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 137 Honey, do you need help?

    There were over a dozen versions of speculations about Annabelle's identity.One good thing was that after the helicopter incident, no one dared to bully her.However, those are all other people's opinions. Annabelle doesn't care either way and goes to school every day just as she always has.That day, Kendrick dropped her off at school. She was about to get off the car, but Kendrick held her back."Do I need to help you control those public opinions?"Kendrick didn't want to interfere with her school matters, but he couldn't help but feel sorry for her and wanted to lend her a hand.Annabelle was taken aback after hearing this. She realized that Kendrick knew about her affairs at school."Thank you, I don't need it.""Are you sure?"Annabelle said lightly, "With a mouth as eloquent as yours, how can you possibly silence it?"Rumors end with the wise, and she who is pure clears herself, without needing to argue with those petty people.Not everyone was criticizing her, and there were

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 138 So Handsome

    This boy was a second-generation rich, named Gerald Byrd. He used to enjoy playing pranks on others and relied on his family's influence. Sometimes, he even dared to make jokes about the teachers. Annabelle had long disliked him.Just now, he played a prank on the chubby girl and immediately took out his phone to record it. Without a doubt, he was planning to upload that video online."Woman, I advise you to mind your own business," Gerald said with a wicked smile, sitting back in his chair with his legs crossed. The chair's two legs were off the ground, swaying back and forth, displaying an air of arrogance."I said it again, delete the video."The boy chuckled lightly and said, "I won't delete it. What can you do to me?"As soon as he finished speaking, Annabelle had already taken two steps towards him. She forcefully pulled the back of his chair, causing the boy to instantly lose his balance and fall backwards onto the ground, letting out a painful cry.Everyone held their breath,

    After class, Annabelle packed up her things and prepared to go home.The fat girl stopped her in the corridor."Clothes, I will go back and wash them clean for you."Annabelle glanced at the jacket still tied around the girl's waist and said, "Hmm, no rush.""Thank you just now."Annabelle shook her head, indicating not to worry.Annabelle was introverted and not used to talking to unfamiliar people, so after exchanging a few pleasantries with the chubby girl, she wanted to leave.The girl suddenly asked, "Do you pity me?"Annabelle frowned, "I just feel that if I let him bully you, I might become his target in the future."The girl's eyes turned red, and her face was filled with sadness and anger."It's because someone was protecting you that you were fearless and able to say such things."Annabelle smiled helplessly. The girl said someone was protecting her, probably because she thought Annabelle knew someone like Marvin, a young master.But she dared to knock over the chair of the

    Kamila's summary of the three people instantly amused Annabelle.If Kendrick knew that others called him "Audi long legs," I wonder how dark his face would become?"Don't laugh, answer me quickly, I won't tell anyone."Annabelle thought for a moment and said, "None of them.""Have you not decided who to choose yet?"Annabelle smiled and asked, "Do you want to give me some advice?"Kamila pondered for a moment and said, "The helicopter is too flashy, and I feel like you wouldn't like it. Fabian is on a whole different level, and it's difficult for us to handle. I think this tall guy is better, even though he only drives an A6 and is definitely not as wealthy as Fabian with his helicopter. But he has good looks and a great physique."Annabelle listened to Kamila's words and glanced at Kendrick in the distance, feeling a strong urge to laugh.This Elfhedge, the most precious Mr. Gregory, in the mouth of the unsuspecting Kamila, unexpectedly turned into an economical man, only relying on

    Annabelle's body was pressed tightly against the back of the chair, biting her lip.Regret.What were you blabbering about just now, talking about brothers and sisters!How can I say such cheesy things out loud?However, Kendrick approached a little closer, which scared Annabelle so much that she had to grit her teeth and admit defeat."Good brother... Good brother! Are you done?"At this moment, she felt both embarrassed and annoyed. Her small face, the size of a palm, turned pink, and her eyes shimmered with watery light, making her look even more pitiful.Kendrick's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but kiss her lips.Annabelle quickly reacted as soon as she realized his motive, she turned her head and, in the end, Kendrick's kiss landed on her cheek.Kendrick chuckled and whispered in her ear ambiguously, "Good girl."Annabelle blushed and avoided looking at him, wishing she could become invisible."B

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 142 The little woman was quite irritable

