I wish it were you Chapter 361 Keep It From Her
After Jaime reported on the affairs of the group, he tentatively asked, "President, do you still want to remain unconscious?"Kendrick pondered for a moment and said, "Yes, during this time, pay close attention to the movements of the shareholders. I have also moved the bodyguards outside my ward to a hidden location. Without any instructions, do not take any unauthorized actions."With Marvin joining the group, Kendrick could feel that there were people within the group who had doubts about him. They had probably been looking for an opportunity to help Marvin rise to power.His coma was a good opportunity for Marvin, those people would definitely help Marvin.So, Kendrick decided to pretend to be in a coma, taking the opportunity to test and see who would betray him or even plot to harm him as soon as he became unconscious.So they simply opened the door wide and waited to see who would come."Yes, is that Mrs. Gregory speaking?"Kendrick rubbed his forehead; he actually didn't want

Kendrick couldn't help but feel a little surprised and a little delighted after hearing Annabelle's words.I used to be cold and indifferent towards him, always finding fault with him. But it turns out that I cared about him so much in my heart, and he was also quite clingy.The nurse sister said that she would go and ask the head nurse. Annabelle nodded, thinking that indeed the approval of the head nurse was necessary for this matter.After a while, the head nurse arrived.She was a woman in her thirties, showing respect towards Annabelle. However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she said, "Mrs. Gregory, this might not be very convenient."Lying in the hospital bed, Kendrick almost couldn't continue acting and was about to sit up directly.His wife was coming to accompany him in bed, why was it suddenly inconvenient?Is this really the hospital he funded? How can these people not even have the most basic human care for him?However, before Kendrick could make a move, Annabelle spok

Lydia on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, "I can't wait anymore, let's do it tonight, you help me coordinate.""Did you want to come in person?""Well, all you need to do is follow my instructions and help me keep everyone who is taking care of Kendrick away. Can you do that?""Sure, recently all the bodyguards outside the ward were withdrawn. I will help you distract the staff."The diligent head nurse, who always knew the consequences of doing so and the risks she had to take, decided to go above and beyond for Lydia, her old friend who had once saved her child's life. She was determined to repay this kindness, no matter the cost."Okay. After the lights were turned off, I went upstairs and walked up the stairs of the emergency exit, directly to the ward."After hanging up the phone, Lydia was still feeling a bit excited.She was the mistress turned wife, never welcomed in the Gregory family, and her son was also looked down upon. She endured for so many years, nev

Although Annabelle had prepared herself mentally, she couldn't help but blush and feel extremely embarrassed when she took the initiative to hug him."Don't misunderstand, I was just too cold. And I came to find you mainly to protect you, after all, the person who harmed you hasn't been caught yet..."Kendrick listened to her murmuring in the darkness, and a smile crept onto his lips as he longed to reach out and embrace her in his arms.Later, Annabelle remembered what Jaime had said, that if she talked more, it might help him wake up.What should I say then?What can I say to stimulate him?Annabelle was still not used to Kendrick being so talkative, but since he was unconscious, she figured he wouldn't hear anything she said. And even if he did hear, as long as she didn't admit it when he woke up, it would be fine.So Annabelle cleared her throat and said, "Today Marvin came to see me. I used to think he was arrogant and rude, quite annoying, but recently I've realized he's not tha

Absolutely right.So don't go with him!Kendrick was about to blurt it out.After Annabelle finished speaking, she picked up Kendrick's wrist and examined it again, sighing.I really don't know why he hasn't woken up yet, his condition was clearly getting better and better.Annabelle felt sleepy, yawned, and then fell into a deep sleep.Kendrick opened his eyes only after Annabelle had fallen completely asleep. He gently turned to the side and placed his arm around her waist, embracing her softly. Then, he lightly kissed her on the face.Kendrick didn't want to immediately return to lying flat, so he stayed on his side, using the moonlight outside the window to look at the woman next to him.I helped her tidy up her hair and really wanted to ask her why she didn't hesitate at all when she blocked that bullet for him.Why did you come to his ward before your body had recovered, and even risked climbing over the balcony to get here?Although Kendrick had already guessed her heart, he st

Annabelle was still nervous and couldn't care less about condemning Kendrick for pretending to be unconscious. She anxiously asked, "Who was the person who just came? What does she want?""She was a nurse, doing her rounds."Actually, Kendrick realized that the person who came was Lydia, which was pretty much what he had expected.He had also suspected before that Lydia wanted to harm him.A few months ago, someone poisoned the water dispenser in his office. Later, Jax found out through investigation that the worker who replaced the filter for the water dispenser had met a woman before. The woman was wearing a mask and sunglasses, sitting in a car, and was captured by a street surveillance camera. Although the video was blurry, Lydia's distinctive figure could be seen.But at that time, Kendrick didn't believe that Lydia would actually kill him.He thought that this woman only knew how to use some petty tricks.In hindsight, he underestimated Lydia.But Kendrick didn't want to tell An

