I wish it were you Chapter 888 If I Can't Have Your Heart, I'll Have Your Body
Before Julissa could reach the door, Scott grabbed her wrist. With a slight tug, he pulled her back in front of him."I haven't agreed yet, and you just say we're breaking up?""Then should I wait for you to dump me?"Julissa broke free from his hand and was about to walk out again, but Scott directly hugged her from behind."At least give me a reason," he said almost against Julissa's face. "Why do you suddenly not want me anymore?"His voice also sounded very aggrieved, and Julissa was almost on the verge of giving in.Perhaps men like him—who are half-hearted—are very good at saying such pitiful words. Maybe he is sincere and likes every woman, which is why he is so reluctant to part with her.But Julissa doesn't want to be just one of his favorite women. She wants to be his only one."Because you're a big scumbag! Let me go!"Julissa was like an irritable little pigeon, fluttering non-stop in Scott's arms.Scott was pushed to the limit by her. He directly grabbed her two small str

Julissa was both scared and angry after hearing those words—mostly because Scott didn’t sound like he was joking.The worst part was that she was the one who was heartbroken, and now she had to back down? How was that fair?“Fine, we won’t break up,” she said, “but we need to talk.”Only then did Scott get up. He helped her put her dress back on and tidied up his own appearance.Worried she might run again, he wisely went over and locked the door to the lounge room before returning to the sofa.He pulled the deflated little dove of a girl back onto his lap.“Alright, tell me—who told you about Yvette?”Julissa was fuming, but sitting on his lap, she didn’t dare provoke him further. So she explained obediently.“She told me herself. When you were talking business with the partners, Yvette came to the company. She said you two used to date and that she wants to get back together.She also said you’re tempted but hesitant because you’re already with me, and you don’t want to hurt me.So

Julissa blinked in disbelief.“Wait, you got dumped? Mr. Nichols, you were someone’s backup plan?”Scott’s expression darkened immediately.“Is it really that hard to believe? You almost dumped me just now.”“…Fair point,” Julissa scratched her head sheepishly, a guilty smile playing at her lips.But after hearing the story, the knot in her chest loosened a little.In fact, she couldn’t help but feel just a little sorry for him.A first love that lasted barely two weeks… only to find out you were just a pawn?That was rough.Especially considering they hadn’t even held hands—and yet Yvette had the audacity to claim their relationship had been deep and meaningful? Julissa mentally scoffed.But then again… if Scott had never kissed her, didn’t that mean she had stolen his first kiss?Wait, no. Just because he didn’t get anywhere with Yvette didn’t mean he hadn’t dated others.Hadn’t he once mentioned… something about renting a hotel room with a stranger?Just thinking about it again mad

What happened next had left a devastating mark on Yvette.After losing her baby, she finally saw that man for what he truly was—and made the decision to leave him for good.But the man refused to let her go. He stalled, dragged things out, made every excuse he could.She had no income. No way to afford a good lawyer.The court-appointed legal aid was careless and dismissive, treating her case like a chore.So the divorce dragged on and on, unresolved.Earlier this year, when Scott traveled to Japan for business and learned about her situation, he stepped in.He hired a competent attorney on her behalf, and finally, after years of misery, helped her secure her freedom.Just as his business in Japan wrapped up and he prepared to fly back to China, Yvette attempted to take her own life.She slit her wrists.She was found in time and rushed to the hospital. She survived.But Scott had no choice but to delay his flight home.It was then that he found out—Yvette had been struggling with dep

Back when the scandal broke, Yvette’s father was so furious he suffered a stroke and had to be hospitalized.Her mother gave her an ultimatum: leave that man or lose her family forever.Yvette chose love.She ran away with him to Japan.Now, years later, she returned home hoping to mend what was broken. But her parents had long since moved away.It was Julian who suggested she stay at their house temporarily.Eventually, they managed to track down her parents’ new address.Scott and Julian even accompanied her to visit them. But the reception she received was… cold.Frigid, even.Her parents were polite but distant. They made it clear—they weren’t ready to welcome her back as their daughter.Scott could only feel sympathy. He wanted to help her, truly. But the human heart was a delicate thing, and no matter how much he or Julian tried, they were still outsiders in a very personal wound.The only thing they could offer was a roof over her head for now.“Well,” Scott said softly, brushi

Julissa shook her head with a pout. “Didn’t I just say it? No breakup, no breakup~”Honestly, it was fear that made her take those words back earlier.But now that she’d heard the full story, she wasn’t even thinking about breaking up anymore.She never really wanted to, anyway.“Well then…” Scott said, a wicked glint flashing in his eyes. “It’s time for me to properly punish my dear Miss Hickman.”Julissa shivered. “Why punish me?!”“To remind you,” he said, stepping closer, “that I’m not the kind of man who gets dumped so easily.”With that, he scooped her up into his arms like she weighed nothing and carried her up the short staircase to the mezzanine level of the lounge, toward the soft, white double bed.“Scott—! You promised me—you said you wouldn’t force me into anything…”“Relax,” he murmured near her ear. “Just a few kisses, nothing… more.”The last two words were whispered in such a husky, low voice that Julissa’s face immediately turned the color of a ripe tomato.Who would

