2024-12-22 18:01:11"I was asking if you could take a shower by yourself!"
"Hard to say," Kendrick chuckled wickedly.
After all the struggle, Annabelle had become exhausted and gave up resisting. Since her clothes were already wet, she decided to sit down on the ground with her back turned towards him.
"Fine, I won't leave. If you're not embarrassed, just wash like this." It saves you from actually drowning in the bathtub, and in the end, she'll have to take the blame.
Mr. Gregory was not shy, and he was in a good mood. He considerately grabbed a clean towel and handed it to her, saying, "Put this under you, the marble is cold."
"I thanked you," Annabelle gritted her teeth and said as she took the towel.
In that moment, Annabelle really doubted that she must have owed him in her past life, otherwise why would God arrange for him to be by her side and torment her like this.
Mr. Gregory succeeded and finally took a quiet bath.
Actually, he didn't kn

Annabelle wanted to chase after, but she only wore a small underwear. She didn't dare to run out directly, as it was a bustling shopping mall!She had to call the salesperson and said that someone had just stolen her clothes, please go and retrieve them quickly.The salesperson became nervous when he heard this, "Is it the woman wearing black clothes and a black mask?""Yes, that's it, hurry up and go!"Afterwards, the shopping guide also hurriedly left. However, the mall was so big and crowded, so the black-clothed person twisted and turned, finally arriving at the mall's basement parking lot.She walked up to a white Porsche, pulled open the passenger door, and got into the car."Ms. Pratt, it's done.""Where are the clothes?"Gemma wore sunglasses and glanced at the person in the passenger seat.The woman raised her hand and looked at it.Gemma smirked and said, "Throw it away later, it's useless."After

The fire in the shopping mall was not serious, it only produced a large amount of thick smoke, so it was quickly brought under control in a short period of time.Annabelle, on the other hand, fainted due to excessive fright, so she went to the hospital to get her body checked. Kendrick then took her back home, as there was no problem found during the examination. Besides, even if they went back home, they had a private doctor available on call.Annabelle was settled in the bedroom when Kendrick's phone also rang, it was assistant Jaime calling."President, it has been determined that Madam's clothes were taken by Gemma's assistant, and the fire was an unforeseen incident."Kendrick's face was gloomy. It had been several hours since he brought Annabelle back, but the thought of her being alone in the fitting room still made him both scared and worried.After a brief pause, Kendrick said coldly, "Gemma, ban.""Yes."In the evening, Kend

Thinking about the person she called "young master," Kendrick's expression darkened, but it quickly disappeared.He tapped her forehead and said, "You heartless little thing, I braved thick smoke and flames to rush into the mall, almost died inside, and finally rescued you. And you have already forgotten."The smoke was real, the big fire was not, but it didn't matter anyway, because Mr. Gregory was determined to take credit at that moment.Annabelle was feeling a bit flustered at the moment because when she mentioned being trapped in the fitting room, she remembered that she was only wearing a set of underwear at that time...She quietly pulled back the covers and glanced at herself, put on a nightgown, but...She wore only a nightgown!It seemed like he guessed her thoughts, Kendrick chuckled softly, "When I took you to the hospital, I made you wear my coat. When we came back, I helped you clean the stains on your body and also changed you

"President... President, are you saying that all people called 'Young Master'?"As an assistant, Jaime had indeed helped Kendrick investigate various matters, but it was the first time he had to investigate all the "young masters" of Elfhedge, and he was completely clueless about it."Yes, find out all the people who are called young master or have names that sound similar to young master. Then investigate if any of them might know Annabelle."Although Jaime didn't know exactly what had happened, Boss's instructions were already very clear. Despite the immense difficulty, the purpose of his existence was to help Boss solve various troubles and difficulties."Yes, President, I will go and check right away."After hanging up the phone, Kendrick took another deep look at the photo taken in the morning.Annabelle nestled trustingly in his arms, not because she trusted him.He treated her as if she were another man.What was her rel

After listening, Kendrick hesitated for a moment and said, "I happen to know a classical guitar master who can come to our house and teach you."Annabelle, however, quickly shook her head and said, "No need, I want to go to school to study."Annabelle had a longing for college, where she could also attend other courses such as literature and history.Kendrick sighed in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't stop it.Actually, it would be great if she could stay and go to school. Kendrick has been worried lately, afraid that she would have nothing to do and feel lonely staying at home, constantly wanting to go out.Just his beautiful little wife, once she went to school, he could imagine how many boys coveted her.They were all around the same age as Annabelle and were also studying art, perhaps even more so than him and her, they might have had more topics to talk about.Thinking about all this, Kendrick felt very uncomfortable.

