Kendall found Alice and requested the latter to show Amelia around. Alice agreed with her request without a second thought.
Once the worries were lifted from her mind, Kendall got back to Dylan and they began to stroll around the horse farm.
"Dylan."
"Yes?"
"Your family is being serious about setting up the environment. Even though this place operates as a horse farm, the view surrounding it is beautiful with the flowers and greenery, or the stone pavements and fountains. Moreover, the ancient-styled corridors are nice to admire too. It's a nice place to visit even if someone is not interested in horse riding."
Not only did the place have a strategic layout, it also featured other entertainment facilities for its younger visitors. Considering the children wouldn't dare try out to ride a horse, there was a children's playground available to them.
Listening to her statements, Dylan scanned the area before smiling at her and explaining, "Robert is positioning the horse farm as a tourist attraction. I must say his plans are going well."
The horse farm had provided the Coleman Empire Holdings with a huge profit every year since Robert took over it.
"I can't tell Robert has a business acumen although he is young."
"I think all of us are good at making money. Robert is my youngest uncle's eldest son and he's the thirteenth oldest among us as he's turning twenty-five this year. He has a pair of younger twin brothers and the two are the same age as Alice, only older than her by half a year. They went abroad for further study since they and Alice graduated from university together last year, but they will be back for special occasions."
Kendall gaped at the number of cousins Dylan had. "There are fifteen males among the cousins?"
Embarrassment caught up with her as she thought of not being able to recognize all of his cousins even though she had married into the Ford Family for a long time.
"Yes. My Grandma has five sons. My father and his brothers each thought of having a daughter to accompany Grandma, but ended up having many sons instead. That's how it became fifteen of us in the end." Even Dylan himself found the number of his relatives overwhelming.
Fortunately, the Ford Family was a huge family with abundant resources to raise all the grandsons, or else his grandmother would wear herself out in taking care of them.
"Alice must be the most precious family member in the household."
Dylan chuckled at that. "You bet. She's been pampered with the most love since young. Not only are the elders spoiling her, our brothers also treat her with care. Back when she was studying, all of us brothers would send her to school together every semester. It was quite a crowd."
From what he told her, Kendall could make the scene out even in her imagination.
Alice's future husband must have a stronger heart than most and promise not to fight with her, or else the Ford brothers will definitely not let him off!
"I can see the Fords treasure their daughter. We should have a daughter in the future too!" Kendall suggested in anticipation.
Our daughter will no doubt be cute. Too bad she won't be the same baby from my previous life, though.
As if he was thinking of something, the smile slipped from Dylan's face when he fell into pondering. After a moment, he murmured, "I think our firstborn would be a cute girl, just like the one in your dream."
Kendall was taken aback by his confession. If my baby would choose me as her mother again in this life, I will protect her at all costs. Besides, she will live a happy life with Dylan as her father.
"Me too. I hope we will have a daughter as adorable as the girl in my dream." Kendall agreed with a soft tone and her gaze fell into the distance, as if she was watching her previous life.
Reincarnation changed people and things. At the moment, Kendall was living her second life differently from the last. Baby, it seems like we'll never see each other again.
Dylan then asked gently, "Whom does the girl in your dream look like? Does she look more like you or the father?"
A hint of gentleness could be found in Kendall's tone when she answered, "She looks like me very much."
In her previous life, she wasn't aware that her baby wasn't related to Jackson precisely because the baby looked too much like her and nothing like the father.
Dylan raised his head to observe her. She will look like you, you say?
"Is Frank really her father in your dream?" Dylan didn't realize he was asking it with a twinge of jealousy.
After all, Kendall was his wife. He would like all of her attention on him to the point where she would even dream of him instead of another man.
"Dylan, it was only a dream." Even though Kendall consoled him with gentle words to change the topic, she was apologizing to him deep down. She didn't mean to tell him lies, but no sane person would believe in things such as reincarnation, not even until she herself experienced it.
There was no way a man of science like Dylan would believe in reincarnation.
Therefore, she could only tell him the stories in the form of dreams.
"I understand they were all dreams, or else I won't let Frank get away easily."
Kendall lowered her head and pressed a kiss onto his cheek before she took a step back and giggled. "Dylan, I like it when you're jealous."
"You're proud of it?"
"Nope, but I'm happy to see your words backfire."
Dylan was speechless at her critics. After all, he was the one who spoke the words in an absolute manner without leaving any space for discussion in the first place. He left no scope in his words in the beginning, but now his words were backfiring on him.
"I'm not sure if the baby belongs to him. He was the one who dreamed of us together and told me he was the father of the baby. However, I had never talked to him once in my dream. Among all of our limited encounters, I was looking at him from a distance."
It was precisely what happened in her first life.
Dylan allowed the silence to hang in the air instead of answering.
Maybe God is trying to tell me something if Frank is having a similar dream.
Dylan couldn't guess what fate was trying to imply, but he was desperate to find out the true identity of the culprit, who was able to involve him and Frank in the wicked game.
Frank and Dylan were among the most renowned young talents in Orapolis. They were counted as the top men in terms of their capabilities, intelligence, and influence. However, Dylan couldn't think of a name who could put him and Frank onto the chessboard as pawns at the same time.
Even though Kendall was married to Dylan in reality and had no ties with Frank or was even pregnant with Frank's child, Dylan was aware that he had to keep an eye on the unknown person behind everything due to all the hints.
"Dylan?"
Collecting his thoughts, he decided to change the topic. "Let's go, Kendall. You should find Alice and Jane and change into attire for horse riding. I'll ask someone to help you choose the most obedient horse."
"You don't need my company anymore?"
A laugh escaped from him. "I brought you here expecting you would ride them. Ronnie and the others will accompany me. You should enjoy yourself."
He stopped for a moment before continuing, "There's more time awaiting us in the future anyway."
Kendall no longer declined his kind gesture as she had longed to try it out by watching the others on the horse from the side.
The interaction between Dylan and Kendall brought a smile to the onlookers.
Meanwhile, a man was riding a horse next to Toddy as their horses galloped forward. He tilted his head at his companion and shot a question. "It seems like Master Dylan has taken a liking to his wife."
Toddy turned to look at the couple in the distance and laughed. "Of course. He even announced their relationship to the public. He's bringing her here on vacation to introduce her to his social circle."
"Didn't that second daughter of the Parker Family threaten to kill herself at the beginning in opposition to the marriage?"
The man who was speaking, Clifford from the Knight Family, was one of Dylan's friends. He was the fourth son of the Knight Family in Albarife. The Knight Family had always been doing business with the Colemans, and Clifford was the person in charge of his family.
"Mr. Knight, the outcome is what matters. We don't dwell on the progress."
Toddy's words weren't providing any assurance as Clifford couldn't help but worry. "Are you not afraid of her trying to manipulate Master Dylan?"
