Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 484

At the main house of Coleman Residence.

"Here, have some meat, Grandma." Dylan filled Tilly's plate with her favorite food.

Tilly grinned from ear to ear. "I can take anything I want by myself, Dylan. You should finish lunch as soon as you can. There's work to be done."

He had promised to have lunch with her, and he did, much to her surprise. She was happy that he had purposely made a trip back from the company to have lunch with her, but at the same time, she couldn't help but worry that he might tire himself out.

Dylan took a few more pieces of meat for her.

Mary smiled before teasing him. "Don't ignore me, Dylan. My plate's still empty."

He quickly filled her plate with some food as well. He used to respect Mary out of courtesy as she was Tilly's friend. However, that changed after the recent incident. He now respected her from the bottom of his heart. He was truly grateful for her as she was the only one who dared to tell the truth even to a raging Tilly to help him and Kendall out.

Jane filled Mary's plate with some food as well, and the old ladies had a wonderful time enjoying lunch with their grandchildren.

"Just go back to work after this, Dylan. You don't have to stay with me. I'm already content that you're willing to have lunch with me. That is good enough for me."

Dylan was the head of the family. He had a lot of things to do. Before Kendall showed up, he spent most of his time working. He had no time for her, but after Kendall showed up, she saw him more. Tilly had to say that Kendall changed him—he was even more of a human now.

"Don't worry, Master Dylan. I'm here with them. They won't feel lonely," Jane assured.

Thanks to the crisis concerning Dylan and Kendall, Jane and Yoseph hadn't been fighting for days, nor did they pull any pranks on each other. After all, they had just witnessed a relationship that was full of challenges and hurdles. At the very least, their relationship was happy and without obstacles to the point where both families already wanted to match them up. The only thing that irked her was the fact that Yoseph had never once confessed his true feelings for her. She could feel his love, but she still wanted to hear him say it.

"And there's me, too!" Alice quickly interjected. Don't want everyone to ignore me.

Emily glanced at her son, looking like she had something to say.

Dylan only left home after they had all finished their lunch.

"I'll send you off, Dylan." Emily would like to talk with her son alone.

He grunted in acknowledgment. After the forced separation, he realized they had to handle the relationship with his family well. The elders might not come after Kendall thanks to him standing by her side every time, but that didn't mean they could just do nothing about it.

It needed time and effort to create a better relationship with the in-laws. Kendall was a kind, smart, and wise woman. He was sure the feud between Kendall and her in-laws would be settled if she was given time to deal with it. You need a peaceful family if you want to have any success in life.

Emily pushed him out of the house.

Ronnie was waiting outside, and he was about to take over, but since Emily wasn't letting Dylan go, he followed them instead.

"Dylan, we've apologized to the Parkers. So, when are you bringing her back?"

Now that she knew Kendall was at the Ford Residence, she was worried. "Scott likes her a lot, and Eric loves his son. Are you fine with her staying with them? It's been days."

Dylan turned around. "So, you're now worried someone might steal my wife away, huh?"

She knocked on his head lightly at that. "What are you talking about? I'm just worried about you." A momentary pause later, she added, "I don't like her, yeah, but you do. You'd throw your dignity away just for her, and it hurts me to see you in such a miserable state."

She could still remember how he was crawling on the ground, and it ripped her heart into pieces. The pain her son had gone through from losing Kendall had finally opened her eyes to the truth. As long as her son was happy, she could live with Kendall, even if she didn't like her.

And Fergus did say they could travel the world if she didn't want to see Kendall. Or they could spend some time on their private island.

"Don't worry, Mom. She's mine. Nobody can take her away—we're meant for each other."

Dylan was not superstitious, but Tilly did mention something like reincarnation and fate twice. He believed this relationship was what fate wanted. There were a lot of beautiful women in his life, but none made him fall for them. Yet, Kendall had made him fall in love easily. She was the woman in his dream as well. This must be fate.

"Eric's wife woke up the night Kendall went to their place. Now, everyone treats her like the goddess she is. She had saved Scott's life, and now Eric's wife woke up because Kendall visited them, so they all see her as their lucky charm."

"That's merely a coincidence."

"Well, at any rate, I have assigned Emma to her just in case."

"You have planned everything out, haven't you?"

Dylan said nothing, but his silence was as good as an answer.

"So, locking yourself in the study and going on a hunger strike for a day was also a part of your plan?"

Dylan remained silent.
