Chapter 128 No Rush

2025-01-01 18:02:38Annabelle blinked her eyes, how could she know his thoughts!
However, Kendrick looked at her expression and wondered why it was so strange, as if she had some kind of treasure on her.
Annabelle's brain raced as she wondered what exactly she had on her that Kendrick found worth pondering.
It was impossible for him to pursue her wealth, nor was it about lust. After all, he was so wealthy and surrounded by beautiful women.
What about her medical skills? It seems unlikely, as Kendrick's illness has already been cured and her usefulness has diminished. Moreover, the private doctor by his side is also highly skilled.
After thinking for a while, I remembered what he said to the reporter today, saying that they were almost having a child.
Did Kendrick want to...
Annabelle looked at Kendrick with a vigilant expression, as if she was staring at a human trafficker who was about to take her organs at any moment.
Kendrick was also wondering

Annabelle was going crazy, how could there be such a shameless person!Unfortunately, she was still unable to do it.After all, since the Sanchez Group was not going to buy the Gregory family, she had to withdraw her divorce request and continue living under the same roof with this old fox."Then I will make it clear to you, I don't love you now, and I won't fall in love with you in the future. If you like to give without expecting anything in return, I won't stop you, but one day I will leave you."After saying that, Annabelle pushed him away and angrily went upstairs.Looking at that stubborn figure, Kendrick, who had always been dominant in the business world, suddenly felt confused and unusually lost in his heart.She seemed to really not like him at all, as if she couldn't wait to leave his side at any moment.In the past, he had always had a natural attitude towards Annabelle. He tried his best to fulfill her desires and never f

Annabelle blushed belatedly and angrily scolded, "Why weren't you dressed properly!""After taking a shower, it's time to sleep. Why bother putting on clothes?""Don't you wear clothes when you sleep?""Why do we have to wear clothes when we sleep?" Kendrick smirked ambiguously."..."Annabelle rubbed her forehead.What on earth was she doing? Why was she discussing with this person about whether to wear clothes while sleeping or not...She bent down to pick up the towel and turned her face away, handing it to Kendrick, saying, "Wrap yourself up!"After saying that, she ran back to her room as if escaping, quickly locked the door, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.Annabelle silently reminded herself to be careful in the future. Kendrick was an adult man, and from her observations, he didn't usually stay out overnight and probably didn't have a sexual life. However, his quick awakening just now hinted to Annabelle th

Afterwards, Kendrick drove the car out of the garage, and Annabelle opened the car door and sat in the back seat, acting as if she were the leader and he was the chauffeur. After the car entered the city road, Annabelle started misbehaving. She cleared her throat, rolled her eyes, and said, "Kendrick, why are you driving so slowly? I'm going to be late." Kendrick glanced at her through the rearview mirror and ignored her, driving the way he wanted to. Annabelle saw that it was useless and started talking about the air conditioner again, saying it was too hot. Kendrick then lowered it. Then she said it was too cold, so Kendrick raised the air conditioner again. Until Annabelle bravely said, "Can you drive any slower?" Kendrick clicked his tongue, parked the car on the roadside parking strip, and turned on the hazard lights. "Why did you stop the car?" Annabelle wondered, did it work? Finally, had it pushed him to the breaking point, making him want to abandon her halfway? Very

At this time, Annabelle was completely unaware that she was heading towards her own demise, and she was already straying further and further away."Anna, I advise you not to challenge my patience."Annabelle blinked her eyes. He looked really scary, as if he was truly angry.Well, in that case, she insisted on continuing to challenge him. If he could just take her to the City Hall in a fit of anger and go through the divorce procedure, it couldn't get any better."Kendrick, you were despicable and shameless, taking advantage of others' misfortune, with no shame!"Kendrick smiled and said, "Since that's the case, if I don't do something, wouldn't it be unfair to your two comments?"As soon as the words fell, Kendrick once again held Annabelle in his arms and kissed her.Although the action was gentle, Annabelle wanted to break free, but it was still impossible.She could only reluctantly comply with him. Eventually, she felt dizzy and her breath was filled with Kendrick's scent - a fai

