Kendrick smiled. "My stance hasn’t changed. He can come back to the company, but if he tries anything shady, he won’t get away with it."After the company’s restructuring, Marvin wouldn’t be able to threaten his position in the short term, and pulling any dirty tricks would be hard. No matter what, he wasn’t going to close his eyes to Marvin’s actions again."You really went hard on him last time. He and his mother must hate you even more now."Kendrick’s face turned cold. Scott was referring to when Marvin had been set up with the "duck" incident and the media exposed his love for men.Kendrick’s expression darkened. "When he started developing feelings for Anna, he should’ve known how I’d react. That incident was just a small lesson. If he does anything else…"He didn’t continue, but Scott nodded silently. He understood Kendrick’s approach—those scandals had been the lightest punishment Marvin could get."Speaking of which, why did you suddenly bring Julissa here? Finally interested

"Silly girl," Briley said with a smile, adjusting her niece’s crooked earring. "I know Anna. With her temperament, your brother-in-law will surely grow tired of her sooner or later. When that happens, both the Sanchez family and the Castillo family will need you."Lila’s vanity inflated at her aunt’s words."Okay, Aunt, I will definitely try my best!"Briley smiled faintly. "Good, that’s the right attitude."Looking at her niece’s enthusiastic expression, she felt reassured.For the sake of the Sanchez and Castillo families? No. She simply didn’t want Annabelle to be this happy.When she had arranged the marriage between the Sanchez and Gregory families, it was to save the Sanchez Corporation, and because she knew that Annabelle, with her past and her disfigurement, would never be favored in the Gregory family. She would live like a neglected concubine—alone for life.But she hadn’t expected that Annabelle’s appearance had already fully recovered, and Kendrick treated her so well afte

Annabelle shook her head, feeling a bit distracted. The man from earlier—she didn’t recognize him, yet something about him seemed familiar. Where had she seen him before?“Why still looking?” Kendrick lightly tapped her forehead, pulling her attention back.Annabelle rubbed her forehead, about to explain herself, when she heard someone call her name. Turning around, she saw her father walking over.Gavyn’s face was beaming with a nervous yet excited expression, as though a small player had entered the big league. He approached them and said to Kendrick, “I only got the chance to attend this banquet because of you, Kendrick. If it weren’t for you, Mr.Duncan would never have invited me. Now that I’m here, my business partners are looking at me differently. I really need to thank you.”Kendrick smiled lightly, “It’s no big deal, just a small favor.”Annabelle was surprised. So, it was Kendrick who had helped her father attend the event. She also noticed her father was intentionally flatt

Lila nervously clasped her hands together, her eyelashes trembling with anxiety. Annabelle narrowed her eyes. She wasn’t sure if the girl was just too young to hide her emotions or if she was deliberately putting on this innocent, straightforward act—wearing her heart on her sleeve, boldly declaring her affections. As long as Kendrick wasn’t a fool, he’d understand that this girl, who wasn’t even twenty yet, would fall into his arms with just the crook of a finger. Kendrick didn’t look at Annabelle. Instead, he lightly wrapped an arm around her waist, giving it a gentle squeeze—perhaps as reassurance, or maybe just teasing her for being a little jealous. Then, he turned to Lila and said a simple, polite but distant, “Thank you.” At that moment, the band began playing the first dance. Lila took a step forward and asked, “Sister, can I invite my brother-in-law for a dance? You wouldn’t mind, would you?” Annabelle felt uncomfortable. She wanted to say she *did* mind, but th

