All Chapters of I wish it were you: Chapter 871 - Chapter 880

However, Scott didn’t continue teasing her.That night, after finishing the movie, the two of them stayed in the apartment—but in separate rooms. Nothing happened.The next morning, Julissa and Mr. Nichols went to work together. She had slept well the previous night and was feeling fully refreshed.After parking the car in the underground garage, she cheerfully followed behind Scott to the elevator area.Standing by the employee elevator, Julissa was a bit puzzled.The adjacent elevator was a private one that led directly to the CEO’s office. Normally, only the CEO, vice presidents, and executive assistants used it.It was peak office hours, and the employee elevators were in heavy use. She couldn’t understand why Scott was choosing to take this one.The elevator soon arrived. Without questioning further, Julissa followed him inside.Rushing in after them were three other employees—two women and one man, all from the Nichols Group. The two women were from the marketing department, whi

After Scott hung up the phone, Julissa asked, “Did something happen?”She had heard him mention a hospital room number and noticed his grim expression. Her first thought was that a friend or family member had been hospitalized.“Yvette suddenly collapsed and is in the hospital. I’m going to check on her,” Scott said while putting on his suit jacket.Julissa quickly asked, “How is she now?”“They’ve already stabilized her. It shouldn’t be too serious.” He glanced at the time. “There’s still an hour left before you’re off work. Keep working for now. After you finish, head home first. I’ll go to the hospital, and if everything is fine, I’ll come to the apartment to see you.”Julissa initially wanted to ask if she should go with him, but hearing how he put it, she swallowed her words.After all, she wasn’t close to Yvette—they had only met a day ago.But Scott and Yvette were longtime friends. In this dynamic, Julissa was the outsider. If Mr. Nichols didn’t want her to be too involved, th

Rewind to three hours earlier.It was 9 PM.After finishing her training, Anna left the dance studio and headed to the parking lot. Just as she was about to get into her car, a sudden cramp seized her calf muscles.She leaned against the car door, sucking in a sharp breath from the pain.A tall figure appeared in front of her.Anna looked up and was surprised to see him.“Young Master… why are you… here?”Because of the pain, Annabelle’s words came out in fragments.He didn’t answer her.Instead, he walked up to her, crouched down, and gently placed his hand on her left knee.“This leg?”Annabelle gritted her teeth and nodded. “Muscle… cramp… It’ll be fine… in a moment.”“Hold onto my shoulder and stand properly.”She hesitated, then placed her hand on the car door instead of his shoulder.He didn’t say anything about it. He simply held her ankle with one hand and pressed against her knee with the other, adjusting her leg the same way Kendrick had done before.Soon, the pain faded awa

Kendrick stood in front of her car, his own vehicle parked not far ahead.From the coldness in his gaze, Annabelle knew—he had seen everything.Including the Young Master kissing her.Her mind buzzed. Instinctively, she wanted to lower her head, pretend she wasn’t there.But Kendrick had already seen her.And her car.There was nowhere to hide.The two men were still locked in a silent standoff.She didn’t know if they would start fighting.But she thought it was a real possibility.Taking a deep breath, she opened the car door and got out.No matter what, she couldn’t let the two of them come to blows.But what she feared didn’t happen.Just as she stepped out, a black Bentley pulled up beside the Young Master.Clearly, it had come to pick him up.The Young Master turned to look at her.His gaze lingered briefly on her lips before he curved them into a slight smirk.Then, he got into the car.Now, only she and Kendrick remained.Under the streetlamp, they stared at each other.His ex

Annabelle blinked.Even on the first day they met, Kendrick had never been this restrained or polite.This rare display of self-control left her momentarily at a loss for how to respond.She hesitated for a second before murmuring, “No…”Kendrick lowered his head again.Annabelle felt completely shut out.Clearly, he had no intention of talking.Or perhaps—he didn’t even want to acknowledge her presence.Maybe after seeing another man kiss her, he now found her repulsive?Maybe he didn’t even want to waste another word on her?She could understand.If she saw Kendrick being kissed by another woman, she would be just as upset.She wouldn’t want to talk to him either.She might not even want him to touch her again.Annabelle pressed her lips together, turned silently, and walked toward the door.It seemed like the only option was to let him cool off on his own.She would explain when he was ready to listen.But just as she reached the doorway, a cold voice rang out behind her—“Stop.”H
