Kendall's Sacrifice

From her online search, she found out that some mothers experience reactions as early as the fifth week of pregnancy.

What if I'm actually pregnant? Am I really going to vomit for the next nine months?

It took Kelly a long time to come out as she waited for everyone else to leave the ladies.

She didn't take the flu pills Cameron bought for her in case she was really pregnant, as the medication could harm the fetus.

She had to keep the child alive before she could decide if she wanted it.

With this in mind, she decided to go to the hospital for a checkup.

Kendall, on the other hand, couldn't care less if Kelly was pregnant or not. She knew the cat would eventually be let out of the bag.

She was just waiting for Kelly and Jackson's scandal to be exposed next Saturday.

After that, Kelly would be known as a mistress for the rest of her life!

Kendall was in Amelia's car on their way to lunch.

Ronnie silently followed them in his car from behind.

"Do you still consider me a friend, Kendall?! How dare you keep something so important from me? It's no wonder that the handsome man I saw previously seemed familiar; he's Master Dylan's bodyguard! I had seen him on television before," Amelia grumbled as she drove.

"I'm sorry, my dear Amy. I didn't want to keep it from you too. But because Dylan never made our relationship public, I thought he wanted to keep it a secret, so I did not dare to tell you either. The less you know about his matters, the better. That's Ronnie. You can photograph him as many times as you want later. I'll have him strike some attractive poses."

To that, Amelia smilingly responded, "Don't worry. I didn't take it to heart. Are all of Master Dylan's bodyguards as attractive as Ronnie?"

"Yes. They are all handsome and have great body build."

Every one of them, including Ronnie and Blake, was good-looking. Many people would regard them as successful men if they went out alone.

Nobody would guess that they were bodyguards.

But then again, being Dylan's bodyguards could also be considered successful in their industry.

"Kendall."

After all the jokes, Amelia started to get serious. She asked with concern, "I thought we could talk over the meal later, but Master Dylan sent someone to follow you, and we can't really speak our minds then, so we'll do it now. Is Master Dylan able to be intimate with you?"

Kendall, however, did not know what to answer.

"Marrying him means that you'll never have a true husband-and-wife intimacy. Why did you do this to yourself?"

Amelia sighed and continued, "What happened previously? Did he force you into this?"

"I was the one who forced him."

It was now Amelia's turn to be silent.

"Amy, rumors are just rumors. Most of the time, they're not the truth. Trust me; I will be happy."

Kendall avoided answering Amelia's question about Dylan's ability to be intimate.

But Amelia was smart enough to understand what Kendall meant.

"Since you said so, you have my heartfelt blessings. When is your wedding? I must be your bridesmaid!"

"Of course you are! You're the only friend I've made since I moved back in with my biological parents."

Who else could Kendall ask other than Amelia?

Their sincere conversation lasted the entire journey, and in no time, they arrived at the hotel where they had previously enjoyed holding gatherings.

The moment Amelia parked her car, another vehicle came closer and pulled up next to her car.

At first, Kendall assumed it was Ronnie's car. When she stepped out of Amelia's car, someone got out of that car as well.

And she immediately wished she could get back into the car when she saw the familiar charming face and alluring eyes.

It's Frank again!

The hotel they were at now wasn't a five-star hotel. A person of Frank's social standing would never come here for a meal.

But he had appeared nonetheless.

There could be only one explanation. Obviously, Frank had sent someone to follow Kendall's whereabouts. Hence, wherever she went, Frank would appear as if it was a chance encounter.

Both of them stood face to face. Frank locked his gaze on Kendall, his eyes as dark as a bottomless pit, hoping to entice her in.

"What a coincidence, President Mendelson!"

Kendall then sarcastically added, "After having you here, this hotel will definitely prosper in the future."

"Of course they will. After all, the Young Mistress Kendall is one of their customers," Frank, too, replied ironically.

Kendall was left speechless. "After you, President Mendelson," she quickly said to divert the conversation.

But Frank did not move an inch, and he behaved in a gentlemanly fashion as he said, "Ladies first."

Seeing that, Kendall decided not to be pretentious and entered the hotel first.

Amelia quickly grabbed Kendall's arms and yanked her to the side, while Ronnie stood in front of Kendall.

Noticing that Dylan had sent Ronnie to be by Kendall's side, Frank pursed his lips and looked as if he wanted to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth.

"Ms. Taylor."

Frank abruptly stopped in front of Amelia.

Amelia had a negative impression of Frank and found him terrifying.

Thus, her entire body stiffened when he called her. She tightened her grip on Kendall's arm, but she had no choice but to force a smile.

"P-President Mandelson."

"I haven't seen you in a long time, Ms. Taylor."

"Indeed, President Mandelson."

But Amelia secretly screamed in her heart that she would never want to see Frank again.
