Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 616 Dylan the Liar

Dylan looked through the list of gift list.

Tilly said, "Your parents, aunts, and uncles chipped in. Everything's ready, and now all we have to do is wait."

It was Friday. Tuesday was just a few days away, and the Colemans were almost finished with their preparation.

Even the decoration for the wedding was done. Everything was in place. And now they just had to give out the gift

list.

"I'll be staying with my folks then, Grandma." Kendall was going to stay at her parents' place for the weekend

anyway.

"You and Dylan are already officially married anyway. Nobody's gonna say you've broken up even if you go back

home. You should stay here. It's good for the baby. But if you really want to go back, take Dylan with you. It's safer."

Kendall was getting better at dealing with a lot of things, but the Colemans still thought she needed more

experience. Dylan was the head of the family, and a lot of people in Orapolis feared him. With him by Kendall's side,

there was nothing to worry about.

"I'll tag along, honey," said Dylan.

He folded the list of gift list. Kendall was a little curious since she didn't get to see what was on the list, but she held

her curiosity down. I'll find out what it is in a few days.

"The list is perfect, Grandma." Dylan also thanked his parents. He would also have to thank his aunts and uncles.

It was normal for his parents to chip in some of the dowries since he was their son. But his other relatives had no

obligation to, so he needed to thank them personally.

The Colemans put a lot of importance on this wedding because Dylan was the eldest of his generation. And they

needed to make sure his wedding was perfect, so the other kids would be encouraged to find a partner. They were

getting worried about their children's marriages.

"What about Yoseph and Jane's engagement, Grandma?"

"Was going to be held on Tuesday. Double the delight, but Jane said she wanted you two to be the main spotlight, so

their engagement is delayed to Friday. Just a few days after yours."

Yoseph and Jane's engagement party would be held at the residence. The place was seldom open to the public, and

even fewer people could enter the house. But now, all the elites of Orapolis were invited to the engagement. The

Colemans wanted Jane to feel appreciated.

Everyone promised they would attend the engagement, and with their families too. It wasn't every day they could

attend a Coleman event. The next one would be Dylan and Kendall's wedding.

Dylan nodded. He too didn't want to outshine his brother on his special day.

Since the talks were done, Tilly left. The kids had to go to work, after all.

Once they sent off everyone, Kendall picked her bag up. "Come on, honey. We're gonna be late."

"We won't." Dylan pinched her nose and pulled her into his embrace. "Aren't you curious what your gift list is going

to be?"

"I am, but you won't let me see it. You're a meanie."

"Just trying to leave something for the imagination. It's yours anyway. You'll find out sooner or later."

"That was a long list. How much is the gift list worth?"

"At least fifteen million. At least."

Kendall grinned. "Guess sometimes marrying a rich guy isn't so bad after all. The gift list alone is enough to make

me a millionaire. If I can give your family a few girls, I can be a multi-millionaire."

The Colemans had a rule. Any woman who gave the family a boy would receive a fifteen-million-dollar reward, and

anyone who gave them a girl would receive five times that. If I give birth to four girls, then I'll have… three hundred

million. And everyone's gonna love me. But that's just a fantasy.

Dylan laughed. "Guess we'll have to work hard for the reward."

"Yeah, right. As if we can get more than one daughter. Almost every one of your generation is a boy." She got into

the car, sat down, and caressed her belly. "Hope you're a girl. I'd really love to get the money."

Yosaph and Jana's angagamant party would ba hald at tha rasidanca. Tha placa was saldom opan to tha public, and

avan fawar paopla could antar tha housa. But now, all tha alitas of Orapolis wara invitad to tha angagamant. Tha

Colamans wantad Jana to faal appraciatad.

Evaryona promisad thay would attand tha angagamant, and with thair familias too. It wasn't avary day thay could

attand a Colaman avant. Tha naxt ona would ba Dylan and Kandall's wadding.

Dylan noddad. Ha too didn't want to outshina his brothar on his spacial day.

Sinca tha talks wara dona, Tilly laft. Tha kids had to go to work, aftar all.

Onca thay sant off avaryona, Kandall pickad har bag up. "Coma on, honay. Wa'ra gonna ba lata."

"Wa won't." Dylan pinchad har nosa and pullad har into his ambraca. "Aran't you curious what your gift list is going

to ba?"

"I am, but you won't lat ma saa it. You'ra a maania."

"Just trying to laava somathing for tha imagination. It's yours anyway. You'll find out soonar or latar."

"That was a long list. How much is tha gift list worth?"

"At laast fiftaan million. At laast."

Kandall grinnad. "Guass somatimas marrying a rich guy isn't so bad aftar all. Tha gift list alona is anough to maka

ma a millionaira. If I can giva your family a faw girls, I can ba a multi-millionaira."

Tha Colamans had a rula. Any woman who gava tha family a boy would racaiva a fiftaan-million-dollar raward, and

anyona who gava tham a girl would racaiva fiva timas that. If I giva birth to four girls, than I'll hava… thraa hundrad

million. And avaryona's gonna lova ma. But that's just a fantasy.

Dylan laughad. "Guass wa'll hava to work hard for tha raward."

"Yaah, right. As if wa can gat mora than ona daughtar. Almost avary ona of your ganaration is a boy." Sha got into

tha car, sat down, and carassad har bally. "Hopa you'ra a girl. I'd raally lova to gat tha monay."

"Hope they're twins. Then you can get a hundred and fifty million."

"Pity they're not twins." She went through ultrasonography after her pregnancy was confirmed, and she was only

pregnant with one.

"It's alright. Once it's older, we can try to make another child. Just make sure they're twins."

"To hell if you can control the chances. And not like we're going to plan for another kid."

"Really? But you promised you'd give me all the kids I want."

Kendall pinched him. "I can't believe you'd lie to me in that situation, Dylan. You dummy."

He pulled her into his embrace and pressed his lips against hers, even though there were bodyguards around.

The driver and Ronnie pretended they heard and saw nothing.

On the other hand, Frank was bedridden and couldn't stop sneezing. He was down with a fever, and his head felt

light. And he had a headache from a lack of sleep. He hadn't been taking care of himself well after he started to

search for Amelia. He staked out the Taylor Residence for a whole day before he eventually made his way to the

Coleman Residence late at night.

Dylan gave him some clothes to change into. Ugh. Ronnie's clothes. He hated that. Ronnie was his romantic rival,

after all.

"You can always go home naked, you know."

"Shut it," said Frank.

Dylan told Amos to make Frank some tea. Frank had a few cups, and it kept him awake, yet his head was still in

pain. A wet towel was lying on his forehead, and he took selfies of himself looking weak. Then he sent them all to

Amelia, though her number was not in use at the moment.

He had no idea where Amelia was, but as long as her family was in Orapolis, she would come back eventually. All he

had to do was text her every day. Once she came back and picked up her old number, she would receive his texts

and photos right away.