Kendrick was almost pulled back into her arms by her little hands' "caress", but he glanced at the time and realized that if they continued to play around like this, it would definitely make his wife late for class and she would surely get angry with him again in the future.So he reached out and rubbed Annabelle's neck, "Even if you want it, I can't give it to you anymore. If we don't leave now, you'll really be late."Annabelle said, "Mr. Gregory, do you remember today's task?"The key is, even though he stole the fragrance, it was said that she wanted it instead...The car started again, and Annabelle dared not misbehave anymore.Quietly peering from the back seat, she took a careful look at Kendrick, who was driving, for the first time.After all the fuss just now, her heart was pounding so hard that she felt like it was about to jump out. This guy, on the other hand, could still drive calmly. Tsk tsk, Annabelle increasingly felt that this person had a very deep mind, and she was

Annabelle not only had to tiptoe, but also had to hook her hand around his shoulder in order to kiss him.However, this dragonfly-like kiss was quite perfunctory, which left Kendrick very dissatisfied. He really wanted to prolong this kiss.But looking at the swollen lips that had been kissed by him, Mr. Gregory temporarily showed mercy and spared the little rabbit.For the next three days, Annabelle did not dare to provoke Kendrick easily.Fortunately, Kendrick was always busy with company matters, leaving early and returning late, and he didn't have time to flirt with her.That day, Annabelle was attending classes at school as usual.During the break, a chubby girl patted her shoulder and said, "Classmate, someone is looking for you."The girl pointed to the door, with a face full of infatuation.Annabelle looked in the direction her finger pointed and couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.The person who came turned out to be Marvin.It has been over a month since Annabelle last v

Annabelle paused for a moment, realizing that Marvin had come to share this good news with her.Although she felt that it had nothing to do with her, she also didn't like to casually ruin other people's joy, so she smiled and said, "That's great, congratulations to you.""Anna, I remember everything you said. Meeting you, I was really lucky."Annabelle smiled and didn't know what to say. She felt that the man in front of her, when he spoke, was just like a twelve-year-old boy."In conclusion, I would continue to strive.""Okay, then you go for it," Annabelle smiled at him again, feeling like she was encouraging a younger student.Who would have thought that Marvin is six years older than her...Marvin opened his mouth, the words he wanted to say were on the tip of his tongue, but in the end, he swallowed them: "Anna, you go to class, I happen to have some free time today, so I came to see you. Everything is fine.""Okay, then I went back first."Annabelle entered the teaching building

Marvin's face looked very unpleasant at this moment, and of course, he didn't want to go overseas to become an executive vice president.But now, does he still have room to refuse?This was Kendrick deliberately playing a trick on him, but he was not strong enough to do anything except silently swallow his anger."I had no objection.""Alright, from now on, you two brothers should think in the same direction and work together to strengthen our company, the Gregory Group..."After the father finished speaking, the two brothers walked out of the study.As soon as Marvin arrived in the corridor, he said to Kendrick, "Don't think that by sending me to the border, you will get Anna."Kendrick chuckled and said, "Firstly, even my father said it, this is a great opportunity, not some banishment to the border. Secondly, Annabelle and I are already married, you were already out of the game long ago."Marvin clenched his fist in anger, and his jaw muscles stood out prominently due to his fury.

