Should I use the Woods for my plan? But they still like Kendall more, and I've been reluctant to see them. They're going to think I'm up to something if I suddenly get close to them. Forget it. They're my real parents anyway. They shouldn't be dragged into this.
She quietly listened to Charlotte making the call. When the wedding was mentioned, a feeling of envy filled her heart. Sometimes she did regret what she did. She regretted trying to set Kendall up. If she had just stayed in her lane, the Parkers would still give her a hefty reward.
Her greed and frustration took her on a path of no return. Ever since Kendall was taken back, she tried everything she could to ruin Kendall so she could hog all the Parkers' wealth for herself. It was a perfect plan, yet Kendall seemed to have changed out of nowhere. Not only did she ruin Kelly's plan, but she also dragged Kelly into a big mess. Now Kelly had no way back. She lost Jackson, her reputation, and someone who loved her. Brian only dated her because they both had something to gain. No man was truly nice to her. She couldn't and wouldn't go back. Neither can live while the other survives, Kendall.
…
Kendall didn't go to the appointment with her father after work. Instead, she went straight to Coleman Empire Holdings, and Emma took her there. Kendall teased, "Trying to surprise Toddy?"
Emma said, "Tease me again and I'm taking you straight back to Parker Corporation and let Henry pick you up. Can't believe you'd tease me, and I just wanted to help."
Kendall chuckled. "Alright, I'm sorry. Calm down. You know I'm on Roger's side. I would love it if we could become a family. Please give Roger a chance. He'll give you happiness. I know he's not the most
romantic man, but he's very caring. If you don't like him staying in the countryside, I'll get him a villa so you guys can still stay in the city." Roger won't refuse a villa if it's for Emma, right?
"Kendall, I am not complaining. Nobody's going to look down on your family now. But you know how love works. No forcing it. I do like getting along with Roger, but to be honest, I don't feel any love for him. Give me some time. I'll deal with it." Welp. First, I need to make sure Toddy gives up on me.
"He probably won't give up." Kendall sighed. "Love is… excruciating sometimes."
"Yeah. That's why I envy you and Jane. You two are blessed, especially Jane. She grew up with Yoseph, and now they're going to be married. I'm happy for them. Oh, and I wanna be your bridesmaid. And Jane's too. Hope I can get a bit of your luck."
Kendall smiled. "You're gonna be one of my bridesmaids alright." Kendall only had a handful of friends in Orapolis. Jane's wedding was after hers, and they were relatives now, so Jane couldn't be her bridesmaid, which left Kendall with Amelia and Emma. "Just remember the gift."
"Ah, so the date is decided, I see." Emma smiled. "Finally. I thought you guys would take a few more years." After all, Kendall had a company to deal with.
"The wedding won't get in the way of my work."
"No honeymoon?" novelbin
Kendall stayed silent for a while. "No. We'll do it another time." She would love a honeymoon, but now that she was pregnant, the Colemans wouldn't agree to it, nor would her own family.
Emma didn't catch the subtle silence. She said, "You guys have a long road ahead of you. You have enough time for a honeymoon. Besides, you guys are madly in love with each other. As long as there's love, every day is a honeymoon."
Kendall smiled. "Yeah. As long as we're together, we'll be fine. Honeymoon or not."
No overseas trip, I guess. But a road trip is certainly possible. It's the weekend tomorrow. I can arrange a trip with my family.
Kendall felt a bit guilty for not spending more time with the Woods or the Parkers. So bad. I need to make it up to them. "Slow down, Emma. I need to call my mom." They could see the building now.
Emma smiled. "Oh, it's alright. Not like I'm going to get in the way of you and your mother." Oh, wait. This is something else. "Don't tell me he gets jealous of your mother too."
"If I get distracted for even one second when I'm with him, he's gonna pull a long face. He even got jealous of a three-year-old boy just because the boy spent more time with me."
"You're the only one who can tolerate that. You are perfect for him." I can't. That kind of bossy love is… suffocating. She didn't care what stage the relationship was in, a couple needed their own space. Being too controlling would be bad.
"He does get jealous easily, but he gives me enough space and respect. It's just part of a relationship. You'll know when you fall in love." Kendall wouldn't complain about this little flaw. Dylan loved her deeply and him being jealous was just a part of the relationship. A single woman like Emma wouldn't understand.
Ouch, Kendall.
Kendall called Sally. The moment Sally picked it up, she said, "Mom, my driver will pick you up this weekend. We're going on a road trip, so you and Dad should take the weekend off."
"My God, Kendall. For the sake of the baby, don't run around too much. And you don't have to trouble the driver. Mrs. Parker has made the necessary arrangements. We'll be in town tomorrow." There was laughter in Sally's voice. She sounded happy.
Kendall was surprised. "My mother made the arrangements?"
"Of course. Wait, are you doubting her? Mrs. Parker isn't a bad person. We know why she did that. It's understandable," said Sally. She didn't want Kendall to be distant from Charlotte because of them.
