"You went to the Pet Palace, Dylan?" Kendall held her pet cat while stroking its head.
Looking at her merriful expression, Dylan rejoiced at the fact that he did not get rid of it on impulse. It would have upset her so much. He wished her to be happy all her life, or at least be happy whenever they were together.
"I was strolling outside when I saw it. I realized that it was yours, so I brought it back."
"It ran out?" she questioned in surprise.
She initially presumed that he went to Pet Palace to bring back the cat himself. It had been a long time since she last visited her pets. Had he not brought the cat home, she would have forgotten them due to her busy schedule.
Kendall was feeling guilty; she got into a fight with Dylan when she wanted to have pets back then. Yet, she did not pay much attention to them after he gave in.
He hummed. "Luckily, it bumped into me."
Amos was rendered speechless as it was fortunate that the cat was the present Dylan gifted her. Otherwise, it would be an unlucky day for the cat, and it would have lost its life to Dylan.
While she was playing with the cat, the staff from Pet Palace arrived. They entered the house under Amos' guidance before apologizing profusely to Dylan. It was their dereliction for failing to keep an eye on Kendall's cat, which resulted in its intrusion on his turf.
The moment they stepped over the door, they felt instant relief when they saw the cat resting in Kendall's arms. Things did not go out of hand as Dylan spared its life in the end.
"Dylan doesn't like furry pets, so look after them properly. Don't let them run around," she chided before Dylan could say anything.
The staff responded with their heads hung low. Feeling nervous and afraid, they were scared that Dylan would rebuke them.
Kendall handed the Ragdoll to one of them. "I'm busy lately, so I don't have the time to visit them. Bring it back first. I'll come over some other day when I'm free. Do not repeat the same mistake you've made today."
Her man would not be that nice and forgiving all the time. Although he did not flip out and ask someone to get rid of her cat, it would be a dead meat if he failed to recognize it next time.
She did not wish to put him in a tough position; she did not want to coerce him into something he disliked, and she did not want the pets to lose their lives either. In order to keep them safe, it would be best for them to live freely in Pet Palace as usual and keep them out of Dylan's sight.
"Don't worry, Young Mistress Kendall. We promise that there'll be no next time!"
"Don't worry, Young Mistress Kendall. We promise that there'll be no next time!"
"Hmm. That's all from us. You should get going." She made them leave after a few forewarning.
They sneaked a few peeks at Dylan, who did not seem to be stopping them. As though they escaped from death, they made themselves scarce instantly.
Along the way here, they thought the punishment would be either as light as a pay cut, or as severe as losing their job and being told off by Dylan.
Now that nothing had transpired and they could leave with the cat so effortlessly, the floaty feeling felt surreal to them.
It was not until they were far away from the residence that they finally believed that they were safe and sound. Dylan did not spare a word to them until the end.
Even though Kendall chided them, her tone was much gentler than Dylan. The fact that she preempted him was to save them from trouble. Therefore, they were sincerely grateful to her.
Kendall washed her hands and face before returning to Dylan's side. "Dylan, are you angry because I let them off just like that?"
He lightly tapped the tip of her nose. "Do I look like I'm angry? This is your house. It's your call."
"Thank you, honey, for being so generous and forgiving."
"As if your husband is that petty. You should be punished."
She giggled. "Dylan, should I change my clothes? I mean, since I held the cat."
There were furs on her clothes, and he hated them.
"No. I can still accept this." As long as she's happy.
Kendall stared at him for a moment, after which she bent over and wrapped her arms around his neck to kiss him on the lips.
Right before he could react to it, she retreated with flushed cheeks as she had just recalled that Amos was still present. Meanwhile, Amos was looking at the ceiling as though he saw nothing.
After several minutes had passed, a sumptuous breakfast was then served on the table under the gazebo. It had been a long time since they last had breakfast such as this, and now everything had finally returned to normal.
Kendall pushed Dylan into the gazebo. While they were enjoying their breakfast, he told her about Amelia's love confession.
She gazed at Ronnie standing outside of the gazebo. "Is Amy alright?"
"Amelia is a cool person. It's normal to feel sad at the beginning, but she'll be fine."
She hummed in reply as she thought, They haven't even started yet, so Amy hasn't fallen deep for Ronnie. Since he has turned her down without giving her false hope, she should be fine.
"Amy will be able to meet someone that's right for her." Kendall figured that she should give Amelia a call after arriving at work.
A cup of hot coffee was placed before her as Dylan gently claimed, "You didn't sleep well last night.
And I know you won't rest at home even if I tell you to do so, so I asked Amos to make you coffee. Still, you can only have one cup of coffee. You mustn't drink another cup of coffee at work or you won't be able to take a nap later."
His consideration for her warmed her heart immensely. He even knew that she did not get a good night's sleep.
"Later on, I'll accompany you to the hospital before going to the office."
"But you're busy. Nell is in the intensive care unit, so we can only see him for a few minutes even if we're there. Besides, he won't even know that we're visiting him. You should go straight to work first. We can visit him together when he's awake."
Dylan caressed her cheek as his eyes softened. He cooed, "It won't take that long anyway. He's your brother and my family. It doesn't matter if he knows I'm there."
Kendall did not turn down his offer since he said that.
I hope Nell wakes up soon.
After the couple visited Nelson at the hospital, they headed to work together since Coleman Empire Holdings was along the way to Parker Corporation.
As soon as Kendall entered the lobby, a receptionist pointed at the VIP room and said, "Miss Parker, Mrs. Whittle is here to meet you. She has been waiting for about half an hour."
Mrs. Whittle?
Having a hunch of the reason for Rosemi's arrival, she replied indifferently, "Tell Mrs. Whittle that I'm too busy to meet her."
With that being said, she was about to leave.
"Kendall Parker." Rosemi came out of the VIP room as soon as she noticed Kendall. She scuttled over while calling Kendall's name. Then, she stood before Kendall to stop her from leaving.
