Dylan didn't stop her. However, he kept her painting and acknowledged, "Just give me this portrait, considering it's me that you drew."
"But I haven't finished drawing it yet."
"I don't mind."
Kendall paused for a while when she heard that before she replied, "Okay." It's fine with me as long as he doesn't mind.
Then, she pushed the wheelchair and helped him to sit down. After that, she pushed him out of the office.
In the past, Dylan would always head straight back home once he was off work. However, due to Kendall starting her class today, he decided that he wanted to take his beloved wife to the institute instead. Thus, he drove to the Dynasty Hotel for dinner instead.
The young couple never expected that they would encounter Adam again after Adam's deals were stolen by others.
One could imagine Adam's current mood after learning the fact that Zorn Holdings had robbed two of his company's business deals within a day.
This time, the company that backed out and refused to collaborate with Parker Corporation was Thompson Enterprise from Albarife. Due to the failure faced with their two business deals, Parker Corporation spent more effort in negotiating a cooperative deal with Thompson Enterprise. Yet, the
person-in-charge of Thompson Enterprise, Andrew Thompson, suddenly had second thoughts and declined Parker Corporation's collaboration offer.
When Andrew walked out of the Dynasty Hotel, Adam still didn't give up and ran after him. "President Thompson! President Thompson!"
What came into Kendall's sight was Adam chasing after a middle-aged man wearing a suit and a pair of leather shoes with an anxious look. Hearing the plea in Adam's voice, she felt sorry after thinking of the sacrifices he made for the company.
"Daddy!"
"Father!"
Both Dylan and Kendall called out to Adam almost in unison.
After calling out to Adam, she glanced at Dylan in shock. She was surprised because Dylan never took the initiative to reveal his relationship with her in front of outsiders.
Adam stopped chasing after Andrew when he heard those words. He turned to look in the direction of the voices. The moment he saw Dylan and Kendall, he forced a smile. "Master Dylan. Kendall. Are you two here for dinner?"
Meanwhile, the man whom Adam was chasing immediately stopped when he heard Adam calling Dylan's name. Andrew turned to look at Dylan and when he first saw Dylan in a wheelchair, he only felt that the other party was handsome yet pitiful for being confined to a wheelchair.
Could it be? Is it true? As he kept staring at the handsome young man, Andrew couldn't believe that he had come across Dylan Coleman, the God of the Orapolis' business circles.
Although Andrew came from Albarife and had never seen Dylan in real life before, he had heard so much about the man. He knew that anyone who operated business in Orapolis couldn't and didn't dare to offend Dylan. Otherwise, they would lose everything and become bankrupt.
"Father." With a warm yet solemn voice, Dylan asked, "What's going on?"
Adam looked at Andrew and just as he was about to answer Dylan, Andrew suddenly returned to the hotel. He walked to Adam and said to him with a smile, "President Parker, I rushed out earlier because I remembered there was an urgent matter that I needed to attend to. However, I just remembered that I've already dealt with it. President Parker, let's go back and continue discussing the collaborative deal."
There was a swift change in Andrew's attitude.
Adam was a smart guy. Seeing the instant change in Andrew's attitude, he understood that it was because Dylan addressed him as Father twice.
"Master Dylan, I'm here to discuss business affairs with President Thompson. A while ago, President Thompson said he had an urgent matter that he needed to attend to, so I was just seeing him off."
Immediately afterward, he said to Andrew again, "President Thompson, since everything is solved, shall we return to our seats and continue with our discussion regarding the collaborative deal?"
A smiling Andrew replied, "Sure. Sure." Later, he asked Adam, "Mr. Parker, are these your daughter and son-in-law?"
When Adam heard that, he looked at Dylan.
However, something Adam had never expected came true. Dylan actually took the initiative to reach out with his right hand and shake Andrew's hand courteously. "Nice meeting you, President Thompson. I'm President Parker's son-in-law."
Andrew stared at Dylan in shock. It really is Dylan Coleman!
At this rate, Andrew was feeling a little excited. He was glad that he heard Dylan addressing Adam as 'Father' and remained at the scene. Otherwise, he would have offended Dylan.
Out of his excitement, he immediately shook hands with Dylan. "Master Dylan, I have heard so much about you."
At this moment, he acted like an avid fan of Dylan. I can't believe that I can actually shake hands with Dylan! I've decided not to wash my right hand for a month.