    After Annabelle finished giving her statement, she was taken to a temporary holding room.She opened her big eyes and quietly looked at the silent surroundings, fear gradually spreading from the bottom of her heart...The small window and bare walls made Annabelle feel increasingly oppressed in the past. Time seemed to stretch infinitely, and many painful memories resurfaced.She seemed to be back to when she was eight years old, back when she was still at the Sanchez's place. It was because she had broken her mother's beloved plate, and her mother locked her in a small dark room for a full two days and nights, until her younger brother Raphael quietly let her out.She also remembered the cold winter when she first arrived at Springvale Temple, with the mountains covered in heavy snow. Her face was wrapped in bandages as she lay on a stiff wooden bed, forgotten by everyone, until the young master appeared.Those past moments came back to Annabelle'

    The police politely escorted Kendrick and Annabelle to the gate, and Annabelle's face had turned red all the way to her neck."Put me down quickly, my leg isn't injured..." she grumbled as she slapped Kendrick's chest.Kendrick then put her down, thinking to himself, "What a little white-eyed wolf you are. Just a moment ago, you were so scared that your face turned pale. I thought you couldn't walk because your legs were weak, so I held you. And you still hit me."Annabelle remembered what had happened at the police station and asked, "By the way, was it you who asked the police to be a little nicer to me?"Although she was scared just now, she also knew that it was her own psychological factor. Because in the previous two hours, no one had troubled her, and that so-called detention room seemed to be just a duty room."No." Kendrick's face looked a bit unpleasant. "It was a classmate of yours who asked someone to take care of you. And he is a Murph

    Seraphina understood exactly what Dereon meant—he was suggesting she sleep with the Young Master.But would sleeping with him really make him love her more?Seraphina knew very well: the reason the Young Master still had some affection for her was precisely because she knew her place and respected boundaries.She didn’t want to do anything that might make him hate her.Looking out the cabin window, Seraphina said calmly, “If the Young Master wanted me, of course I’d be willing… but I’m not going to take the initiative to do something so unnecessary.”“How is it unnecessary?!”Dereon slapped his thigh in frustration. Blood was still trickling down his forehead, running past his brow and onto his nose, making him look a little frightening. But his expression was that of a sleazy pimp, and Seraphina found it laughable.“You don’t have to convince me,” she said. “I have my own thoughts on this.”“Seraphina, you don’t understand men,” Dereon lowered his voice. “If you can hold on to the Yo

    Ryan said, “That wasn’t the best opportunity just now.”“Why not?”Ryan rubbed his temples in exhaustion. “Can you use your brain before asking questions?”Seraphina quickly jumped in, “Dereon, didn’t you see that Gauge was also there?”“So what if Gauge was there?” Dereon retorted. “That kid clearly can’t fight.”Seraphina patiently explained.First, the Young Master didn’t hide his movements on this trip to South City. Running into Kendrick here was purely by chance.They weren’t prepared. Acting rashly could have led to failure.Even if they succeeded, since their movements weren’t concealed, it would be easy for the Gregory family to trace the incident back to them. And that old man from the Gregory family is no pushover.Second, Gauge was present. He’s friends with both Kendrick and Annabelle. There’s no way he’d stand by and do nothing.If Gauge got dragged into the mess, the Young Master would be making an enemy out of the Murphy family for no reason.The the Whitney Group is j

    A private jet bound for Elfhedge took off smoothly from the South City airport.Inside the cabin, Annabelle was lying in a luxurious bedroom.Ryan stepped out of the room and said to Seraphina, who was standing outside the door, “She was poisoned by a type of floral toxin. It causes hallucinations and unconsciousness. She's fine now. Go get a clean set of clothes for her. I’ll help her change.”“It’s already prepared,” Seraphina’s gaze flickered slightly. She tightened her grip on the clothes in her hand and lowered her head. “Young Master, let me do it. This dress is a bit tricky to put on…”Ryan glanced at the dress in her hands, then looked deeply into her eyes. After a moment, he let out a bitter laugh. “Alright… if Anna knew I changed her clothes, she’d probably hate me even more.”Seraphina said nothing. Once Ryan stepped aside, she walked in with her head lowered.She carefully helped Annabelle out of her soiled clothes and put on the dress she had brought with her for the trip

    Anna shook her head and smiled. “Nothing really. Let me do the cleaning—you’re definitely not as meticulous as I am. You go wait outside.”“No need…”“Go on, I’ll take care of it.”Annabelle was firm and took the duster from Gauge’s hand.But Gauge didn’t leave. How could he let a girl do the work while he waited outside enjoying the breeze?So the two of them cleaned together.While cleaning the room, Annabelle felt oddly emotional. Her mind was flooded with thoughts.Who was the woman who had once lived here? What kind of story did she have? What kind of mood had she been in when she left the village to live in solitude by the sea?As she wiped the mirror on the vanity, she could almost picture a woman sitting there, grooming herself in days long past.She must have been someone melancholic, yet strong-willed.A sudden wave of sadness welled up from deep within Annabelle’s heart.She couldn’t help but laugh at herself. Am I too empathetic? Why else would she feel so much for a compl

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 936 Who Is She?