Julissa froze for a moment before turning to face him. "What is it?"Scott looked at her with a complicated expression. After two seconds of hesitation, he said, "Forget it. I’ll tell you after we’re married.""Why not before the wedding?"His face darkened slightly. "I just can’t.""Why not?"A little warning bell started going off in Julissa’s mind.She had just dodged one landmine, and now another one was popping up?!Scott took a deep breath. "Just trust me. I can’t tell you now, so don’t ask."Julissa narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing him. "Did you do something behind my back? Something so bad that you’re afraid I won’t marry you if I find out?"Otherwise, why wait until after marriage to spill the truth?Scott pressed his lips together, silent.Julissa immediately sat up, frowning. "Wait… Do you have an illegitimate child?!"Scott: "???"Where did that come from?!What kind of absurd train of thought was this?!"How did we get to illegitimate children?" he asked, completely baffle

Julissa felt like her feelings for Scott perfectly fit the saying: attracted by looks, captivated by talent, and loyal to character.At first, it was his appearance that caught her eye. Then, after working with him and witnessing his work ethic, admiration followed.Now, after hearing about how he had selflessly helped Yvette with her divorce case, stood by her side through her struggles with depression, and continued to care for her after returning to the country—it all spoke volumes about his character.This wasn’t some unresolved attachment to an ex.Scott was simply a man of loyalty and integrity, even toward those who had hurt him.And looking back, he had only ever treated Yvette with basic courtesy—never crossing any inappropriate lines. It was Yvette who had misinterpreted his kindness, not him who had given her any reason to.After sorting through all this, the impulsive Julissa finally had complete clarity.She looked at her boyfriend, now finding him even more pleasing to t