Annabelle stared wide-eyed in terror, as she was dressed scantily and could clearly feel Kendrick's scorching and rigid body.She immediately pushed his chest with force, but couldn't move him, so she opened her mouth and bit his lip.Kendrick felt a slight tingling at the corner of his lips. Although he wanted to continue, he also understood the principle of stopping while ahead. He then released her body and smiled, saying, "This is a token of gratitude."Annabelle's face turned red, feeling embarrassed and not knowing how to deal with this rascal, she turned around and ran out of the study.Watching her running out with her skirt fluttering, Kendrick couldn't help but laugh. He was on fire, and it took a long time for it to extinguish.After leaving the study, Annabelle's mood remained unsettled for a long time.Her mind was filled with the scenes of being kissed by him, and her whole body was filled with his scent. This disturbed feeling

Annabelle was not angry either, she sat down on the chair next to him and teased him, saying, "Be careful, if you cry wolf too many times, it won't work anymore."Fabian smiled and sat up straight."How have you been lately? Are you still adjusting well to life in the Gregory family?"Did Annabelle get used to the situation of being hugged and kissed by Kendrick in the morning?I don't know if life is adaptable or not, but anyway, Kendrick's rogue behavior seems to have become a norm.Thinking about this, Annabelle sighed."Did he bully you?"Annabelle shook her head, "No."She knew Fabian's personality, and if he found out that Kendrick was always taking advantage of her from time to time, Fabian was likely to go directly to Kendrick to settle the score."By the way, can you help me take a look at this dress? Can it be repaired?" Annabelle took out a little dress and handed it to Fabian, while changing the subject.

Annabelle blinked her eyes and smiled, "So, your fans won't eat me, right?""To be honest," Fabian said earnestly, "if you still need a marriage to protect you by then, I am willing to provide you with this safe haven."Annabelle understood the meaning of this sentence, which was that if she still needed to fake a marriage with someone in the future, she didn't have to look for Kendrick anymore, she could just go directly to Fabian.So she raised her eyebrows and said with a relaxed tone, "Alright, I will come to you then. It seems that I don't have to worry about anything anymore!""If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have to make this agreement with Kendrick now," Fabian said, lightly tapping her forehead, "making you impulsive."Annabelle stuck out her tongue, she was indeed too eager and got carried away at the engagement banquet.However, even if she had been given the chance to think it over calmly again, she would never have cons

Annabelle shot him a glare. She wasn’t looking for any signs of another woman.What she noticed was Kendrick’s pale complexion and the sweat beading on his forehead — it didn’t seem like sweat from heat. More importantly, he carried the distinct scent of medicine and blood."Let me see your wound."She tossed the towel aside, quickly twisting her damp hair up, already preparing to check his injury."I’m fine," Kendrick said. "Jax’s injuries are worse. The smell is just from tending to his wounds."Annabelle reached out, touching his forehead. It was slightly warm, but not burning. She then held his wrist, carefully checking his pulse."Your pulse is weak. It feels like your body has been affected by cold and your blood flow is compromised. It seems..."She frowned, staring at him. "Just how much blood did you lose last night?"Kendrick blinked, inwardly sighing. Marrying a little doctor really did mean there was no hiding anything."Not much. Don’t worry so much."Annabelle pursed her
I wish it were you Chapter 699 Does Anna Want a Lollipop?
Kendrick suddenly remembered something. On his way through the city, he'd passed a candy store. Thinking of the "little one" at home, he bought a lollipop and tucked it into his pocket.Now, to distract Anna, he took out the lollipop.The moment Annabelle saw it, her face paled.It was exactly like her dream!In that unsettling dream from the morning, Kendrick had also brought back a lollipop. But it had fallen to the ground, turning into a pool of blood. She had woken up in terror.Could she still be dreaming? Was Kendrick not actually back yet?"This isn’t real. I don't want it!"Kendrick, his thoughts wandering in a more playful direction, was a little caught off guard by her reaction. When Anna demanded a real lollipop earlier, his heart had already started racing.He set the glass of water aside, pulled her into his arms, and asked in a low, hoarse voice, "Are you sure about that?"At this moment, the pain from his wound was forgotten, and even the bleeding didn't seem to matter.

Annabelle frowned at him. "You weren’t testing me on purpose, were you?"Kendrick smiled faintly, neither admitting nor denying it."You really were testing me!" Annabelle raised her hand, ready to punch him again.He quickly caught her fist.In the past, a playful hit from her was like a tickle, but now he couldn’t take it. Even the simple act of grabbing her hand was already a struggle."Let’s go back to the room and talk," he suggested.Indeed, the danger had passed that morning, and he could have called Annabelle to reassure her. But he chose not to. He wanted her to understand that during tense moments, the most important thing was to remain calm and patient, never losing composure.The more challenges she faced, the more capable she would become when confronted with even tougher problems in the future.That way, even if one day, for whatever reason, he couldn’t manage the company, she would stand as the steadfast lady of the house, ensuring the company wouldn’t fall into chaos.

