Since Coleman Empire Holdings was a prominent corporation, the company had many subsidiaries. All of these subsidiaries had their own official Twitter accounts, which all followed the headquarters' official Twitter account.
Hence, one by one, all the general managers of their subsidiaries called Toddy for confirmation after Toddy announced the marriage on behalf of his boss, Dylan. Once these general managers were sure that the announcement was real, they immediately retweeted the official announcement about Dylan being married.
Likewise, the artists and celebrities who signed with the entertainment company under Coleman Empire Holdings also retweeted the post.
As Dylan thought, his official announcement soon made it into the top trending topics.
He didn't know whether it had any impact on other districts and cities, but he knew it would blow everyone's minds off like the effect of a hurricane in Orapolis.
In the meantime, Kendall didn't bother to know what the outside world had become. After having her dinner, she allowed Dylan to drop her off at the Orapolis Etiquette Institute.
She didn't ask Dylan to wait for her. Instead, she asked him to return home for rehabilitation first and thought about asking Henry instead to come pick her up once she finished her class.
"I'll pick you up after I'm done with my rehabilitation."
Dylan gently helped his beloved wife to smoothen her clothes and said, "Go in and study hard. It would
only bring you benefits instead of harm."
"I know, Dylan. Well then, I'll go in first."
Kendall quickly kissed his cheek. Then, she turned around and walked into the Orapolis Etiquette Institute.
Dylan only asked Ronnie to push him back to the car after he could no longer spot her figure.
After making the official announcement, Dylan's phone was rather quiet. That was because no one dared to call and ask him. Instead, all of them called Toddy, who was Dylan's executive secretary cum executive special assistant.
In the meantime, Kendall received a lot of missed calls. However, since she had muted her phone, she didn't notice those missed calls at all.
As for those who wanted to contact Kendall for verification, they contacted Kendall's mother, Charlotte, instead after they were unable to reach her.
Still, none could beat the speed of the entertainment reporters in Orapolis as they acted even faster than the rest. At this moment, the reporters were already flocking outside the Parker Residence and frightened the servants in the Parker Residence. It left the servants with no choice to hurriedly close the gate in an attempt to prevent the entertainment reporters from barging in.
At the same time, Charlotte also received numerous phone calls and it was only then did she know that Dylan had officially announced to the public that he and Kendall were married. This son-in-law of ours sure likes to catch us by surprise!
"Yes, it's true. Kendall and Master Dylan had registered their marriage a month ago. They were too busy to make an official announcement at that time. Yes, yes, I'll definitely invite you to their wedding by then."
God knew how many times Charlotte had repeated the same words. She kept answering the same thing to the point that her lips felt sore.
"Mrs. Parker, what should we do? There are so many reporters flocking outside. I didn't even realize there were so many reporters in Orapolis!"
The servant waited for Charlotte to hang up the call with another old friend before speaking.
Massaging her temples, Charlotte asked, "Is Kendall still not answering her phone?"
"We called every ten minutes, but Young Mistress Kendall didn't answer."
"What about Master Dylan? Did you guys call him?"
The servant replied, "We don't know Master Dylan's number. We called his company to ask, but it's after working hours now, so we can't inquire about anything."
Besides Dylan's phone, the servants didn't know Toddy's contact number.
In fact, these servants wouldn't even have the chance to see Dylan if it wasn't for Kendall, who went to the Coleman Residence to reject his marriage proposal and brought up the series of matters that happened afterward. They also thought that they would never interact with Dylan in their entire lives.
Hence, naturally, they wouldn't go around and inquire about Dylan and Toddy's phone numbers. Hence, it also explained why they couldn't inquire anything about the current situation.
Charlotte thought for a while and answered, "Since it was announced by the official Twitter account of Coleman Empire Holdings, Mr. Heller must have received orders from Master Dylan. I guess there's nothing else for us to hide."
With that, she got up and instructed the servant, "Carry a few boxes of water and follow me out. We're going to distribute them to the reporters. They have been waiting outside for such a long time on such a hot day, so they should be feeling parched."
"Yes, Mrs. Parker."
"Also, have someone head out and buy some watermelons. We'll treat the reporters with some watermelons so that they can cool off in this heat."
"Yes, Mrs. Parker."
