Chapter 236
At Coleman Empire Holdings, Dylan received a call from his sister. Regardless of what his sister said on the phone, his expression remained the same, and he only replied nonchalantly, "I understand. Thank you, Ally."
Embarrassed by her brother thanking her, Alice asked, "Dylan, you won't misunderstand Kendall, right?"
Dylan stopped his work, but he didn't put his pen down and played with it instead. "I won't."
"That's good. Dylan, you shouldn't blame Mom either."
Alice didn't want him to misunderstand Kendall, but she didn't want him to blame Emily either.
Dylan fell silent before he said, "Since Dad has convinced Mom, I won't do anything."
Fortunately, his father was an open-minded parent and was able to convince Emily. Though this was thanks to the many rules of the Coleman Family. The women of the Coleman Family were bound by the rules. If they wanted more freedom, it depended on how deeply their men felt about them.
"Dylan, um, can I go to work like Kendall?"
Dylan thought for a while and replied, "You have to think about what you want to do. Kendall has a clear goal for going to work. If you don't have a goal and just want to pass time, forget about it. You can do that at Pet Palace."
His sister especially liked to keep pets, and most of the pets in Pet Palace belonged to her.
"Isn't the point of going to work to get paid? What other goals do I need? How about I do my best to climb my way up and steal your position as the president?"
Dylan was amused by his sister's words. "If you have such a goal, then I'll strive to let you join our company headquarters."
"Actually, Dylan, forget it. Even Yoseph and the others aren't capable of taking your position." Alice was still self-aware.
"Let me think about what I want to do carefully. Dylan, when I figure it out, you have to fully support me in my business."
Dylan replied dotingly, "Okay."
"Then, I won't bother you anymore." Alice voluntarily hung up, not daring to take up too much of his time.
After putting down his phone, Dylan shook his head and smiled, murmuring in a low voice, "Kendall, understand that if I make an exception for you, the consequences would be grave."
It would go against the Coleman Family's rules and make the women of the Coleman Family start to 'rebel.'
Knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door. It was Ronnie.
Dylan said, "Come in."
Ronnie pushed the door open and walked toward Dylan, saying respectfully, "Young Master Dylan, Miss Caddel went to look for Young Mistress Kendall."
"Uh-huh."
"I don't know what they discussed, but Young Mistress Kendall angrily slapped Miss Caddel across her face."
Dylan hummed again before saying something that made Ronnie's jaw drop. "I wonder if her hand hurts. She should leave it to me to do this kind of thing. My hands are strong and my skin is thick, so I wouldn't feel anything even if I gave Miss Caddel a few more slaps."
Ronnie was rendered speechless at Dylan's protectiveness.
"Ronnie, ask someone to tell President Caddel to mind his daughter properly. If she makes my wife angry and hurts my wife's hand again, I will make them suffer so much that even the Zorns wouldn't be able to save them."
"Yes, sir." Once Ronnie received the order, he hurried away to carry it out.
After sitting quietly for a minute, Dylan devoted himself to his heavy work again, and the morning slowly went by.
What would Dylan look like while holding a large bouquet of bright red roses? It would definitely be a sight to behold for the people of Orapolis.
Five minutes before Kendall got off work, Dylan's designated convoy arrived at the entrance of Parker Corporation. In the past, Dylan would ask Ronnie to pick Kendall up, but he came over in person that day, and made it a big deal as well. After he got out of the car, he sat in his wheelchair and allowed Ronnie to push him slowly toward the company while he held a large bouquet of bright roses in his arms, making for a dazzling sight.
Everyone in Orapolis knew that Dylan didn't like plants, and there were only a few landscaping trees in his residence. There used to be people who bet that someone like Dylan would never send flowers to any woman. Either way, they heard that even when his most beloved sister had her birthday, he, the eldest brother, did not give her a bouquet of flowers. If he acted like that to his immediate family, it would be even more impossible for other women to receive any flowers from him. However, he broke his record that day.
Kendall was still busy, but Jessie told her that Dylan had come to pick her up.
"Master Dylan is here? Wait, he came in person? But I didn't receive any calls from him."
Kendall took out her phone and looked through her call history. Indeed, she did not receive any calls from Dylan that morning.
Jessie smiled and said, "Why would I lie to you? Master Dylan is waiting for you to get off work at the entrance. He also brought you a surprise. Hurry up, don't keep Master Dylan waiting for a long time."
"What surprise did he bring me?" Kendall muttered dubiously.
As long as it wasn't scary, it was fine. After all, that man was so arrogant that he had never given her a serious gift.
Jessie asked amusedly, "Is Master Dylan that… dense?"
Kendall would not badmouth Dylan in front of outsiders, so after giving her a smile, she quickly grabbed her bag and said to Jessie, "Jessie, I'll be leaving three minutes early today, then."
"When you leave the office, it'll be right on time for you to get off work, so it wouldn't count as leaving early."
Kendall took her bag and hurried downstairs. As soon as she left the office building, she was amazed by the scene at the entrance. The bouquet was so big that it covered Dylan's body.
Meanwhile, the media was particularly well-informed, for as soon as Kendall walked out of the building, she saw many reporters taking pictures. The bodyguards took no action, so they must have received orders from Dylan. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for entertainment reporters. Naturally, they had to snap a few more pictures.
"Master Dylan." Kendall couldn't contain her elation, and broke into a smile before she walked to Dylan. She had a ravishing face and a bright smile, making her more beautiful than any flower to Dylan.
Meanwhile, the reporters hurriedly took pictures of her joyful expression.
"Master Dylan, you're here."
Dylan stood up. The reporters were stunned, but they quickly snapped more pictures. Dylan stood up! This was probably just as shocking as Dylan's announcement of his marriage last night.
"I'm here to pick you up from work," Dylan said in a low voice.
His dark, intense eyes were locked on his beautiful wife's bright smile as he handed the large bouquet of flowers he was holding to Kendall. In an instant, the flowers covered her body.
"I know you never liked roses, but roses represent love, so I still prepared roses for you. There are ninety-nine flowers here. I hope you like it."
Kendall hurriedly hugged the ninety-nine roses and smiled sweetly. "Master Dylan, even if you give me a blade of grass, I'll treat it as my treasure as long as it's a present from you, much less ninety-nine roses."
Roses were never her favorite flowers, but from today onward, she decided to make roses her favorite.
Dylan looked happy that she liked his gift. He had no idea that giving a bouquet of flowers to someone he liked would not only make them happy, but it would make him happy as well.