This time, the distance was much closer, and Annabelle could see clearly. On the small boat was a round, stout man steering it.It seemed to be the same boat she had glimpsed earlier from afar. So, had it brought someone over? Could it really be Kendrick?Her heart pounded wildly.Afraid of disappointment, Annabelle didn't dare let herself feel too much hope.Her entire body tensed as she hurried aboard the yacht. She immediately grabbed a crew member and asked where the person from the boat had gone.The crew member pointed to the upper deck.Without another word, Annabelle rushed toward the deck, not even daring to ask if it was truly Kendrick.Barefoot, she ran through the long corridor. The reflective glass along the hallway showed her disheveled reflection. Her wet hair clung to her face, a bath towel draped over her shoulders, and her mermaid dress, still damp, clung uncomfortably to her body. But she didn’t care.All she could think about was reaching the upper deck.Finally, s
I wish it were you Chapter 696 The Scene with Him
Everything turned out to be much simpler than expected.As Annabelle plunged into the sea, the warmth of the water enveloped her. She felt as if the ocean itself was healing and soothing her, as though it was where she truly belonged.It seemed like she could hear a distant, ancient voice. The language was unfamiliar, but its tone conveyed deep, comforting affection.When Annabelle surfaced, her heart was calm and resolute. She glanced at the horizon and, for a fleeting moment, thought she saw a white boat approaching.Standing at the bow of the boat was a figure that resembled Kendrick.But before she could focus, the churning waves obscured her view. She dismissed it as an illusion. The distance was too far to see anyone clearly, yet her mind had conjured the image of Kendrick.Afterward, Annabelle climbed into the lifeboat. Gauge immediately draped a towel over her shoulders.“That was a perfect dive,” Gauge praised.Annabelle gave him a faint smile. “Your turn next.”“Mine’s much
I wish it were you Chapter 695 Preparing for the Worst
Annabelle wanted to find Kendrick, but on this unfamiliar island, she had no friends or anyone she could turn to for help. She didn't even know where to start looking.As for contacting the police, she decided against it for now.Since that mysterious Mr. Whitney dared to make a move against Kendrick, he certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to get caught by the authorities. Furthermore, if the police got involved, the news of Kendrick's disappearance would quickly spread back to China.This would deal a significant blow to the Gregory Group, which might be exactly what the the Whitney Group wanted.Unless she had no other choice or no leads at all, Annabelle wasn’t planning to call the police.If all else failed, she could return to China and track down Mr. Whitney herself. The the Whitney Group was well-known, and finding him wouldn’t be difficult. Once she located him, she might be able to uncover information about Kendrick.After thinking it through, Annabelle said to Gauge, “Let’s

Whatever tomorrow might bring, whether storm or sunshine, she would remain steadfast.Until she received news of Kendrick, she would hold herself together and wait for his return.Just as Gauge said, since she chose him, she must become strong and calm.In the second game, Annabelle cleared her mind of distractions and focused on the chessboard.Gauge, however, grew increasingly distracted. The things Annabelle had shared with him tonight weighed heavily on his mind.He couldn't stop worrying about her future, wondering if there was still a chance for him to become a part of her life—to become her other half.As a result, he played terribly. Despite his usually superior skills, he lost to Annabelle.After her unexpected victory, Annabelle felt a shift in her mindset.She turned to Gauge and said, "We have filming tomorrow. I’m going to get some rest now. You should try to get some sleep too.""Alright."Annabelle brought him a thin blanket and a new pillow before returning to the inne
I wish it were you Chapter 693 Since She Chose Him
Annabelle wanted badly to call Jax, but she hesitated.What if the situation on his side was critical? Calling him might only cause trouble."Kendrick is no ordinary man. Ordinary crises can't defeat him. You have to trust him," Gauge said, clearing his throat awkwardly.Annabelle was taken aback. It was rare to hear Gauge speak so positively about Kendrick. The two of them had always seemed to hold a low opinion of each other."I hope so too. But we’re not in our country, and Kendrick has no one by his side. It makes me uneasy."Even when they were in their own country, Kendrick had faced numerous life-threatening situations, all orchestrated by that enigmatic figure, Mr. Whitney.However, Mr. Whitney had hesitated and missed several opportunities.Kendrick once said it was because Mr. Whitney liked her and couldn't bear to scare her.Annabelle always assumed that was just something Kendrick said to comfort her. She didn't even know Mr. Whitney, so the claim sounded absurd.But what
I wish it were you Chapter 692 The Missed Path That Can't Be Returned
How should Annabelle answer Gauge?In the past, Annabelle always thought that her marriage to Kendrick was a mere formality. They agreed to divorce after their collaboration ended, keeping their arrangement a secret to avoid damaging Kendrick’s reputation. It was an agreement they both accepted.But now, after half a year, everything had changed.What was once a formal marriage was no longer just that. They had truly become husband and wife, both physically and emotionally.What she had once hidden from others now seemed like a twist of fate upon reflection."After Marvin called off the engagement, my parents wanted to marry me off to a wealthy old man. That’s when I hastily decided to get engaged to Kendrick," Annabelle said, holding a chess piece with a bitter smile.Thinking back, she really had been like a chess piece herself.Her fate was never in her own hands. She was a pawn manipulated by her family. The moment she lost her usefulness, she would be cast aside.But after marryi
