Chapter 427
"He was going to drag us all into this mess. Good thing for us, Kendall and Dylan are actually married. We have
someone to back us up. If we were actually alone, we'd be facing bankruptcy by now."
The employees could see through the whole conspiracy, and they thought, Man, we're just bystanders. Don't drag
us into this.
Dylan and his wife left the company, and the blockade was gone when Dylan left.
The employees took their leave as well, but all of them stole glances at Frank when they passed him by. They could
see the pain and agony festering in his eyes. It made them sympathize with him, especially the ladies. They wished
they could become the woman he loved instead of Kendall.
He's sitting right here with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. I can't bear to watch this. I know Kendall doesn't like
him, but don't leave him hanging. This is so cruel. Everyone was whispering among themselves.
A long while later, Frank ordered his bodyguard, "I'm going back to the company."
"Sir, but our cars—"
"Desmond will deal with this. He'll talk to Ronnie about it." It sounded like Frank still had everything under control.
"You still haven't had lunch, sir," the bodyguard said.
Frank stared at the bouquet and imagined how happy Kendall would be if she took it, but that would only happen in
his imagination. She would never take his bouquet. There was nothing but hatred for him in her heart. "I am not

The bodyguards would like for him to have lunch, but they weren't about to go against his orders. Then Desmond
sent some cars over for the bodyguards.
Frank's own car was still around. He stood up and whispered, "No need for the wheelchair anymore." Even that
b*stard stood up. No reason for me to keep using this.
I knew he'd stand back up. That crisis didn't manage to squash him like a bug, and now he's back on his legs. Frank
was annoyed. He thought Dylan was too resilient, and he couldn't believe the woman he liked was the one who
helped him stand back up.
…
Kelly was feeling sleepy after having lunch. Brian sent her some photos, and when she flipped through them, she
wasn't feeling sleepy anymore.
"Who's that?" Charlotte asked. She didn't tell Kelly that she had gotten the test results and pretended everything
was fine. But in reality, she was on guard, and Kelly was on the other side of that wall. The trust she once had for
Kelly could never be rebuilt again.
They used to be close, but now they were estranged. One day in the future, Kelly would look back at her past and
realize she was the one who forced herself onto the path of no return, and regret would engulf her.
"A friend." Kelly wouldn't tell her it was from Brian. The pictures she got were of the event that happened at Parker
Corporation earlier.
In the pictures, Frank was waiting outside, holding a bouquet of flowers, and a banner hung on the cars behind him.
The message on the banner read, 'Frank loves Kendall!'
Frank likes Kendall? Kelly was shocked, but when she thought about it, she realized Frank was just using Kendall to
get at Dylan. There aren't photos of them appearing together, but this is enough. I'm going to print these out and
get someone to let Tilly see this.
Dylan might be the Colemans' leader and the top dog of the family, but his grandparents raised him. He respected
Tilly, and she was dominating when she was younger. The reason she laid low was to let her grandson have a
chance to shine. If she was angered, even Dylan would find it hard to settle.
"Ask the doctor if I can get discharged today, Mom. My stomach isn't killing me anymore, and I'm not bleeding. I
should be fine. I'll get some rest back home."
Kelly wanted to leave the hospital. Staying here stopped her from executing her evil plans.
"I'll see if he gives the permission. Do you want to see Nell before you leave?" Charlotte asked.
They told Sally what happened to Nell. When she was told her son was nearly dead and was still in the ICU because
he tried to make Jackson pay for what he did to Kelly, she fainted on the spot.
A shocked Charlotte told the doctor to wake Sally up, and the woman wobbled all the way to the ICU to see her son.
Charlotte saw her off, and guilt welled up within her. I shouldn't have stopped Kendall from seeing the Woods. It's
not easy being a mother.
Charlotte might be Kendall's real mother, but Sally did a lot for her as well. The Woods were the only reason Kendall
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgrew up to be a good woman, but she tried to cut Kendall off from the Woods after they were reunited. That was
rude and heartless of me.
A moment of silence later, Kelly said, "I'm pregnant. It might be unluck—"
"He's still alive. Nothing will happen. Even if he passes away, he's still your brother, and he got into this because he
tried to help you. You should go see him no matter the reason," Charlotte castigated her. Then, she held her fury
down and continued calmly, "Fine. Suit yourself. I'll go look for the doctor now."
Turning around, Charlotte left the ward, but the moment she closed the door, tears welled up within her eyes. She
couldn't believe the girl she loved and cared so much for would turn out to be a monster. My heart aches.
Kelly froze up for a moment, but she shook it away and stared at the photos Brian sent her. A sneer then curled her
lips. "Just what I needed."
She didn't even have to hire a hot guy to approach Kendall. Frank was the perfect guy for her plan. He was at
loggerheads with Dylan, and if the photos were shown to Tilly, Kelly just knew she would fly into a rage. And if Tilly is
enraged, she'll make Kendall's life a living hell.
"I'm getting out today, Kendall. Just you wait. I'll make sure the Colemans kick you out like you're trash."
Beep—
She got a new message from her spy in the company. It was the same set of photos, and her sneer turned into a
big, fat grin.
I still have some allies in the company. You can't get rid of me that easily, Kendall. She flipped through the photos
and sent them all to Yasmine. Brian might have told her about it, but still she wanted Yasmine to see it. She hoped
they could become friends again.
