Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 557

Dylan pinched Scott's cheeks and threatened, "You're lucky you're three years old. Otherwise, don't even think about coming close to my wife."

Scott smiled flatteringly. He still couldn't understand what a wife was, but he knew a wife would always be by his side.

Mom is Dad's wife, so Dad will always be with Mom. Also, Miss Parker is Mr. Dylan's wife, so Miss Parker will always be around Mr. Dylan.

Since he liked being with Kendall and hoped she could always be with him like his mom, he wanted Kendall to be his wife so that she would stay with him forever.

With a child livening the atmosphere, the awkwardness the Ford couple felt soon disappeared.

"Margaret, congratulations on making a full recovery!"

Kendall congratulated Margaret before teasing them, "When the time is right, you guys can give Scott a younger sibling."

When Margaret heard that, she blushed.

As she gradually recovered, she could sense her husband's desire and even noticed his burning gaze whenever he looked at her. It was so passionate that it burned her.

During the three years she was in a coma, Eric disciplined himself and only focused on managing the company while taking care of Scott. No matter who tried to persuade him to look for another woman, he stood his ground and waited for Margaret to wake up.

His affection deeply moved Margaret.

The two of them got married to unite their families. At the beginning of their marriage, Margaret was hesitant because she didn't know if she could capture Eric's heart.

Fortunately for them, the two bonded after living together for a while and became a loving couple.

"Stop teasing me. When are you and Master Dylan going to have a wedding? Also, when can I have a goddaughter or a godson? I'm serious, Kendall. I must become your child's godmother."

"A wedding…" Kendall looked at her husband and smiled. "Once we have time, we can hold a wedding any moment."

She knew Dylan was secretly preparing for their marriage.

"As for a child, of course, we're also looking forward to having one, but it's a waiting game as we don't know when the child will come."

Kendall admitted that she did want to become a mother.

Since she had decided to let her baby return, the two had stopped using all contraception methods. After counting the days, Kendall felt it should be soon.

She now paid a lot of attention to her health, trying not to get a cold. Also, she didn't consume any medications or alcohol in case she conceived.

"Having children also depends on fate," Kendall whispered.

Margaret patted Kendall's hand. "Don't give yourself too much pressure. Sometimes, the more pressured you are, the more things won't go your way."

As Margaret didn't know the whole story, she thought the Colemans were urging Kendall to have a child, which was why she felt so much pressure.

"Yes, let fate take its course. By the way, since you three came here so early, you must not have had breakfast yet, right? Come on, let's eat together," Kendall urged while pulling Margaret to her feet.

Scott disliked being ignored. "Mommy, hug me."

Just as Margaret turned around and was about to pick Scott up, Eric picked up Scott and said, "Your body is still weak, so don't carry this brat. He has put on some weight recently."

Afterward, Dylan pinched Scott's cheek and concurred, "Someone's gained some weight, huh? Be careful you can't eat sugary foods anymore if you become obese."

"I want to eat sugary foods!" Scott started feeling anxious.

"Mr. Dylan is just trying to scare you. You'll be fine, sweetheart!"

Kendall smiled and gave Dylan a death stare. "Stop teasing Scott. Look how you scared him."

Scott looked at his dad and finally felt relieved after getting his dad's confirmation.

Mr. Dylan is so mean. He must want me to become obese so that Miss Parker will dislike me, he thought.

Since the Fords had come for a visit, Kendall wanted to stay at home and entertain them as the host. However, the Fords declined her offer, saying they would bring Scott around the city and didn't need her to accompany them. Then, they left.

Thus, Kendall could only give up on that idea.

Instead of immediately heading to the company, Kendall chose to head back to the Parker Residence.

As Charlotte hadn't woken up, the servant wanted to head upstairs to wake her up but was stopped by Kendall.

Kendall sat on the couch, and the servant returned with a plate of fruits before placing it on the coffee table, asking, "Miss Kendall, would you like some pickles? I made them myself."

"Pickles must be very sour, right? I don't like sour stuff," Kendall instinctively rejected.

But soon, she changed her mind. "Alright, I'll give it a try."

The servant smiled. "It is quite sour, but I added some onion and spices, so it tastes sour, sweet, and spicy at the same time. It's delicious, and it stimulates your appetite. I only dared to ask you because you're Miss Kendall. If it had been Miss Kelly, I wouldn't have dared to ask her."

All the servants knew that Kendall grew up in the countryside and could accept the cheap foods they ate, which was unlike Miss Kelly, who only consumed the best and the most expensive food and drinks. Even the fruits she ate were imported fruits.

That servant returned with a plate of cut-up pickles with a layer of diced red onions.

When Kendall smelled the pickles, she felt like she was about to drool.

She used a toothpick to pick a slice of pickle and placed it inside her mouth. With the diced onions on the pickle, the spicy taste mellowed the sourness of the pickle, which was quite delicious.