Andrew wanted to keep this honor. In his mindset, he could ensure that his business bloomed in the future while he earned an abundance of money by doing so.
"Well then, Father, I won't interrupt you and President Thompson discussing business. Kendall and I will enjoy our meal first. Also, let me wish you two a happy collaboration beforehand"
Adam and Andrew both repeatedly nodded upon hearing that.
After that, Kendall pushed Dylan away just in time. Taking the elevator up to the top floor and entering Dylan's exclusive room, she thanked him.
"I've told you. You don't have to act like a total stranger with me. We're husband and wife after all."
He pulled her toward him and said in a doting manner, "Your business is my business. I'll punish you if you're acting like a stranger with me next time."
Listening to his words, Kendall smiled. "You can't bear to punish me. You'll only ask me to write a ten- thousand-word apology at most."
Watching as Dylan stared at her rosy lips, she understood what he was going to do within seconds. Hence, she smiled shamelessly. "In that case, I'll act more like a stranger to you and let you punish me in such a way more often."
Once he heard that, Dylan became speechless. This little cheeky girl!
Later, he took out his phone and called Toddy.
Seeing this, Kendall walked away sensibly.
However, she could still hear Dylan instructing Toddy. "Toddy, make an announcement on our company's official Twitter that Kendall and I are married. Just inform the public that we have registered our marriage for a month and we will choose a date to hold the wedding in due course. At that time, I'll invite everyone to witness my wedding with Kendall."
Among the many businesses operated by Coleman Empire Holdings, there was an entertainment company and the company had signed a lot of popular celebrities and artists. As long as Dylan officially announced the news on the company's official Twitter account, everyone would retweet it and the topic would rush to the top trending search topics. Everyone who had a Twitter account and loved following the top trending searches on that portal would know she was Dylan's wife.
After listening to Dylan's instructions, Kendall turned back abruptly. "Dylan, are you really sure you're going to make an official announcement?"
He didn't answer her right away. Instead, he hung up the phone and looked up at Kendall after Toddy had answered him. His eyes were glimpsing with affirmation and were full of affections.
"You won't mind that I make an official announcement one month later, right?"
At this moment, Kendall didn't know how she felt.
For Kendall, it was a good thing that Dylan decided to publicize their relationship because she didn't have to keep their marriage a secret anymore. Similarly, she also knew that things would be bad for her as there would be more conspiracies followed after her once Dylan publicized their marriage.
But on second thought, have I ever been afraid of those love rivals? The answer is no! Well, since I'm not afraid of them, why should I be afraid of Dylan officially announcing about us?
"No, I don't mind. What's your company's official Twitter account? I have a Twitter account too, but I don't have many followers. Dylan, do you have a Twitter account?"
"Yes, I do, but Toddy is the one who is usually responsible for helping me manage it. You don't have to
bother much about this. Toddy will arrange it."
As he spoke, Dylan pulled his beloved wife to let her sit on his lap. While wrapping one arm around her waist, he held his phone up with another hand. "Honey, smile sweetly. Let's take a selfie and send it to Toddy, asking him to post a photo of us when he makes the official announcement post. I want to let everyone recognize the face of my wife."
I shall see who will dare to bully my wife in the future!
And thus, Kendall smiled. However, when he was about to snap the photo, she kissed his cheek instead. Dylan pressed the snap button at once and captured such an intimate shot.
Dylan was also pretty satisfied with this.
After sending the photo to Toddy, he shoved his phone back into his pants pocket while reminding his beloved wife. "It's best that you mute your phone since you're going to be in your class later. That way, it won't affect you even if someone keeps calling you."
"Okay." Kendall smiled joyously like a mouse that successfully stole a cheese. Dylan just called me honey! Just like drinking a jar of honey, I feel a sweet sensation all over me as I listen to him calling me honey.
Toddy was highly efficient.
Soon, the official Twitter of Coleman Empire Holdings officially announced that their president was married. Although the post didn't mention them registering their marriage, an intimate photo of the couple was uploaded alongside the post. In the photo, Kendall was seen kissing Dylan's cheek.
Considering that everyone in Orapolis knew Dylan's temper, they instantly believed the authenticity of the official announcement after they saw the intimacy displayed by the couple in the photo. After all, who dares to kiss Master Dylan without his consent? I'm afraid that person will have his mouth stripped from their face if they ever do so.
Without a doubt, as soon as the official announcement was made, it set off waves of ripples like how a truckload of huge stones was poured into a calm lake.
