Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 290

They chatted for quite a while before Sally hung up.

Placing her phone down, she saw her husband enter the room and asked her, "Who were you on the phone with? You were laughing so happily that I could hear you all the way from the living room."

Sally smiled and replied, "I was chatting with our son-in-law."

"Mr. Coleman?"

Saul did not address Dylan as 'Master Dylan'. Rather, he called him 'Mr. Coleman.'

In the past, this simple man never did pay any attention to the moguls of Orapolis as it was something irrelevant to him. As one would expect, someone like him would never have the chance to meet a commerce genius like Dylan.

Yet, who could have thought that the daughter he had been raising for twenty-five years was the biological daughter of the prominent family, the Parkers.

This change turned their world upside down.

Although his foster daughter was taken away by the Parker Family, Saul still kept his tabs on whatever happened to the family as the two daughters of the Parkers were akin to his.

Since he kept watch on the ongoings of the Parker Corporation, naturally he would also get to know about the other prominent families of Orapolis. Unavoidable, he came to some information on Dylan.

Saul, who even in his dreams, did not think that his precious daughter would get married to Dylan.

Back then, when he heard that the Colemans brought up marriage with the Parkers, they had specifically asked for Kendall's hand in marriage. That made Saul very angry, thinking that the Coleman Family was oppressing them. Despite their young master being a cripple, he still wanted to marry a perfectly normal girl by force.

At the same time, Kendall told them that she had a man she fancied and was convincing Adam to approve their marriage.

Since Saul respected his daughter's choice all the while, he had hoped that she could be with the man she liked.

If not for his wife stopping him, he would have gone to the Colemans to settle the score a long time ago.

The events of old worsened Saul's impression of Dylan.

Even though Sally said this was Kendall's choice, he still could not wrap his head around it. However, he respected her freedom and secretly remembered this incident inside.

"Our son-in-law isn't just Master Dylan alone. I wonder… How is Kelly getting along with that young master from the Whittle Family?"

How could Sally not see it when even Nelson could tell that Kelly liked Jackson?

"We don't need to concern ourselves with her. You nearly lost your life trying to meet her this time. No more of that in the future, okay? She is our biological daughter, but she doesn't recognize our family as hers. You will only attract her ire by looking for her. So, why give yourself a hard time willingly? Every time you return, you only sigh upon thinking about her to the point where you're losing sleep at night. When Kendall comes back and sees you like this, she'll feel hurt again."

Clearly, Saul was very opinionated against Kelly.

Nelson had also told him what he had to know.

"But… She is our biological daughter. How could I not go? It's not that I want to interfere in her life. It's just that I wanted to take a look at her and see if her life's alright." Sally became upset upon recalling Kelly.

Taking her phone away, Saul placed it on the dressing table and said to her, "Take a nap for now. Don't overthink this. How can she not be okay? Ever since she was young, she was raised as the successor of the Parker Family. All her possessions and meals are of the highest quality. Look at how arrogant and proud she is now. When she comes back, she even complains that our floor is dirty and doesn't want to step out of her car. She's having a grand old time at the Parker Corporation, as President Parker trusts her more than Kendall. Who we should be worrying about is Kendall instead; she grew up with us after all. Even if we've given her the best we could afford, it still can't be compared to the resources the Parkers have."

Saul sighed and blamed himself. "Our real daughter was raised in another family as a successful businesswoman with a bright future. As for their daughter who was raised in our family… In the end, we've let Kendall down too much. Now that she's married to the Colemans, I heard that they are extremely strict in that they have more rules than the hairs of our cow."

When they found out that the biological parents of Kendall were unable to be her backing, they knew that they were even less likely for her to rely on.

So, they should be worrying about Kendall, instead of Kelly.

After listening to her husband's words, Sally heaved a sigh. "It's all because we weren't capable enough to provide for Kendall. I've met Master Dylan before and talked with him. He's a very cold and dominating man. He doesn't seem to like the tight bond Kendall shares with her brothers, but he does love Kendall. If he didn't care about her, he wouldn't be so controlling of her. He also wouldn't visit me at the hospital nor would he have arranged a car to send me home. Just earlier, he even took the time and chatted with me for a while. This all points to the fact that he loves Kendall. As long as Master Dylan is protecting her, we don't have much to worry about." This was true as it was useless of them to worry. It was not like they could do anything about it.

Sally could understand the intentions of her eldest son wanting to make a name for himself in Orapolis.

If he wanted to be his sister's backing, he would have to work very hard and sacrifice a lot.

"Saul, when you're done with work, bring some local specialties from our hometown to visit Kendall. After all, you should meet up with the in-laws."

Saul replied, "You think anyone can enter the Coleman Residence? In their eyes, they might not even treat Parkers as their in-laws. Why would the Colemans treat us as their in-laws? You just take a nap now and don't worry about both our daughters. We don't have the capability to do that anyway. Just take care of your own body."

Her husband's words seemed to make sense as Sally sighed again and again.

Meanwhile, Kendall was completely unaware of how worried her foster parents were.

She had returned home very late last night. On top of that, she went to bed with Dylan, so she only managed to sleep for a few hours.
