I wish it were you Chapter 35 Fairy
There were only four people in this group, Kendrick, Seamus Morse, Scott Nichols, who was the present of the Nichols Group, and Ariana Murphy. They knew each other from childhood.Kendrick parked the car in the garage and glanced at his phone.Seamus was surprised. "Did I see wrong? The busy Mr. Gregory was waiting in line to buy roasted chestnuts? @Kendrick"Kendrick replied, "Are you jealous?"Seamus was speechless and replied, "Please be nice to singles."Scott asked, "Ken, when will you hold a wedding? I've prepared a big gift for you."Kendrick replied, "No plan right now."Ariana replied, "Ken, when will you lead Annabelle to see us?"Actually, Kendrick wanted to bring Annabelle to see his friends. Last time, his grandfather's birthday banquet was a good occasion. However, Lisa suddenly appeared and then Annabelle got drunk. They had to leave early that day.And only their family members knew that they had registered. They didn't tell the public, and even his friends didn't know

Annabelle heard her name and walked out. She asked what it was.The errand boy handed the supplements to her and said, "Please sign for it.""I didn't buy this. Who sent it here?""Marvin Gregory."She wondered why Marvin suddenly sent this to her.Annabelle felt strange and glanced at Kendrick beside her.Kendrick didn't know what happened either."Please send it back. I'll pay for it."When the errand boy left, Marvin got a message. Then he called Annabelle."Anna, why do you send it back? These supplements are good for girls. It's good for your health...""I have everything I need. I don't want this. And don't send me these things later."After that, Annabelle hung up the phone.Marvin looked at his phone and was deep in thought.He wondered, "It's impossible that she has everything she needs.But it might be true that Annabelle doesn't need these. After all, she was so beautiful and her skin was delicate and fair. She doesn't need these supplements. I'm so silly. I should think ab

Annabelle's expression froze. She turned her head, stared at him, and wanted to break free from him.Kendrick whispered into her ear, "Don't move. Someone is watching us."Annabelle widened her beautiful eyes in anger, but she believed in him and stopped resisting. She then said to the person on the screen, "I have things to do. Gotta go."The video call finally ended.Kendrick glanced at the face of that person and found it familiar. However, Annabelle's phone screen had turned dark, so he didn't have the chance to take another look.The soft and smooth hair of the woman in his arms was stuck to his chest, making him feel somewhat restless."Is that guy still there?""He's gone." Kendrick let go of her."Where was he? Why couldn't I see him?" asked Annabelle."Over there." Kendrick pointed at the fence and began to make up a story. "It's a competitor of my company who lives in the same housing complex as us. If he learned that our relationship was fake and spread it, it would be a bi

After the call with Trey was disconnected, Kendrick tugged at his tie.He knew what Trey implied.But how should he do that? Force her to have sex with him?Annabelle grew up at Springvale Temple alone in her childhood, so she must have been bullied a lot. It would be inhumane of him if he bullied her with the excuse of their marriage.At least at this moment, Kendrick couldn't accept Trey's advice.After Annabelle returned to the bedroom, she texted Fabian.After all, their communication was interrupted by Kendrick."I was caught up in something just now and didn't finish what I wanted to say. You should take the medicine I prescribed you according to the instructions. Tell me when you finish it. I'll give you another treatment plan.""OK. I'll be waiting."Annabelle smiled when she looked at Fabian's reply."Sleep early then. I'm going to sleep as well. Good night."Annabelle had few friends over the years, and Fabian was one of her best friends.They knew each other because of Fabi

Raphael already began to sob, "They will chop my hands off if I can't repay the debt. Please come here..."What followed was a burst of noise, and the call was disconnected.Annabelle was irritated.She used to have a good impression of Raphael and after this call was finished, she already saw him as a playboy.The point was that Raphael didn't know if she had that much money before asking. Did he think she had become his cash cow after she was married into the Gregory family?The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Annabelle just put away the phone and decided not to care.However, she couldn't calm down. She couldn't stop worrying.Raphael didn't seem to be lying.If she ignored him, would his limbs be chopped off?Annabelle wasn't that determined after thinking like this.Finally, she sighed. She would help him, and she would tell him that it would be both her first time and last time helping him out.She could afford 80 thousand dollars.She had treated quite a few

Raphael widened his eyes. "Damn you. This is my older sister."After saying this, he continued escorting Annabelle and turned his head to laugh into her ear. "Annabelle, you're so attractive that they can't stop looking at you."Raphael was proud when he said this.But at that moment, Annabelle had a pale face and couldn't feel happy at all.She hated being stared at like this and even felt a bit horrified.She was more upset when she heard Raphael's joke and glared at him.Raphael didn't notice it at all and still excitedly led the way.Annabelle was confused. Raphael didn't look like he had lost 80 thousand dollars, or, was the money so little to him that he didn't even care?But that made sense. The Sanchez family was rich after all, and even Briley's handbag would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.It was because they squandered the money instead of managing it, the family that was once one of the Four Great Families in Elfhedge had fallen.Now, the family's business had b

