Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 512

Kendall walked out of the Mendelson Residence with mixed emotions. As soon as Dylan saw her, he instantly pushed open the car door and got out. He did not even need his wheelchair as he strode over to her.

"Darling." She snuggled into his arms.

He reciprocated the hug without any words. He knew that she tended to refer to him as 'darling' whenever she was in a bad mood. Is she upset after admonishing Frank? He had wild thoughts running through his mind, but he did not inquire further as he knew that she would talk about it if she wanted to.

After a moment, Kendall lifted her head from his embrace and told him, "Darling, let's head home."

"Okay, let's go." Dylan bent down and carried her into his arms. At that, she hastily wrapped her arms around his neck.

The car was just a few steps away, so he managed that fine. He placed her into the car before getting in after that. Since the bodyguards were well-trained, they ascended their cars respectively and the car entourage left the Mendelson Residence in a single file two minutes later.

After some time, Kendall piped up, "Darling, Amelia may have fallen in love with Frank."

Stunned at first, Dylan soon realized that it was reasonable. After all, if he disregarded his long- standing feud with Frank, Frank was an impressive man with good looks. It would be hard for one to resist him once the person shared their time.

Furthermore, Amelia was practically glued to Frank's side daily and she had been rejected by Ronnie after she confessed her feelings to him, so it was likely that she would have redirected her feelings toward Frank after the rejection.

"Are you upset because Amelia has fallen in love with Frank?"

"Yes, darling. I didn't manage to stand up for you because Amy was very protective of him."

Subsequently, Kendall burrowed herself deeper into Dylan's arms and added, "It's all my fault that Amelia is stuck by Frank's side, so I didn't take any action against him for her sake. Instead, he slapped himself as punishment."

Dylan held her tighter and coaxed, "Kendall, I'm happy enough that you had the intention to stand up for me. It's fine that you didn't end up taking any action. Plus, it'd pain me to find out that you hurt your hands after beating him up. Did Frank slap himself, though?"

"Yes, he was quite ruthless toward himself and he delivered some strong blows; his face swelled up after several strikes. On top of that, I saw how upset Amelia was, so I quickly left the place with Ronnie and the others to prevent him from continuing his self-harm. I didn't want her to be tormented any further…

Darling, do you think Amelia and Frank will end up together? Frank is too fixated on his ways. I've noticed that the way she regards him is different from how she was with Ronnie. She was merely impressed by Ronnie but didn't fall for him. After she had professed her love for him and was rejected, it only took her two days to get over it."

Dylan remained silent for a moment before replying, "It depends on whether Frank can move on. If he has, then there is a possibility that Ms. Taylor could succeed. Over these years, no woman has been by Frank's side. Other than him being exceptionally open toward you, Ms. Taylor's the only woman he interacted the most with. If he was unable to tolerate her, then there was no way he would've invited her over every single day."

Kendall heaved a sigh at that. "I would've never expected that Amy would fall for Frank, though. I hope that he can move on and accept her so that things won't end up being disastrous for both parties."

"Kendall, everyone has their path when it comes to love. Perhaps Ms. Taylor is the right one for him. Initially, things might be tough, but if she's able to win his affection, she will end up leading a blissful life in the future. Frank and I don't see eye to eye because we're too similar in our ways. We would be fine leading our own lives if we hadn't fallen for someone, but once we had, that person would be our rightful one in this lifetime. We wouldn't hesitate to give everything to the apple of our eye. Frank is just… His feelings for you might not be romantic, but it's his obsession with your baby girl."

Dylan was unsure of the identity of the baby's parents in Kendall's dream. After all, it was a dream, and he was unable to do anything but watch as a bystander.

After considering his words, she found that he made a lot of sense. Frank had only approached her from the start because of her child and his obsession with the baby, not her. I'm sure that my baby won't appear in our lives in this lifetime again.

Indeed, Dylan was on point with his analysis of Frank.

Meanwhile, Frank locked himself in his room and was splayed on his bed as he stared mindlessly at

the ceiling. Both of his cheeks were swollen and red, but he did not care at all.

Baby girl, he apologized in his mind. Baby girl, Daddy's sorry for not being able to win Mommy back. Without Mommy by my side, there is no way you would be able to come back to me.

As he was lost in his thoughts, he fell asleep halfway. Perhaps it was because of his constant saudade for his baby girl; as soon as he fell asleep, the familiar dream was starting to replay in his head like a broken film reel.

In the dream, he was currently inside the presidential suite of a five-star hotel in Orapolis at night. As soon as he walked through the front door, he heard someone moan inside the bedroom.

Frowning, he walked further into the room to find Kendall on the bed. Her cheeks were flushed, and she appeared to be in a delirious state; it was evident that she had been drugged. She moaned out of discomfort and instinctively tugged at her clothes with both hands.

From a bird's-eye view, Frank saw himself standing by the bedside and observing Kendall, who was clearly in distress. After a brief moment, he sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to stroke her face. She was stunning, both in the dream and in real life, and he was unable to disregard her beauty.

As soon as he touched her face, she grasped his hand like she had found a lifeline and took it to her face before repeatedly nuzzling it.

Frank had heard of how one would behave after being drugged, and their skin would be scorching hot. If one even touched the drugged person, they would assume that the other party's hand was icy-cold and instinctively reach out to grab at it to bring their temperature down.

"It's hot…" Kendall muttered to herself.

He allowed her to grab his hand and nuzzle it against her face. "What's your name?" he asked in a low voice. "Who sent you to my room?"

"It's hot…" She was in a delirious state and was not lucid enough to answer his question at all. At that moment, all she wanted was to grab the ice to cool off!

Subsequently, he extricated his hand and took out his cell phone to place a call to his men to investigate why she was in his room. Next, he glanced at Kendall, who was clearly in affliction. She wriggled from time to time out of distress with her stunning face and great figure, looking fairly seductive. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Although Frank was generally one with exceptional self-control, he was surprised to find that his self- control was dissipating gradually upon seeing her state. He placed his palm on her face once again, but this time, he held her head in place and slowly lowered his head. He had barely brushed his lips against hers when he shivered from the sensation.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Suddenly, his cell phone went off.

His men had found out the truth—the woman in his room was sent to his room by mistake. She was not intended for him but was supposed to be sent to an old man named Reill.

"Master, we've also received some great news that you'd be happy to hear. Your opponent, Master Dylan, attended a corporate dinner and was targeted. The Coleman Family's bodyguards are currently

sending him over to Dynasty Hotel as swiftly as they can."

This is such a coincidence! At that, Frank instantly released Kendall.
