Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 44

Chapter 44

Mrs. Zucker piped up with a smile, "She's probably going to ask you to hurry up and go over to finalize the proposal."

Rosemi thought the same. She was in an excellent mood, so she decided to answer Charlotte's call right in front of everyone, and she even put her phone on speaker mode.

"Mrs. Parker," Rosemi greeted with a smile. "Have you had your dinner?"

"Yes, I have. What about you, Mrs. Whittle?"

"Me too. I'm in the middle of a card game, actually. By the way, Mrs. Parker, has your family discussed the matter I brought up to you this morning? Once you let me know, I'll be able to make all the arrangements."

Charlotte laughed and said, "I'm so sorry, Mrs. Parker, but I was too busy today and forgot all about it. I just recalled it a moment ago so I immediately decided to return your call. Adam says that Kendall just returned to us, so he can't bear to part with her so soon. We've decided to put marriage aside for now."

Right from the start, Charlotte disapproved of Kendall marrying Jackson.

And after today, she was even more opposed to it.

Jackson was too fake.

"Mrs. Parker?"

Rosemi thought she heard it wrong.

The Parkers were declining their offer of marriage? Was Kendall not madly in love with Jackson after falling in love at first sight with him?

"Mrs. Parker, have you asked your daughter's opinion? This is what you and your husband think, right? You don't think that our family is as good as the Colemans."

Rosemi felt humiliated by the way her friends were looking at her.

She picked up the phone and took it off speaker mode before walking off and saying, "Mrs. Parker, as Kendall's mother, I'm sure you're aware of how she feels about my son. Is this really what she wants? She's madly in love with him, so much so that she even ran to the Colemans and declined their offer of marriage in person."


Charlotte replied with a smile, "Mrs. Whittle, this is what Kendall wants as well. I've asked her multiple times, and she says that she doesn't want to marry Jackson. She's not interested in romance right now, and she wants to focus on her career. Mrs. Parker, you know how much I owe Kendall, so no matter what she does, I will always respect her choice."

"I do apologize, Mrs. Whittle."

"This is what Kendall wants?"

Rosemi did not believe that at all.

However, Charlotte was not trying to convince her anyway. "Mrs. Whittle, I heard some card sounds earlier, so you're probably in the middle of a card game, right? I won't keep you then. Let's have a meal together some time. It'll be my treat."

"Alright."

Charlotte did not want to go any further, so Rosemi could not continue pressing her.

After hanging up the call, Rosemi's expression was as dark as night.

She turned to her friends and said, "Let's stop for today. I'll invite you all over again when I find the time."

Then, Rosemi called the butler over to see the women off.

The other women had heard what Charlotte said earlier.

They were well aware that Rosemi was in a poor mood right now, so they did not outstay their welcome.

"Mrs. Zucker, don't say anything about what you heard just now."

Rosemi suddenly addressed them again. "Only the four of you know what happened, so if word gets out, I know that it's from one of you. I don't wish to end my friendship with any one of you."

All the women hurriedly promised to not speak a single word about the Parkers rejecting the Whittles' offer of marriage.

After giving them a good warning, Rosemi rushed upstairs.

When she got to her son's room, she barged right in without even knocking.

Jackson had just come out of the bathroom, and he was still topless. He jumped in fright when his mother came in and he hurriedly wrapped his arms around his chest. "Mom, why did you come in without knocking first?"

"You're my son. I bathed you when you were little, so what's there to be shy about? Jackson, I'm so mad right now."

Rosemi went over to the couch and sat down angrily.

"What's wrong, Mom? Who made you angry? Tell me, and I'll teach them a lesson."

Jackson pulled on a top before walking over and asking in concern, "Did you lose all the money you won? It's just a few thousand. I'll transfer some money over to you, and tomorrow, you'll be able to make them lose everything."

"It's not about money. Jackson, Mrs. Whittle called me just now and said that Kendall doesn't want to marry you. They rejected our family's marriage proposal."

Rosemi was infuriated. "Does Kendall think she's some kind of goddess or the only woman left in this world? If she weren't the actual daughter of the Parker Family who would be inheriting the family fortune, she wouldn't even be fit to lick your shoes. How dare she look down on you?"

"Oh, that."

Jackson knew about it already.