As soon as the woman spoke, she immediately attracted many onlookers. Everyone stretched their necks and looked over as if watching a show.Recently, Annabelle has been the hottest topic in the celebrity circle.The men and women present were all from the so-called upper class society. They had long heard about the mysterious heiress of the Sanchez family, who was jilted by the second son of the Gregory family at the engagement banquet. It was quite embarrassing, but she turned around and got engaged to Kendrick, the most esteemed man in Elfhedge.She didn't have many opportunities to appear in public, so various rumors started to spread online. Some said she was extremely ugly, while others claimed she was as beautiful as a goddess.As soon as they heard, everyone started discussing that the woman in front of them was Annabelle."That's Annabelle, so beautiful. She's definitely not an ugly girl.""Gemma Pratt is also impressive. She truly lives up to her reputation as a supermodel. H

Annabelle looked up in panic and was about to say thank you when she saw that it was Kendrick who was holding her.The girl next to me had already exclaimed and screamed.Characters like Kendrick are not something they can easily come across. At this moment, their eyes were sparkling, infatuated, saying, "It's really Kendrick! He's even more handsome than in the photos.""Wow, he's so cool! I wish it was me that he was hugging..."Those girls were excitedly talking and crazily taking photos.Annabelle couldn't help shaking her head when she saw this, thinking to herself, "You guys are still too naive. You don't know how cunning this person is. He may look handsome, but he has a wicked heart.""Where did it hurt?" Kendrick frowned and asked.Annabelle shook her head, while also showing a hint of slight dissatisfaction towards him.The black sports car parked outside, it really belonged to Kendrick.He did come to this colorful place for socializing, and the old fox indeed was not a goo

I wish it were you Chapter 551 A Cold-Hearted Person?
After Mary returned to Elfhedge, she worked in domestic services, and one of her employers was Lisa. Upon learning that Lisa knew Kendrick, she hoped Lisa could help her get in touch with him.However, Lisa told her that Kendrick had already married a young lady.Emilia was kind-hearted and gentle, unwilling to disturb him further, but Mary felt her daughter had been wronged. So, through Lisa, she proactively sought out Kendrick, hoping he would take responsibility for Emilia.But Kendrick was indecisive, delaying over and over again. He continued to be affectionate with Annabelle while still maintaining a complicated relationship with Emilia.Later, Mary discovered that Lisa also had feelings for Kendrick and even became mentally unstable because of him.So, Kendrick was juggling three women at once!Mary was about to expose him when she accidentally bumped into Linda at the psychiatric hospital, which led to this conversation.After
I wish it were you Chapter 550 Exposing Someone
"Business?" Marvin snorted coldly and looked up at her.His once handsome features were now shadowed by a layer of sadness, making him appear somewhat grim and sinister.The girl, however, showed no fear. She met his gaze with a glint of slyness in her eyes.Pouring herself a glass of wine, she swirled the drink, her lips curling into a smirk as she glanced sideways at Marvin."Your beloved woman became your sister-in-law. I bet you’re not happy about that, are you, Young Master?"Marvin tightened his grip on the glass, his expression growing darker and more terrifying."Spit it out. I don’t have time for your nonsense," he said, his tone ice-cold.He was skilled at reading people. Whether they were celebrities or street thugs, he’d encountered all kinds.This woman, Linda, was no exception. The look on her face now clearly indicated she was holding a trump card.She smiled, a slyness that didn’t quite match her age.

“Linda?” Marvin read the girl’s name off the business card, casting her a cold glance.The girl quickly nodded and bowed, smiling. “Yes, it’s me, in the flesh!”Still talking slick when she’s in such deep trouble? Was she raised in a den of rogues?Marvin frowned but didn’t engage her further. Instead, he tucked her business card into his pocket.The elevator reached their floor.“Get out. Walk ahead,” Marvin ordered, pushing the girl out of the elevator, treating her like a criminal being escorted.When they arrived at his apartment door, Marvin scanned his fingerprint to unlock it and gave her a push. She stumbled inside.He shut the door and locked it.She didn’t scream. Instead, she stood still, turning around with a pitiful look on her face. Submissively, she said, “Young Master, I don’t have the looks or the figure. Since you’ve made your

