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
Kendrick, however, took advantage of the opportunity and invaded the city, seizing the land.Annabelle couldn't stand such kisses, pushing Kendrick away with her hand while making a "wuwu" sound involuntarily.This also made him unable to help but think of the situation where she embraced that man.Annabelle bit his lip, and a sudden taste of blood filled her mouth.Kendrick felt a slight pain on his lips, hesitated for a moment, but did not let go.On the contrary, his kiss became more intense.Annabelle was picked up by him and taken directly to the sofa in the living room...Until this moment, Annabelle realized how weak her power had been.Kendrick kissed more passionately, and his body grew hotter and hotter.Annabelle's pores instantly opened up.She had experienced this scene before, although she managed to escape later, that incident of almost being insulted suddenly reappeared like a nightmare.Eve
Kendrick let go of Annabelle, turned around indifferently, and walked towards upstairs.Annabelle watched his departing figure and chuckled self-deprecatingly.This is the fragile affection established between people.When she left home in the morning, she still believed that Kendrick was a reliable man. However, at this moment, she realized that she really couldn't have hope in anyone anymore.However, since that day, the two of them entered into a cold war mode.Kendrick would leave early and return late, even though they lived under the same roof, Annabelle hardly ever saw him.As for Kendrick's head ailment, surprisingly, Annabelle was no longer treating it.Annabelle felt uneasy for two days. Seeing Kendrick being cold towards her, she didn't want to beg him for treatment either.And Kendrick also said that they could get a divorce anytime. Annabelle wanted to wait until the next time she saw him to arrange a time to meet
Annabelle opened the door and saw Kendrick's assistant Jaime standing outside."Assistant Gao, is there something you need?"Jaime respectfully said, "Madam, I came to help Mr. Gregory with his laundry."Annabelle paused for a moment and asked, "Hasn't he come back home yet?"Jaime was a perceptive person and he knew that there was a misunderstanding between the two of them. After listening to Annabelle's words, he understood that both of them wanted to reconcile now. Unfortunately, the president's wife was stubborn, and the president was even more stubborn.As his assistant, he naturally had to mediate more and said, "These days, there are too many things happening in the company, and the CEO is also thinking about going home every day."Annabelle blinked her eyes, is it true?How come even the clothes are now being sent back by the assistant, and she used to call her every day before, but now she doesn't even send a single message.
The mood of President's assistant Jaime also fluctuated. An assistant who doesn't care about the happiness of the president's marriage is not a good driver. Jaime is also a person with strong principles. The previous day, he secretly cursed his boss as worse than a beast. But this morning, he learned the truth and felt extremely relieved.Originally, Mr. Frye accidentally sent the president's wife away.No wonder the president was so angry. After all, Mr. Frye made a big mistake and accidentally injured the president's wife, and the president was obviously a doting husband.Anyway, it's all good now. The two of them finally made up.On Annabelle's side, however, she was still hiding under the blanket like an ostrich.She was not actually that kind of person.She used to be a calm and capable woman who could handle any situation, but ever since she encountered Kendrick, she has reverted back to her original state and everything has been spira
Annabelle's face turned red. Well, it's indeed not appropriate to let others buy underwear for you."Isn't it time for you to change?" Kendrick's lips curled into a slight smile.Annabelle felt that if there was a crack in the ground, she would definitely crawl into it.This is really embarrassing.She darted into the bathroom and quickly changed into clean underwear, but she kept hesitating and feeling embarrassed to come out.In my mind, I wondered what mood Kendrick was in when he bought her these things...And why did he buy this pink one?Annabelle carefully thought about it, could it be because he saw that her underwear was pink?She covered her face and, after a moment, moved her hands away from her face.Silly me, I was so preoccupied with being shy that I forgot about the important matter!Why did I inexplicably find myself in his suite, with my clothes all changed?And, the strangest thing was, wh
"What are you doing?" Annabelle nervously stepped back.Kendrick couldn't help but scratch her nose. "What's there to be nervous about? Just tell me, is there anything you need to buy? I'll bring it back for you."Annabelle stared at him, pouting, and said, "I don't need it."Obviously, still angry because of his prank just now, Kendrick smiled helplessly. Usually, she seemed calm, but now it seems that she still has the heart of a little girl.As Kendrick left, only Annabelle remained. She relaxed and looked around, curious about the kind of house this guy had been living in recently.It has to be said that this presidential suite is actually equivalent to a luxurious apartment, and obviously it is specially prepared for Kendrick, because there are many exclusive decorations for him in the room, such as the painting on the wall, which is clearly his favorite abstract style.At that moment, she noticed a new photo being placed on his desk, c