    “Let’s go,” Gauge called out to her.Annabelle snapped out of her thoughts and walked toward the small wooden cabin.Gauge pointed to a patch of land behind the cabin and said that it used to be a small garden. There had once been a large tree with a wide canopy, and his father had installed a swing on one of its sturdy horizontal branches.Back then, his father often sat alone inside the cabin, sipping a couple of drinks.Meanwhile, Gauge would sit outside on the swing, watching the sea and listening to music.Looking at the now overgrown garden, Gauge showed a hint of melancholy.“Unfortunately, the big tree was cut down later, and since no one took care of the garden, it fell into disrepair. When my dad came here last year, he said he regretted not being able to maintain it.”Annabelle listened quietly. It seemed Murphy's father had deeply cared about whoever used to live here.Gauge had said before that he wasn’t sure if the person was a man or a woman—he just guessed it was a wom

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 935 The Big Boss Is Sick

    Annabelle transformed visibly from a sweet little bunny into a puffed-up pufferfish, cheeks bulging with frustration.She got up to leave, but Kendrick pulled her back into his arms. He poked her puffed cheeks and chuckled,"You're really that scared someone’s going to steal me away?""If you could be stolen that easily, then you’re not worth liking."Annabelle wasn’t insecure to the point where a single text message from Kendrick would make her suspicious.But it was late, and the sudden calls and texts clearly meant something was going on.Still… she had to admit, she was just a tiny bit jealous."You jealous of Jaime too? I was on the phone with him," Kendrick laughed as he handed over his phone so she could see the call log.Annabelle glanced at it—sure enough, the call happened while she was playing the guitar. The corners of her lips twitched upward, but she still insisted stubbornly,"I said I was just casually asking."Kendrick then pulled up their group chat—the one with Jaim

  • I wish it were you   Chapter 934 Hopelessly in Love

    Kendrick’s kiss was too passionate—so passionate it was suffocating, instantly awakening every cell in Annabelle’s body.His kiss was also too forceful—so forceful that Annabelle forgot to resist, and didn't want to resist.Because when Kendrick desired her so intensely, she too was equally, fiercely craving him.It suddenly dawned on her—she truly, deeply liked this man above her. She liked his scent, liked his voice, even liked the beads of sweat trickling down his spine.When did she fall this hard?Maybe it started back when they were ambushed and narrowly escaped death… when they lived in the hospital together… when she risked falling just to climb over the balcony and see him.When she brought herself to his bed, faced her feelings for the first time, and accepted him both emotionally and physically—she had already fallen.As for her heart… it had been open to him long before that.Maybe it started with his first kiss. From that moment, her heart had already begun to waver—she j

    After his cold shower, Kendrick returned to the room and climbed into bed, but he still felt a bit restless.He gazed at the little woman for a while. She looked exhausted.Not wanting to wake her, he gently pulled her nightdress down and tucked the blanket securely around her.Then he turned around, facing away from her, closed his eyes, and tried to sleep.But in the twenty-something-degree room, Annabelle, now wrapped like a little cocoon, soon got uncomfortable and kicked the blanket off again.Not only that—she rolled over and draped her arm around Kendrick’s waist, hugging him from behind.Maybe because Kendrick’s body was still slightly cool from the cold shower, Annabelle loved the chilly "big body pillow" and even pressed her warm little face against his back.While tightly hugging her “old fox,” she continued her dream, still playing chess with the god of dreams.Kendrick let out a long sigh and gently held the hand around his waist, playfully tickling her palm.She didn’t w

    Kendrick chuckled helplessly. “She really doesn’t use her phone much, so there’s no need to worry about her finding out on her own.”He’d seen Anna’s phone interface before—it was mostly filled with practical apps like dictionaries and period trackers. The usual social media apps? She had tucked them all away in a folder labeled "Rarely Used."Thinking of his quirky little wife, Kendrick’s mood lightened significantly.Of course, he knew that in this internet era, Anna might eventually come across the gossip herself. That’s why he hoped, by the time she did, he would have already taken care of everything.Then, when she found out, she’d know exactly where the "arrow" came from—and see clearly what became of the person who fired it.That way, she wouldn’t feel too anxious or wronged. At most, she’d just complain about how shameless the rumor-spreader was.It was the best way Kendrick could think of to minimize the harm.“Alright. I promise,” Gauge said solemnly.“Then that’s all,” Kend
