Chapter 414
"Ms. Taylor, why don't you head back into the house and I'll seek Master's permission to arrange a ride for you to
the hospital to get the wound dressed."
Though Amelia had not actually been bitten by the wolfhounds, there were some graze wounds left on her skin
when the wolfhound was biting on her shirt; that also explained why Desmond had seen the scratch marks on her
lower back.
"After getting the wound dressed, you need to get a rabies shot as soon as possible too."
The wolfhounds reared by the Mendelsons did not actually have rabies and they were vaccinated too. However, she
had some open wounds, so it was safer to get a shot just in case.
"Thanks, Desmond," Amelia expressed her gratitude.
Thank God for Desmond; otherwise, I don't know how I will survive in the Mendelson Residence. He's such a kind-
hearted butler, who sometimes helps me out too!
If everyone was as callous and indifferent as Frank, then it was quite likely that she would be left to fend for herself
if she encountered trouble.
"I'll wait outside, then. I won't be heading in."
Amelia took a few steps forward and suddenly changed her mind. There was no way she would be going in again.
Although the main house was furnished lavishly, there still lived a devil inside.
Perhaps being in such a disheveled state might not be a punishment enough for the devil to change his mind, so it
was much safer if she stayed out of the place. If things went wrong, then she would have more time to run away
this time.
Knowing what her concern was about, Desmond did not pressure her either. Instead, he instructed some men to
stay with her and keep her safe before he entered the house.
Frank, who had been a seated audience by the exclusive window spot, felt his spirits lifted significantly. He was just
coming down the stairs as Desmond walked into the house.
"Master." Desmond moved forward swiftly to help Frank.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I can get down by myself."
Frank's knees were indeed hurt, but it did not affect his mobility at all; there was just a slight limp in his steps.
Being a narcissist that he was, he did not want to walk with a limp unless it was in front of Kendall. After all, she was
the only one whom he wanted to garner sympathy and attention from.
However, if Kendall were here, she would honestly think, Like I would have a soft spot for you! Even if you break
your leg, I will not even bat an eye.
As such, Desmond had no choice but to walk beside Frank and escort him while Frank took his time and steps.
Desmond looked on as his stubborn master held the stair rails and walked down slowly.
"What's Kendall up to recently? I haven't seen her for days now and I miss her so much."
Desmond kept silent for a moment before replying, "Ms. Parker has been quite busy lately. This morning, she kept
her mother-in-law and sister-in-law company. They went shopping and bought a lot of clothes. In the afternoon, she
stayed at home, but we don't know what she did inside Coleman Residence. After that, she rushed off to the
hospital. Something happened to the eldest son of the Woodses and the hospital informed Ms. Parker, so she
rushed off to there. Master Dylan went over as well later on and they stayed overnight. After they entered the
Coleman Family's territory, our men were unable to follow them."
Ever since Frank's men found out that Dylan had instructed extra protection for Kendall, they had to take careful
measures whenever they tailed Kendall. Otherwise, who knew whether they would be accosted and beaten up by
the bodyguards the next second?
"What happened to Nelson?" Frank asked calmly, "Is he in a critical condition?"
He recalled that Kendall and Nelson had a close relationship.
The first time Frank had met Kendall and found her to be the girl in his dreams, he suspected that they had hidden
his child from him, so he tried to probe Nelson and his mother for information before nearly getting beaten up by
him. Without a doubt, Nelson was a very protective older brother.
"Nelson wanted to seek justice for his sister, so he went after Jackson. When the two of them grappled with each
other, Krystal took out a fire extinguisher from her car to help, but Nelson was attacked from behind and Jackson
took the chance to grab the fire extinguisher before assaulting Nelson with that. He ended up badly injured and he
was in a critical state when he was sent to the hospital."
"So, is he out of the woods now?" Frank inquired. After all, that was his future brother-in-law, so he had to show
some form of concern.
