Last Updated:
2025-02-13 18:01:03Kendrick put on Annabelle's clothes, leaned against the stone wall, and indeed felt a bit more comfortable, but still shivered intermittently.
"Is it still cold?"
Annabelle touched his forehead again, checked his temperature, and it seemed even hotter than before.
"I'm much better now." Kendrick couldn't bear to see her worry, so he lied and then reached out with his big hand, pulling Annabelle into his arms, letting her sit on his lap, leaning against his chest. "But this way would be even better."
At that moment, Kendrick didn't think too much, he just felt sorry for Annabelle, after all, she was hardly wearing anything and would only be colder than him.
Annabelle did not struggle, she knew that for Kendrick, she was just a little warm baby who could breathe now.
Of course, this way she would also feel a bit warmer, truly huddling together for warmth.
"I don't know when the person who will save us will come," Annabelle worriedly loo

Annabelle rubbed her forehead and said, "Can't I read a book by myself?"This answer gave Kendrick a peace of mind, and he immediately asked, "What kind of books have you been reading? It seems quite comprehensive.""Kendrick, could you please be quiet for a moment?"Being trapped in this cave, Annabelle's mind was already in a mess. And he kept on saying these words. How could Annabelle not go crazy?After being angrily scolded by Annabelle, Kendrick sighed and obediently kept quiet.The man behind her seemed at ease, and Annabelle felt tired as well.She had been mentally tense all along, but now the two of them embraced each other, and she found solace in her heart, and drowsiness swept over her.After dozing off in a drowsy state, I even had a dream.She dreamt of herself eating a cake, the cake was soft, sweet, and had a grape flavor.Wait, why does this cake still have a faint tobacco smell?Annabelle sudden

"I picked it."Annabelle spoke, pulling her wrist out of Kendrick's hand, and lowered her head without looking at him.She couldn't even look Kendrick in the eyes now, nor could she have any physical contact with him, let alone speak to him.Because every time she had contact with him, all the little gestures Kendrick made in the cave would come rushing back to her mind.And, for the past three nights, Annabelle had been dreaming the same scenario every evening - once in her bedroom, once on the beach, and even once in a car. Although each dream was interrupted by Jax's appearance, Annabelle felt that her thoughts had become impure.So, rather than saying that Annabelle ignored Kendrick these past few days because she was angry, it would be more accurate to say that she was actually shy and deliberately avoiding him.Kendrick had no idea what she was thinking. Seeing her looking like she didn't want to be touched by him, he felt uncomfortabl

Upon hearing Fabian's voice, Annabelle was greatly surprised and then glanced at the incoming phone number before bursting into laughter."Great designer, since you missed me so much, why didn't you give me a call even once?"During the time Fabian attended Fashion Week, Annabelle knew he was busy like a spinning top every day, so she didn't bother him and as a result, they hardly had any contact.I suddenly received a call from Fabian from abroad at this moment, which was quite unexpected."I will arrive at Elfhedge tomorrow. There are some things I want to tell you in person. The plane arrives at 8 o'clock in the morning. Do you have time to come to the airport?""Do you have time? What happened?"Annabelle sensed the seriousness in his tone, if it wasn't something very important, why would he want to meet her right after getting off the plane.Fabian on the other end of the phone remained silent for two seconds before saying, "It's

Annabelle did not answer immediately. At this moment, she had already taken his hand and was carefully discerning and judging.Three days ago, they were trapped in a cave. She examined Kendrick, thinking he just had a cold and fever at that time. Now, upon reevaluation, Annabelle realizes that things are not as simple as she thought.Perhaps he had not fully recovered from typhoid fever, but he should not have been so hasty and disorganized."Did you drink alcohol?"Kendrick shook his head, he wanted to drink, but he remembered what Annabelle had cautioned, so he didn't touch a drop.Annabelle looked up at his face again and asked, "Have you had any difficulty breathing recently?""Occasionally."Annabelle pondered for a moment, put away the pat, and helped Kendrick roll down his sleeves."I suggested that you go to the hospital now.""Is it that serious?" Kendrick couldn't help but furrow his brow."Well, I'm a b

Kendrick didn't even look and directly reached out to turn it off, while also shutting down the central control screen. However, his expression became even more gloomy.Annabelle glanced at him, and she also felt a bit puzzled in her heart, "Why didn't he answer? Calling so late, maybe there's an emergency?""Harassing calls, ignore them."After Kendrick finished speaking, he suddenly started coughing violently.This cough, once it started, was a bit uncontrollable.He drove with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, coughing more and more violently."I'm not feeling well, so let's pull over," Annabelle said worriedly.Kendrick shook his head and was about to speak, but as he moved his hand away from his mouth, he discovered that his palm was covered in blood.Annabelle's heart lifted up all of a sudden."Kendrick, stop the car quickly!"At this moment, Kendrick also felt a little overwhelmed. He didn't e

