That day, Kendrick came home and happened to overhear Annabelle making a phone call.
She told Marvin not to send flowers anymore recently, as there were too many for her to trim.
Kendrick immediately caught the crucial keyword, which Annabelle used as "not recently."
In other words, after these flowers are used up, can Marvin continue to send them?
Does accepting Marvin's gift also mean that her heart is gradually being opened by Marvin?
Kendrick reflected on his performance during this period and silently compared himself to that kid Marvin in his mind.
It seems like he has been too busy with the affairs of the company recently and neglected his own rabbit...
It was Saturday when Annabelle received the vinyl record Marvin had sent her early in the morning. She sighed helplessly.
Marvin's enthusiasm lasted longer than she had imagined.
Recently, Annabelle has also been refusing his gifts, but Marvin said that he only see
Kendrick knew that beneath this thin layer of silk was Annabelle's soft and graceful body.He was a man, not a saint, and he would also have impure thoughts, especially when she lay there defenselessly in front of him, sound asleep.But usually she was as cautious around him as she would be around a thief, yet now he was suddenly sitting by the bed and she could still fall asleep.Did she trust him too much?Or perhaps, in Annabelle's heart, she had already accepted him long ago?Kendrick slightly bent down, his palm caressing her cheek, and whispered, "Anna, if you don't get up soon, I'll wake you up in a different way. Want to give it a try?"The little woman sniffed and turned her back.Kendrick lowered his head and kissed her on the back of her neck.Annabelle suddenly opened her eyes, wrapped in a blanket and sat up, belatedly exclaiming, "Kendrick, how did you get in!""...This is my house, which room do you think
Annabelle hesitated, feeling a bit guilty inside, but she didn't want to go along with him."You could just move around by yourself."Kendrick sighed and didn't force her. He tried to move his shoulders, but as soon as he turned, he gasped in cold air."What's wrong?" Annabelle frowned as she looked at him."It seems like a cramp, Dr. Sanchez. Do you have any solutions?"Kendrick called Dr. Sanchez repeatedly, just to ensure that Annabelle wouldn't feel burdened and could simply treat him as a patient.Then he could enjoy his wife's massage.Annabelle sighed in frustration, but eventually gave in.So he stood up, stood behind him, and began to massage his shoulders and back.As Annabelle's small hand came up, Kendrick felt completely relaxed and couldn't help but close his eyes, fully enjoying the massage.Although her hands were soft, they were not weak in strength. When she squeezed his trapezius muscle, Kendric
Since he didn't say anything, Annabelle decided not to ask anymore.Anyway, since I had already come, I decided to treat it as a trip regardless of what he was going to do.After Kendrick saw her fascination with everything, he asked, "Shall I take you for a walk?""Okay."Annabelle had enough sleep on the plane and wasn't in a hurry to go back to the hotel. She wanted to go shopping.This was her first time coming to a foreign country, while it was exciting, she also felt very insecure.Especially when the locals stared at the two of them, she felt even more uncomfortable.In fact, people were just admiring their beautiful Eastern looks.Kendrick then grabbed her hand and deliberately scared her, saying, "Hold on to me, or else we won't be able to go back home if we get lost."Annabelle really tightly held onto his big hand.Kendrick's lips curved slightly, thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being relied upon. If
This time, Kendrick didn't get angry, instead, he couldn't help but laugh.When Yolanda mistook her for Ariana just now, Kendrick noticed that she was unhappy.Did he care about his performance?After the two of them left, Yolanda was left confused.If Kendrick's wife was Ms. Sanchez, what was Ariana?Ariana was introduced by Kendrick. At that time, Kendrick did not explicitly say that they were lovers or in a romantic relationship. However, Yolanda, assuming one-sidedly, thought that Ariana was his girlfriend because Kendrick rarely had female friends.Later on, while communicating with Ariana online, Yolanda asked Ariana more than once about when she and Kendrick would get married.Recalling Ariana's reaction, it was indeed subtle. Although she never admitted to their relationship, she also never denied it, which made Yolanda even more certain that they were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.Now that I think about it, I
Kendrick drove and brought Annabelle to the hotel, where they checked in.When checking in, Annabelle noticed that he had only registered for one suite, so he frowned and glanced at Kendrick."In a foreign land, do you want to sleep alone?"Annabelle pursed her lips and didn't raise any objections, she really didn't want to.Just because we live in the same room doesn't mean we have to share a bed. There will always be a sofa in the room, so she can just make do with the sofa for one night if necessary.However, when the two of them arrived in the room, Annabelle was dumbfounded.The only place to sleep was a clean and soft double bed in the inner room, which enticed people to lie on it. There was no two-seater sofa at all."Come on, we've slept together before, it's not like it's a big deal," Kendrick said calmly.Annabelle thought to herself, "How can I not be nervous? Who knows what tricks this old fox has up his sleeve."And it seemed