I wish it were you Chapter 950 She Likes Rambling in His Arms
Annabelle felt ticklish and giggled, swatting his hand lightly. “Lie still for a while, or I won’t keep you company.”Only then did Mr. Gregory purse his lips and obediently stop moving.If Anna hadn’t just recovered from a serious illness, and if he himself weren’t still weak right now, otherwise…Sigh! Kendrick let out a gloomy sigh, burying his face in the crook of her neck.After a moment, he asked, “By the way, did your young master say what exactly caused your fainting and shock?”Annabelle glanced at him with amusement. Every time he said your young master, she could smell the thick scent of jealousy wafting off him—but it was kind of cute, his little petty streak.So she repeated everything Ryan had told her, word for word.Kendrick listened carefully and didn’t comment much afterward. He only said, “Looks like you just had bad luck and ran into a poisonous flower.”Annabelle then brought up the scene at the little beach cabin, saying she was curious about what kind of woman h
I wish it were you Chapter 949 Did It Make Your Heart Ache?
In Annabelle’s eyes, Kendrick had made the best possible decision at the time—he had put her safety above all else and didn’t let pride get in the way by refusing the young master’s help.It was this kind of maturity and rationality that had always drawn her to Kendrick, giving her a deep sense of grounded security by his side.Looking at the petite woman in front of him, Kendrick suddenly didn’t know what to say.The guilt that had been gnawing at him for the past two days… was completely dissolved by a few simple, gentle words from his little bunny.Especially the phrase “You’re my husband.” That alone was more healing than ten IV drips.Without warning, he rolled over and pinned Anna onto the bed, kissing her more assertively, expressing his feelings in a far more direct way.Annabelle started pounding on his chest with little muffled sounds of protest.This man was crazy! If he kept moving like this, the IV line would come loose!But even sick, Kendrick was much stronger than she
I wish it were you Chapter 948 The Old Fox Seems a Bit Pitiful
Annabelle looked like she'd been caught red-handed, flustered and wide-eyed, staring at Kendrick at such a close distance.He, too, had his eyes slightly open, emotions deep and complex pooling within them.The anxiety and torment he’d endured these past two days—it all seemed to be captured in that one gaze.Kendrick moved the hand that had been resting on her back up to cradle the back of her head, and kissed her even deeper.Annabelle slowly closed her eyes, not daring to move, afraid of tugging at his IV line and causing the needle to slip out.Of course, she didn’t want to pull away either…So, what started as Kendrick kissing her forcefully ended up with her being more proactive and passionate instead.Coco, lazily glancing at the two people locked in an intense kiss, yawned, jumped off the bed, and followed the scent of its cat food to go find Uncle Trey.The little white cat trotted to the door, jumped up at the handle, hooked its front paws around it just right, then used its
I wish it were you Chapter 947 Lost a Lot of Weight
"I'm heading over now."Just as Annabelle was about to hang up the phone, she heard Uncle Trey call out again, “Young Madam, wait a moment!”She brought the phone back to her ear. “What is it?”“When you come from home, could you bring Coco’s food and litter box? Young Master brought the cat over the night before last, but he didn’t bring any of its stuff. I’ve been too busy to go pick them up myself. It’s not starving or anything, but the poor thing has nowhere to go to the bathroom. It’s been squatting in the big flower pot every day…”Annabelle: “…”A vivid image popped into her mind—Coco tucked awkwardly under Kendrick’s arm, eyes wide with panic, meowing nonstop in complaint the entire way.She could just imagine it—one big, one small, both of them looking lost and homeless, wandering around like pitiful strays.But no matter how disoriented they were, how could they forget the cat food and litter?!Annabelle quickly gathered Coco’s things and drove to the old Gu estate.Just as
I wish it were you Chapter 946 Barely Holding On
Ryan gave a small nod, unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt, and lay down on the bed, quickly falling asleep.Only after hearing his steady breathing did Seraphina return to his side. She carefully removed his outer shirt, then used a warm towel to wipe his face, and then his chest—where the alcohol had spilled. Sleeping like that would definitely be uncomfortable.Finally, she pulled the blanket over him.Seraphina stared at the man in bed for a long time. Then, for the first time, gathering all her courage, she leaned down and placed a light kiss on the lips of the man she loved.He didn’t love her. In his eyes, she probably lacked even a trace of a woman’s charm—perhaps she couldn’t even stir up a shred of desire.But he had given her the utmost respect. Could that be considered a form of caring?Seraphina gently touched his lips with her fingers, her heart full of bitterness, but in the end, she smiled softly.Maybe… that’s enough.…Annabelle had already arrived at the the Grego
I wish it were you Chapter 945 Willing
The Young Master was drinking?Seraphina quickly set the breakfast tray on the foyer cabinet and rushed inside. Not seeing him in the outer living room, she headed toward the inner rooms.She paused as she passed through the dining area.The vase had been knocked over, shattered glass scattered all across the floor, and the flowers lay strewn in disarray.Seraphina’s heart pounded. She carefully stepped over the broken shards and headed toward the bedroom.The curtains were drawn tight, casting the room into darkness. The Young Master was sitting on the carpet at the foot of the bed, his head leaned back against the mattress, seemingly asleep.The top two buttons of his shirt were undone, a large alcohol stain spread across the front, and beside him sat an almost-empty bottle of strong liquor.Looking at him like this, Seraphina felt her heart shatter.The Young Master had endured so many blows in his life, but he had never fallen into despair like this. He had always gritted his teet
I wish it were you Chapter 944 The Door Opened for Her
The taxi pulled away from the hotel entrance. Annabelle rolled the window up and gave the driver the address of the the Gregory Group headquarters.She turned back to look at Seraphina, who was still standing there at the entrance, gazing in her direction.When Seraphina had said, “Actually, I should be the one thanking you,” her expression had looked sorrowful—with a touch of self-mockery. That made Annabelle even more certain of one thing:Seraphina must have feelings for the Young Master.So she had thanked her… because Annabelle was leaving him.Annabelle suddenly wanted the driver to turn around. She wanted to personally tell Seraphina that she would never fight her for the Young Master. If possible, she’d even be willing to help them get together.But she couldn’t interfere in the Young Master’s love life anymore.That would only be rubbing salt into his wounds.Not willing to be with someone, yet still trying to introduce them to someone else?That wasn’t right. And Annabelle k
I wish it were you Chapter 943 Goodbye, Ms. Sanchez
Annabelle’s pale face finally flushed with a hint of red. She covered her stomach in embarrassment and smiled.“I won’t eat—Kendrick must be really worried about me. I want to go back as soon as possible.”With that, she headed back to the bedroom, grabbed her own clean clothes from the bench at the end of the bed, and went into the walk-in closet.It was the summer outfit she had worn back in the small fishing village. Elfhedge’s weather was still far too cold for dresses, but she didn’t want to wait for the Young Master to find her something warmer.All she knew was—Kendrick must be worried sick.And knowing that she was here, with the Young Master… he was surely feeling awful.She had to get back—immediately.Annabelle changed into her clothes and stepped out of the closet. The light summer dress and linen sandals made her look fresh and airy as she walked up to the Young Master.“Young Master, I’m leaving now.”Ryan looked her up and down but didn’t say anything more. He simply re
I wish it were you Chapter 942 I Want to Kiss You Again
The Young Master said it as if he were joking, but Annabelle couldn’t help taking it seriously.He had once given her the courage and will to live. He had spent years meticulously nursing her back to health, restoring her appearance. Even after they reunited, he had saved her life several times.The grace and kindness he had shown her weren’t things that could be repaid with just a few words.So before she met Kendrick, before she accepted his love, Annabelle had always thought—One day, she must repay the Young Master.How?Anything she had, anything he wanted.But now that she was with Kendrick, she could no longer say something like that so casually.She couldn’t betray her commitment to Kendrick just to repay the Young Master,Nor could she forget the Young Master’s kindness just because she had Kendrick now.Her only hope was that the Young Master would ask for something she could give—As long as it wasn’t something like, “Stay with me.”Caught in this internal struggle, Annabel
