Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 667 Father and Daughter

"When you came back to us, your mother and I tried our best to be fair to both of you. I was delighted to see you two get along. I thought that would go on forever. I thought we could have two brilliant girls we could call our own. I thought you girls could help each other out, but… it seems I was wrong. I failed. She wasn't raised well. I failed the Woodses. They raised you into a kind, understanding woman while I raised Kelly into an evil, prejudiced girl." Adam couldn't blame it on genetics since the Woodses were kind people. The only thing he could blame that on was education.

"It's none of your fault, Daddy. You raised her to be a brilliant woman, but people change. They are the product of their environment. Money is always the best thing to discover someone's true colors." So many people had their relationships broken over money—friends, family, and even couples.

Adam buried his face in his hands and cried quietly.

Kendall wrapped her arm around his shoulder quietly. She spent so much time turning Kelly and her parents into enemies so they would be hurt less by Kelly's betrayal, but that plan failed. Her parents had raised Kelly and spent a lot of effort on her. They hoped she would grow to become a great woman, but now she wanted to take their lives. The pain was almost unbearable.

A long while later, Adam finally calmed down and said, "She's escaped, but I have told Dylan about it. I made sure he'd help the cops out. Kelly must be punished for what she did."

"She can't escape. She might be able to escape this city, but she'll be caught eventually."

Even though Adam wanted Kelly to be caught, he was still agonizing over it. "Kendall, I need to tell you something."

"Of course, Daddy."

"The victims only fell to their demise because of us. I'd like to help those victims' families out for Kelly's sake by giving them some money."
