Kendall's Sacrifice

As if he was thinking of something, the smile slipped from Dylan's face when he fell into pondering. After a moment, he murmured, "I think our firstborn would be a cute girl, just like the one in your dream."

Kendall was taken aback by his confession. If my baby would choose me as her mother again in this life, I will protect her at all costs. Besides, she will live a happy life with Dylan as her father.

"Me too. I hope we will have a daughter as adorable as the girl in my dream." Kendall agreed with a soft tone and her gaze fell into the distance, as if she was watching her previous life.

Reincarnation changed people and things. At the moment, Kendall was living her second life differently from the last. Baby, it seems like we'll never see each other again.

Dylan then asked gently, "Whom does the girl in your dream look like? Does she look more like you or the father?"

A hint of gentleness could be found in Kendall's tone when she answered, "She looks like me very much."

In her previous life, she wasn't aware that her baby wasn't related to Jackson precisely because the baby looked too much like her and nothing like the father.

Dylan raised his head to observe her. She will look like you, you say?

"Is Frank really her father in your dream?" Dylan didn't realize he was asking it with a twinge of jealousy.

After all, Kendall was his wife. He would like all of her attention on him to the point where she would even dream of him instead of another man.

"Dylan, it was only a dream." Even though Kendall consoled him with gentle words to change the topic, she was apologizing to him deep down. She didn't mean to tell him lies, but no sane person would believe in things such as reincarnation, not even until she herself experienced it.

There was no way a man of science like Dylan would believe in reincarnation.

Therefore, she could only tell him the stories in the form of dreams.

"I understand they were all dreams, or else I won't let Frank get away easily."

Kendall lowered her head and pressed a kiss onto his cheek before she took a step back and giggled. "Dylan, I like it when you're jealous."

"You're proud of it?"

"Nope, but I'm happy to see your words backfire."

Dylan was speechless at her critics. After all, he was the one who spoke the words in an absolute manner without leaving any space for discussion in the first place. He left no scope in his words in the beginning, but now his words were backfiring on him.

"I'm not sure if the baby belongs to him. He was the one who dreamed of us together and told me he was the father of the baby. However, I had never talked to him once in my dream. Among all of our limited encounters, I was looking at him from a distance."

It was precisely what happened in her first life.

Dylan allowed the silence to hang in the air instead of answering.

Maybe God is trying to tell me something if Frank is having a similar dream.

Dylan couldn't guess what fate was trying to imply, but he was desperate to find out the true identity of the culprit, who was able to involve him and Frank in the wicked game.

Frank and Dylan were among the most renowned young talents in Orapolis. They were counted as the top men in terms of their capabilities, intelligence, and influence. However, Dylan couldn't think of a name who could put him and Frank onto the chessboard as pawns at the same time.

Even though Kendall was married to Dylan in reality and had no ties with Frank or was even pregnant with Frank's child, Dylan was aware that he had to keep an eye on the unknown person behind everything due to all the hints.

"Dylan?"

Collecting his thoughts, he decided to change the topic. "Let's go, Kendall. You should find Alice and Jane and change into attire for horse riding. I'll ask someone to help you choose the most obedient horse."

"You don't need my company anymore?"

A laugh escaped from him. "I brought you here expecting you would ride them. Ronnie and the others will accompany me. You should enjoy yourself."

He stopped for a moment before continuing, "There's more time awaiting us in the future anyway."

Kendall no longer declined his kind gesture as she had longed to try it out by watching the others on the horse from the side.

The interaction between Dylan and Kendall brought a smile to the onlookers.

Meanwhile, a man was riding a horse next to Toddy as their horses galloped forward. He tilted his head at his companion and shot a question. "It seems like Master Dylan has taken a liking to his wife."

Toddy turned to look at the couple in the distance and laughed. "Of course. He even announced their relationship to the public. He's bringing her here on vacation to introduce her to his social circle."

"Didn't that second daughter of the Parker Family threaten to kill herself at the beginning in opposition to the marriage?"

The man who was speaking, Clifford from the Knight Family, was one of Dylan's friends. He was the fourth son of the Knight Family in Albarife. The Knight Family had always been doing business with the Colemans, and Clifford was the person in charge of his family.

"Mr. Knight, the outcome is what matters. We don't dwell on the progress."

Toddy's words weren't providing any assurance as Clifford couldn't help but worry. "Are you not afraid of her trying to manipulate Master Dylan?"