Annabelle lowered her eyelids, withdrew her body, and distanced herself from him, like an insecure little creature, longing for warmth but fearing closeness.Kendrick didn't pressure her, he just waited quietly for her answer.What kind of care did she have for him, whether it was the kind of care for a friend or for a boyfriend?After a moment of silence, Annabelle took a deep breath and called out to him in a low voice, "Kendrick.""Um.""I have never been in love and I don't know how it feels for a man and a woman to be in love. All I know is that when I heard that you were seriously injured, I just wanted to rush to save you. Even if it meant jumping from the upstairs and breaking my legs, I still wanted to save you.""I was afraid that the enemy would come to harm you again, so I climbed over the balcony to come over and wanted to protect you, even though my legs were still weak...""Also, Jaime said that there was a possibility that you might never wake up again, and I was truly

"I... I didn't know..."Annabelle was nervous, after all, she had never experienced this before.Kendrick gently kissed and comforted her.Annabelle's head was completely messed up, her soul seemed to have grown wings and flew to the sky, dancing joyfully. Everywhere there were pink clouds, and all around was her unique aura.When she felt a chill on her body, she realized that her top had already been taken off by him, and his kisses were igniting her body.Annabelle became even more flustered.She also had many worries about the future.About him as a whole person, she still had a lot to learn.But how could she push him away? She felt her hands were weak and powerless, as if she couldn't help but want to walk into the abyss ahead, no matter how deep it was.Kendrick lifted Annabelle to higher clouds with his kiss. Annabelle held onto his shoulders and opened her foggy eyes."Kendrick.""Um.""You are not allowed to bully me in the future," she said, her voice trembling slightly, ev

Seeing who it was, Scott pressed his lips together in mild disinterest.“What is it?” He glanced at his younger brother, Julian.Julian smirked. “Figured you weren’t asleep yet. I couldn’t sleep either, so I thought I’d come have a smoke with you.”As he spoke, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes, handed one to his brother, then flicked open a lighter, lighting Scott’s cigarette before lighting his own. He took a slow drag.“Why did Julissa leave?”“Mm.”Scott’s posture was lazy, making it clear he had no intention of explaining.“Bro, are you serious? Still haven’t gotten the girl?”Scott frowned. “Did you come here just to talk nonsense?”“I told Mom and Dad that you’re dating.” Julian flicked off some ash with a grin.“I planned on telling them after getting the marriage certificate. You sure are quick to run your mouth.”Scott’s gaze was distant as he looked out the window.Back then, no matter how much he pleaded or tried to convince them otherwise, his parents had been determined

