Chapter 180 Why Don't You Give a Hug?
Last Updated:

Seeing Ariana with her eyes tightly closed and a pale face, it seemed like she couldn't speak anymore.
Kendrick gently placed her on the ground, cradling her back with his arms, and said to Annabelle, "Anna, take a look at this, see what's going on."
Annabelle was a medical student. Saving lives and treating illnesses was an instinctive reaction for her. She immediately crouched beside Ariana, opened her eyelids to take a look, and then checked her pulse by lifting her wrist.
Pretty healthy, the heart rate was a bit fast, but the pulse was strong and vigorous, and there was no fainting or shock reaction.
Other than Annabelle, Ms. Murphy could possibly come in first if she ran an 800-meter race.
At the same time, Annabelle also discovered something interesting.
The bandage on Ariana's foot was just for show, it could deceive th

Annabelle thought to herself, "If Kendrick leaves the delicate Ariana behind and comes to take care of me, wouldn't it make her sad?"Previously, Lisa envied Annabelle, causing her to almost lose face. She didn't want to make any more enemies.Because she had already realized that these girls who liked Kendrick were all tough characters, she herself was just a naive little bunny from the mountains, unable to withstand their antics, and had no intention of competing with them for men."Seamus was taking care of her."Kendrick was a man, with a rather blunt emotional nature, unaware of Annabelle's subtle emotions.He thought Annabelle was too strong-willed, but now that she has twisted her ankle, she is too embarrassed to let him see and is just gritting her teeth."I was really fine... Ouch, it hurts!"As soon as he pressed on the injured area of Annabelle, she couldn't help but cry out in pain."Both swollen, but you're fine. I

"Hey, Kendrick! Put me down!"Annabelle patted Kendrick's back, but the old fox didn't let go and ignored her.She was like a hunted rabbit, helplessly lying on Kendrick's shoulder, under the shocked gaze of Scott and Seamus, under the sinister gaze of Ariana, being carried by Kendrick all the way to the parking lot and stuffed into the passenger seat.Annabelle glared at Kendrick angrily, so furious that her ankles didn't even hurt.How can she not be angry? She is already an adult, being carried around like this, losing face.However, Kendrick started the car expressionlessly and glanced at her indifferently, saying, "Seatbelt."Annabelle, with anger, pulled the seatbelt across and with a click, inserted it into the slot.Kendrick also angrily stepped on the accelerator, and the car drove away from the club's parking lot.Seamus, Scott, and Ariana had also arrived at the parking lot and witnessed the scene where Kendrick arro

Annabelle opened her eyes wide and looked at Kendrick, as if she didn't know what he was saying, and asked in return, "Why should I be jealous?"Kendrick listened and gave a bitter smile."That was me being sentimental. Do you want to stay here, or should I carry you upstairs?""It was right here.""Okay, then I went upstairs first. Call me if you need anything."After Kendrick left, Annabelle fell into deep thought. Was she really feeling jealous?Immediately, Annabelle shook her head. It was impossible for her to like Kendrick, at most it was because she saw Ariana playing mind games and Kendrick was completely oblivious, she was just worried for him.But then I realized, why was I in such a hurry?It is normal for a woman who has fallen in love to play some tricks for the man she likes. Why should she be so concerned about it?So I stopped overthinking.Annabelle stayed at home for a week, and the swelling in h

Annabelle smiled and, in fact, she only played the piano for her own amusement, never really considering performing on stage.However, seeing how excited her friend was, she decided to agree to Kamila's request and give it a try.If fortunate enough to be chosen, that would be great. If not chosen, at least Kamila tried her best and should have no regrets.As soon as Annabelle agreed, Kamila couldn't be happier. She immediately told Annabelle a few songs she had been considering and the two of them started discussing and choosing one as their performance piece.Gauge's attention was always focused on the conversation between Annabelle and Kamila, so he didn't hear what Hayley said at all. It was only when the people around him stopped talking that he realized the atmosphere was a bit awkward."Sorry, what did you just say?"Hayley gave a bitter smile and said with a hint of disappointment, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if there are any

Annabelle's eyes lit up: "Weren't you uninterested in acting?"She remembered that many girls had come to find Gauge before, wanting him to participate in the show together, but he had refused and said he wasn't interested.Gauge pursed his lips and said, "Even if it's just a friendly support, isn't Kamila also quite regretful?"That's true to say, the song was adapted by Kamila, and she put a lot of effort into it. It ended up being aborted like this, and she is very regretful.Annabelle saw it all and hoped to help her bring the melody to life."We need to practice as soon as possible, I'm not sure if we can cooperate well."Gauge laughed after listening, "When have we ever not worked well together?"Annabelle smiled and realized that when she had previously sought advice from Gauge on classical harp playing techniques, they had also tried playing some pieces together and had coordinated well.Therefore, Gauge didn't think ab

But Mr. Gregory still suppressed the sourness in his heart, and lightly tugged at the corners of his mouth, managing to squeeze out a smile."Okay, very good. I wish you a successful performance."He knew that he couldn't stop her.He watched Annabelle from the beginning, unwilling to go on stage to perform, to later actively preparing, from being excited and elated after being selected, to feeling nervous and anxious as the performance approached.Kendrick saw everything.He knew that Annabelle cherished this opportunity to perform and was filled with anticipation. Since it was something she loved doing, he should fully support her and not be jealous.Annabelle looked at his ugly smile and the words that seemed to be gritted through his teeth, and instantly felt a chill run down her spine.This man was possessive and jealous, he must have been unhappy.Why suddenly do I have an ominous premonition that an old fox is up to misc

"Why?" Seamus asked, puzzled.Kendrick said lightly, "She didn't want her classmates to know about our relationship.""Kendrick, were you so humble?"Kendrick frowned unhappily, turned off the speaker, and picked up his phone. "Is there anything else?"Afterwards, Seamus said something else that Annabelle didn't hear, but Kendrick also quickly hung up the phone.Annabelle glared at him with a gloomy face.Kendrick walked past her, paused for a moment, and smiled as he patted her shoulder. "Don't be nervous, it's okay. Even if the performance goes wrong, your husband won't make fun of you."Annabelle's cosmos exploded."How did you know that I would mess up the performance?""You have only been learning for a few days, it's normal to feel nervous on stage and make mistakes. It's okay, don't worry."Kendrick's tone was like that of an older brother encouraging his impulsive younger sister, and when he mentioned the

Kendrick's gaze was so intense that it inexplicably made Annabelle feel suffocated.It was even more uncomfortable than standing on stage and being stared at by ten thousand people individually, causing the eyelashes to tremble involuntarily."It's just me, are you still nervous?"Annabelle furrowed her brows and calmly said, "I wasn't nervous."His gaze was too audacious, as if he could devour her completely at any moment, making her feel a little uneasy.Kendrick smiled, didn't say anything, changed his sitting position, and forcefully suppressed the restless thoughts in his mind, playing the role of an audience member properly.Annabelle had already brought over a wooden dining chair, stepped onto a professional footstool, embraced a classical guitar, and was ready.Then she lifted those captivating beautiful eyes, glanced lightly at Kendrick, and curled her lips as if saying, "Old fox, listen to me carefully."The piece to

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
I wish it were you Chapter 238 Just Couldn't Help but Want to Treat Her Well
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
I wish it were you Chapter 237 Too Enthusiastic
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
