Chapter 466
In the end, Amelia was still dragged away by Desmond.
After waiting for her daughter's return but to no avail, Sophia could not hold it in anymore as she went out to see what was going on. To her dismay, Amelia had already left with Desmond, leaving her all alone. What just happened?
On the other end, both Dylan and Tilly conceded to each other after a lengthy talk with each other. After he had breakfast, he went out with his bodyguards in tow.
The first stop was the Parker Residence.
Despite the countless honks the driver sounded at the entrance upon reaching their villa, there was only one servant who came out and took a look before heading back in. After that, nobody else showed up again.
"Young Master."
Ronnie turned his head and told Dylan, "I think that President Parker doesn't want to see you."
A moment of silence came before Dylan uttered, "I'm getting off."
Ronnie immediately went down and soon enough, Dylan alighted from the car and sat in his wheelchair.
With Ronnie pushing him, Dylan personally pressed the doorbell.
Ding dong, ding dong…
Adam, who heard the doorbell, pretended as if nothing happened, for he was still reading the newspaper.
Due to his bad mood, he had not returned to the company these last few days. The Parkers couple even switched off their phones upon knowing that his daughter went to Eastfort.
They did not want to handle their relatives' thirst for drama, which was disguised as concern and comfort. Also, the paparazzis did not dare to follow a scoop at the Colemans, so they hid nearby their villa, hoping to get a glimpse of them instead.
For decades, the Parkers had not gotten so much attention until now.
Charlotte looked at her husband. "Honey, ignore him. If you find the doorbell annoying, just listen to music with your headphones, or you can just stuff your ears with cotton."
"Master Dylan is here."
"So?" Adam was still furious about that day and the anger stemmed from his empathy toward his daughter.
Since Kendall did not grow up under their care for twenty-five years, they felt that they had owed her too much. Therefore, how could they not feel anything when watching their child be wronged?
Under the worst case scenario, Adam planned to keep her under his wing forever if the Colemans ever
rejected his daughter.
Although the Parkers were not as well-off as the Colemans, they still had ample money to raise their daughter.
Charlotte sighed. "Kendall doesn't want to divorce Master Dylan and he feels the same. They still love each other a lot. Old Madam Coleman's words don't represent Master Dylan."
"And? He still watched my daughter get bullied. Does he think I'll forgive him just because he came in person? Does he think he can take my daughter back just like that? Dream on! Unless that old hag apologizes in my house and personally accepts Kendall back in front of the media, I will not let Kendall step back into that wretched household!" Adam was very adamant about this.
As much as he was very satisfied with his son-in-law, he knew that he could not concede on this matter.
If Tilly did not lower her head this time and allow Dylan bring back Kendall in tow, Adam knew that Tilly would bully his daughter in the future again.
"Do you think the old madam would do that?"
Charlotte thought that Tilly would not lower her head just because of Kendall, admitting that letting Dylan come in person was already the concession on Tilly's part.
"You're too softhearted. You've already forgotten how wronged our daughter felt that day. I, for one, haven't forgotten about it. Just recalling it sends pangs to my heart."
Charlotte replied, "How could I forget about that? But, Kendall still wants to be together with Master Dylan. We should also think of his dignity as well. I don't want to see our daughter not ending up with Master Dylan ever again."
Adam said determinedly, "If that happens, I can raise Kendall for the rest of my life!"
This made Charlotte sigh.
Although she did feel for her daughter, she was scared of breaking their relationship apart.
"I'm going to call Kendall and ask for her opinion."
Taking her phone out, Charlotte switched on her phone and called Kendall.
At that moment, Kendall and Emma were walking around the scenic area of Eastfort with the young master of the Ford Family.
After Margaret woke up, Eric and Scott stayed at the hospital.
However, Kendall and Emma were guests after all, so they could not simply ignore them. Eric promised Dylan that he would keep Kendall in protection until Dylan resolved the issue between his grandmother and her.
Hence, Eric could only arrange for his cousin and his cousin's wife to accompany them.
"Hello, Mom," Kendall answered the call.
"Kendall, are you feeling somewhat better now?" Charlotte was asking about her mood.
"I feel much better now, Mom. You don't need to worry about me. I assume the situation at home must be quite noisy now due to my incident. You and Daddy need to take care."
This was because she knew that the media was still stalking them.
"The reporters haven't been blocking the door, so our lives aren't really affected. It's just your dad is still in a bad mood. He hasn't gone back to the company yet. Kelly didn't come back the whole day yesterday either, so I'm not sure if she went to the company or not."
Seeing how the reporters were not blocking the entrance anymore, Charlotte thought that her son-in- law must have done something.
"Kendall." After a slight pause, she decided to come clean. "Master Dylan is here, but your dad is refusing to let him in."
Since the grandmother and grandson had both conceded, Dylan phoned his wife immediately, stating that she should relax for a few more days before he came to pick her up.
Kendall did not think that he would still go to the Parkers even when she was not at home.
Yet, Dylan had always treated Kendall's family very well. Even when she was not around, he would still visit, albeit his intention was to snitch on her to Charlotte sometimes.
"Kendall, did Master Dylan contact you? Did he come here today to pick you up?"
Pondering for a while, Kendall replied, "Mom, I have been keeping in contact with Dylan. He knows that I'm not in Orapolis. In fact, it was him who asked for a favor from the head of the Fords. He arranged for me to have a vacation in Eastfort with Emma. I think he came to our house to apologize to you two."
I was wronged, and my husband feels that he has failed to protect me.
"About that… Your dad is still angry and refuses to let him in…"
"Mom, just let Dad be. I don't think Dylan will hold it against him."
Although Kendall could not bear Dylan being refused outside, this was because her father was standing up for him, so she could not just let Adam down. In the end, she decided to spectate and not help either side.
With how importantly Adam treated his son-in-law, she believed that he would not fall out with him for real.
Sighing, Charlotte stated, "If you say so. In that case, I won't say anything and leave your father be. Kendall, rest up well and play around for a few days."
Kendall smiled. "I'm waiting for Dylan to pick me up."
She also had her own pride. After all, why would one return on their own after being chased out?
No matter what, I'm going to wait for Dylan to come pick me up.
"Okay, I won't bother you, then. I'm going to hang up and switch my phone off, so that those
busybodies won't have the chance to call me."
The mother and daughter hung up after a few more exchanges.
At the side, Adam listened intently to their conversation even though he did not prevent his wife from calling Kendall.
When the call ended, he shook his newspaper before saying to the servant that came in to report, "Go out and tell the person ringing the doorbell this—it's easy to chase someone out, but it's not so easy to want them back. What do they treat my daughter as? Someone who comes and goes at the beck of their call? Tell him to go back to where he came from!"
Nodding, the servant quickly left.
