Chapter 117
Resignedly, Nelson said, "You know what Dad and Mum are like."
As her foster parents were used to the life of farmers, wanting them to stay cooped up inside all day
long would only make them feel uncomfortable. It was only by farming and doing manual labor that they
would feel alive again.
Kendall was speechless at this.
A while later, she left the hospital after being urged by Sally.
Nelson sent her out.
"Kendall."
While walking, he asked, "Did you and Kelly fight?"
"How did you know?"
Hearing this made Nelson ask, concerningly, "Why? Is it because she bullied you?"
In his eyes, Kendall was an arrogant and proud woman. Even though she had a high level in martial
arts, her straight-forward personality meant she offended others easily. On top of that, she grew up in
the countryside, so naturally she could not outwit Kelly, who grew up in the city.
"It's because I'm the real daughter of the Parker Family."
Not dull, Nelson instantly knew what Kendall was getting at.
"She's unable to hold it in just as you went to work at your family's company? That's your company.
Even though Parker is her last name right now, it should actually be Woods, as she's from our family."
"Nelson, you don't have to worry about the feud between us. No matter what, she's still your blood
sister, while I have gotten along with you as brother and sister for the last twenty-odd years. To you,
both of us are your sisters, so you'll end up offending either one of us no matter who you choose to
side with. Just stay neutral and don't intercept."
Kendall did not want to involve her brother in this fiasco.
Sighing, Nelson replied, "I couldn't help even if I wanted to. Oh right, Kendall, how are things between
you and that young master from the Coleman Family?"
Confused, Kendall asked, "What do you mean?"
"When Kelly was accompanying Mom at the hospital, she would keep going out to receive calls. Even
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthough she did this just to get away from us, I still managed to overhear that it was that very same
young master that was calling her. I didn't hear what they were talking about, but I could see that Kelly
had a very sweet expression whenever she was talking to him. Only couples would have those kinds of
expressions."
Nelson thought that Kelly wanted Kendall's lover for herself.
"Kendall, I know that you fancy the Young Master of the Colemans, but he has been acting so
intimately with Kelly behind your back. Not only do they call each other over ten times a day, they even
exchange messages often. No one would believe their relationship to be purely platonic. This man isn't
as reliable as you think he is. He's cheating on you right now. You should leave him as soon as
possible. There are so many good men in this world, so I believe that you can find one better than this
young master."
"Thanks for your reminder, Nelson. I'll be sure to watch out."
Putting her hands on her brother's shoulders, Kendall said as affectionately as they were before,
"Nelson, instead of caring about me, you should be caring about yourself. You're already 30. It's time
for you to marry someone already. Mom and Dad have been wanting that grandchild for a long time
now."
Tapping her forehead dotingly, Nelson replied, "You're even rushing my marriage now? My fated one
hasn't appeared yet. When she does, I'll be sure to marry her. For now, you can just wait for my
wedding invitation."
"I will."
Chatting happily, the siblings then exited the hospital.
Nelson only returned after watching Kendall get into the Campbell Family's car and leaving. Touching
his shoulder, he looked gently at the spot where she had just touched.
After exiting the hospital, Kendall ordered the driver to take her shopping, as she bought a tie and a set
of clothes for the presents in the afternoon and at night.
Since she was about to return to her birth parents' home, she had bought a set of clothes for her
parents as well.
Walking out onto the street with the presents in hand, she bumped into Yasmine. Or it could be said
that Yasmine seemed to have been waiting for her.
Yasmine had parked her car right next to the Campbell Family's. When Kendall saw her, she was
leaning against her own car while spinning her car keys round and round.
This made Kendall green with envy.
She liked spinning her car keys too, as it was a very soothing sound for her.
However, Dylan would not permit her to drive herself.
He had even crossed out giving her a luxury car in the betrothal gifts!
Her driving skills were actually very good, but it was only for external reasons that she went over the
speed limit twice and ended up getting into an accident.
"You're in a good mood, Miss Parker," said Yasmine snarkily, upon seeing Kendall approach her.
Smiling, Kendall replied, "Are you not in a good mood, Miss Zorn?"
This made her expression darken.
Yasmine was in a very bad mood.
This was due to the incident that happened at her birthday party yesterday. She hosted a birthday party
and invited all sorts of famous people. It was supposed to be a joyful event, but after Jackson ruined it,
the party had to end early, making her absolutely livid and wishing that she had stabbed that pervert.
He had actually dared to molest Krystal at her birthday party.
Even though her brothers all said that Jackson was framed by someone, this did not do anything to
soothe her anger.
Who would frame him?
The first person Yasmine suspected was Kendall, since it was her that wanted to get married to
Jackson the most.
Kelly had told her that Rosemi wanted Kelly when she brought up the matter of marriage with her
mother. So, in a panic, Kendall decided to set Jackson up, as she thought she could only get married to
him if the plan succeeded.
Yasmine did not care about who Kendall wanted to set up, so long as she did not do it at an event she
was hosting.
Nevertheless, Kendall had crossed the line.

Yasmine could not stomach this if she did not get an explanation from Kendall.
In addition to this, there was another reason why Yasmine was so upset.
When she opened up Dylan's present, she found out that it was actually just a vase.
Even though it was a pretty vase, it was just a worthless, ordinary vase.
If Dylan had gifted her an expensive vase, she might have treated it like an antique. However, gifting
her such an ordinary vase was like insulting her to be just like this vase, beautiful yet useless.
Nobody could be happy upon receiving such a gift.
On top of that, she grew even angrier after recalling that Kendall was staying with Dylan, so she
focused her anger on her.
Ordering her people to spy on Kendall, she had been waiting for her to be all alone, so that she could
take her revenge.
Ring, ring.
Kendall's phone rang.
Taking it out, she found out that Dylan had sent her a message.
It was Ronnie's contact info, as Dylan wanted her to add him on Whatsapp so that Ronnie could send
the evidence of Jackson planting the drugs.
"Miss Zorn, I have something I need to deal with. Please, give me two minutes."
Confused, Yasmine wanted to kick her phone away at that moment, but she remembered that she was
in a skirt, so it would be unwise for her to do that. Besides, the driver of the Coleman Family was
watching them, so she held it in for now.
After Kendall added Ronnie on Whatsapp, he proceeded to send a few video clips to her.
One of them was Jackson spiking the drink.
The second one was Jackson telling a servant of the Zorn family to send the spiked drink over to
Kendall.
The last one showed Kendall moving around in the house.
After watching these three clips, Kendall could only be in awe of how capable Dylan's bodyguards
were.
She did not know that Jackson was there, but Dylan's men had even captured him spiking the drink
clearly.
No wonder everyone would say that one could offend everybody but not Dylan.
Kendall was suddenly grateful for how nice Dylan was treating her. Otherwise, she would have
perished multiple times by now.
