Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 566

"Frank, I'm not obliged to tell you about my private affairs."

After a moment of silence, Frank rose from the chair and picked up the cup. Then, he chugged down the tea and

put the empty cup back on the table. "Dylan, you're luckier than I am."

With that, he turned around and left. Although Dylan didn't reply to his question, Frank had figured out the answer.

Realizing that Kendall must be pregnant, Frank was overwhelmed with complicated feelings. The office door then

slammed shut with a bang.

Dylan frowned and murmured, "He's destroyed my door. I'm going to get him to buy me a new door and

compensate for any potential damage to my mental health."

If Frank were still there, their conversation would probably go like this:

Frank would turn to Dylan and ask, "Why don't you go rob a bank?"

"I'm not going to rob any bank. I'll only rob you." Dylan would likely make a sarcastic comment.

Frank would be rendered speechless. Since he had come all the way to get humiliated, he could only put up with it.

After Frank left, Dylan picked up his phone and called his wife. When the call was connected, he said to Kendall with

a smile, "Darling, I made money to buy formula milk for our child."

Kendall replied with a smile, "Congratulations."

"I'll let you keep it. From now on, you'll handle the finances of our family."

Kendall teased him by saying, "Aren't you worried I'll take all your money and run away? By then, you'll be left with

nothing."

"You said that you'd never dump me for all your life. I trust you."

Kendall was deeply moved, for the man had changed a lot. In the past, he was distant and aloof, but now, he was

always tender when he talked to her. "I'm just pulling your leg. I'll never let you be left with nothing. Thanks for

trusting me, Darling. I love you."

A smile played on Dylan's lips. "I love you too. By the way, have you made some preparations for Miss Finley?"

Kendall grunted. "My dad has made some proper preparations. Emma will be one of my dad's secretaries on paper,

and she'll be on an equal footing with Miss Holmes. However, Emma will work for me in reality. After all, I'm only an

assistant to the president now. If I let Emma be my secretary directly, her position will be too insignificant in the

company."

There were still some people in the company who were under Kelly's wings. If Emma's position was too low, she

would be oppressed by Kelly's people.

Regardless of whether Emma would be Kendall's sister-in-law in the future, she was willing to side with the latter to

help her. As such, Kendall had to protect Emma and make sure no one could oppress her.

"Mr. Parker is indeed intelligent and thoughtful." Dylan couldn't help complimenting his father-in-law.

"Darling, you should probably get back to work. There are still some matters I have to attend to. See you in the

evening."

"Alright." After the call ended, Dylan moved the phone away from his ear. Thinking of something, he made another

call. This time, he called his mother.

"Hello, Dylan." Emily soon picked up the call, for her son rarely took the initiative to call. While she was pleasantly

surprised and nervous, she was also worried that her son only decided to call her because something bad had

happened.

"Mom, when you take Kendall to the party in the evening, try to limit her alcohol consumption. No, you'd better not

let her drink at all."

"Why?"

Most people would drink a little at a party.

"There's a 90 percent chance that the granddaughter you've been longing to have is inside Kendall's belly now. She

certainly can't drink at all."

Although he had hidden it from others, he had to inform his mother and grandmother.

After hearing that, Emily was elated as her laughter was heard over the phone. "Am I going to be a grandmother?

Dylan, are you pulling my leg? Is Kendall pregnant? You said you would not have a child so soon. I didn't even dare

urge you."

It had never crossed her mind that Kendall was pregnant before she even urged them.

"Wait a minute. Why did you say there's only a 90 percent chance?"

"It's only been a short time since she was thought to be pregnant, so the test result isn't very accurate. The doctor

told us to get a check-up again next week. As such, there's only a 90 percent chance that she's pregnant."

He went on to say, "Mom, I have to hold a wedding for Kendall sooner. Otherwise, when her belly bulges, she won't

fit into the wedding dress."

He had gotten a wedding dress custom-made for Kendall, so he wanted to see her put it on and become the most

beautiful bride.

"Since there's a 90 percent chance, she's certainly pregnant. That's wonderful. I'm going to be a grandmother

myself. Have you told your grandmother about it?"

"Not yet. Since it's not confirmed yet, we haven't informed anyone about it. I've only decided to give you a heads-

up since Kendall is going to attend a party with you."

Otherwise, he would've hidden the news from his mother and only informed her after confirmation.

Emily couldn't stop chuckling. "I'll tell your grandmother about it so that she'll be happy for you too. I'll pick a proper

date for the wedding. Haven't you already been preparing for the wedding? If you don't have the time to do it

personally, I don't mind lending you a hand."

As a mother, she rarely had any chance to do anything for him since his birth. Now that her son was going to hold a

wedding, she felt that she had to do something for him.

"Since Kendall is pregnant, why don't we just ask her to stay at home? There'll be a lot of people at the party. I'm

worried she'll accidentally hurt herself."

Since Kendall was pregnant, everyone in the family had a duty to protect her.

Following a moment of silence, Dylan replied, "Kendall would really love to go to a party with you, Mom. She has

stopped attending etiquette classes. She'll start learning from you and Grandma. I'm sure both of you will be

outstanding guidance."

After pondering for a bit, Emily said, "There's no problem. Don't worry. I'll do my best to protect Kendall. I'm going

to be a grandmother. Haha! I'm so happy. Dylan, let me go somewhere else and laugh for a bit."

She had started bursting into laughter before she even hung up the call. Dylan was startled for a moment before

putting on a smile. He could hear that his mother was truly ecstatic.

…

Meanwhile, Kelly arrived at the main store of L.E. Boutique. Before her arrival, she had called Laura and told her to

wait in the store as she had to see her.

When the store manager saw Kelly, she went over and greeted her with a smile. "Ms. Parker."

Kelly responded with a smile and said, "I have an appointment with your president."

"President Evans is upstairs. Please come with me, Ms. Parker."

The store manager then led the way for Kelly and headed straight to the third floor. After knocking on the door to

Laura's office, she invited Kelly in. Then, she poured a cup of water for Kelly before leaving the office.

When the door was closed, Laura rose from the chair and asked Kelly to sit on the couch. After she was seated, she

cut to the chase by asking, "Is there anything urgent?"

"Laura, regarding the matter I'd talked about before, have you made a decision?"

Laura played dumb. "What matter are you talking about?"

Kelly frowned and explained, "Laura, what's the point of you playing dumb with me? Do you think I'm a fool? You

keep telling me what to do behind the scenes. Do you think if the matter is exposed, I'll take all the blame while

you'll be able to stay out of it?"

Laura's face fell. "What are you talking about, Kelly? What did I tell you to do? Stop accusing me of anything that

I've never done. I'm not Kendall, so I won't let you oppress me as you, please. Oh, as far as I'm concerned, you're

not even able to plot against Kendall now. Instead, you're on the losing side."
