All Chapters of I wish it were you: Chapter 1481 - Chapter 1490

Julissa figured that the marketing team had probably already gone through several rounds of negotiation, and today just happened to be when Scott was present—so they wanted him to make the final decision.Mr. Nichols glanced at her and handed her the contract. “Miss Hickman, take a look too. See if there’s anything that needs to be added.”Julissa flipped through the contract. The terms were clearly written, with detailed clauses outlining potential risks and how responsibilities would be divided.But she knew all too well: if this Lilian White really caused trouble, the rights protected by this piece of paper would only cover the bare minimum. The real damage would be irreversible.Take a previous case, for example—a similar influencer jokingly crossed the line during a product pitch and made an inappropriate comment insulting female consumers. That influencer’s career went up in smoke, and the supplier got dragged down with her. They had to pull that entire product line, and even th

He was deliberately keeping her in suspense, so Julissa simply didn’t ask further.Once again, she marveled at how brilliant this black technology was.It used holographic imaging, surround sound, and other techniques—much like a 4D cinema. Though not exactly new tech, the system Mr. Nichols had created was incredibly realistic and immersive. Julissa loved it to bits.“Mr. Nichols, let’s switch to another scene!”Scott looked at her, leaned in close, and whispered, “No.”“Why not?”“I’m too tired today. Another round will affect performance.”Julissa: “...I just wanted to see some more scenery.”“Nope. If you want to experience it, hurry up and marry me. I’ll take you somewhere new every night.”Hearing that, Julissa couldn’t help but lean on his shoulder and murmur, “I want to marry you right now.”Mr. Nichols rasped with a hoarse voice, clearly torn, “The civil affairs office is closed. Tomorrow, maybe.”Julissa chuckled against his shoulder. She was only half-serious anyway.She kn

Later, the two started talking about Julissa and Scott's official announcement of their relationship, and how Kendrick kept pestering them for wedding sweets.Julissa then said, “Back when you two got married, you didn’t have a ceremony. If you’re going to make up for it, why not do a joint wedding with us?”She blurted it out without thinking, but Anna fell into a moment of silence, seemingly troubled.Julissa asked, “What’s wrong, Anna? You two hit a snag?”Anna said that Kendrick had also mentioned making up for the wedding they didn’t have, but she wasn’t really into the idea. Even if they did hold one, it wouldn’t be a grand event—just a small dinner with close friends at most.Julissa thought for a moment, then cautiously asked, “You don’t want to run into your family, is that it?”Anna gave a helpless expression and nodded, finally voicing her concerns.If they held a traditional wedding, they’d have to invite both sides of the family. But after everything her parents and older

The bartender spoke gently. “I swapped the gin for purified water when mixing the drink—so it’s non-alcoholic.”“Why did you swap it?”“A slight buzz is the sweet spot. But for a girl drinking out alone, safety comes first.”Julissa couldn’t help but smile. If the bartender from her last outing had been this thoughtful, she wouldn’t have gotten drunk and lost her virginity—even if it had been to Scott…Later, she asked the bartender to help her pack a bottle of orange liqueur and a bottle of white vermouth. He set the bags on the bar and went back to serving other customers. Once he was gone, she ordered a beer from the waiter.She felt confident letting loose—after all, Anna and Kendrick were there. Even if she got drunk, they’d make sure she got home safe.And eventually, she did get drunk.The world was spinning, her mind foggy, head pounding. She vaguely remembered draping one arm around Anna’s shoulders, clutching the paper bag with the two bottles of alcohol in the other, stagge

This wasn’t the first time Mr. Nichols had protected her joy.She had shared many things with him—things he’d already seen, tasted, or experienced. But Scott never dismissed her enthusiasm, never interrupted her with a casual “I’ve done that already.”As she thought about this, Scott glanced up at her. “Why are you staring at me like that?”Propping her chin in her hand, Julissa gazed at him like a fangirl. “Just thinking... Mr. Nichols has such refined character.”To protect someone else’s happiness—that is a kind of refinement, isn’t it?He chuckled and flicked her forehead. “Suddenly putting me on a pedestal—what do you want now?”“Can’t I just genuinely admire you from the heart?”He gave a dry laugh. “You always butter me up when you need something. Or when you’ve messed up.”“That’s a serious misjudgment!”Scott still didn’t look convinced and shook his head with a grin.As they chatted, he finished mixing a white Negroni and slid it in front of her. “Try it. See if it tastes li
