Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 557

Dylan pinched Scott's cheeks and threatened, "You're lucky you're three years old. Otherwise, don't even think

about coming close to my wife."

Scott smiled flatteringly. He still couldn't understand what a wife was, but he knew a wife would always be by his

side.

Mom is Dad's wife, so Dad will always be with Mom. Also, Miss Parker is Mr. Dylan's wife, so Miss Parker will always

be around Mr. Dylan.

Since he liked being with Kendall and hoped she could always be with him like his mom, he wanted Kendall to be his

wife so that she would stay with him forever.

With a child livening the atmosphere, the awkwardness the Ford couple felt soon disappeared.

"Margaret, congratulations on making a full recovery!"

Kendall congratulated Margaret before teasing them, "When the time is right, you guys can give Scott a younger

sibling."

When Margaret heard that, she blushed.

As she gradually recovered, she could sense her husband's desire and even noticed his burning gaze whenever he

looked at her. It was so passionate that it burned her.

During the three years she was in a coma, Eric disciplined himself and only focused on managing the company

while taking care of Scott. No matter who tried to persuade him to look for another woman, he stood his ground

and waited for Margaret to wake up.

His affection deeply moved Margaret.

The two of them got married to unite their families. At the beginning of their marriage, Margaret was hesitant

because she didn't know if she could capture Eric's heart.

Fortunately for them, the two bonded after living together for a while and became a loving couple.

"Stop teasing me. When are you and Master Dylan going to have a wedding? Also, when can I have a goddaughter

or a godson? I'm serious, Kendall. I must become your child's godmother."

"A wedding…" Kendall looked at her husband and smiled. "Once we have time, we can hold a wedding any

moment."

She knew Dylan was secretly preparing for their marriage.

"As for a child, of course, we're also looking forward to having one, but it's a waiting game as we don't know when

the child will come."

Kendall admitted that she did want to become a mother.

Since she had decided to let her baby return, the two had stopped using all contraception methods. After counting

the days, Kendall felt it should be soon.

She now paid a lot of attention to her health, trying not to get a cold. Also, she didn't consume any medications or

alcohol in case she conceived.

"Having children also depends on fate," Kendall whispered.

Margaret patted Kendall's hand. "Don't give yourself too much pressure. Sometimes, the more pressured you are,

the more things won't go your way."

As Margaret didn't know the whole story, she thought the Colemans were urging Kendall to have a child, which was

why she felt so much pressure.

"Yes, let fate take its course. By the way, since you three came here so early, you must not have had breakfast yet,

right? Come on, let's eat together," Kendall urged while pulling Margaret to her feet.

Scott disliked being ignored. "Mommy, hug me."

Just as Margaret turned around and was about to pick Scott up, Eric picked up Scott and said, "Your body is still

weak, so don't carry this brat. He has put on some weight recently."

Afterward, Dylan pinched Scott's cheek and concurred, "Someone's gained some weight, huh? Be careful you can't

eat sugary foods anymore if you become obese."

"I want to eat sugary foods!" Scott started feeling anxious.

"Mr. Dylan is just trying to scare you. You'll be fine, sweetheart!"

Kendall smiled and gave Dylan a death stare. "Stop teasing Scott. Look how you scared him."

Scott looked at his dad and finally felt relieved after getting his dad's confirmation.

Mr. Dylan is so mean. He must want me to become obese so that Miss Parker will dislike me, he thought.

Since the Fords had come for a visit, Kendall wanted to stay at home and entertain them as the host. However, the

Fords declined her offer, saying they would bring Scott around the city and didn't need her to accompany them.

Then, they left.

Thus, Kendall could only give up on that idea.

Instead of immediately heading to the company, Kendall chose to head back to the Parker Residence.

As Charlotte hadn't woken up, the servant wanted to head upstairs to wake her up but was stopped by Kendall.

Kendall sat on the couch, and the servant returned with a plate of fruits before placing it on the coffee table,

asking, "Miss Kendall, would you like some pickles? I made them myself."

"Pickles must be very sour, right? I don't like sour stuff," Kendall instinctively rejected.

But soon, she changed her mind. "Alright, I'll give it a try."

The servant smiled. "It is quite sour, but I added some onion and spices, so it tastes sour, sweet, and spicy at the

same time. It's delicious, and it stimulates your appetite. I only dared to ask you because you're Miss Kendall. If it

had been Miss Kelly, I wouldn't have dared to ask her."

All the servants knew that Kendall grew up in the countryside and could accept the cheap foods they ate, which was

unlike Miss Kelly, who only consumed the best and the most expensive food and drinks. Even the fruits she ate were

imported fruits.

That servant returned with a plate of cut-up pickles with a layer of diced red onions.

When Kendall smelled the pickles, she felt like she was about to drool.

She used a toothpick to pick a slice of pickle and placed it inside her mouth. With the diced onions on the pickle, the

spicy taste mellowed the sourness of the pickle, which was quite delicious.

"How is it?" The servant asked, "Is it nice?"

After finishing the first one, Kendall ate another and praised while chewing, "It does taste good. I don't mind the

sourness and even feel that more sourness might make it even tastier."

Seeing that she enjoyed the food, the servant was delighted, and the two began chatting.

Kendall didn't put on airs and invited the servant to enjoy the pickles with her.

The two ate a piece one after another and soon finished the whole plate of food.

"That was a great snack," Kendall exclaimed while feeling like she could eat another whole plate of pickles.

When Charlotte came down the stairs and heard Kendall's voice, she called out from the stairs. "Kendall, why didn't

you wake me up?"

"I wanted to let you sleep a while longer."

Rising to her feet, Kendal walked over to the stairs and waited for her mom to come down before hugging her

mom's arm while acting coquettishly.

"What did you just eat?"

"I ate some homemade pickles."

"How can you stand eating such sour things? Kendall, have you taken a liking to sour foods lately? Also, are you

easily tired and feel like you haven't had enough sleep?"

Kendall was quiet for a moment before saying, "Mom, I don't think I'm pregnant yet."

"How can you eat sour pickles if you aren't pregnant? You don't like sour foods."

"A servant made them herself. She added some spices and onions, so it's sour, sweet, and spicy at the same time.

It's delicious, and I ate quite a lot. I might have eaten too much though. All that crunching is not good for my teeth.

Maybe I'll only eat something soft for lunch." Dylan's skin is soft…

When the servant saw Charlotte coming down, she quickly cleaned up and ran away because she was worried

Charlotte might criticize her for giving Kendall cheap fruits.

Ever since Kendall returned to the Parker Family, Charlotte had been trying to get Kendall to forget the habits and

preferences she acquired from living in the countryside.

However, some habits were etched deeply inside her and couldn't be changed that easily.
