Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 124

Kendall felt the same way too. "Yes. He can be like that sometimes."

"Young Master Dylan prefers simplicity and elegance. Before you moved in, there were no flowers and

plants here as you know. Look at the area right now; it's way different from when you just moved in,

right? You enjoy tending to flowers and plants, so he instructed me to buy all these flowers while he

also moved some from the conservatory, all for the sake of making you happy."

"Well… Gosh! I've left something in the car! I forgot to take them with me." Kendall suddenly recalled

the clothes and necktie that she had bought for Dylan.

Amos instantly helped her contact the driver and instructed him to bring the items she had left in the car

for her. She took the bags from the driver and handed the pair of shears to Amos before saying, "Mr.

Miller, I'll head inside and coax him now."

At that sight, Amos was full of smiles. "Alright then, Young Mistress Kendall. Go on, he should be in the

study room right now." Whenever Dylan was upset, he usually stayed in his study room.

As for Kendall, she ran into the house and indeed, she could not find Dylan anywhere on the first floor

or in her room. Subsequently, she headed to the second floor.

Other than her first day of moving into this house, she had barely set foot on the second floor. After

moving in, she had mainly gone about her daily life on the first floor.

The study room was a restricted area and Kendall was well aware of that from the way Dylan had glued

a note on the door with the words, 'Study room, entry upon authorization'.

She came to the entrance of the room and lifted her hand to knock on the door.

'Go away!" His cold voice rang out.

"Dylan, it's me."

Kendall called out again, "Dylan, can I come in?"

Meanwhile, he remained silent as he sat in front of his desk with a book in his hand, albeit not being

able to concentrate on it.

"Dylan, I'll assume from your silence that you've agreed."

"I'm pushing the door open to come in now, Dylan."

Triggered by Kendall's choice of words, Dylan responded snappily, "How else are you going to come in

if you don't push open the door? Can you walk through walls?"

Kendall didn't know what to say as she thought, What do I even say now? She decided to tolerate him

seeing how he was still in his snappy mood.

Subsequently, she pushed open the door and entered the room.

Dylan instantly pretended to be engrossed in his book as soon as she stepped in. There was also an

indifferent look on his handsome face as his thin lips were pursed tightly. He exuded a strong aura of

rejection that clearly indicated that visitors were not welcome.

"Dylan," Kendall greeted him with a sweet smile on her face.

He looked at her and coldly responded, "What do you have to say? Just be quick about it. If you have

nothing to say, then the door's that way." His words were considered 'kind' as he no longer told her to

get lost.

"Dylan, I've bought you a new necktie. Do you wanna see it?"

Meanwhile, a cold Dylan replied while still pursing his lips, "I've got plenty of neckties."

"I'm aware of that and I know this would be just another necktie in your collection. But this is a gift from

me—your wife. Aren't you happy that your wife gifted you a necktie?"

He scoffed coldly.

"I bought you some new clothes too."

"My clothes are all custom-made and I don't need you to buy them."

"I've bought them, though. So, does that mean you don't want them? 'Cause if you don't, then I'll have

to give them to my brother; he's about the same build as you. Although he's not as handsome as you,

with great attire, surely he would be completely transformed if he put this on. After all, one is usually

judged by what they wear. I'm sure that he would be able to dazzle the ladies with this handsome fit

and soon enough, I'll have a sister-in-law!"

At that point, Dylan was stunned by her words as he responded, "Kendall, you're not only shameless,

but also very talkative."

He slammed his book onto the desk; there was a loud bang as the sound caused Kendall to cower

slightly.

With a tone as cold as winter, he reached out his hand and instructed, "Give it to me."

Kendall hurriedly handed over the newly bought clothes and necktie to him. She also moved closer and

thoughtfully asked, "Dylan, should I help you with it? I would like to know whether it's a right fit for you."

However, he remained silent. Subsequently, she took the clothes from his hand and helped him put

them on before assisting him up. She spoke up with a pleased look, "Dylan, the clothes fit very well.

I've got great taste indeed." Then, she took out the necktie that she had just bought and helped him

with it.

As for Dylan, he allowed her free reign despite the tense look on his face.

"My husband's so good-looking."

Right this moment, Kendall clearly showcased her shameless personality as she wrapped her arms

around his neck and planted a kiss on his thin lips. After the kiss, she turned to target his face and left a

trail of saliva all over his face before letting go of him with a satisfied look.

He touched his face and sneered in disgust. "You're just like a puppy; I have your saliva all over my

face."

Without a beat, he pulled her back into his arms as he tightened his grip on her waist with one hand

while holding the back of her head firmly with the other hand. Then, his thin lips approached her sweet-

smelling lips and he plundered dominantly as he gave her a passionate kiss.

After the exchange, Kendall complimented, "Not so bad, Dylan." She had assumed that a guy as stoic

as him would not possess such romantic and tactical skills.

Dylan blushed slightly and pushed her aside. "You've groped me so many times, so I came up with this

from those experiences."

Kendall thought, This man's too prideful.

"The weather is getting hotter." Dylan took a seat as he mentioned it calmly.

He lifted his hand and took off the clothes he was wearing as it was a suit that Kendall had bought.

Although he usually wore a suit in his office, he usually was dressed casually at home.

She was quite perceptive as she promised. "I'll buy you some lighter clothes for summer next time."

"I've got plenty of clothes."

"Yes, I know that. You've got plenty of clothes, but none of them are from me. I love buying clothes for

my man."

Finally, he could not come up with any more excuse to rebuke her words.

"Dylan." Kendall put aside the clothes and brazenly snuggled into his arms.

At first, he pushed her aside as he resisted her advances but shortly after that, he allowed her to

snuggle in his arms as she took a seat with him on the chair.

This feels so comforting and secure, she thought as she stayed cozy in his tight chest. He held her with

one hand and lightly played with her hair with the other.

"Dylan, I'm fine with not having pets if you don't like furry animals. You don't have to force yourself to

accept it. I was too selfish before as I only cared about myself without considering your feelings. You

did mention previously that you disliked furry animals."

Meanwhile, Dylan remained silent. It was true that he was not fond of pets but she liked them. He really

wanted to satisfy her, but he found it quite hard to convince himself.

"I went to the Pet Palace with Alice earlier and she told me that I could pay a visit anytime I wanted. I'm

allowed to feed the little animals and play with them, so that would satisfy my wish to have a pet. You

don't have to give in to me."

Kendall lifted her head and looked at his chin as she lifted her hand to stroke it. "Hey, Dylan, you've got

some stubble!"

In reaction to her words, Dylan scowled. "Why can't a man like me have his stubble?!"

He shaved frequently and that was how he maintained a clean-shaven face daily.

She cheekily stuck her tongue out. "That's not what I meant. I just thought that you look dashing

everyday without any facial hair, so I thought you didn't grow any."

He pinched her lips and replied, "You're such a sweet-talker." Her words are indeed very sweet.

"I'm telling the truth. My husband's the most handsome man on earth. I love my husband the most and

the love I harbor for my husband is—"

"That's enough." Suddenly, Dylan stopped her just as she was about to go on and on.

Meanwhile, Kendall smiled gleefully. Her laughter caused his eyes to darken significantly as he could

not resist her anymore. He turned her over to face him as he leaned in and held her against his desk;

he lowered his head once again to kiss her soft lips while remaining deep in embrace.

Just as she was about to lose her breath, he finally detached from her lips and released her. He gently

stroked her face with his slender, long fingers. With a tender look in his eyes, Dylan realized that he

had fallen head over heels for her.