Annabelle was speechless, but she also knew that Kendrick could say and do it.She didn't ask for another room, instead she coldly packed her backpack in silence.Kendrick, however, began to undress."What were you doing?""Take a shower and go to bed.""Weren't you just sleeping on the plane?""Three hours is not enough, I didn't sleep all night last night."The words were not finished, and Mr. Gregory had already taken off his shirt, revealing his well-defined abs. Annabelle blinked quickly and before she could look away, she noticed that he had already started taking off his trousers...Hooligan!Annabelle's face turned red, and she turned around and went back into the inner room of the suite, out of sight, out of mind.However, the sound of him taking off his clothes behind him was even more intriguing.Annabelle couldn't help but close her eyes and let out a sigh.After a while, the person behind her didn't make any so
Afterwards, Kendrick indeed kept his promise and did not bother her anymore. He took a shower and went to bed.Annabelle insisted on not lying with him, so she curled up on the single sofa and started reading magazines. However, after a while, she unknowingly fell asleep.When she woke up again, she realized that she had ended up on the bed, while Kendrick was working at the desk.Without asking, it was known that after she fell asleep on the single sofa, she was carried to bed by Kendrick.I looked at the time and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.Annabelle sat up and couldn't help but ask, "You brought me to Milan, not to stay in a hotel, right?"Kendrick lifted his head, approached the bed, and said with a smile, "If it's for staying at a hotel, I will take you to a better place."He took Annabelle's wrist and led her out of the bedroom onto the balcony.The balcony was semi-enclosed, with a circle of green plants arranged on it,
Annabelle nodded and thought to herself, "I am not a child anymore."Kendrick smiled and ruffled her hair before striding away from the concert hall.After the halftime break, the second half performance is about to start again, but Kendrick has not returned yet.Annabelle couldn't help but look towards the entrance. However, in that momentary glance, a familiar figure flashed by and took a seat in the VIP card room across.Young master!She almost blurted out, just as she was about to take a closer look, the lights in the hall went out and Kendrick returned to his seat on time."What are you looking at?" Kendrick whispered.Annabelle glanced deeply at the VIP lounge over there again and shook her head."Nothing."She thought that she must have been mistaken, it couldn't be just a coincidence to meet the young master here.Kendrick looked at her absent-minded expression and couldn't help but follow her gaze to the
As soon as Annabelle heard Kendrick's voice, her tightened heart relaxed a little."Kendrick, are my eyes... blind?"This was the problem she was most worried about.Kendrick's eyes darkened, then he smiled faintly and said, "No, it was washed off in time, and it will fully recover after a period of rest."His voice was deep and gentle, as his large palm lightly caressed her shoulder, soothing her emotions.But Annabelle felt uneasy, she smelled alcohol at that time, and it was very pungent. She suspected that Lisa had splashed something on her face, most likely something like industrial alcohol.And that kind of thing contained formaldehyde, which could cause blindness."Are you comforting me?""Of course not, besides, how long can I deceive you with such a thing?"Annabelle thought for a moment and realized that if she had really gone blind, she would have known soon enough. Kendrick had no reason to lie about it.
Annabelle heard footsteps coming from the hallway, and she wanted to shout for help.Lisa immediately covered her mouth and said sinisterly, "I had already placed the maintenance sign, no one will come to save you."Annabelle's heart sank, and at the same time, she felt a deep regret. Why didn't she let Kendrick come when he offered to accompany her just now?Could Kendrick detect that she was in danger in time?She couldn't see anything because her eyes were too painful, and she had almost no resistance. She only vaguely felt herself being dragged into a restroom cubicle by Lisa."I will ruin your face right now and see if you can still seduce men."Lisa gritted her teeth and finished speaking, then took out a dagger and stabbed Annabelle in the face.Annabelle immediately went to block with her hand, "You ruined me, Kendrick won't let you get away with this!""Hahaha... Since I dared to do this, I was no longer afraid of anyt
Annabelle thought Kendrick was in the same mood as her, so she handed him her phone.Kendrick flipped through and said lightly, "I don't like houses that others have lived in. Let's not consider Violet Villa anymore. Let's find another neighborhood.""No one has ever lived in it; it has been empty since it was bought.""Did you believe it just because someone said they haven't lived here before?"Annabelle pouted and couldn't continue the conversation."Do you really want to move next to Gauge's house?" Kendrick couldn't help but ask.Annabelle thought to herself, "Why does Kendrick always ask like this?""I simply liked the environment of that neighborhood.""Perhaps you liked other places as well.""Are you really not going to buy?" Annabelle frowned in frustration.Kendrick took a deep breath and looked at her in front of him. At that moment, he realized how deeply this little woman had been moved.If he
