Chapter 279 Being His Dance Partner
Last Updated:
2025-03-01 18:04:02Soon, some news links about Kendrick popped up.
"Kendrick attended the project completion ceremony and performed the ribbon-cutting."
The Gregory Group once again achieved great success in the real estate industry, and Kendrick was interviewed by reporters.
"Mr. Reyes got married and Kendrick brought a luxurious gift."
Most of them are business-related, with a few being about the celebrity circle.
However, from the picture accompanying the news, it can be seen that Kendrick still looked extraordinary as usual, attracting attention wherever he went.
It can be seen that in those days without Annabelle, Kendrick was still the esteemed Mr. Gregory, the president of the Gregory Group, and his career was thriving and his life was perfect.
Perhaps she had already forgotten about her?
Then, a piece of gossip news caught her eye.
Kendrick may have secretly divorced Annabelle and is about to marry the daughter of the Murphy family

Annabelle didn't feel any other meaning in Robin's gaze, she just felt a bit amused and uncomfortable discussing the topic of "marriage between same-sex individuals" in front of an innocent child."...Robin, did you talk too much to the child?"Robin shrugged and said there was no problem in letting children understand the complexity of the world from an early age.Afterwards, Robin answered his son's question, saying that there is not only one form of marriage in the world, and that not all married people necessarily love each other. However, he still hopes that Henri will be able to marry someone he loves in the future.Henri nodded thoughtfully.Annabelle suddenly thought about what she would say if she had children in the future and they asked her what marriage is.I couldn't help but think of Kendrick, what would he say?The scene of the conversation between the big and small suddenly slipped through Annabelle's mind, and she cou

Kendrick had some acquaintance with the host of the mansion where the banquet was held, and as someone of his status, it was very easy for him to get the invitation, so he came.And then I saw a scene where she and that Crystalironese man were incredibly harmonious and well-matched.The man said something unknown, making her lower her head and chuckle.Then the man unexpectedly patted the hand she had placed on his arm, and she blushed!Kendrick felt like he was losing control. He just wanted to rush over immediately and carry the young woman on his shoulders back home.Just at that moment, the symphony orchestra in front of the banquet hall started playing a harmonious waltz, and the opening dance officially began.Kendrick barely suppressed his anger and took a sip of champagne.Watching her dance gracefully with that Crystalironese man, it reminded me of the first time they danced that same dance at their engagement banquet.

Annabelle walked out of the villa and crossed a short corridor, finally arriving at a deserted place, where she breathed a sigh of relief.At that moment, someone tapped her shoulder from behind.Annabelle was startled and turned around to see a blond-haired, blue-eyed man from Welledgese.It wasn't Kendrick, she breathed a sigh of relief.Later, she heard the man say in Crystalironese, "Beautiful Coldburnese princess, what made you leave in such a hurry? There are still two hours until the clock strikes twelve. Isn't it too early to escape now? Why not dance with me again, maybe I am your prince."Annabelle had a black line on her face. This man was so clueless, spouting cheesy sweet talk that was on par with Marvin."Sorry, I wasn't interested."Annabelle said and then tried to walk around the man.I thought that the people who came here would at least have some dignity, regardless of whether they had any dignity in private.

Annabelle turned around and looked, but she didn't see Kendrick's figure either. It seemed like he didn't follow.Being in a strange place, Annabelle found herself trapped in this maze garden again. All the fears came rushing in, making her feel anxious and confused. She started wandering aimlessly, but wherever she went, there was always a wall.When her fear reached its peak, a pair of arms embraced her."Why are you running around? If you get lost, just wait in the same place, I will come and find you."Although Kendrick was blaming, his tone was gentle.Annabelle's nose tingled, and she said, "The people I was waiting for, none of them came back, you don't have to say such nice things... um..."Before she could finish speaking, Kendrick had already kissed her lips.He kissed passionately, he kissed lingeringly, conveying to her all the longing he had for her during these days through this silent way.Annabelle initially str

Torture? Annabelle sneered."Kendrick, it was clearly you who tormented me."He already had a fiancée, yet he still flirted with her. What is it if not torment?She twisted her body, trying to break free from Kendrick's embrace.But the man's hands were always tightly holding onto her, as if afraid that if he let go, she would fly away."Come back with me, we can still get along like we used to, as long as you stay by my side."Annabelle thought bitterly, how could it be the same as before.What did you stay by his side for, as a mistress?"It's impossible, let go of me."Kendrick's deep eyes grew even darker, filled with pain and confusion.He didn't expect Annabelle to be so determined.When Annabelle left him, it was because she misunderstood that he wanted to kill Lisa, and she didn't want him to commit a crime. It wasn't because she disliked him that she left.Why, after not seeing each o
Last Updated : 2025-03-01I wish it were you Chapter 285 Can't Wait to Punish Her
Annabelle was startled, her back was sweating. She thought about how Kendrick wanted to kill Lisa before, and even gouge out her corneas. Moreover, Kendrick looked really terrifying at the moment.He might really speak and do as well...In order to temporarily avoid angering Kendrick and preventing him from hurting Robin and Henri, Annabelle had no choice but to say to Robin, "I will go with him first, don't worry..."Robin's eyes darkened, and his shoulders slumped dejectedly.Kendrick then once again picked up the person horizontally, turned around, and left without giving her a chance to speak to Robin again.Annabelle was so anxious that she slapped his chest and said, "Put me down and let me walk by myself!""Not let go.""They were all watching."At that time, there were guests in the garden, all of them were looking this way.Annabelle attended the banquet as Robin's companion, but she was taken away by another ma

The car drove through the internal corridor, with a lake on one side and presumably a flower field on the other side, but it was too dark to see clearly, only a dark shadow could be seen.When Annabelle lived in the Kirby's mansion, she had seen the buildings on this side of the lake and had been curious about this estate because in his estate, there were large fields of flowers planted along the hillside, giving the impression that he was a person who loved flowers.She had never thought that it would be Kendrick's house.Not far ahead, there stood a white building, with warm yellow lights shining through the transparent windows, reflecting on the surface of the lake, creating a shimmering and dreamlike effect.Annabelle suddenly felt very magical.I thought I would never have any intimate interaction with him again, at most just going to handle the divorce procedures and seeing him one last time when moving.I didn't expect to meet him her

"It was written in the news," Annabelle replied."Gossip news? It was fake."Annabelle blinked her eyes. She had always thought that Kendrick disliked gossip news exposing his own information, so if it was fake news, he would immediately have his people take it down, which is why she didn't suspect it.Now thinking about it, there were so many small media outlets everywhere, even though Kendrick was talented, he probably didn't have the time to personally manage each one.Well, even if the news was fake, that photo of us hugging, it couldn't be fake.Thinking about the situation where the two of them embraced, Annabelle furrowed her brow again."Is Robin really your fiancé?"Annabelle said irritably, "Didn't I say it before?""Did he ever kiss you?"When asked, Kendrick had already narrowed his dangerous eyes, but Annabelle didn't turn around and couldn't see his expression, so she fearlessly said, "Of course."

I wish it were you Chapter 940 Desire Fades
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
I wish it were you Chapter 938 You Must Leave
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
I wish it were you Chapter 933 Mr. Gregory Is So Wronged
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
I wish it were you Chapter 932 I Believe in Love Again
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
