"Have you met with the clients that Kelly assigned you?" Since his daughter said she was fine, Adam decided not to harp on this issue. Even if he doubted his daughter, he could trust his son-in-law.
"I've met up with one of them, but I haven't contacted the rest," Kendall replied honestly.
"Keep up the good work. If there's anything you don't understand, just come up to me. You can also ask around. The seniors in this company have worked with me for over ten years. I'm sure they'll be more than willing to lend you a hand." He was trying to remind her that she also had to get on with the seniors in the company.
"I understand, Daddy." Kendall was respectful of the seniors in the company and they were polite to her. Whenever she had questions, even though they were willing to teach her, they wouldn't clarify their points. As such, she had to interpret what they were trying to say. She had seen how they treated Kelly. It seems that I have to work harder.
"Run along, now. I'm going to attend a cocktail party in the evening. Come with me if you're free. Your mom will be attending as well."
The three of them rarely appeared in public together.
"I'm free tonight, but I'll be busy on Wednesday. It'll be Mrs. Wright's birthday and she has invited Dylan's mom and his aunts to her house. I'm going over with them."
Adam nodded. "You need to socialize with others more. To everyone else, you're the heir to the Parker Corporation, so you have to get to know the big shots in the business world. Regardless of whether you'll be working with them, you have to be on good terms with them. You're the Young Mistress of the
Coleman Family now and you'll take charge of the family in the future. Therefore, you must get to know more people. Since Dylan's mother is willing to take you along when she meets her friends, you have to remember their names and learn from them. You have been attending etiquette classes for quite a while now and it's time you put what you've learned to good use."
"I got it, Daddy."
"Alright, then. Don't leave so soon when you get off work. Inform Dylan about it so that he won't get mad." Adam knew his son-in-law's temperament very well, which was why he promptly reminded his daughter.
Kendall hummed in response. After leaving her father's office, she sent a message to Dylan to inform him that she was going to attend a cocktail party with her parents.
Dylan asked, 'Can I tag along?'
Kendall smiled. 'If I remember correctly, you don't like attending these kinds of cocktail parties.'
'Since you're going there, I'd like to tag along.'
'You can go wherever you want. There's no need for me to take you along.'
Truth was, Dylan had received the invitation card to the cocktail party. However, he wasn't interested in attending these sorts of parties. As such, whenever he received those invitation cards, he would ask Toddy and Emma to handle them for him.
'I'll be going with you, then.' Dylan directly made a decision.
Kendall replied with a smiling emoji. She knew that Dylan loved following her around.
Time seemed to go by quickly when one was busy. Soon, the sun started to sink below the horizon.
Charlotte arrived at the company pretty early. She had changed into an evening dress, which made her look elegant and demure. Knowing that her daughter was going with them, she had also brought along another dress so that Kendall could get changed in the company.
When most of the employees had gotten off work, the three of them shuffled out of the company, only to see Dylan standing at the entrance.
When Adam saw the man waiting outside the company, he said to his wife with a smile, "Look at Dylan. Is he worried we'll sell his wife to someone else or something? He's even coming with us to an ordinary cocktail party!"
"Are you not happy that they're lovey-dovey?" Charlotte retorted, to which Adam chuckled.
"Of course, I'm happy to see that they're deeply in love. As parents, we certainly hope she'll always be happy."
Kendall stepped out of the company first. "Darling."
She looked gorgeous, standing there clad in an evening dress. Dylan could not even move his eyes from her. At that moment, he had the urge to keep her inside their house so that no one else could see her beauty.
Certainly, he wouldn't put that into action, for he had promised the woman that whatever she wanted to do, she had his full support. He wouldn't restrict her with the Coleman Family's rules. She was always free and had her personal space.
"Why didn't you go in?" Kendall jogged toward Dylan. Meanwhile, Ronnie and the others greeted her politely. Then, she fished out a pack of tissues from her exquisite bag and pulled out two pieces before caringly wiping the sweat off Dylan's forehead. "It's hot outside."
Although it was evening, the weather was rather humid. The weather in Orapolis could be scorching in both summer and fall.
"I only arrived a moment ago. Since you were coming out, I decided not to go in." Dylan enjoyed his wife's caring gesture. "Did your mother bring you the evening dress?"
"Yes."
"It looks great on you."
Kendall asked mischievously, "Which one looks better? The dress or me?"
"The dress is beautiful, but you look even more stunning."
"You're such a sweet talker."
"Do I get a reward?"
A bashful Kendall said, "My parents are just over there and there are many people around us." Despite what she said, she still wrapped her arms around Dylan's neck and gave him a peck on the cheek before hurriedly releasing him. Pretending that nothing had happened, she murmured, "I'll make it up to you when we go home."
To get their child back sooner, the couple had been frequently doing the deed at night. Dylan stared fixedly at her with his deep, gentle gaze.
Adam and Charlotte were too embarrassed to leave the building as they were worried that they would interrupt the couple.
When Dylan saw them, he gently greeted them by saying, "Mr. and Mrs. Parker."
Only then did they go over. "Why didn't you go in, Dylan? It's humid outside," Charlotte said, worried the weather was too sultry for him.
"It's fine. I only arrived and got out of the car a moment ago. The car is air-conditioned, so it's not hot at all."
Since he had said so, Charlotte stopped speaking further.
Dylan turned to Adam and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Parker. I hope the organizer won't blame you for my presence without an invitation card."
"I'm sure they'll be elated to see you at the party."
Whatever the party, it would be an honor for the organizer to have the Dylan Coleman there. Even if
Dylan only showed up momentarily, the organizer could brag about it for a long time.
"Let's go," Adam said. His car was still inside the company. After saying something to Kendall and Dylan, he took his wife's hand and got back into the building.
On the other hand, Kendall and Dylan got into their car. These days, Dylan rarely needed to use the wheelchair, though he would still bring it along. Whenever he was exhausted, he could have a seat.
Following that, Dylan passed her a box of snacks. "You don't really have a chance to have your food quietly at a party. I'm worried you'll be starving, so I've brought you some snacks to fill you up."
Kendall took the snacks with a smile and murmured, "Thanks, darling."
Meanwhile, Dylan looked lovingly at her.
She opened the box that contained an assortment of snacks, all of which were her favorites. After having a piece, she held one out to Dylan. "Why don't we have it together?"
"Sure." Dylan didn't have a sweet tooth but whatever his wife held out to him, he would just eat it. He wouldn't mind the overly sweet taste.
After Adam's car was gone, Dylan's fleet of vehicles then started moving. Soon, several cars left the Parker Corporation's building.
It wasn't until the cars were out of sight that Kelly walked up to the window.
