Chapter 761 No News from Him

The night before, when Julissa was rushed to the hospital, Annabelle had already given her a quick pulse diagnosis.At the time, her pulse showed signs of severe vitality depletion—a harbinger of death. That was why Annabelle had been so terrified.After hours of emergency treatment, Julissa’s condition had finally stabilized, though she remained extremely weak due to blood and energy deficiency.Even though she had survived the night and was out of immediate danger, she still needed careful care. A serious illness, if not properly nursed, could leave lasting complications.Annabelle planned to prepare a medicinal formula to help replenish Julissa’s energy and blood, aiding her recovery.However, some of the necessary ingredients were not available in her current stock, and the rarer ones weren’t commonly sold in regular herbal medicine shops.She decided that once Julissa woke up and her condition was more stable, she would make a trip to the mountains to collect the herbs from Uncle

Chapter 762 No Feelings Anymore

Seeing the disappointment on Julissa’s face, Annabelle could easily guess—she must have been waiting for news from Scott. It seemed she truly cared about him. But with her low spirits and weak body, Julissa soon drifted back to sleep. Around 8 PM, Liam arrived. Annabelle told him that Julissa had just fallen asleep, and there was no telling when she would wake up. “It’s fine. I’ll just stay with her for a while. If she’s still asleep by nine, I’ll leave.” Annabelle sighed inwardly but didn’t say anything more. When Liam had arrived earlier, he had seemed visibly excited—perhaps because he knew Julissa had regained consciousness. However, he kept his voice low, not wanting to disturb her. Now that he had confirmed Julissa’s condition was stable, he let out a noticeable sigh of relief. He pulled up a chair beside her bed and sat quietly, simply watching over her. Seeing the way he looked at Julissa, Annabelle started to believe Kendrick’s theory. Kendrick had once said that Li

Chapter 763 The Man Who’s Cold Outside but Warm Inside

After waking up, Julissa found herself thinking—if she had really died, her biggest regret would have been all the words left unsaid.All the unspoken feelings that could never be answered, especially those concerning Scott…Did he know she was in the hospital? He probably did, right?As soon as Anna requested leave for her, the company would have been informed. And if Scott didn’t receive her reports and emails, he would have asked about her.But Anna hadn’t mentioned anything about him. And there were no messages from him on her phone.He was still in Tokyo. Probably busy…A wave of disappointment washed over her.How could he say he liked her, tell her to think carefully before giving him an answer, and then act so indifferent afterward?Could it be that Scott was really such a straight-laced man that he expected her to quietly contemplate for a whole month before deciding whether or not to be with him?“How does he treat you?” Liam suddenly asked.Julissa thought for a moment. “He

Chapter 764 A Gift!

From the man’s travel-worn appearance and anxious gaze, Liam instantly deduced that this must be the "Mr. Nichols" Julissa had mentioned.No wonder she was drawn to him—this man was indeed exceptional.For someone as proud and competitive as Liam, it was a rare moment of defeat. An unspoken sense of inadequacy surfaced within him.“Anna, is that you?” A weak voice came from inside the hospital room.Scott’s brows furrowed.Was this really the same lively, chatterbox Julissa? She looked so fragile—she must have suffered quite a bit.He set down his suitcase, which still bore the airline’s baggage tag, and gave Liam a slight nod before striding inside.Approaching the hospital bed, he took in her pale complexion, and his brows furrowed even deeper.He rubbed his palms together to warm them before gently wrapping his hand around hers.“Does it hurt?”As he spoke, he reached out to touch her forehead. He wasn’t a doctor, but as long as she didn’t have a fever, things shouldn’t be too bad.

Chapter 765 Handing Her Over to Someone Else

Julissa’s lips curled into a smile as she nodded eagerly.Though neither of them had mentioned the confession from before, she could feel that something between them had subtly changed.This time, after his business trip, the invisible barrier between them had thinned to the point where it was like a fragile cicada’s wing—so delicate that even a gentle breeze could shatter it.The anticipation of this budding relationship felt completely different from anything she had experienced before.For the first time, she could genuinely feel Scott’s affection for her.Even though he had a sharp tongue, never uttered sweet words, and had never made any promises, she just knew.It was something she had never felt before—not even when she was with Liam.Had her past relationship been a joke? Well, there was no need to question it—it truly had been.Speaking of Liam… why was he still here?Scott had gone to fetch her gifts, so Julissa turned to Liam and said, “You should go home now. My friend is

