Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 516

Chapter 516

Had I known that the baby was mine, she wouldn't have died…

Meanwhile, Kendall ran out of Dylan's place by herself aimlessly. Everyone who saw her greeted her, but she sprinted in a flurry and brushed past them. Some eagle-eyed ones even noticed the tear streaks on her face.

Young Master Dylan and Young Mistress Kendall fought!

This was the only possibility that ran through everyone's mind, especially now that Tilly no longer provoked Kendall anymore despite the Coleman hierarchy. This was because Tilly was worried that Dylan would go on a food strike again had she given her a hard time. Therefore, the only person who could cause their young mistress to tear up was their young master.

Kendall disregarded all this and ran off mindlessly. In the end, she found herself lost, but she did not care about that. She was exhausted, so she noticed a pavilion in front of her and walked over to it. The surroundings were peaceful and there was no one else there other than her.

It was the perfect spot for her to get some time to herself. As such, she sat before the stone table and stared mindlessly afar.

In the meantime, the news of Dylan and Kendall's fight spread around the Coleman Mansion, highlighting that she ran off in tears while he did not go after her.

The first one who rushed over to Dylan's place was Emily. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she

saw Amos and asked, "Where's Dylan?"

Amos was not aware of what happened as the couple had been enjoying themselves on the swing in the backyard, being affectionate with each other. All of a sudden, Kendall rushed off in tears, and when he received word of that, he found that she was already gone from the backyard.

Meanwhile, Dylan stood in the same spot with a sorrowful visage, which shocked Amos to his core. What's going in with these two again?!

"Young Master Dylan's in the backyard and he told us to leave him alone. He wants some quiet time." There was worry written across his face.

Emily expressed her concern, "What happened between them? They're usually such a loving and close couple, so why did they suddenly disagree? Were you unaware of all that?"

Amos replied with a guilty look, "Young Master Dylan was keeping Young Mistress Kendall company in the backyard as they enjoyed themselves on the swing set. He didn't want us around, so we have no idea what happened there."

"Where's Kendall? Didn't you send some men to go after her?"

"I have." Kendall was such an important person to Dylan, so it was imperative to locate her. Otherwise, he would be shattered to lose her.

Without Kendall, Dylan was more terrifying than ever, and it pained Amos to see him in such a state. I hope his cycle of misery doesn't happen again. Young Master Dylan is someone who would give

everything they have to the person he loves, and that is precisely Young Mistress Kendall. She is his world.

"Gosh, these two are a handful. I'll head over to the backyard to check on Dylan." Emily turned around and headed there after saying that.

Amos did not stop her as she was Dylan's mother after all. Despite how upset Dylan was, he would never hurt his mother.

Emily had just walked toward the backyard when Yoseph arrived with the other siblings.

He knew that his mother had gone to check on Dylan, so he turned to the other siblings and said, "Let's try to locate Kendall. Dylan might not want to talk about it, so we would have to ask Kendall for the reason. Ally, once you locate Kendall, have a chat with her. You guys normally share your troubles," Yoseph instructed Alice, who affirmed in response.

At that moment, Amos received a phone call from the security guards, and he was told that Amelia had arrived.

"Ms. Taylor's here? Show her inside quickly! She came at the perfect timing!" As soon as he heard that she was here, he reacted as if he had encountered a lifesaver. After all, she was Kendall's best friend.

In the backyard, Emily finally located Dylan, who was currently seated on the swing. I could still feel her here…

He stroked the swing gently with a sorrowful look, and Emily was shocked to see that. She hastily

came forward and grabbed his hand on the swing before questioning, "Dylan, you're scaring me. What happened? What's going on between you and Kendall?"

He just picked up Kendall from Wino City two days ago, so what's the fuss now?!

"Mom!" Dylan called out for Emily in a low voice and his eyes were red-rimmed. The sorrow in his countenance was evident.

"Dylan, talk to me. What happened?"

"Mom! I… You've lost a granddaughter!"

She yelped and asked in shock, "Did Kendall discover that she was pregnant but miscarried?"

He shook his head and did not know how to explain things to her. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The only thing clear to him right now was that he had been unaware of the existence of his daughter as well as the grievances that Kendall and her baby had to go through. All he knew was that he watched both of them die… right before his eyes.

His grandma's speculative words suddenly reverberated in his mind. "You're just repaying the debt you owed in the past life."

This is the debt I owe Kendall and the baby!

"Not pregnant? Then, does she have issues conceiving? Or do you have fertility issues because of your condition?" Emily asked frantically, "Dylan, explain it to me now. I'm not smart. I don't know what's

going on in your head!"

"Mom, I'm so lost right now. Can you stop asking me questions? From now on, you should stop making life tough on Kendall. Just leave me alone, Mom, and tell the others to go. Kendall's the only exception if she wishes to see me."

He knew Kendall must have blamed him, though it was not his fault. Their baby's death was why she could not face him now.

Though Emily was frantic with worry, her son's look of despair stopped her from pursuing the matter. Instead, she made a promise. "Kendall's your wife and my daughter-in-law. I promise I won't make life tough for her. You won't end up caught in between the two of us."

Subsequently, she walked off with a sigh and left Dylan to himself. However, she did not walk off too far when she bumped into her husband, who was helping her mother-in-law over.

Both parties stopped in their tracks for a moment before Emily walked forward.

"What's going on?" Tilly asked casually as her sight went past her daughter-in-law and focused on her grandson on the swing.

Before Emily could say a word, tears started streaming down her face. As a mother, it was tormenting for her to see her son in such pain; the pain she felt surpassed what Dylan felt.

"What's going on, Emily? Why are you crying?!" Tilly was frantic, so her tone of voice was harsher than usual.

Emily wiped off her tears and replied with a sob, "Mom, Dylan didn't make things clear, so I'm not too sure what happened exactly. Dylan said that I lost a granddaughter, and he just looks awfully sad. As soon as he saw me, he called out 'Mom' before tearing up."

Dylan was a strapping male who barely cried, so he must have experienced immense pain to have behaved like this.

"Did Kendall have a miscarriage?" Tilly had the same thought as Emily and her expression darkened. Although she was blessed with many children and grandchildren, it was human nature to yearn for more; she wanted lots of great-grandchildren as well. In her heart, she hoped fervently that Kendall would get pregnant as soon as possible and give her a great-grandchild. Now that she was told that she lost a great-granddaughter, she felt her world spin out of control and nearly fainted.

"Dylan said no. I asked him whether there was something wrong with Kendall or him, but he refused to say a thing. He merely pleaded with me to stop making life tough for Kendall."

At that point, Tilly recollected herself and glanced at her grandson on the swing once again. After some time, she finally mentioned, "Leave Dylan alone for now. He's stoic and would never get beaten so easily. Once he calms down, and if he wants to talk about it, he will let us know on his own accord. If he doesn't tell us anything, then clearly, he doesn't want to talk about it. I think we should just end it here."