I wish it were you Chapter 930 Youthful Ambition
What Gauge wanted to discuss with Kendrick was a strategic collaboration between their two companies.Since stepping into the family business, Gauge had discovered a series of issues.Although Lin Jewelry appeared to be thriving, its narrow focus on a single line of business had left it vulnerable to serious challenges.Therefore, Gauge was planning to expand the jewelry and watch business within the next five years into leather goods, fashion products, and the perfume industry.He also proposed merging the group's original real estate construction division with a subsidiary of Gregory's Group. Murphy's Group would retain only a small share—essentially, a disguised sale to Gregory's.But the reason they couldn’t call it a sale outright was because Murphy's Group had started out in the construction industry. Gauge’s father, Simon, still held an emotional attachment to that legacy and couldn’t let go entirely.After the merger of the construction branches, Gauge hoped to acquire Gregory

At first, Annabelle didn’t understand what he was up to. It wasn’t until they were back inside the house that she realized—Kendrick thought she looked a little too sexy wearing his oversized T-shirt, especially since it made it seem like she wasn’t wearing anything on the bottom. It sparked a lot of imaginative thoughts.Annabelle was both amused and exasperated. She lifted the hem of the T-shirt to show him: “I am wearing shorts! They’re just... a little short. But still totally decent!”But Mr. Gregory was persistent. In the end, Annabelle gave in and changed into her own clothes.Once they were both dressed, they returned to the courtyard.Annabelle noticed Gauge hadn’t touched the watermelon and asked why—after all, it was set aside just for him.Gauge pulled a ten-hole blues harmonica from his pocket and said, “If I eat now, I won’t be able to play.”She knew harmonica players had to keep their mouth clean before playing.Then, Gauge handed her his guitar. “Since we’re just hang
I wish it were you Chapter 928 The Sweetest Part Is in the Middle
While Kendrick was cutting the watermelon, Annabelle couldn’t take her eyes off him.How strange—why did everything this man did seem so charming to her? Even slicing a watermelon looked handsome.It was as if her brain had automatically applied a beauty filter to him.Annabelle placed a hand over her chest, trying to calm her racing heart. But the more she tried, the faster it beat. The sweet words he had just whispered, every little expression and gesture of his, were now playing back in her mind like a movie…Kendrick held out the watermelon to her with a grin. “Little fangirl, stop staring. This handsome guy is your husband—100% confirmed.”Annabelle glared at him with a flushed face. “Narcissist!”Then she lowered her head, scooping out a bite of watermelon, determined to focus on eating.Just as she was about to take a bite, she noticed Kendrick had sat down.The other half of the watermelon was still sitting on the small stone platform by the well.“Aren’t you going to eat?”“Y