Annabelle lifted her gaze, thinking about Kendrick's actions earlier, which had made her feel more at ease. Seizing the opportunity when the dance slowed down, she hooked her arm around his neck and boldly kissed his cheek.Annabelle had never been so forward in public before, and the sudden act made her feel a bit uncomfortable. Her face turned a deep shade of red, and she quickly looked away, slightly embarrassed.Kendrick watched her with a deep, amused gaze. "Anna, how about we go upstairs now?" he teased.Annabelle, realizing he was joking, replied with a playful huff, "Dream on.""Ouch," Kendrick said, feigning hurt, "Anna, your attitude toward me is getting worse and worse, huh?"He pinched the soft spot on her waist, making her squirm and nearly lose her composure."Stop it!" she protested, laughing.Kendrick grinned and whispered in her ear, "I'll make you pay for this later."When the dance ended, Kendrick led Annabelle to the side to rest."I'm going to meet Mr.Duncan in a

Ryan glanced at Seraphina, his tone softening a little. "We’ll talk about it later. It's fine."Seraphina nodded and silently stepped back.Annabelle followed Kendrick into the reception room where Mr.Duncan was waiting.Mr.Duncan was dressed in a brown-red Tang suit, his hair slightly graying, but his face was rosy, and his voice boomed with authority, giving off a very dignified air.A woman in a white wrap-around dress was sitting opposite Mr.Duncan on the sofa. She had an elegant aura and a bright, cheerful laugh.When Annabelle and Kendrick entered, the woman was discussing a piece of porcelain on the coffee table with Mr.Duncan. It appeared to be a gift someone had just brought.As soon as Mr.Duncan saw Kendrick and Annabelle, he immediately smiled and greeted them, "Come, come, Kendrick, Annabelle, come sit."Annabelle was surprised that Mr.Duncan remembered her name so clearly, so she and Kendrick exchanged greetings with the elderly gentleman.Mr.Duncan smiled and nodded, giv

Mr. Duncan exchanged a glance with his daughter, Eleanor, who smiled and patted her father's knee, as if to tell him not to rush.Eleanor turned to Annabelle and said, "Earlier, my father and I were discussing this piece. I said it was a antique vase, but the old man insisted it was a antique wine vessel. I wonder what you think, Annabelle?"After carefully examining the vase, Annabelle smiled and said, "Actually, both of you are correct in some ways, but when it comes to the era of the vase, I lean more toward Miss Duncan's opinion."Mr. Duncan took a sip of tea and chuckled, "Please, Annabelle, go on.""This is a prunus vase, which could be used both as a wine vessel or as a flower vase. It first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, becoming popular during the Song and Liao periods. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was mostly used as a decorative item in imperial courts. In terms of shape and lines, the Ming Dynasty prunus vases are fuller and more robust, giving a sense of strength and

Since Eleanor had spoken, Kendrick didn’t say much more. He gently stroked Annabelle’s back and said, “Learn from Mr. Duncan more often. He’s an expert in calligraphy and painting.”“Got it,” Annabelle beamed at him. “You two go ahead.”With that, Kendrick left with Eleanor.Watching the two walk away, Annabelle couldn’t help but feel a little sour inside. But soon, she shifted her focus back to discussing paintings with Mr. Duncan. As they immersed themselves in the details of the artwork, a sense of mutual understanding blossomed between them—like finding a kindred spirit.As they conversed, a young man's voice rang out from outside the lounge.“What’s the topic? Sounds lively. Why wasn’t I invited?”The voice sounded somewhat familiar. Annabelle turned toward the entrance and saw a young man strolling in. He was dressed in a deep blue casual suit, his features sharp and refined, his posture upright yet relaxed. His nonchalant smirk carried an air of mystery, making it hard to gauge