If Nelson knew that, he would be fairly disgusted. Bullsh*t! I'm not your brother-in-law, you shameless man!
As for Dylan, he would surely stare at his rival coldly, Are you trying to steal my brother-in-law too?
Frank did not bother to wait for Desmond's response as he muttered to himself, "Kendall's gone back to Coleman
Residence, so her brother's condition must have stabilized."
"No, his condition hasn't stabilized, but the doctors have managed to resuscitate him and he's been transferred to
the ICU. He would only be considered in a stabilized condition once he regains consciousness. Right now, his father
and brother are keeping vigil in the hospital and Master Dylan has instructed two men to keep guard there."
Frank pursed his lips and they moved forward as they spoke. Soon enough, they arrived at the lower ground and
Frank headed to the couch to take a seat.
"Send someone to the hospital tomorrow morning. If Nelson has regained consciousness and been transferred to
the normal ward, then give me a call. I want to visit him."
"Master…" Desmond hesitated, but he seemed to have something to say.
"You don't have to say a thing. Throughout my life up till now, I haven't yet failed in obtaining anything that I'm
after, be it an object or a person."
"Master, are you doing all this because of Master Dylan?"
Frank glared at Desmond angrily. "Desmond, right now, Dylan's the one who stole the mother of my child. I'm not
the one snatching his woman!"
"Master!" Desmond reckoned that Frank had hit a dead end and yet he refused to turn back. Frank was stuck in a
rut and Desmond felt very worried.
"Master, Ms. Taylor went into the backyard by accident and caught the attention of the wolfhounds. She was chased
by them and was significantly frightened by the ordeal. One of the wolfhounds pounced at her and she fell to the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmground. She went through some rough handling by the wolfhound and she needs to head to the hospital. Should I
arrange for transport to send Ms. Taylor to the hospital to get her wound dressed?"
I should just change the topic since I can't convince Master to stop obsessing over Ms. Parker. Right now, Ms.
Taylor's the only woman, other than Ms. Parker, whom Master allows to get close to him. Miss Zorn pops by every
other day, but he doesn't even allow her into the house.
Desmond hoped that Frank would become more focused on Amelia with the hopes that Frank would finally emerge
unscathed from the unrequited love he harbored for Kendall.
Frank remained silent and took out his phone to play the video he took from before.
Then, the sound of dogs barking and Amelia's cries for help reverberated in the living room.
Meanwhile, Desmond was at a loss for words. Master actually stood there and saw the entire process, but didn't
even bother to whistle and save Ms. Taylor? Is Ms. Parker the only person exempted from his ruthlessness? He's not
one to easily fall in love, but once he has fallen for someone, he's fixated on that person only. However, he's fallen
for the wrong person.
It pained Desmond to see Frank in such a state, but there was nothing Desmond could do about that. After all, he
had already said what he could and even risked offending Frank, but Frank stubbornly refused to heed his advice.
"It's too bad that she wasn't ripped apart by the wolfhounds." After Frank enjoyed the video, his mood seemed to be
lifted as he mentioned that sentence slightly regretfully.
Desmond maintained his silence.
"Hey, send her inside. Let me see how badly she's wounded. If it's just a slight graze, then there's no need to head
to the hospital and disrupt the doctors on the night shift."
Hearing this, Desmond silently sympathized with Amelia, but he affirmed respectfully and turned around to get her.
As soon as Amelia saw Desmond walk out, she turned around and attempted to run off.
"Ms. Taylor," he instantly called out her name, "Master won't carve a flower on the back of your hand anymore."
Amelia paused in her tracks and stopped trying to flee the scene. She turned around and tugged at the male top
she had on tightly as she asked in an apprehensive tone of voice, "Desmond, that madman—Oh, I mean what did
your master say? Am I allowed to leave now?"
Honestly, she did not mind whether there was any transport to send her to the hospital as all she wanted was to
leave Mendelson Residence as soon as possible. It was now about the usual time that Ronnie arrived to pick her up.
