Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 48

Dylan stared at her in silence, then he flicked her forehead twice. "Ow!" She pouted due to the pain,

and he felt a lot better inside. Under his guidance, Kendall finally took the right path home.

"You have one week. If you still can't remember the way home…" Dylan did not finish the sentence, but

Kendall could see that he would punish her if she failed her task.

"Okay. I'll try my best to remember the way home." One week. That's enough time to remember the

way home. I think.

Dylan said nothing, and Kendall had no idea what to say. He saw how indifferent she was when

Jackson was chased by the dogs just now. She was delighted, in fact. I wonder what he thinks about

that? Does he think I'm a heartless woman? I used to love Jackson a lot. "Dylan." He did not ask, but

she wanted to tell him. She did not want him to think of her as a cruel woman. "Do you think I was too

cruel on Jackson?"

"Nope. In fact, I think you were too kind." Dylan's answer was surprising.

Huh.

"If you want to get back at someone, take everything he has. Destroy his family. Make him homeless.

Make sure he's humiliated."

"I see I'm still too kind." At least I'm not as cruel as you are.

"Why do you hate him so much, Kendall? I think you started hating him right after you refused my

proposal." Ever since she woke up after cutting herself, there was something mysterious about her. He

had looked into her past, but she was still a mystery to him. He was used to being in total control, and

the fact he did not know a big part of her grated him. He wanted her to be as innocent as she could be

so he could do anything he wanted to her.

"Sorry, Dylan, but I can't tell you yet. I'll talk when the time is right." They were still learning how to get

along, and their love did not run deep. He might think she was crazy if she told him everything now.

Rebirth was something straight out of a fantasy . There was no way she could tell him this was

her second life. Kendall must come up with a logical story for him to believe her.

Dylan did not press her for answers. Everyone had their own secrets, and he respected her right to

privacy.

They saw Vivian standing right outside before they even got back to their place. She was pacing back

and forth, looking anxious. When she looked up and saw them, Vivian wanted to come up to them, but

she stopped and waited for them instead. When they came near, she greeted Dylan, "Hello, Master

Dylan." She then gave Kendall a look of admonishment.

Dylan asked coldly, "What does Grandma want this time?"

"Mrs. Coleman wants to see Miss Parker."

Kendall pointed at herself. Mrs. Coleman wants to see me at this hour? She realized why right away.

Tilly might have heard about how she asked Mr. Miller to send the dogs after Jackson. Tilly probably

knew what everyone was doing in the household, barring Dylan. She only ignored them by choice. "I'll

see her once I send Dylan in." She would never refuse a summon from Tilly.

But Dylan refused on her behalf. "Tell Grandma I allowed it. Push me inside, Kendall."

Kendall was surprised he would refuse Tilly's summon for her. She paused for a moment and quickly

said, "Yes." She pushed him inside, but before that, she looked at Vivian for a moment.

Vivian would not take her by force. She saw the two of them off into the house.

A few minutes later.

"So Dylan allowed it, huh?" Tilly dragged out the last part of the sentence.

Emily looked at her. "Mom, we can't let her do this. She sent the dogs after an innocent man. We aren't

scared of anyone, but we can't allow her to hurt someone just because she can."

Tilly did not even look at her. She said, "Dylan allowed it, so even if something happens, he'll be able to

take care of it. It's late. Go back to sleep. I'm getting really sleepy too. I'm not as young as I used to be.

Can't stay up too late." She stood up.

Emily stood up as well. She held Tilly, and Tilly did not refuse her help. Tilly is staying out of this, I

guess. Emily was angry that Kendall managed to influence her son, but she would never argue with

Tilly about that. She went back to her own room after sending Tilly to hers. Her husband was reading a

magazine, much to her annoyance. She snatched it away and hurled it at him.

"What's wrong, honey?" Fergus sat up and put the magazine on the nightstand. "Did someone get on

your nerves? Tell me all about it. I'll teach them a lesson."

"Okay. Then go to Dylan's place and kick that b*tch out of the mansion. She convinced our son to send

the dogs after an innocent man. Dylan's reputation is bordering on infamy, and now she just pushed it

further back."

Yeah. Dylan's infamous. "Oh, that? Dylan allowed it. Nothing you can do about that. We have no right

to tell him what he should do. Dad and Mom raised him, not us. He only respects us as his parents, but

he would never let us order him around. Honestly, honey, you should stop worrying so much. It'll only

make you unhappy." Fergus sat his wife down and dissuaded her. "Trust Dylan. He's the family head,

and he'll never do anything to hurt the family. No matter what happens to his relationship with Kendall,

that's his personal business, not ours. All we can do is observe."

"'Won't hurt the family' my foot! He sent the dogs after Jackson like how Kendall asked him to! He just

antagonized the whole Whittle family. We aren't friends with the Whittles, but we aren't enemies either.

Now he just made an enemy out of them," she grumbled. "Did something go wrong with that bumpkin?

Jackson used to be her whole world. She came to us and cut herself just so she did not have to marry

Dylan. Now, she did a one eighty and sent the dogs after Jackson? I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't

seen the surveillance footage."

"Alright, calm down. Get some sleep. I'll take you to our island tomorrow. Let's wind down there for a

few days. We can go surfing, fishing, and sightseeing. We'll do whatever you want."

Emily complained, "I'm not being unreasonable, you know. I'm just worried for our son."

"I know you aren't. Our kids are all brilliant, you know? We don't have to worry about them."

The thought of her sons and daughter made Emily swell with pride.