Annabelle understood the reason, but she had thin skin and couldn't bear his constant teasing."Are you really going or not?" Annabelle asked, her face turning red.Kendrick sighed helplessly and didn't tease her anymore. Afterward, the two of them went out together.Because Annabelle loved to eat fish, Kendrick took her to the best traditional restaurant in Elfhedge, the Coastal View Restaurant, where the fish fillet was very famous.Annabelle remembered that Kamila had said that Coastal View Restaurant was expensive and always fully booked. She said that if you wanted to eat there, you had to make a reservation three months in advance. She also mentioned how delicious the fish fillet was, and as she spoke, Kamila's mouth watered, imagining the day when she could indulge in a meal at Coastal View Restaurant."How long did you wait to book a seat?" Annabelle asked."I made a phone call and made a reservation.""Isn't it supposed to ta
"Hey Kendrick!"Annabelle stood up and was about to snatch her paper back, but Kendrick immediately pressed his hand on top of her head."Wait a moment, let me check."Annabelle immediately shook her head, freeing herself from his grasp.Then Kendrick took the pen from her hand, looked at the bitten pen barrel, and frowned as he rubbed it on his own clothes. "What's wrong with this, it's like being in elementary school, aren't you afraid of bacteria?"Annabelle, who was being looked down upon, felt extremely embarrassed and slightly annoyed. "What we are learning now is different from what you learned ten years ago. You probably won't understand."Kendrick glanced at her, feeling upset after being criticized, and then attacked her age."Do you think I have gotten old?"Annabelle gave a faint smile and said, "I dare not."Kendrick clicked his tongue, clearly expressing his disdain."Do you know that older men are t
Annabelle was slightly taken aback and thought that Gauge was probably just joking, so she smiled and said, "Of course, it would be great to be neighbors with you."But she was not a person who was enthusiastic about socializing, so the real reason she liked the neighborhood was because of the natural wetland ecological area where the neighborhood was located.But it's no use saying anything now, the house has already been sold, we can't just snatch it back from someone else's hands."Don't worry, I will help you find a solution.""Hmm? What method do you have?"Gauge smiled faintly and said, "Although all the houses have been sold, the occupancy rate in the community is not high. Perhaps someone wants to sell. I will ask for you and give you a reply tonight."Annabelle nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay," also thanking him for his help.Gauge looked at her dim eyes, which brightened up a little bit. His mood instantly turned better, a
The butler was taken aback. It turned out that Sir Murphy had been so enthusiastic towards Mrs. Gregory earlier because he wanted to invite her to be a spokesperson."It's probably not very appropriate. She is the young lady of the Gregory family, how could she easily show up, especially as the brand ambassador for the Murphy Group."Simon nodded silently, "But I feel like only she is suitable."After leaving the Murphy's residence, Annabelle was in a good mood.Kendrick didn't bother her, and he also didn't expect Gauge's father to be so kind and enthusiastic.Especially when leaving, she even said that she could come and visit often in the future, making her feel like she suddenly gained an additional biological family.She opened the car window, letting a gentle breeze from outside blow in. She also thought about what Kendrick had said earlier, that he would be moving over here next week. This made her feel even more excited.But t
Kendrick voluntarily put an end to the annoying "paper revision" topic that had been bothering him, and then expressed gratitude to Gauge for his previous help, before deciding to leave.However, before he could even get up, Simon asked Annabelle several questions.Kendrick couldn't leave immediately, so he calmly listened to how his wife would respond.As Annabelle answered, she pondered how Gauge's father suddenly became interested in her affairs.Just because she was his son's friend?Her fingers were almost numb from Kendrick's pinching.This guy was jealous. He saw Gauge's father caring for her as if he cared for his future daughter-in-law. When they went out for a while, would Kendrick take matters into his own hands and punish her on the spot?So Simon asked enthusiastically, and Annabelle answered nervously.In my free time, I would read books and practice playing the piano.I didn't dislike traveling, but I pref
Kendrick came to the Murphy's residence today to personally thank Gauge, as it was indeed thanks to Gauge that day.Secondly, it was also to let Simon know that Annabelle was his wife.Simon, being conservative and straightforward by nature, absolutely did not want his son to have too much intimate contact with Mrs. Gregory. Even if Gauge had any crooked intentions towards Annabelle in the future, as long as Simon was there to keep him in check, he would not dare to act recklessly.But why did he feel like Simon also liked Annabelle? Could it be that he was trying to help his son snatch her away?Thinking about this, Kendrick felt a wave of annoyance in his heart.However, he immediately dismissed this absurd speculation. Simon was definitely not a person without discretion. Sending an antique vase and inviting Annabelle as a guest was probably also a way to establish a closer relationship with the Gregory family.Annabelle was really surpri