As Annabelle anxiously turned around to flag down a car, she saw a signpost. According to the instructions, the vehicle would enter the internal road of Violet Villa after making a right turn.She suddenly remembered that Gauge had mentioned before that his house was located here.If Gauge could come and give them a ride, the time would be cut in half.Without hesitation, Annabelle took out her phone and dialed Gauge's number.Although it was very disturbing to disturb someone at three in the morning, Annabelle had no choice as it was a matter of life and death. Now, she could only hope that Gauge wasn't sleeping too deeply.Fortunately, the phone was answered after only two rings.Gauge's sleepy voice came through, "Anna?""Gauge, I am on the main road outside your villa area. Kendrick fell ill and needs to go to the hospital immediately, but he can't drive anymore. I couldn't hail a taxi either. Can you give us a ride?"Gauge

In this sentence, Kendrick enunciated clearly, and both Annabelle and Gauge heard it.Gauge glanced at Annabelle silently, a look of concern flashing across his face. He wanted to ask her if something had gone wrong between her and Kendrick.But afraid that she didn't want to speak, she ultimately didn't say anything.Annabelle was also puzzled in her heart. Previously, Kendrick had used some means, quite harsh and decisive, to try to keep her, but she didn't see him in a difficult situation.So this sentence obviously had another meaning, seemingly because of something, it made him have to leave...However, these thoughts only lingered in Annabelle's mind for a moment. Immediately, she remembered that EMS was still on their way here, so she quickly made another phone call to inform them not to come.Afterwards, the three of them successfully arrived at the hospital, and Kendrick was taken to the emergency room.During the wait, Annab

Annabelle rubbed her temples, it seemed that she really didn't remember anything about what happened later last night."What if, by the time he arrives, I'm already dead? Then won't you become a young widow?""Kendrick!"As soon as Annabelle heard this, she became anxious and slammed the water cup onto the table, saying, "If it weren't for Gauge yesterday, you would have already been dead."Seeing that he still didn't agree, Annabelle explained the cause and effect to him again.After waiting for a full explanation, Annabelle herself became thirsty and directly drank half of the water poured for her.Kendrick picked up the cup, finished the remaining drink, and said blandly, "What's the rush? Once I get discharged, I'll personally thank him.""You have a conscience," Annabelle muttered.Kendrick did not respond and then fell into deep thought.Seeing him remain silent, Annabelle glanced at him and asked, "Are you thinkin

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
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

The car stopped outside the Murphy's residence, and after Annabelle got out, she went to the front gate with Kendrick.Kendrick rang the doorbell, and soon a man in his fifties came out to open the door."Good morning, Mr. Gregory and Mrs. Gregory! I am Kim Reid, the butler of the Murphy family. Sir is currently on a phone call in the living room, so I apologize for not being able to personally greet you. Please follow me."Annabelle was a little surprised and glanced at Kendrick.She thought she would come today just to meet Gauge, say thank you, and then go back. She didn't expect to also have a meeting with Gauge's father. Is it going to be this formal?Kendrick noticed her confusion and leaned in closer to her, whispering, "By the way, let's talk business."Annabelle nodded and didn't ask any more questions, following the butler into the house.Under the guidance of the butler, the two of them walked through the entrance hall and

Annabelle had completely lost her temper. When faced with a rascal, if you couldn't be even more rascally than him, you could only admit defeat.The two of them had breakfast and went out together. Kendrick was driving the car, and Annabelle was sitting in the passenger seat."Don't you have to go to the hospital for an infusion today?"Annabelle noticed that he had dark circles under his eyes and his complexion wasn't very good. She estimated that he hadn't slept well on the sofa last night, and combined with the fact that he had been poisoned before, she couldn't help but worry about him a little."No need, you promptly took me to the hospital and it didn't cause any serious damage.""So you have to thank Gauge."If it weren't for someone driving Kendrick over at three o'clock in the morning, the situation wouldn't have been so optimistic.Kendrick glanced at her and smiled, "Isn't this just to personally come and say thank you?"

Kendrick's kiss was oppressive, suffocating, and completely passive for Annabelle.Soon, she felt herself severely lacking oxygen, feeling dizzy and her body starting to weaken.And it seems like Kendrick hasn't stopped yet.She had to pat Kendrick's back.Kendrick caught her restless little hand and lifted it above her head, pressing it onto the bed, and continued kissing her.Annabelle couldn't bear it anymore and let out a painful whimper.Kendrick then raised his head slightly and whispered, "This is the price that makes me jealous, remember?"Annabelle pouted her mouth, feeling wronged and on the verge of tears.She felt like the fish on the chopping board, Kendrick could chop and eat her however he pleased."Remembered."Annabelle was scared of this guy and didn't dare to be tough anymore. She had to soften her tone and asked him.Kendrick finally gave in to the little woman and lay down on his side,