Annabelle smiled softly, her eyes twinkling with a mix of amusement and affection. "Why do you always have to compare everything?" she asked, her voice gentle and teasing."I just want to know," he replied, his voice low and earnest. He reached out and tucked a strand of Anna's hair behind her ear, his touch light but intimate. "What it feels like for you to be with me."Annabelle fell into deep thought, her gaze drifting away as she considered his question. The room was quiet, filled only with the soft sounds of their breathing and the occasional rustle of the sheets beneath them. After a while, she still hadn't answered. Kendrick sighed, a hint of frustration in his voice. "Is it really that hard to answer?""Hmm... it’s hard to describe," Annabelle murmured thoughtfully, her fingers playing with the edge of the blanket. "Before, when I was with you, just seeing you would throw my heart into chaos. My pulse would race, and I could hardly catch my breath. But now…” She trailed off, h
I wish it were you Chapter 926 Soft Soft
Annabelle hadn’t slept so soundly in a long time.When she lazily opened her eyes and looked out the window, she realized it was already dark.Ever since arriving at her grandma’s house and staying in this quiet little fishing village—far away from her usual life—it felt like she had escaped to another world. Her entire being relaxed, with nothing left to worry about.Kendrick didn’t have to stress over the corporation anymore either.Their biggest daily dilemma had become: what should we eat for the next meal?If only life could always be this carefree...Annabelle slowly sat up. After sleeping for so long, her whole body felt soft and mushy. She got out of bed and wandered into the courtyard, where she saw Kendrick sitting at the small table, smoking.When he heard her, he turned around.“Awake?”Kendrick stubbed out his cigarette and patted his thigh.Annabelle walked over without hesitation or shyness and naturally sat on his lap, arms around his neck, resting softly against his s
I wish it were you Chapter 925 Uncle
Kendrick’s face darkened. “It’s better to date someone older. Look at Mr. Murphy—he’s too young, can’t even cook. How’s he supposed to take care of a girlfriend?”Annabelle raised her eyebrows and gave the sly old fox a glance. Flicking the water off her hands, she smiled and said, “But younger guys are energetic—and no generation gap!”Kendrick let out a sharp “hmph.” “You think there’s a generation gap between us?”“I didn’t say us,” Annabelle teased, eyes twinkling. “Why are you jumping to conclusions? Having a midlife crisis already, Uncle?”The little bunny was obviously up to no good with that mischievous grin.Kendrick glanced at the loquat tree in the courtyard, then squinted at the sunlight filtering through its leaves, trying hard to stay calm.After all, he was turning 31 after the New Year. Couldn’t let a little girl get under his skin, right?But midlife crisis? Really?He was in his prime. A young man!So this young Mr. Gregory looked into the reflection on the glass. He
I wish it were you Chapter 924 I’m Your Future Wife
So Annabelle thought to herself—was Mr. Gregory being a little too proactive?Kendrick asked lightly, “So, do you want to go swimming with him alone?”He deliberately emphasized the word “alone,” as if suggesting she had ulterior motives. Annabelle could only respond, “...I never said that!”“Then that’s that,” Kendrick said calmly, taking her hand and leading her into the house.After a short rest, the three of them began preparing lunch.Gauge was every bit the privileged young master—clearly someone who’d never cooked at home before. He practically didn’t know how to do anything.He was too rough when washing vegetables, to the point of mangling the leaves.Then they had him try chopping vegetables—but the young master, with his obsessive need for precision, insisted on cutting everything perfectly uniform, each slice as neat as the next. At the rate he was going, they’d probably be eating tomorrow’s lunch.Kendrick and Annabelle didn’t even bother expecting him to cook anything. T
I wish it were you Chapter 923 Even the Young Master Needs to Make His Presence Known
Afterward, the three of them returned to Grandma’s house first.Gauge waited in the courtyard while Annabelle and Kendrick brought the things they bought at the market into the house. After grabbing the ingredients they needed for lunch, the three of them headed to Gauge’s place together.When they arrived in front of the white guesthouse, Kendrick couldn’t help but chuckle.That morning, he and Anna had passed by this very spot. He had been wondering at the time—the place had a fresh, elegant architectural style. But there was no signboard, so maybe it wasn’t a guesthouse after all. If it was just a private residence, then it probably belonged to someone with means.Sure enough, his guess wasn’t far off. What he didn’t expect was that this would turn out to be Gauge’s home.After stepping through the front gate, Annabelle couldn’t help but marvel.To build such a charming little courtyard on this sloped hill must’ve taken a lot of thought and care.“Come in, rest a bit. Have some wat
I wish it were you Chapter 922 Just Like Last Night
As Kendrick was lost in thought, Annabelle called out to him, “Let me help you carry a couple of those.”Just moments ago, Kendrick had taken all the shopping bags from her hands—he was carrying everything by himself now.Seeing his forehead glistening with sweat, Annabelle, who now had empty hands, felt both guilty and worried.Kendrick looked back at her, smiled, and said, “I could carry you on my back too, no problem.”“Stop messing around, give me two bags.”Seeing how serious she looked, eyebrows furrowed and all, he finally gave in and handed her two of the lightest ones.But as soon as she took them, Gauge casually took them from her without saying a word.Annabelle: “…”She felt like she’d just become the middleman in a hand-off.Kendrick glanced at Gauge. “Thanks, Mr. Murphy.”His tone and look were both laced with provocation.Even Annabelle thought he was kinda asking for a punch right then.Gauge snorted coldly, “Don’t thank me. It’s not like I’m helping you.”“Tsk, brat…”
