Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 231

Chapter 230

Instead of leaving Henry in the lurch, Kendall remembered to ask Ronnie to send him back as well. She trotted over, opened the car door, and got into Dylan's car. Before Dylan could ask her anything, she threw herself into his arms, swung her fist, and pounded his shoulder. She asked aggrievedly, "Master Dylan, why weren't you here until now?"

Dylan held her gently in his arms while letting her vent her emotions. After she finished venting her grievances, he asked in a gentle voice, "What happened?"

"I ran into a lunatic."

"Did Frank come to you?"

Kendall instantly looked up at him. "Dylan, did you know that he'd come to me?" She didn't even call him Master Dylan, which showed how angry she was at this very moment.

Dylan explained, "I predicted that he'd find an opportunity to approach you, but I didn't expect him to block your way here." He had only arranged for Carlos and Blake to protect her in secret before going out. Of course, however, he couldn't let her know about it because she didn't like to be followed. He continued honestly, "Frank and I are enemies. After the announcement of our marriage, he'd certainly take action, no matter whether it was because of his special regard for you or because of the enmity between us." It was just that he didn't expect Frank to take action so soon by coming to her early in the morning.

Kendall's eyes reddened. Suddenly, she turned around, opened the car door, and stepped out of the car. She felt really aggrieved while being pestered by Frank just now. On the other hand, Dylan had figured that Frank would come after her, but instead of catching up to her sooner to lend her a helping hand, he let her deal with Frank, that lunatic, alone. If Frank were to get crazy and have his way with her on the spot, she'd have been violated by the man by the time Dylan arrived. At the thought of it, she was both aggrieved and outraged. She was also angry with herself for being no match for Frank and for being unable to beat the hell out of him.

"Kendall?" Realizing that the situation was bad, Dylan stretched out his hand to grab her, but he didn't even manage to catch the hem of her clothes. He hurriedly got out of the car and chased after her recklessly. "Kendall! Kendall!"

Tears of grievance fell from Kendall's eyes as the wind blew in her face. Ignoring the cool and indifferent man, she strode along the road while weeping.

Just then, she was stopped by Ronnie's cries. "Young Mistress Kendall, Young Master Dylan fell over!"

She stopped and looked back at the man who was trying to get up after falling over. After being helped up by his bodyguards, he struggled to chase after her. He did care about her, but he let her experience the world. Even if she ended up being covered in bruises, he'd say that it was part of what she had to experience in life.


However, she was angry with him after facing Frank alone today. She was angry with him for not arriving sooner.

She wanted to harden her heart and leave just like that, so she turned around and walked a few steps, only to turn back in the end. She walked back up to him without saying a word, wanting to help him into the car, but he took her into his arms. "Sorry that I'm late, Kendall," he apologized with self-reproach.

"Even if you arrived sooner, could you protect me? You can't walk!" Kendall argued out of spite.

Dylan fell silent for a moment. Then, he replied, "Kendall, I'll get to my feet very soon for your sake. I'm sorry, okay? It was my fault. I should've arranged for someone to follow and protect you."

"I don't want to be followed by someone else!" Kendall pushed him away and wiped her tears. "It feels like I'm being watched. I don't want to be protected by bodyguards either. I want to be protected by you. You're my man!"

Dylan's heart ached as he helped her wipe her tears away. Feeling sorry for her, he replied, "Okay, okay. I'll protect you without letting anyone else do the job. Don't cry anymore, Kendall. It was my fault. My heart's broken whenever you cry."

"Where's your broken heart? All you know is to coax me."

Having vented her emotions, Kendall felt much better. Actually, she knew that Dylan wasn't to blame. He was able to predict that Frank would come after her because of her relationship with him, but he didn't expect the man to be waiting here.

"If you don't believe me, I can give you a sharp knife for you to cut my heart out and take a look at it."

"I don't want to be a widow." Kendall helped pat the dust off him. Then, she continued, "I fought with Frank just now."

Dylan grabbed her hand to stop her from patting the dust off him. He asked anxiously, "Did you hurt yourself? Frank has practiced martial arts at a martial arts academy, so he's very skilled at fighting. I fought with him before my accident, but the fight ended in a draw." Kendall had said that she was skilled in freestyle boxing and taekwondo, which was more than enough to deal with ordinary people. However, she would stand no chance against someone like Frank.

"I'm fine." Kendall quickly reassured her husband. "He didn't hurt me. I hurt him by biting the back of his hand instead."

Speechless, Dylan looked at her for a long time. Then, he said sulkily, "His feelings for you are sincere." Otherwise, he wouldn't have let her bite the back of his hand.

Kendall was at a loss for words.

Dylan turned back.

Kendall was stunned. Is he jealous or something? Nothing happened between Frank and me.

After walking a few steps, Dylan stopped and looked back. Stretching out his right hand toward her, he looked at her intently, saying, "Kendall, come here."

Kendall took a few steps forward before putting her hand in his palm.

Dylan curled his fingers around her hand.
