"Kendall, don't you want to call Master Dylan?"
Amelia asked while driving.
Putting her phone into her pocket, she replied, "I don't think so. I'm going to let him cool down a bit."
Hearing this, Amelia did not try to persuade her any further.
Then, she brought Kendall to a restaurant that she frequented in the past.
After ordering a lot of dishes, Kendall said to Amelia, "It's my treat today."
"No, no, I'll be treating you instead. It's only because of me that you fell out with Master Dylan. Just let me pay for this meal. Take it as me making it up to you," Amelia explained guiltily.
Not wanting to argue about who got to foot the bill, Kendall replied, "It really has nothing to do with you, Amelia. You don't have to feel guilty about it. It's a problem between us. We just don't know each other well enough. After all, we literally got married in a flash with no prior understanding of each other before our wedding. Even if you didn't make that call, we would still argue at any moment."
Every husband and wife had to have a period where they disagreed with each other.
Even those who knew each other well would still have the occasional spat.
"Should I order a bottle of beer?"
Kendall asked her friend.
Disagreeing with her choice, Ameilia replied, "Kendall, it's not a good method to use alcohol as a substitute for your worries."
"Don't worry. I won't get drunk."
Kendall was confident in her alcohol tolerance. "I'm just going to order two bottles. With my level, those two bottles will be more like soda pops."
Amelia finally conceded.
Nonetheless, because she had to drive, she could not accompany her friend to drink.
After the dishes arrived, Kendall drank while eating, and soon enough, the two bottles were emptied. Seeing this, she ordered another two more, as Amelia, who knew she was in a bad mood, only reminded her to stop drinking after these two bottles.
The upset Kendall then proceeded to gorge herself, finishing the portion meant for two by herself. Amelia, on the other hand, barely ate as she looked at her friend devouring all the food.
After the four bottles were drunk by Kendall, Amelia would not budge on letting her order another one. It was only upon being reminded that she would need to find Jackson later to take back the gifts that Kendall stopped drinking.
On this side, Kendall was stuffing herself absentmindedly, while Dylan, who did not receive the call
from Kendall apologizing to her, was getting more and more sour. The people who saw him once he stepped foot into the Dynasty Hotel all wanted to avoid him. novelbin
Even though they were the same dishes with the same taste, Dylan kept finding everything bland while picking on the smallest of details. In the end, he even called the person who was managing the hotel, Yoseph.
Standing in front of the presidential private room, Yoseph asked Ronnie, "Ronnie, what's wrong with Dylan today? He used to have lunch here every day, but he had never once been this picky before. He's making our chefs feel like they're treading on thin ice."
Looking at the closed door, Ronnie made sure that Dylan could not hear what he was about to say before whispering, "The young master and young mistress had an argument."
Staring at him, Yoseph nearly questioned this loudly before remembering his terrifying brother was sitting inside. Covering his mouth quickly, he let it go, asking, "Why did they argue? Was it bad?"
He had eaten with his sister-in-law and Dylan before.
That day, Dylan paid special attention to Kendall, as he seemed to know everything she liked to eat and even kept piling food onto her plate.
Dylan obviously cares about her.
He knew that although that brother of his could be a bit cold sometimes, he would treat someone wholeheartedly if he liked them. Of course, when Dylan did that, he fully expected the other party to reciprocate the same sentiment too.
Put simply, Dylan was a very persistent individual in love, which incidentally, made him quite petty.
"The young master was enroute with the young mistress to have lunch here when he kicked her out of the car in the middle of the road. So, Young Master Yoseph, do you know how bad is it now?"
Speechless, Yoseph could only comment, "... It's that bad, huh?"
Sighing, Ronnie continued, "The young mistress received a call from Miss Taylor, who told her that the young master from the Parker Family was going to marry the young mistress from the Caddel Family, which stunned her for a second. And then, the young master grew jealous upon seeing this and would not forgive her no matter how she explained herself."
Yoseph replied, "Even a fool knows how Kendall feels about Jackson in this city. Isn't it normal for my brother to be jealous?"
Anybody could see that Kendall married my brother with ulterior motives. As for what that motive was, she did not say it to him. So, can you really blame him for reacting like this?
If it was to achieve what they needed, and they did not catch feelings for each other, this would be of no issue.
Yet, it just so happens that Dylan is starting to feel something for Kendall and even announced her status as the eldest young mistress in our family. I believe that in the near future, the whole of Orapolis will come to know her new identity too.
At this point, can Dylan not be jealous, seeing how Kendall would still fall in a daze over Jackson?
"Young Master Yoseph, I had been following the young master for so long and was the person to see them get together and progress their relationship to what it is today. Maybe the young mistress really used to love Jackson, but from the moment she started to force Young Master Dylan to marry her, I could see that she had lost that feeling for Jackson."
Sighing, Ronnie continued, "The lunch break is almost over now, yet Young Master still hasn't taken a bite."
Once Dylan became like this, he would not eat, leading to severe consequences.
This only happened once, when he found out he would have to sit in a wheelchair after the accident. At that time, he would not eat, drink, or comply with the treatment, making the Coleman Family descend into chaos. In the end, Emily had to kneel down and beg Dylan.
"I'll be going in to take a look. If even I can't persuade him, you should quickly contact Kendall to let her come quickly. It was her mistake, so she should be the one to undo this mess."
With a sullen face, Ronnie replied, "Young Master Dylan forbids us from contacting her. He said that unless she were to contact him first, any of us who dared to contact the young mistress ourselves would have our phones smashed and fired."
Baffled, Yoseph let slip, "He really is a petty, stubborn mule."
Breathing in deeply, Yoseph entered the room.
Dylan was sitting at the table alone.
In actuality, today's menu had been changed, as Dylan was the one who ordered Ronnie to change the menu into dishes that Kendall liked. Even though she was not a picky person, she could not handle spicy foods, but she especially liked sour and sweet tasting dishes.
On the contrary, he did not like such dishes, yet he still changed them for her sake.
At that moment, facing a table of dishes that she liked, he would not eat them even if he was in his usual mood, let alone in a sour one.
Picking his fork up, he poked and messed around with all the dishes, but he still did not put anything in his mouth.
Taking a closer look, Yoseph could see the fried cod poked full of holes by his brother.
"Dylan."
Yoseph called out to him.
Not even looking at him, Dylan slammed his utensils on the table with a loud bang, scaring Yoseph.