Julissa twitched the corner of her mouth. “Thanks, I guess.”It wasn’t like she had fought off some wild beast—just caught a cockroach. Did that really count as brave?Then she glanced at Yvette, who still looked pale and shaken. Suddenly, Julissa felt like a tomboy.She hadn’t been raised as a delicate, pampered lady and didn’t quite understand the refined way some women viewed the natural world.To her, she had simply disposed of a bug. If cockroaches weren’t such notorious pests with insane reproductive abilities, she might have even let it go.“How about we switch you to another room?” Scott suggested.Yvette hesitated before asking, “If a room hasn’t been used for a long time, isn’t it more likely to have cockroaches?”Julissa pressed her lips together. Oh, so what now? You want to stay in my boyfriend’s room? His is occupied often—probably no cockroaches there.Scott glanced at Julian, as if suggesting his younger brother switch rooms with Yvette.Julian looked troubled. “Bro, m
I wish it were you Chapter 858 Pretty Brave
Julissa was completely under Scott’s control. She wavered, forgetting all of her mother’s warnings and her own principles.At some point, her dress had been pushed up to her waist, and her shoulder straps had slipped down her arms.The cool air on her exposed skin made her shiver, but the heat from Scott’s body pressed against hers made her burn. Just as she was about to give in entirely, a woman’s sharp scream pierced through the night.Both she and Scott froze, instinctively turning their heads toward the door.Scott let out a long sigh, clearly trying to rein himself in.Finally, he placed a gentle kiss on her cheek before getting out of bed.“I’ll go check.”He walked to the wardrobe, pulled out a fresh set of pajamas, and put them on quickly. As he reached the bedroom door, he turned back to ask the still-dazed Julissa, “Do you want to come with me?”Her senses snapped back into place. She hurriedly pulled her fallen shoulder straps back up and straightened her dress before noddi
I wish it were you Chapter 857 I'm Afraid of You
Julissa closed her eyes for a moment. Even though she had expected this outcome, her heart still felt heavy.She steadied her emotions and continued asking, “Then… do you have a lot of experience?”Scott didn't know how to respond. Should he tell her that, at almost thirty, he had only ever been with one person—and that person was her?If she found out that, before they even knew each other, he had taken her to a hotel when she was drunk… Even though she had been very willing at the time, she had still been intoxicated. It could be considered taking advantage of her…What would she think of him if she knew? Would she see him as frivolous, reckless, even a bit predatory?Even if he explained that he hadn't known what came over him that night, that he had been utterly captivated by her and had been searching for her ever since—would she believe him?With a quiet sigh, he decided that no matter what, he hadn't handled that situation well. He didn't want to bring it up.“My experience is…
I wish it were you Chapter 856 Been There
Scott was momentarily stunned, then chuckled. “So you were bothered by this?”“Why?”Seeing how determined she was to know, Scott decided to explain.“The pajamas Yvette wore were actually meant for you. The last time you got drunk and stayed over, there weren’t any suitable pajamas for you, so I thought I’d get you a couple of sets.”“You thought I would come back then?”Scott smiled slightly. “I figured you’d come to me sooner or later.”Julissa couldn’t help but feel her heart flutter at his confident and possessive words.But she quickly refocused on the main issue.“If they were meant for me, why did Yvette wear them?”Scott shrugged. “It was Julian who gave them to her. She came to Elfhedge in a hurry and forgot to pack pajamas.”This explanation eased Julissa’s mind a little.However, the clothes originally meant for her had ended up on another woman, so Scott shouldn’t be wearing the same set of pajamas.“You should take your clothes off,” Julissa said, her voice a little ster
I wish it were you Chapter 855 He Seems Pretty Innocent
Scott stood by the bed, dimming the bedside lamp before sitting down. He didn’t look at her, as if his earlier request was the most natural thing in the world.Julissa felt like she had been put under a spell. She obediently walked over with the blanket in her arms, placed it on a nearby chair, and sat on the edge of the bed, feeling incredibly restrained.A sudden realization hit her—wasn’t she just delivering herself straight into the big bad wolf’s den?Scott, however, didn’t do anything inappropriate. He simply scooted to the other side of the bed, making room for her, then lifted the blanket and patted the mattress.“Put your legs in.”“M… Mr. Nichols…” Julissa’s voice trembled as she stared at him, feeling so nervous she could cry.Wasn’t this just her voluntarily crawling into his bed?!Scott glanced at her bare legs and chuckled. “I’m just worried you’re cold.”She was wearing a nightdress, and she was feeling chilly.But the real question was—if she got into his bed, could sh
I wish it were you Chapter 854 The Prey Walks Right In
The thought that Scott might be a seasoned flirt—that everything he had said and done to her, he had also done to other women—made Julissa’s heart sink. She lowered her head, feeling a pang of sourness in her chest.But it was already late. She didn’t dwell on it any longer, quickly drying her hair before getting into bed.No matter what, the sun would still rise tomorrow. She had work, she needed to earn money to support herself, and she had to find a new place and move out…With so much to do the next day, she forced herself to stop overthinking and shut her eyes, willing herself to sleep.However, after lying there for a while, not only did sleep evade her, but she became more awake—because it was just too cold.The blanket she had was way too thin. It was basically a summer quilt!The weather wasn’t warm enough for something this light. Did Scott not have common sense? Was he bad at taking care of people? Or… did he do this on purpose?She tried to endure it, but the cold seeped t
I wish it were you Chapter 853 Who’s Flirting with Who?
Scott responded casually, “So? Do you need me to carry you out again?”Julissa’s face heated up. Sometimes, Mr. Nichols is really so… improper.This also confirmed one thing—this guy was definitely the reserved-but-secretly-wild type, and his desire seemed very strong.How do you deal with a man like that? Simple—flirt with him, tease him, but never let him have his way! lol…The corners of Julissa’s mouth curled into a mischievous smile. She was starting to feel more like a seductive villainess.She cleared her throat and said, “That’s not what I meant. I just wanted you to hand me my clothes.”As soon as she finished speaking, Scott pushed open the door and entered, holding a set of her sleepwear.Julissa had already hidden herself beneath the water, only her delicate collarbones visible above the surface—one of her proudest features.She pointed to the chair beside her and, blushing, said, “Mr. Nichols, just leave them there.”But instead of placing the clothes down, Scott caught h
I wish it were you Chapter 852 A Woman’s Intuition
“That’s enough, Mr. Nichols,” she interrupted him. “I don’t need all those complicated settings.”“Alright, then. You go ahead and wash up. Call me if you need anything.”Julissa nodded silently. If something went wrong halfway through her bath, could she actually call him in?Some rather colorful images flashed through her mind—doing this and that in the bathroom…She quickly shook her head, feeling like she was beyond saving.Scott didn’t say anything more and turned to leave the bathroom.Suddenly, a thought struck Julissa, and she quickly called after him. “Mr. Nichols, my luggage is still downstairs!”“I’ll go get it now. You just take your bath.”“The main thing is… my change of clothes is in my suitcase…”Scott paused for a moment. “I’ll bring it up for you.”Julissa wanted to ask him, How do you even know what I’ll wear? But before she could, he had already left the bathroom. She decided not to overthink it and just let him handle it.Once the bathtub was filled, Julissa slipp
