Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 602

"I'll go with you, Mom. Best that we do a full body checkup too." Kendall dared not be careless.

"It's just a small issue. There's no need to get worked up." Charlotte said with a smile. "You have no idea how happy I am now that I know you're pregnant. Hey, I might even get a good night's sleep tonight. It's usually because I'm worried about you guys that I can't sleep."

"I've already asked for a leave in the morning, and there's still time left. Since we've run into each other here, I might as well follow you to your checkup."

At that, Charlotte looked toward Dylan, who immediately said he had time and was fine with it.

Seeing that Kendall and Dylan insisted on taking her for a checkup, Charlotte no longer turned them down and let them follow her to the doctor's office.

Under Kendall's request, the doctor listed a detailed full-body checkup for Charlotte to undergo.

Though Charlotte kept saying she was fine and didn't need to go through so many checkups, she still did as Kendall requested, doing every checkup on the list seriously.

Later, they learned that they wouldn't be able to get many of the results on the spot, so Kendall took it upon herself to collect the reports as well.

Charlotte said nothing to that but only beamed the whole time.

As for the reports they could get immediately, all the readings were fine.

Then, on their journey home, Kendall asked Charlotte about the things she had eaten and consumed lately.

Her cautiousness made Charlotte chuckle and tap the former's forehead. "Kendall, you're only in your twenties. Don't go about being paranoid. I may not be an Iron Lady, but I've experienced most things life has to offer. I doubt I'd be plotted against in my own house."

Hell, she was the matriarch of the Parker Family.

Adam wasn't crazy about women, so he had been faithfully loyal to her ever since marrying Charlotte.

Back when Adam's parents were still around, they had been very critical of her because she only gave the Parker Family one daughter. However, Adam always stood by her, so even if her in-laws bullied her, she still lived a relatively happy life since she had Adam's support.

After Adam's parents passed, she became the matriarch of the family, and since then, she has been living a pretty sweet life.

"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, I'm keeping my eyes peeled."

Charlotte was the first to learn about Kendall's whacky dream, and she didn't want to believe she and Adam had died in Kelly's hands. But in reality, she would still subconsciously put her guard up against Kelly.

She would be super careful with whatever she ate or drank.

"Either way, you and Dad have to be super careful, and you guys have to get the car you guys normally drive checked regularly."

In her past life, her parents died in a car crash.

She always thought it was an accident, and it wasn't until Kelly told the truth that she realized her parents' death was all Kelly's doing.

Kendall remembered the investigation report she received from the police after her parents' death stated that the car they drove hadn't been tampered with. Besides, it was someone else who crashed into her parents' car. The person's car was wrecked, and he died on the spot too.

Kendall also remembered the driver that killed her parents was an orphan who gained a little bit of success through his own efforts in Orapolis. It was because he drove home drunk after a business engagement instead of calling for a cab that he crashed into Charlotte and Adam's car.

As it was drunk driving, the man was liable for everything. Did it matter, though? Her parents were dead, and so was the man!

Many events deviated from the original timeline since she reincarnated, so she wasn't certain if misfortune would befall her parents again. She could only be cautious.

"I know. Don't worry. You're an expecting mother now. Keeping a positive mood is important when raising a healthy baby." Charlotte held Kendall's hand and imparted her experience in conceiving a child to the latter.

After sending Charlotte back to the Parker Residence, the couple joined Charlotte for lunch, and Kendall took a nap before she and Dylan left, for the both of them had to return to work.

Kendall had to accompany her father to meet an important client, and Kelly would be there too, so she couldn't miss it.

"Kendall."

Kendall looked toward Dylan in response, and the latter promised gravely, "Kelly's every single move is under my watch. There's no need to get paranoid or worried. I won't let your dream become a reality."

The young woman eased up at once.

Yeah, I'm not alone anymore. I have Dylan, and he's been by my side all this while. It sure is great to have him!

At that, she leaned her head against his shoulder and uttered gratefully, "It sure is nice to have you this lifetime, darling."

"And I, you," said Dylan as he held her close.

His world had turned from gray to colorful ever since she came into his life.

She was his savior.

After dropping Kendall off at Parker Corporation, Dylan returned to Coleman Empire Holdings, and the first thing he did was order his men to keep a close eye on Kelly and the Whittles' movements.

Kelly was pregnant with Jackson's child, so the Whittles would certainly help her if she went to them.

Kelly was pregnant with Jackson's child, so the Whittles would certainly help her if she went to them.

Yes, the Whittles were bankrupt and in debt, but they were still around, and it wouldn't be surprising at all if they loathed Kendall to the core.

Nonetheless, Dylan never feared making enemies. He had already made so many that he didn't care if he had to add the Whittles to his list.

In the afternoon, Adam met with the major client with his two girls and two secretaries.

Since the client stayed in a hotel under Zorn Holdings on this trip to Orapolis, the group naturally met there.

With that, the two vehicles entered the hotel one after another and parked in the parking lot.

Emma and Kendall sat in one car while Kelly sat in another with Adam and Jessie.

At work, Kelly was the vice president of Parker Corporation, so it was only natural that she ranked higher than Kendall.

After getting out of the cars, Adam led the four of them into the hotel, and that was when Brian came out.

Next to him was a young woman whose arm was wrapped around his. The two were chatting as they walked, and the woman beamed brilliantly. Meanwhile, Brian's gaze at her was laced with a smile.

He didn't see Kelly, but Kelly saw him at first glance, and her countenance shifted for the worst. That said, she came to herself fairly quickly.

Adam, on the other hand, looked incredibly grim. Yet, there was nothing he could do.After all, Kelly and Brian's relationship was very much ill-defined. What was more, the Zorns opposed it greatly—Jacqueline didn't want Brian to have anything to do with Kelly at all.

Even Yasmine, who used to be Kelly's best friend, stood by Jacqueline, beseeching Brian to stay far away from Kelly.

However, the mother and daughter were unaware that Brian and Kelly had a partnership. So, at present, it was impossible for the two to sever their ties once and for all.

It wasn't until Brian took a few steps that he saw Adam and the group, and he stopped in his tracks immediately. He had wanted to move the woman's hand away, but a thought came to him, and he didn't do anything in the end.
