Annabelle was taken aback and nervously smiled, "Oh? Are you awake?"

"It seems like the illness has completely healed?" Kendrick looked at her ambiguously, while his hand gently squeezed her slender waist.

Annabelle's face turned red. "Don't misunderstand me, I was just... just..."

"Hmm?" Kendrick looked at her with a half-smile, "Just what?"

Annabelle bit her lip, thinking that if she confessed to stealing the phone, it would be like giving herself away.

But if not telling the truth, then what to say, should I say I want to give him a morning kiss?

No way, no way, if she dares to make up stories like that, Kendrick would definitely go ahead and make it a done deal right away.

"I wanted to delete the photos you secretly took of me, but I only unlocked your screen without looking at any of the content on your phone or touching your photo album. That's it."

Annabelle was about to leave him as she spoke, but Kendrick felt that this perspective of her was refreshing and it felt good, so h

    Kendrick couldn't help but laugh, "Jax is just avoiding suspicion. When I am around in the future, you can go and treat him, and he won't shut the door on you."Sure enough, with Kendrick's company, Annabelle went to treat Jax again, and Jax became more cooperative.Annabelle didn't blame Kendrick, but she also felt that she should be more careful in the future. After all, she was not just a doctor, but also Kendrick's wife in Jax's eyes. She should avoid suspicion so as not to make others feel uncomfortable.After recovering from her illness, Annabelle thought about learning to drive and also about returning to school for classes.So I called Kamila and asked about the progress of the course and if there were any changes to the schedule.Kamila said that the classes for this semester had already been finished, and this month was basically for review. At the end of the month, the official exam week would begin.Annabelle was very frustrated. Was she already going to fail her first sem

    The next day, Annabelle put on a big sweater and went out.Just as she took a couple of steps forward, Kendrick, who was behind her, pulled her back into the house. Then Mr. Gregory put a coat on her, placed a hat on her head, and tied a scarf around her neck. He satisfiedly adjusted the pom-pom on her hat and said, "It's perfect.""Just two steps away, there's no need to wear so much..."Annabelle looked reluctant, she had planned to visit Simon looking beautiful, but now her fluffy hair from the morning breeze would definitely be flattened by the hat."You just healed the scar and forgot the pain; did you forget how uncomfortable you were when you were sick a few days ago?"Kendrick sighed in his heart as he trained her, feeling like he had raised a daughter.I thought she was quite an independent girl, but sometimes she was not as careful as he thought.She is not just an expert in long-term illness, she simply doesn't take long-term illness seriously.Annabelle pouted, knowing he

    When Annabelle arrived, it was not yet mealtime, so the two of them followed Simon to the small living room.Housekeeper Kim had already packed up the prepared items and handed them over to Annabelle, saying they were specially prepared for her.It was a small bamboo basket, and the contents inside were clear at a glance - several boxes of blueberries and two boxes of coffee.Simon said to Annabelle, "I heard that blueberries protect eyesight. Luckily, I have a small blueberry orchard in the south. I had someone pick some for you just yesterday afternoon. Although they're not anything special, the blueberries here should taste better than the ones you buy at the supermarket. I have already asked Kim to put the contact information of the orchard staff in the box. After you finish eating, you just need to send a WhatsApp message to them, and someone will continue to deliver them to you."Then I told Annabelle that herbal tea could cleanse the liver and improve eyesight, so I prepared tw

    Annabelle was in a cheerful mood, and her eyes curved into a smile. "Hmm, it reminded me of the taste of my grandma's cooking."Simon was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter, saying, "That's quite a high praise for me.""Hey? Is this... made by you?""Not like?"Annabelle only just noticed that Simon was indeed dressed comfortably and casually today. When they had greeted them earlier, his sleeves were slightly rolled up, and he even reminded Kim to be careful with the stove while speaking.I didn't think much about it before, but now I realize that Simon cooked this meal himself.Annabelle's good impression of Simon was steadily increasing. How could one not like such a refined and handsome middle-aged man who not only managed a large corporation but also excelled in culinary skills?At the same time, Mrs. Murphy and Stacy became even more curious, wondering what kind of woman could be so lucky to marry Simon and have such a handsome and talented son.Kendrick glanced

    With that, Simon quickly added, "Regarding the signing fee, the Murphy Group will definitely come up with a price that satisfies Annabelle. Although money is certainly not a determining factor in your eyes, this does represent our sincerity as the Murphy Group."As Annabelle listened to Simon's earnest invitation, she could feel how highly he regarded her. Whether or not she would accept this invitation, she knew she had to take it seriously.Annabelle asked what the requirements were for being a spokesperson and what things she needed to comply with.Simon took out the drafted contract and handed it to Annabelle directly. "The contract includes some requirements, but they are all just procedures and formalities. Everything can be adjusted according to your situation. Take a look first, and if there are any parts you don't understand, I can explain them to you."Annabelle had never dealt with this type of contract before. Although she knew Simon wouldn't include any unfair terms, she

    Upon hearing Annabelle's affirmative response, Simon immediately smiled and said, "Annabelle, if you have any requests, feel free to speak up.""I wanted to start endorsement activities after the exams were over. Because I had fallen behind on some courses, I wanted to catch up as soon as possible."Simon secretly admired, in the face of external disturbances, he remained calm and focused on his studies. Young people should be like this, prioritizing their academics.Although Simon wanted Annabelle to start endorsing immediately, he then chuckled and said, "No problem, the previous spokesperson's contract hasn't expired yet. You can focus on studying and have a good rest during the winter vacation, and then come to endorse later.""Thank you, Mr. Murphy," Annabelle said, glancing cautiously at Kendrick again.Although he appeared calm on the surface, Annabelle could already sense that Kendrick would probably have a serious talk with her later.After all, she made this decision a bit q

    Although Annabelle was wealthy and powerful, she took it upon herself to accept endorsements, which indeed affected Kendrick.Therefore, Annabelle took a deep breath and continued, "Actually, I used to have a necklace that was very similar in style to Simon's latest jewelry collection. It was the only thing my grandmother left me, so when I saw those catalogs, it felt very familiar and I really wanted to endorse them next."She patiently explained, seemingly genuinely hoping that he would understand.Kendrick's anger had long dissipated by now, and for him, her earnest explanation was already enough.Anyway, I never intended to stop her from the beginning.Just hearing her mention the necklace, Kendrick's attention shifted to this matter as well."Which necklace, why have I never seen you wear it?""The necklace had long been taken back by my mother," Annabelle frowned as she spoke of it."Wasn't it given to you by grandma?"Annabelle pursed her lips, her mother wanted to claim her th

    Annabelle snapped back to reality and quickly blinked her eyes. "Who said that? I was just thinking..."Kendrick's smile grew wider, "What are you thinking?""Didn't you say before that I was your wife and no one would dare to provoke me?"Her statement instantly lifted Kendrick's mood. He thought to himself, "It's all because you used to hide our relationship from us. I thought you were going to deny me again.""I thought you were going to have a secret marriage again."Annabelle sighed and said, "Even if I wanted to hide, I might not be able to hide it."After all, taking on the endorsement, especially from a big company like the Murphy Group, also meant putting oneself in an absolutely public position.This is different from going to school.With a cunning smile, she said, "Besides, if it benefits you to mention it, I don't have to stubbornly refuse."With her words, Kendrick did remember.Before, she was bullied at school. Some people said that she was being financially supported

    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

    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