“I didn’t say I wasn’t willing,” Annabelle replied honestly.If Kendrick had asked her this question two months ago, she would’ve said no—without even thinking.Because having a child meant one more bond, one more tie.Back then, she couldn’t even picture a clean break if they ever parted ways.She didn’t believe in their long-term future—not really.Of course, even now, she wasn’t entirely sure.But at least now, she was willing to try.So she no longer held onto the mindset of walking away unscathed.That meant, when it came to the topic of kids, Annabelle wasn’t dodging it anymore.But truthfully—she still wasn’t ready.“I just... I don’t know if I want to be a mom yet,” she said quietly, her voice soft but clear. “And I don’t even know if I’d be good at it.”Her eyes looked up at him, wide and earnest.In the darkness, her eyes sparkled like twin pearls.Kendrick couldn’t help but press a kiss to them.“Don’t be scared,” he murmured. “I’ve never been a dad either. We’ll figure it
I wish it were you Chapter 959 Would You Want to Have a Baby With Me?
“Trey already told me everything,” Grandpa said bluntly. “Anna didn’t even like you at first. You only got her by pestering her non-stop. Even made her show off your so-called love in front of the press and promise she’d never divorce you.”“…”So Uncle Trey’s lips weren’t that sealed after all.Getting called out like that, Kendrick felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head awkwardly.“I did win her over with sincerity, Grandpa. The way you’re telling it, I sound like some sleazy scammer.”Grandpa let out a cold hmph, not exactly denying it.“But I’ll give you this—you’ve got a good eye. Anna’s a solid girl. That’s why I’m in such a rush for you—have a kid sooner, and your lives will settle down more, you get it?”“…Got it.”Grandpa commanded a certain authority at home.No matter how sharp, composed, and cold Kendrick appeared in public, in front of Grandpa, he still had to sit down and listen—no room for rebuttal.But in truth, wanting a child wasn’t about tying Anna down fo
I wish it were you Chapter 958 Playing Dumb
Of course Annabelle knew him well—whenever Kendrick said “I’ll try my best,” it was basically code for I probably won’t do it.She was just about to push the topic further when his phone rang. It was the restaurant calling—They were out of chicken wings. Could they swap them for drumsticks?“One moment,” Kendrick said to the caller, then pulled the phone away slightly and turned to Anna.“Babe, no wings. Drumsticks okay?”Annabelle gave him a helpless, slightly amused nod. She was completely speechless at this point—and had zero energy left to argue with him.Fine. Whatever.Kendrick was swamped with work most of the time anyway.These past few days were probably an exception.Once he got busy again, even if he wanted to be frequent, he wouldn't have the time.So she dropped the subject.Half an hour later, the food arrived.They had dinner, clipped the white cat’s claws, and then Annabelle told Kendrick she wasn’t sleepy yet.If he was tired, he could go to bed first—she was heading
I wish it were you Chapter 957 Food, Love, and All That Comes With It
Kendrick couldn’t help but pull the petite woman into his arms and whisper,“I’ll love you and our baby with everything I’ve got.”Annabelle pushed him away slightly, raising an eyebrow.“We don’t even know if there is a baby yet—you sure talk like it’s already a done deal.”Kendrick chuckled and kissed her forehead gently.How could he tell her that what truly filled his heart with joy wasn’t just the thought of raising a child with her…It was the happiness of being fully accepted by her, completely and unconditionally.While Mr. Gregory was basking in his happiness, Annabelle suddenly remembered something.The Young Master had once warned her not to get pregnant.Because of her health.He had said her body wasn’t in a good enough condition to have a child.But right now, she felt fine.Besides, Kendrick had taken her for a full check-up afterward, and everything had come back normal—except for a little malnutrition...Annabelle closed her eyes.She decided to lock away the Young Ma
I wish it were you Chapter 956 A Signal of Love
When Kendrick said those words, even his breath faltered slightly—something rare for him.This time… it was different.Maybe the urge to reproduce was the most primitive human instinct, something engraved deep into their genes.So just the thought that this time it was for a child made him feel unusually stirred.Annabelle felt it too—but in her case, it came more with anxiety than excitement.Having a baby…To her, it felt like a sacred thing.After all, this was about bringing a whole new life into the world.Just the idea of becoming a mother made it hard for her to adjust.Could I really be a good mom?Once there’s a child, life will completely change… Will I be able to adapt?While her thoughts were still a mess, Kendrick’s sweat was already dripping onto her collarbone, trailing down her chest, soaking the sheets beneath them.Her back was sweaty too, dampening the bed even more.There were still so many things to think about—But in that moment… there wasn’t really time to thin