After that, several servants carried a few boxes of bottled water and followed Charlotte out.
"Mrs. Parker."
Two drivers and servants were staying guard at the gate of the residence to prevent the reporters from jumping over the wall.
In reality, they were over-thinking.
Even if the reporters really wanted to know the truth, they didn't dare to climb over the walls of the Parker Residence. After all, this was the maiden home of Kendall, Young Mistress of the Coleman Family.
Even a fool could clearly observe the doting look on Dylan's face in the photo uploaded alongside the official announcement tweet. Therefore, these reporters also naturally saw the love Dylan had for Kendall.
If Master Dylan doesn't pamper her, how can the Young Mistress of the Coleman Family be able to kiss his cheek so affectionately and presumptuously? Let's cast aside whether Master Dylan is capable in carrying out sexual activities. In short, the relationship between the young couple is very good. So, it's better for us not to provoke the Young Mistress of the Coleman Family.
"Open the gate," Charlotte ordered.
Once the gate of the residence was opened, Charlotte asked the servant to distribute the bottled water to the reporters. With a smile on her face, she said to everyone present, "The weather is burning hot, and I'm sure everyone is tired after waiting for a long time. Here. Drink some water first. I'll have my people buy some watermelons. Later, I'll treat you all with some watermelons."
"Thanks Mrs. Parker."
One after another, the reporter thanked Charlotte.
At once, Charlotte replied, "You're welcome. It's what I should do."
"Mrs. Parker, regarding the news tweeted by the official Twitter account of Coleman Empire Holdings about Master Dylan and your daughter are married, is it true?"
"When did they register their marriage and obtain their marriage certificate?"
"Why didn't they announce anything for so long after they had registered their marriage?"
"Mrs. Parker, didn't your daughter personally reject the alliance marriage proposed by the Coleman Family? Why did she suddenly change her mind? Does she think Master Dylan is better than the Young Master of the Whittle Family?"
"Mrs. Parker, what's your opinion regarding Master Dylan being your son-in-law? Do you guys mind the fact that Master Dylan has a physical defect?"
One after another, the reporters' question caught Charlotte aback.
All the questions asked were sharp and straight to the point.
Even so, Charlotte maintained the smile on her face and she signaled everyone to settle down with the raise of her hand.
After the reporters quieted down, she raised her voice and said, "Master Dylan and my daughter, Kendall, were indeed married a month ago. So, it's absolutely true that they are married."
"As for why they didn't announce it immediately, that's their decision, and we, as parents, respect our children's decision."
"Regarding Kendall's affairs with Master Dylan, that's her privacy, and it's inconvenient for me to answer. Also, my husband and I are extremely satisfied to have a son-in-law like Master Dylan. No matter what Master Dylan's health condition is, as long as it's someone whom my daughter likes, we will accept it. After all, our family is very open-minded, and we will respect our children's decisions as parents."
While Charlotte was being besieged by reporters, the situation was tense on the Coleman Family's side. Tilly was fuming with anger and no one in the Coleman Manor dared to move a muscle or breathe.
Like Charlotte, several madams of the Coleman Family had also received a lot of calls asking for verification.
It annoyed them so much that they ended up switching off their phones.
At this moment, in the low-key and luxurious hall of the central main house, Tilly kept slamming her hand on the coffee table. With a livid expression, she scolded, "Dylan didn't even inform us beforehand and simply made the announcement on Twitter via the official Twitter account of Coleman Empire Holdings! I'm vexed!"
"It must be Kendall's idea," Emily suggested bitterly.
Grabbing Tilly, who wanted to slam her hand on the coffee table, Alice defended Kendall after she listened to Emily's words. "Mom! How is it possible that Kendall has such a great ability? Do you think this official announcement can be made without Dylan's consent and instructions? Can you stop blaming everything on Kendall?"
"Ally, are you defending that bumpkin right now?"
"Mom! Although Kendall grew up in the country, she has always been upright and has never done anything shameful. Mom, you're the wife of the eldest son of the Coleman Family and have always been a well-mannered person. Can you stop referring to Kendall as a bumpkin? That term not only insults Kendall, but it also damages your image as a noble lady."
When Emily heard Alice's words, she felt a deep sense of frustration in her heart.
