Chapter 92
"You really don't know how to hold a conversation, Dylan."
His solemn demeanor always brought an end to whatever conversation he was in.
When he heard that, he simply let out a deep hum and flung away her arms, which were wrapped around his. He then moved away, as if trying to keep a distance from her.
But he still clutched the bouquet of flowers tightly.
Kendall was well aware of his arrogance. She decided to ignore him after a while, and she took out the circuit board sketches in her bag and began to study them.
She wanted to learn how to read them as fast as possible.
Throughout, they didn't say anything to each other. There was complete silence in the car.
Both the bodyguard who was driving and Ronnie were nervous. They were afraid Kendall would enrage Dylan. If that happened, they would be the unfortunate ones.
Fortunately, they reached the Dynasty Hotel in no time.
This seven-star hotel in Orapolis was magnificent.
Dylan's fleet of cars halted in front of the hotel's entrance.
Even before Kendall got out of the car, she noticed a young man trotting toward her and politely opening the car door.
"Thank you," she said, while getting out of the car.
It's no surprise that this is rated seven stars; even their service is excellent! The man who opened the car door is also attractive. He resembles Dylan in some ways.
Yoseph, on the other hand, was stunned the moment he saw Kendall.
He thought the person coming out would be his brother, and he did not expect it to be an unknown woman instead.
Kendall was now living in the Coleman Mansion but due to her hectic schedule, she rarely walked around it. Yoseph was also busy, so they hadn't seen each other yet.
"Who are you?"
"Kendall Parker," Dylan answered on her behalf.
After knowing her name, Yoseph realized this woman was Dylan's caretaker. It appeared that she had been taking care of Dylan well since she even followed him outside.
Yoseph had already preconceived her as Dylan's caretaker.
At the same time. Dylan was about to get out of the car as well. Both of them wanted to help him.
But Dylan stopped them and got out of the car himself.
After sitting on the wheelchair, he instructed Yoseph, "Take the bouquet of flowers out, Yoseph."
Flowers?
Yoseph looked into the car, and there was indeed a bouquet there.
While getting into the car to take the bouquet, he curiously asked, "Who gave you this bouquet, Dylan?"
"Your sister-in-law," Kendall answered.
She mistook Yoseph for the valet parking attendant, but he turned out to be her brother-in-law.
Yoseph was the Coleman Family's second young master and Dylan's biological younger brother.
Kendall had a basic understanding of the Colemans in her head. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
"I am talking to my brother. It's not for you to interrupt."
Yoseph sternly warned her. He had been displeased with her trying to kill herself previously just to reject the marriage. If Dylan hadn't asked him to put the matter aside, Yoseph would have pushed her into a corner and made her regret her actions.
Kendall was taken aback by his impolite demeanor. Her brother-in-law appeared to be dissatisfied with her.
"Yoseph."
Dylan called out, his brows furrowed. He wasn't pleased with Yoseph's treatment of Kendall either. "Regardless of what happened in the past, you have to respect her now."
"Dylan, we don't need to respect such a woman. She doesn't know what respect is!"
"I am your sister-in-law, so I am one of your elders. You must respect me."
Yoseph was dumbfounded upon hearing that.
Seeing that Dylan did not refute that, Yoseph dazedly asked, "What is this about, Dylan? Though I have not been going home recently, I consider myself to be quite updated! What else did I miss?"
"She's right."
Dylan then gestured for Kendall to push him into the hotel, the bouquet of flowers still clutched tightly in his hands.
This was his first time receiving roses in his thirty-one years of life.
And it was the first time he thought roses were lovely.
Yoseph, on the other hand, turned around and looked at the retreating figures, and he grabbed
Ronnie's arm.
"Ronnie, you are with my brother all the time. Tell me what happened. When did Kendall Parker become my sister-in-law?"
"Young Master Yoseph, that is Young Master Dylan's matter and we cannot reveal anything. Please ask him yourself if you really want to know what happened."
Knowing that Dylan had strict rules, Yoseph did not continue putting Ronnie in a fix.
After a few minutes, all of them were in the presidential suite at the top floor of the hotel. They were sitting by the dining table and the food had been served.
"Does the family know about this, Dylan?"
"This is my personal matter. I will tell them if I want to, and vice versa."
That almost choked Yoseph.
Dylan was now the Coleman Family's leader, and he was always cold and ruthless. No one could say anything about what he had decided.
Even their grandmother would not question his authority in the family.
"But it is such an important matter…"
Yoseph swallowed the rest of his words after noticing his brother's cold stare.
Kendall, on the other hand, was happily enjoying her food.
That totally stumped Yoseph.
Neither of them explained the entire matter to him, leaving him with a burning curiosity about what had happened. It was such an awful feeling.
…
In the meantime, Kelly managed to locate Jackson's ward in Orapolis General Hospital based on the information he gave.
"What happened to you, Jackson?" she asked the moment she entered the ward.
Her heart ached for him when she saw his bandaged arm. While touching him, she inquired, "Was Kendall the one who did this? She has always been rough! It has been more than a year since she returned but she still can't change her violent ways. She can never be a proper young lady!"
"It wasn't her."
Jackson had his dislocated arm treated. As he did not want his parents to know about his injury, he chose to be admitted to the hospital and only told Kelly about this.
"Who did this to you, then? Tell me and I will exact vengeance for you! How dare anyone touch my man? Are they tired of living?"
Looking at Kelly's rage and her compassion for him, Jackson could feel his mood improve.
Why did he care if Kendall didn't like him? Kelly was still with him.
In fact, Kelly was the person he loved from the start.
"Kelly, please stop asking. I was the one who offended someone and was immediately taught a lesson. It is I who should be blamed."
He didn't dare to tell her how he had taken advantage of Kendall for fear of making Kelly jealous.
Kelly's expression changed, but she quickly schooled her expression and asked with concern, "Are you frustrated with your company's matter, Jackson? That's why you unintentionally offended someone?"
Only a few people in Orapolis dared to teach Jackson a lesson on the spot.
"It is indeed frustrating. Just as I thought, Kendall refused to lend me a hand. She has completely given up on me this time."
There was a slight tinge of disappointment in his last few words.
Kelly was a smart lady and of course, she sensed Jackson's disappointment. She blinked and her gaze flickered with jealousy, but she kept her cool and said, "You only want her to speak for your behalf in front of Dylan, yet she refused such a simple request? Her feelings for you are really shallow, huh?"
Jackson remained silent to that.
"Don't worry, Jackson," Kelly said gently as she held his hand. I'll take care of everything. Your top priority right now is to get plenty of rest."
"You are so good to me, Kelly."
Jackson was moved.
"My love for you is genuine, unlike Kendall's fleeting passion."
Jackson's expression immediately darkened at the mention of Kendall.
In comparison, Kelly was indeed the better fit for him.
Neither of them explained the entire matter to him, leaving him with a burning curiosity about what had happened. It was such an awful feeling.
