Ronnie received the items and said respectfully, "Yes, sir."
He left the office and started to make the arrangements right away.
According to Dylan's orders, he crushed the keys and binoculars, then had its powder sent over to Mendelson Group.
When Ronnie arrived at the company, it was already working hours for the employees.
The trailer, which towed the car with four flat tires over, was just a minor matter, and it would not reach Frank.
However, Frank's secretary received word that Dylan's personal bodyguard wanted to meet Frank.
"Dylan's personal bodyguard wants to meet me? Which one?"
Although everyone in the Mendelson Group thought that the bodyguards' names were hilarious, none dared to make fun of their names right in front of them.
The secretary answered, "It should be Ronnie."
Frank frowned before he said coldly, "Ask him to come in."
Ronnie was Dylan's most trusted bodyguard, and he would be seen near Dylan wherever Dylan went.
A few minutes later, Ronnie strode into Frank's office behind the secretary.
Frank stopped working on his task at hand and watched as Ronnie entered his office with confident steps.
"Mr. Mendelson," Ronnie greeted Frank politely.
"Have a seat."
Frank treated Ronnie in the same manner.
Ronnie was donned in a black suit and did not look like a bodyguard, be it from his appearance or temperament. Apparently, he came from a wealthy family too, but he chose to be a bodyguard.
"Thanks, Mr. Mendelson. Young Master Dylan wanted me to deliver something to you, and I will leave as soon as my task is complete."
Then, Ronnie placed a packet of powder on Frank's desk.
It puzzled Frank. He pointed to the packet of silvery powder and asked, "Dylan asked you to send this over to me? What is it?"
"It was a car key and a pair of binoculars."
Ronnie ignored how his answer made Frank's gaze turn gloomy as he continued, "Mr. Mendelson, I've handed the item personally to you and completed my task. I will be leaving now."
Then, Ronnie turned and unhesitatingly left the office.
His steps were calm, and his back was straight.
Although he was just Dylan's bodyguard, he was definitely much more charming than the average man.
On the other hand, Frank was staring at the packet of powder with a terrible expression on his face.
…
On the other hand, Kelly wore a mask as she sat in a gynecologist's office in the hospital. The doctor was attending to another patient now, and it would be her turn later.
She was slightly nervous.
With the excuse of having a business meeting, she left the office, wanting to use this time to abort the baby.
A moment later, it was her turn.
"Doctor."
Kelly said softly, "I've been pregnant for about six weeks, but I don't want this baby. I can still take medication to abort the baby, can't I?"
The doctor initially had a kind look on her face, but her expression turned terrible when she heard Kelly's words and asked solemnly, "Does your husband agree to the abortion?"
Kelly was stunned for a moment before replying, "He does. Unfortunately, we are too busy with work, and this isn't the time for us to have a baby."
The doctor reprimanded, "If you don't plan on giving birth yet, the both of you should've used protection back then. Abortion is bad for your health as well."
Kelly lowered her head and stayed silent.
Jackson tricked her into sleeping with him back then.
After that, she did not take any contraceptive pills, but she did not expect that she would get pregnant.
The doctor asked her a few questions and said, "We'll let you get an ultrasound first to confirm your pregnancy period, then we will decide if you can get a medicated abortion."
"Okay."
"Think carefully again when you're getting the ultrasound. Young lady, work is important, but both of you were not careful back then, bringing the child into this world. It's a human life. Are you sure you want to give up on the baby?" The doctor tried to persuade Kelly while she filled in the form for Kelly to get an ultrasound.
Kelly just nodded but said nothing more.
If she and Jackson were married, she would be willing to put work aside for the time being for the baby.
Unfortunately, Jackson was about to get married to Krystal. As a result, Kelly's child would only be an illegitimate child.
She did not want to ruin her future for a child like this.
When the doctor saw how determined she was, she passed the form and stopped trying to convince her.
Kelly received the form and thanked the doctor before leaving under other people's gazes.
There were many people, and Kelly had to line up for her check-up and when she paid her fees.
While she was queueing up to pay, she thought about how Jackson was preparing for his wedding with Krystal happily, which made resentment fill her heart.
He ruined me and made me pregnant, but he is going to marry someone else for the sake of his future.
He gets all the good things to himself!
Initially, she wanted to abort the baby in secret, but she could not help herself and called Jackson at this moment.
It took him some time to answer her call, and he spoke in a hushed voice. It would not take a genius to figure out that he was with Krystal now.
"Kelly, what's up?"
Then, he continued, "If there's nothing urgent, I'll hang up now. I'm busy."
"What are you busy with? You're busy accompanying Krystal, aren't you?"
"Kelly."
Jackson's tone was filled with exasperation.
"Where are you now? Tell me."
"I-I'm at the jewelry store."
Kelly's eyes turned vicious upon hearing that.
She was lining up for a medical check-up, preparing to get an abortion, which would make her suffer, but he was out there, accompanying another woman at a jewelry store.
The vast difference and sharp contrast made Kelly squeeze her words through gritted teeth. "Jackson, I'm giving you a chance, so don't call me cruel afterward. I'm at the hospital now, waiting for a check-up and getting an abortion later. Get here in ten minutes, or I will abort our baby.
Then, she hung up the call, not giving Jackson a chance to reject or persuade her through the phone.
Jackson called her back right away.
Kelly did not answer the call, nor did she decline it. Instead, she just let it ring, which attracted the attention of the people around her, so she lowered the volume of her ringtone instead.
After a few attempts, Kelly still did not pick up his calls, so he texted her instead.
She read them, and his text revolved around asking her to calm down and not abort the baby because that is proof of their love.
Proof of our love? Pfft!
For this so-called proof of love, do I need to suffer through all the pain of childbirth and taking care of the kid while he gets to fool around with another woman?
In the luxury jewelry store, Krystal picked out a set of jewelry that she liked. When she wanted to ask Jackson for his opinion, she looked to her side and realized that Jackson was no longer there.
"Jackson? Jackson?" Krystal called out.
The sales assistant told her, "Miss Caddel, your husband rushed out soon after he received a call earlier."
Krystal quickly walked over to the door and saw that even Jackson's car was nowhere in sight. In an instant, her expression turned nasty as she took her phone out of her bag and called him.
When he answered the call, she suppressed her anger and asked, "Jackson, where are you going? Why didn't you tell me you were leaving?"
What can be more important than accompanying me, his future wife?
Krystal was very dissatisfied with Jackson's actions.