Annabelle almost blurted out, temporarily forgetting about the argument with Kendrick the previous night. Normally composed, she frantically started searching for clothes, with her mind set on going out to buy medicine.Kendrick saw her with red eyes and a helpless look, as if she was truly panicked."Don't you want to have a baby with me?"He pulled her back into his arms, but Annabelle struggled like an irritable little bird wanting to break free.Having been in a coma the previous night, she was weak at the moment. In addition, Kendrick was much stronger than her, so she couldn't break free and ended up swearing."Kendrick, you... you beast!"This was the first time Kendrick had been scolded like this by someone, but instead of getting angry, he felt very refreshed.And he always felt like it was a playful banter between lovers, making him really want to be a little beastly."Anna, you are the first person who dares to insul
Kendrick saw Annabelle furrowing her brows slightly, with her eyes still closed, and realized that she was sleep talking.I don't know what I dreamt about, but I shouted his name. In any case, Kendrick was in a very happy mood."I was Kendrick, not someone who changed." Even though Kendrick didn't know what Annabelle meant, he still responded to her.Afterwards, Annabelle whispered a few more words and then unexpectedly turned around, wrapping her arms around his waist and nestling in his embrace.Kendrick took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and thought to himself, "Alright, Anna, you've tormented me so much. In the future, I will make sure to get it all back from you."When Annabelle truly woke up, it was already past seven in the morning. The sky was already bright, but the room was still dim with the curtains drawn.As she opened her eyes, she immediately felt a pair of arms wrapped around her waist and turned around in fear.In t
Annabelle's lips glistened with soup, making them appear shiny. Kendrick's eyes deepened a shade.I wanted to kiss her.The moment the evil thought arose, Kendrick also thought of a way to administer the medicine.He held Annabelle and whispered, "If you don't take your medicine obediently, I will have to resort to extreme measures."Annabelle still kept her eyes tightly closed, with a slight frown on her forehead.Kendrick took a sip of medicine and kissed her lips.The first dose of medicine was successfully administered.Kendrick pulled away from her lips. After that kiss, he felt like he was about to explode.Looking at the little woman in my arms again, I wondered if it was because she had taken medicine, as a charming blush appeared on her pale face.Kendrick couldn't help but chuckle. You disobedient little white wolf, you fell asleep and obediently let me kiss you. Usually, even when I hold your hand, you glare a
Jaime didn't know that the person brought by Mr. Frye was Annabelle. At this moment, he could only sigh silently. He could tell that the president's wife was a bit cold and stubborn, but she had a kind heart and was a good girl. These days, she had been silently caring for the president.Jaime had originally thought of having the opportunity to persuade the president, but little did he expect that the president would do something to apologize to Mrs. Gregory like this!But as an assistant, he could only silently complain about Mr. Gregory being a jerk and couldn't do much else.Kendrick sat calmly on the edge of the bed for a moment, suppressing the desire burning inside him. He walked to the bathroom, soaked a towel in cold water, and returned to the bedside to gently wipe Annabelle's face.No matter how much his body protested, Kendrick had not lost his sanity. Even if he still desired her, he would not do such a thing to her in this situation.W
Kendrick's face turned cold, and he didn't look at Annabelle and Fabian again. Since she had made her choice, he didn't want to be the one hanging on anymore.Mr. Wang sipped his wine and looked at Kendrick's expression.This person was a mastermind and also an experienced player in the world of romance. Just now, he noticed that Kendrick had been staring at the back of that girl, lost in thought. The intense gaze he had was a typical expression of a man wanting to possess that woman.Based on Mr. Wang's many years of experience in the dating scene, he could confirm that the aloof and unapproachable Mr. Gregory was absolutely smitten with the girl he had just seen.He was thinking about how to flatter Kendrick, when suddenly a bright idea came to him.Mr. Frye immediately came up with an idea and borrowed an excuse to go to the restroom. He made a phone call to his subordinates and gave them some instructions. Afterward, he returned to continue dri
Annabelle shook her head, "I had a lot of things to do over here.""Could it be that you can't bear to part with Kendrick?" Fabian asked jokingly.Her face turned red all of a sudden, "How is that possible!""Just kidding," Fabian sighed, "But I also expected that you wouldn't come with me, so consider this meal today as my way of practicing, can't refuse it, right?"Annabelle smiled helplessly and said, "I really can't do anything with you."Afterwards, Fabian brought Annabelle to Grand Hotel.Two handsome men and two beautiful women walked in, instantly attracting the attention of many people.Fabian, being a designer himself, had a unique sense of style in his dressing, which immediately caught the attention of many women.Annabelle couldn't help but joke, "Every time I go out with you, I feel pressured. It's like those women could eat me alive."Fabian laughed and said, "With me around, who would dare to touch you."