The girl’s face turned pale. “Mr. Gregory, Young Master, Big Brother! I have no money, no looks, just a worthless life. I’m not worth dirtying your hands. Please, let me go.”Marvin glared at her coldly. “Cut the act.”The last time she tricked him, Marvin wasn’t going to fall for it again.He locked the car door and started the engine aggressively.“Hey! You can’t drive after drinking so much! Ah—!”Before the girl could say more, the car shot out onto the road.The girl held tightly onto the roof handle, her face drained of color, but her mouth never stopped.“Big Brother, I know I was wrong, really! Please pull over. We can talk it through! If you want to take me somewhere, I’ll drive you there! It’s not worth it for you to risk your life over mine!”Marvin glared at the woman beside him. She had a point.He had been drinking, and driving now felt like steering a boat on choppy waters—the road was uneven, swaying side to side.To punish this little liar, risking his own life was ce
I wish it were you Chapter 547 Young Master, Calm Down
She was a journalist.About a month ago, Annabelle had come to Marvin’s apartment to pick up a cat, and Marvin invited her to stay for dinner. Annabelle drank some strong liquor and ended up sleeping over. Marvin had planned to use the opportunity to create a scandal by inviting a reporter to photograph them, but things backfired when Kendrick intervened. Not only did Kendrick take Annabelle away, but he also placed a man in Marvin’s bed.The reporters managed to snap pictures of him and the male escort in bed together. However, almost all of them were threatened into deleting the photos, except for this particular young reporter who claimed she had already sent them out.After the "bean sprout" girl showed her friend the photo, she quickly put her phone away."So, what do you think? Not bad, right?"Her friend gave a thumbs-up. "Definitely developed! You really know how to work it. But how did you figure out it’s just the lower body developed and not the brain?"The girl laughed misc

Marvin was feeling irritated that night. Unable to sleep, he went to the garden for some fresh air, but unexpectedly ran into Kendrick and Annabelle.He couldn’t resist following them all the way into the depths of the garden, watching as they entered the flower room.Several times, he thought about interrupting their date, but he held himself back, refraining from making a sound.He even imagined it was him walking in the garden with Annabelle instead.The things Kendrick did for her, he could do too! Why couldn’t Annabelle accept him?Watching them embrace and kiss, Marvin felt an intense surge of jealousy. Just as he was about to lose control, he saw Kendrick remove Annabelle’s clothes…Through the fogged-up glass and with Kendrick blocking the view, Marvin couldn’t see Annabelle’s body, but he knew exactly what was happening inside.Jealousy and anger burned within him, making him unable to endure any longer. Clenching his fists, he turned and left the little garden.Marvin didn’t

Kendrick's voice had become somewhat sour, and Annabelle responded, "I don’t distrust you...""Then listen to me," he said softly, pulling her into his embrace from behind.Just moments ago, he had almost let slip the name of Ryan. He and Ryan had reached an agreement—temporarily keeping from Annabelle the fact that her Master was actually Ryan. Otherwise, Ryan might tell her about Emilia’s existence.Kendrick wasn’t ready to explain this to her yet. He was afraid she would overthink it, and he hadn’t fully handled the situation himself.Annabelle remained lost in thought, still looking troubled."What are you thinking about?" Kendrick asked."I was thinking about when I’ll get better," Annabelle sighed, feeling frustrated. Every time she thought about her weak body and the poison inside her, things she couldn’t do, it made her feel miserable.Kendrick smiled lightly. "Don’t worry. I was just about to tell you."He took out his phone, logged into the health check center, and showed he

At that time, Kendrick must have been very angry and sad. His stepmother had been clearing out his mother’s belongings, not even sparing a few flower pots. She dared to do that, which must have been tacitly approved by Colten.Fortunately, Trey had been there for him, giving him comfort and encouragement. This was probably why Kendrick had always been so close to Trey.After a while, Kendrick smiled and gently rubbed the top of her head. “It’s alright. I’m fine.”Annabelle replied with a soft "Oh..." But she noticed his eyes were red, and she really wanted to comfort him by patting his head."Many people think the epiphyllum has bad connotations. When Lydia threw the epiphyllums away, she said that the flowers were unlucky. Even Father agreed. So why do you like them so much, Anna?"Annabelle pursed her lips and replied, "There’s no such thing as good or bad plants. What people call lucky or unlucky is just something they’ve attached to them. In fact, the phrase 'like an epiphyllum' h

Kendrick was taken aback at first, not understanding why she kissed him, but when he saw the playful glint in her eyes, he quickly figured out her thoughts. Smiling, he pinched her cheek."Anna, you’ve always cared about Ariana, haven’t you?""I don’t!" Annabelle turned her head proudly, pretending to admire the flowers.Kendrick chuckled and gently turned her back around. "Alright, whatever happens between her and Cael doesn’t concern us. We don’t need to worry about it."Kendrick understood that ever since their first meeting, when Annabelle suggested he let the grass pot Ariana gave him overgrow instead of regularly cleaning it, he had known that she was uneasy about his relationship with Ariana.Later, when they went golfing together and Ariana fainted in his arms, Annabelle had clearly been upset.Perhaps from that moment on, Annabelle had sensed something more from Ariana, a kind of hidden intention.But Kendrick hadn’t been perceptive enough to see Ariana’s affection for him, n
