Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 313

Chapter 313

"Krystal, I have something urgent to deal with. I can't accompany you. Once you've made up your mind, let me know. Send me the QR code, and I'll pay for it for you. It's my gift to you."

After Jackson said that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

Then, he sped down the road.

He knew Kelly very well. If he did not arrive at the hospital in ten minutes, she would really abort the child.

That was his first child.

"Jackson, Jackson…" Krystal was hopping mad.

Before the two went out, her father-in-law had told them that Jackson would be on leave and not be allowed to return to work until after their wedding and honeymoon.

So, where was he going in a hurry?

She immediately thought that something was wrong and decided to call Tom.

"Dad." Her tone was sweet as she greeted him.

"Krystal, what's the matter?" Tom's tone was gentle as well.

Zorn Holdings was working together with Whittle Holdings. This was the advantage they received for getting Jackson to marry Krystal.

Although Zorn Holdings were in a bit of a crisis right now, they had a solid foundation. Moreover, Benjamin was also a formidable person. As a result, they believed that he would resolve the situation soon.

"Dad, Jackson left in a hurry and didn't tell me what was happening. Instead, he said he had something urgent to deal with. Did something happen in the company?"

Krystal had a concerned look on her face as she continued, "Jackson drove away very fast. I was so worried to see him driving like this. He's still on the road, so it's not convenient for me to call him and distract him."

Tom let out an 'oh' and began to cover for his son. "Something happened in the company that needs him to settle it immediately. I told him to come over. Krystal, it's my fault. I shouldn't have asked him to come and settle the company's business at this time."

When she heard that it was her father-in-law that had called Jackson, she breathed a sigh of relief and immediately became considerate.

"The company's matters are important as well. But, Dad, tell Jackson not to drive too fast later."

"Okay, I will remind him."

Then, the two exchanged a few pleasantries before ending the call.



Kendall had received several messages.

After she read them, nothing changed except for the appearance of a sneer on her face.

Kelly finally chose to have an abortion. Yet, she was still dissatisfied. So, she told Jackson about it, and now he was rushing over to stop her.

Before that, he was with Krystal to pick out a ring at a jewelry store.

Kendall scoffed and thought about it. Then, she replied with a short text, 'Follow them. Take pictures.'

These would be her wedding gifts for Jackson and Krystal.

It would also be a fantastic gift for Kelly.

When she was reborn, she didn't have any powers. Therefore, she couldn't retaliate against her enemy. Nonetheless, she had been patient about it. She would patiently wait and let Jackson and Kelly lose everything they had now, little by little until they had nothing left. Then, they would be ruined and disgraced, like rats in the sewers.

When dealing with the enemy, death was an easy route. Death would be far too merciful for the likes of them.

However, that would be the greatest form of revenge when one played things slow and watched the enemy struggle in pain and despair.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Amelia's caller ID flashed on the phone.

"Amy." Kendall was in a good mood when she picked up the phone.

"Kendall, are you busy? Am I disturbing your work?"

"A little. What's wrong?"

Amelia smiled and said, "Nothing much. I just wanted to invite you and Dylan over for dinner. Would you care to come over?"

"I'll always say yes to your invitation. But for you to invite Dylan as well, tell me, what's the reason behind this," Kendall replied with a smile.

"He gave me a good opportunity to capture so many handsome men, so I'm grateful to him. This is my way to show my gratitude," Amelia explained.

Kendall let out a sigh. She did not trust her friend's words.

Although Amelia was Kendall's good friend and Dylan would treat her respectfully out of courtesy, Amelia was just like Kelly. Amelia's knees would weaken at the sight of him. So for her to invite him to dinner to repay him was more than suspicious!

"Oh, then I'll give him a call and get back to you on what he says. Tell me where you want to eat and give me the address. Then, we'll head over there ourselves."

"All right, you go check with him first. For me to invite Master Dylan to dinner, it obviously has to be at the Dynasty Hotel. That is the only place worthy of people like you two."

Kendall smiled and said, "Amy, stop teasing me."

"I'm not teasing you; it's the truth. Kendall, please help ask Master Dylan for me."

"I will. I'll give him a call first and get back to you later."

After she hung up the phone, Kendall smiled again and murmured to herself, "She must have taken a fancy on Ronnie."

Ronnie was Dylan's bodyguard; Amelia would be able to see Ronnie if she invited Dylan along for dinner.

Although she was used to being surrounded by handsome men as her hobby was photographing them, no man had ever once made an impact on her.

For this reason, Sophia had nagged Amelia a few times.

Sophia had arranged several blind dates for her, but it was to no avail.

Kendall knew that Amelia hated these blind dates. So Amelia would inquire in advance about what the upcoming blind date hated the most. Then, once they met, she would do everything the guy hated, and naturally, the guy would not pursue her.

When they were at the horse farm for a holiday, Kendall noticed that Amelia would take an additional few glances at Ronnie.

Aside from being Dylan's bodyguard, Ronnie was very good-looking. He could score a 95 on the appearance scale.

Kendall joked about it with Dylan before; wasn't he scared that he would be compared with a group of handsome men by his side?

Finally, she called him up to ask him about dinner.

Unfortunately, he refused without a second thought.

"You can go ahead and have dinner with her, Kendall. I don't want to." Then, he reminded his beloved wife, "You shouldn't lower your guard just because you two are friends."

"Dylan, you're overthinking it," Kendall said.

Amelia would tremble at the sight of Dylan. There was no way that she would dare to think about him in a different light, even if she were given a burst of courage for a day.

She wasn't afraid of taking photos of Frank, but when it came to Dylan, she wouldn't even spare him a glance. That showed how much she feared him.

"Even if that is the case, I still wouldn't eat with her."

Dylan rarely ate with the opposite gender except for his wife.

"All right, I'll tell Amy about it. Then, can I bring Ronnie along?"

"Has Ms. Taylor taken a fancy to Ronnie?"

Dylan had arranged for someone to guard Kendall, and she was well aware of that now. Yet, she insisted on taking Ronnie with her. Dylan immediately placed the pieces together and came to this conclusion.

When she heard his question, she giggled as she said, "I'm not quite sure yet, but I have my suspicions. I know Amelia very well. For her to take the initiative to invite the two of us for dinner, she must have her eye on someone. But I'm quite sure that the person isn't you. Amelia holds her principles very highly. She wouldn't go for a friend's husband. But, Dylan, Ronnie doesn't have a girlfriend or a fiancee, does he?"

"No, he doesn't."

Kendall let out a sigh of relief. "That's good. If Amy likes Ronnie and comes to me for help, I will be her wingman. Although Ronnie is your bodyguard, I think he's a decent man. He is capable and strong. Although he has a sullen face all day long like you, he is still meticulous and handsome. He's like a celebrity."

Dylan's face turned sour when he heard her praises for Ronnie. "If you give him a few more compliments, I'm afraid he can no longer be my bodyguard in the future."

"You're jealous again!"

"Is your husband not good enough? Which part of me isn't strong enough? Am I not meticulous enough? Am I not handsome? Do I not resemble a celebrity as well?"

Kendall was rendered mute by his questions. Oops, I've made my husband extremely envious again. What should I do now?