I wish it were you Chapter 955 Can… This Kind of Thing Be Just Tried Out?
What were the two of them feeling at this moment?One was flustered and conflicted.The other—full of ambition.Anna thought, Grandpa treats me like his own granddaughter. Now that he’s seriously ill and doesn’t have much time left, this is his only wish—how could I bear to refuse?But if she didn’t refuse… did that mean she really had to have a baby?She looked at Kendrick. He was also looking at her.Annabelle could feel her cheeks heating up in an instant.Kendrick’s thoughts were different. Having a baby was something they could take their time with, sure—but now that Grandpa had made it clear, they couldn’t just leave it to fate anymore. It needed to be planned.He hadn’t yet had enough time to enjoy their two-person world.But maybe… adding a little monkey to the mix would make life even more fun?So before Anna could even speak, Kendrick took her hand and turned to Grandpa with resolve:“Don’t worry, Grandpa. We’ll do our best!”The old man nodded in satisfaction, patting his g
I wish it were you Chapter 954 Still Haven’t Held a Great-Grandchild
The old man had been about to scold his eldest grandson—Your wife was hospitalized for poisoning, and you still had the nerve to stay home?!But as he thought about it a bit more, something didn’t add up.His granddaughter-in-law said she’d come into contact with a poisonous plant by the seaside and had only just recovered, arriving at the estate this morning.Meanwhile, Han Ye—this brat—had been moping around at home these past couple of days, burning up with fever, looking totally out of it.Could it be… the two of them had a fight?The old man sipped his tea, glanced at his granddaughter-in-law, then at his grandson.Speaking of which, he thought, these two have been married for over half a year, almost a year now. And still no sign of wanting a child.Was it a lack of emotional foundation? Or were they planning to just play around for a couple more years?Anna was still young, sure—no rush.But Kendrick had just turned 31 after the New Year. How was he not in a hurry?Besides, hav
I wish it were you Chapter 953 What Would He Taste Like?
Kendrick said seriously, “Your stomach’s been empty for two days. If you eat this right away, it might hurt. I’ll have the staff bring up something warm and easy to digest.”As he spoke, he picked up the cordless phone by the bed and made a call downstairs.And while he was at it, he took the strawberries with him.Annabelle followed him off the bed, trying to sneak one from the plate—only to have her hand gently smacked by the sly old fox. Smack.The little bunny puffed up her cheeks and withdrew her hand, sulking.She plopped down on the sofa outside and waited obediently for her meal.Kendrick hung up and sat across from her, leisurely eating the strawberries one by one, clearly enjoying himself.The bunny’s cheeks puffed out more and more, like she was hiding a whole carrot in there.It was rare to see Anna getting this worked up over food. Kendrick felt both amused and a little guilty.Eventually, unable to resist her furious little glare, he relented and offered her one strawber
I wish it were you Chapter 952 I Want Some Too
Kendrick raised an eyebrow, looking down at Marvin from above. "You want to meddle in your brother and sister-in-law's sex life too?"The word “sister-in-law” stung like a needle in Marvin’s chest.He stepped up two stairs until he was eye-level with Kendrick. "Don't get cocky. I’ll make sure Anna sees the real you soon enough."Kendrick gave a mocking laugh. "I'll be waiting."With that, he popped another strawberry into his mouth—this one tasted especially sweet.Meanwhile, Marvin stormed out of the Gregory estate and walked toward the lake. After checking that no one was around, he dialed a number.It took a while for the other end to pick up."What’s going on? Why did you take so long to answer?""Geez, Second Young Master, can you cut me some slack? I’ve had stomach pains all night, didn’t sleep a wink. I’m trying to catch up on sleep now, okay?"Marvin remembered—this unfortunate little reporter was already in the late stages of cancer. He hadn’t known at first, but one day