Chapter 766 The Order of Love

“I got it.”Scott took the capsule toy from her hands and gave it a slight twist. The transparent shell popped open, and he took out the tiny cartoon figure inside.As Julissa reached out to take it, her fingers brushed against his palm.Scott didn’t let go. Instead, he clasped her hand—along with the tiny figure—firmly in his palm.“Did you miss me?”His sudden question nearly made Julissa’s heart leap out of her chest.For someone usually so outspoken and straightforward, she was suddenly at a loss for words. Her face flushed as she lowered her gaze and gave a small nod.She had thought about him almost every day. The less he reached out, the more her longing for him grew uncontrollably.Lately, she had even started checking Tokyo’s weather forecast—because she had heard that after circling around on business trips, he had returned there.She wanted to know what he was doing on the other side of the sea.Who he was meeting.What he was eating.Whether he ever thought of her.Since h

Chapter 767 Taking Advantage

Inside the hospital room, two people sat holding hands, chatting away.The little patient, who had woken up complaining of a headache and hunger, now showed no signs of discomfort. Her face, once pale, was now glowing with a healthy flush.Outside the room, Annabelle stood holding a bag of jelly oranges and a box of strawberries. Through the window, she watched the scene and couldn't help but smile.This was how it should be. If Scott had delayed any longer, her dear Julissa might have really decided not to play with him anymore.She had arrived at the hospital a while ago. Liam had come out, greeted her, and mentioned that Mr. Nichols was inside. Annabelle chose not to enter, opting instead to quietly observe from outside the window.She couldn't hear their conversation, but she could see everything.When she saw Scott's suitcase full of snacks and toys, she nearly burst out laughing.Since the two seemed engrossed in their endless conversation, Annabelle decided not to interrupt the

Chapter 768 Blocked

"Didn't you just have your fill this morning?" Annabelle accused."What if I still haven't had enough?" Kendrick grinned as he switched off the bedside lamp.But neither of them expected that after this night, a separation would await them.Two days later, Annabelle went to the mountains with Uncle Trey.Uncle Trey was driving Annabelle's car while she sat in the passenger seat. The atmosphere was light and cheerful as they chatted along the way.When Annabelle learned that Uncle Trey enjoyed listening to traditional ballads, she mentioned that although she couldn't sing, she could play the music quite well and knew some of the classic tunes. She offered to play for him next time she visited the family estate.Uncle Trey was delighted and agreed enthusiastically. He said he rarely had the chance to listen to live music because of his busy schedule at the Gregory family. The thought of Annabelle playing while he sang excited him, and they even planned a future duet.Their conversation

Chapter 769 Not After Money

Annabelle's heart sank. It seemed they had encountered robbers, though she hadn't expected such audacity in broad daylight.She exchanged a glance with Uncle Trey, who said calmly, "Don't panic. If they're just after money, we have nothing to fear."Annabelle nodded, slowing down the car and coming to a halt a short distance from the barricade.Seven or eight men swaggered toward them. Leading the group was a buzz-cut man spinning a knife in his hand, seemingly their leader. The others wielded long metal rods.The men quickly surrounded Annabelle's car. The buzz-cut man rapped on the window and gestured for her to get out."Step out for a chat, beautiful," he sneered.Uncle Trey immediately warned, "Don't listen to him."Annabelle had no intention of complying. Getting out would put her at a severe disadvantage. Instead, she lowered the window just enough to hear what they wanted."Not getting out? Fine!" The buzz-cut man signaled one of his men, who lifted his metal rod and slammed i

Chapter 770 After Her Pretty Face

Annabelle nodded. "Uncle Trey, be careful.""Don't worry," Uncle Trey replied calmly, stepping out of the car.Though Annabelle trusted his experience in handling emergencies, her heart remained tightly clenched. The men outside were young and numerous, while Uncle Trey was older and alone. If things turned violent, the odds were against him.As soon as Uncle Trey exited the vehicle, Annabelle quickly grabbed her phone to call Kendrick.But before she could dial, a pained cry echoed through the air. Startled, her hands trembled, nearly dropping the phone.She looked through the rearview mirror and saw Uncle Trey on one knee, clutching his leg. One of the thugs had struck him with an iron rod.Fear gripped her chest, but she forced herself to stay calm. Gritting her teeth, she completed the call.The line connected."Back already?" Kendrick's reassuring voice came through, but this time it did nothing to ease her panic.No matter how capable Kendrick was, he couldn't fly to her side in
