott, assisting with the testing, was the assistant to the technical director—Sheila.Sheila held a tablet, occasionally reporting data to him. She was quick-witted, had a clear voice, and spoke concisely.

Julissa wasn’t in the mood to eat. To be worthy of the hundred-thousand-monthly salary that Mr. Nichols had given her, she was already working herself to the bone. If he gave her a raise on top of that, wouldn’t she have to work herself to death to feel worthy of it?She stared blankly at Scott. “But… why would you give me a raise out of nowhere?”What Scott said next nearly brought her to tears.He set down his coffee cup, his face wearing the composed authority of a boss as he looked at her and said:“Because Miss Hickman has worked diligently, improved rapidly, gained the recognition of many colleagues since joining, supported me in all aspects of work, and even helped lighten my mood. So I believe giving her a raise is not excessive.”As she listened to his praise and recognition, Julissa felt that all her hard work hadn’t been in vain. All the people who doubted her suddenly felt irrelevant.She also realized that maybe she wasn’t as bad as she’d thought. Even though she wasn’t g

Julissa bit her lip. Stop it. Stop it! She had to stop these wandering thoughts.She was a patient now—she needed to keep a clear mind and rest, no more daydreaming.Just then, someone started a livestream, and Julissa focused her attention on the screen, where the tech exhibition was in full swing.At the moment, the great CEO was on stage introducing Times Group’s vision for smart homes. Most of it was the usual PR talk. She had actually written the first draft of the speech, though Scott had heavily revised it afterward with numerous edits.But watching Scott on stage—so confident and radiant—it didn’t really matter what he said. The more she looked at him, the more pleasing he became to her eyes. She just wanted to keep following this man, striving together, living life together…As Julissa sat there feeling sentimental, Scott wrapped up his speech to enthusiastic applause.Then, a female audience member—or rather, a fangirl—stepped up to the stage.She called out loudly, “Mr. Nic
