Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 495

After Adam and Charlotte took Kelly home, they didn't punish or scold her, and only looked at her with a deep gaze before they went upstairs silently.

Kelly was left looking at their retreating figures from the staircase and slightly panicked.

She would rather have her parents punish her like before. Adam would slap her when she did something wrong, but now that they had stopped doing any of that, they must have given up on her.

Are they going to abandon me? Kelly paled at that.

Regardless of what happened to Kelly, Kendall managed to negotiate two deals for the Parker Corporation in Eastfort without relying on the influence of the Ford Family.

When she went to discuss business, she didn't let Jane accompany her because she didn't want to rely on their power.

The person who went with her was Emma.

However, even though Emma was capable, she was still Dylan's secretary. She could not help Kendall much since she didn't know much about Parker Corporation's products. The most she could do was drink alcohol on Kendall's behalf.

As soon as her old friend left, Dylan flew to Eastfort with great fanfare to bring his lovely wife home.

He took a private plane which landed directly at the private landing area in front of the Ford Residence.

Knowing that Dylan was coming to pick Kendall up today, Eric and his son especially came back from the hospital and waited for Dylan's arrival.

Not only was Dylan well-known, but he also had a reputation in Eastfort.

When those who were close friends with the Ford Family discovered Dylan personally coming over to pick up his wife, they came up with all kinds of excuses to visit the Ford Residence and shamelessly stay there.

All of them wanted to see Dylan's gallantry for themselves.

Rumor had it that Dylan looked like God himself sculpted him, but the man was aloof.

They knew they would regret it if they missed the chance to see the man from the legends.

"Miss Parker, are you leaving?"

Scott was like a piece of gum that stuck to Kendall at this moment. His father tried to peel him off of her several times but to no avail.

The boy felt somewhat apologetic because he was the one who told Kendall to come to see him and play with him, and yet he hadn't spent a second with her since he had to keep his mother company after Kendall's arrival.

It was no wonder he felt sorry for her.

"Mhm, I am going back. I can't keep staying here when I have a mountain of things to deal with back home." She then added with a smile, "Don't be sad, Scott. You can come with your parents to see me in Eastfort when your mother is feeling better."

At the rate that Margaret's recuperation was going, Kendall believed they would be able to visit Eastfort right around the new year.

"But I don't want to let you go, Miss Parker." The boy pouted and linked his arms around her neck. "Miss Parker, can you please tell Mr. Dylan not to come so that you can stay here and play with me for a little longer? I promise I will play with you this time!"

Kendall smiled at that. "But Mr. Dylan's plane is already here."

Scott watched the roaring private planes that slowly approached and finally landed in his home's landing area.

As the Ford Family had a lot of private planes, they built that plane parking lot for their convenience.

"I really, really don't want you to go, Miss Parker." The little guy's reluctance was evident.

Emma smiled and patted his head from the side. "And you are willing to let me go, Scott? Why don't you say goodbye to me?"

Scott was still hugging Kendall's neck tightly when he mumbled to Emma, "I don't want to part with you too, Miss Finley, but there is no use in feeling that way. You will still go back anyway."

"All good things come to an end," Kendall interjected, earning a pout from the boy.

"Miss Parker, I am still a young child. I don't understand all that adult stuff."

Kendall laughed when she heard the child's reply. She then saw Dylan get off the plane, so she carried Scott and went to greet the man.

A pair of big hands suddenly reached over and took Scott out of her arms.

"Go on, Young Mistress Coleman. I will carry Scott."

Dylan wouldn't leave as soon as he arrived, but the young couple had been separated for many days after all. Anyone else would be third-wheelers if they were to join in on the couple's reunion, so everyone tactfully let Kendall go there alone.

Even Scott was not allowed to follow Kendall.

Seeing this, Kendall flashed Eric a smile before she hopped over to her man.

She missed him like crazy!

She could throw herself in his arms and hug him tight if she could.

"Miss Parker! Don't go, Miss Parker! Mom prepared you a gift. I haven't even passed it to you."

Margaret couldn't be discharged from the hospital yet. Knowing that Kendall was going back, Margaret asked someone to prepare a generous gift for the woman as her gratitude for saving Scott.

Margaret might lose her mind if the son she had given her life up to save was dead.

Kendall was the Fords' savior.

Eric hugged his son tightly and coaxed, "Miss Parker isn't leaving now. She has to eat with us before that. You can give the gift to Miss Parker later. She is only going over to welcome Mr. Dylan."

"I want to welcome Mr. Dylan too! Why aren't you letting me go over?"

Eric's eyes softened as a smile appeared on his face. "You will be a little third wheel if you go with Miss Parker."

"I am not a little third wheel!"
