Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 343

Chapter 343

Shirley's extravagant life was quite boring; she'd either go shopping or play cards every day, or she'd get a few friends to come along on an impromptu trip to the hot springs.

Ever since she got her biological daughter back, she rarely went on trips anymore. She'd always stay at home to accompany her daughter, strengthening their relationship.

"Have you had dinner?"

Shirley asked, taking the initiative.

"I rushed back as soon as I got off work, thinking that I could have dinner with you. Kendall has Master Dylan now, so she can't stay with you often. She rarely comes back now, and every time she does—"

It would only be bad news, for Kendall always exposed Kelly's secrets.

"Kendall is busy, so I asked her not to come back all the time in case she tires herself out."

"No matter how busy she gets, she still has time to eat. She goes to Dynasty Hotel for dinner with Master Dylan every day, and she's never thought of coming back to accompany you."

Shirley glared at Kelly, upset.

"Fine, I'll stop talking now."

Kelly wisely shut up.

No matter what, Kendall was Kelly's foster mother's biological daughter.

After spending time together for more than a year, her foster mother would be more biased toward Kendall.

"Kelly, it's not that I'm picking sides. In terms of having meals together, Kendall accompanies me more often than you do."

Kelly was speechless.

When she thought about it, she realized that it was true.

"Mom, I'm so sorry for treating you like this. I also want to spend more time with you, but I have to go to work, and it's always busy at work. I—"

"Don't complain about others when you yourself aren't doing well either."

Kelly looked like she was learning a lesson earnestly. "Understood, Mom."

Shirley looked at her for a moment, then took her hand and patted it, saying, "Kelly, even though you're not our biological daughter, you still lived with us for more than twenty years. We always treat you like our biological daughter. Kendall grew up without us, and we feel like we owe her, so we more or less favor her more. With everything going on, we're doing our best to treat you two fairly. You don't have to be jealous of Kendall and fight with her. It would only make us sad."

Kelly sneered in her mind. After Shirley knew that Kelly wasn't a biological daughter of the Parker Family, she obviously favored Kendall more.

If Kelly didn't do anything, she might lose everything.

She had spent so much effort on Parker Corporation, so she couldn't just stand by and watch as her foster father passed Parker Corporation to Kendall.

She refused to!

"Mom."

Kelly said pitifully, "If I don't fight with Kendall, Kendall would be the one fighting me. Ever since she went to the Colemans and visited Master Dylan, cutting herself to reject marriage talks and coming back, it seems like she's been holding a grudge against me. She'd target me and trouble me whenever possible, be it at work or at home. Mom, you should know that too. When Kendall just came back, we were on very good terms with each other, and she respected me as an elder sister as well. I cared for and protected this younger sister of mine, and I always gave her the best things. Even Jackson… Mom, I admit that I've been seeing Jackson, and when we were about to announce our relationship, Kendall came along. Kendall fell for Jackson, and I didn't want to fight with her, so I backed out of my own initiative, letting Kendall be with Jackson."

Kelly came clean about her past with Jackson.

Now, she was even pregnant with Jackson's child, and her foster parents found out about her relationship with Jackson. She felt that if she kept it a secret any longer, her foster parents might think that she was making things difficult for them.

"I don't even know what I did wrong to provoke Kendall for her to be treating me like this. Mom, I think Kendall seems to be forcing me to leave the Parker Family, to leave you two, and maybe even Orapolis itself."

Shirley let go of Kelly's hand.

Kelly could tell from this action that her foster mother was troubled.

She couldn't help but sneer again in her mind.

Shirley said that she would treat them two fairly, and when Kelly talked bad about Kendall, Shirley would stand up for the other.

Now, since everything was out in the open, Kelly decided to reveal her suspicions. Her foster mother was already mad, after all.

"Mom, there's something I've been hiding in my heart for a long time. I don't know if I should say it. If it turns out to be true, I'm worried that you and Dad would be so distraught and unable to accept the truth."

Shirley said calmly, "Speak freely if there's anything on your mind. We've lived long enough, and we've seen too many things."

While glancing at Kelly, Shirley continued, "We won't interfere in your relationship with Jackson anymore. In the future, if you ever regret it, don't blame us for not advising you earlier. You're the one who refused to listen. Now, I'm just glad that Kendall left Jackson."

Kelly pursed her lips.

Kendall left Jackson for Master Dylan only because Master Dylan is richer than him, she thought.

Does anyone really believe that Kendall earnestly loves Master Dylan?

Master Dylan is a smart person, so how did he not notice Kendall's ulterior motives?

"Mom, I'm a grown woman now. I'll take responsibility for my own actions. However, Mom, don't you suspect that Kendall is no longer the Kendall we know?"

Shirley glared at her, a foul expression on her face as she said angrily, "Kelly, what do you mean by that?"

"Mom, don't get angry. I'll analyze it for you." Kelly hastily coaxed her foster mother as she said, "Mom, remember how obedient Kendall used to be? She was such a nice person, but she changed ever since coming back from the Coleman Residence. She sucked up to you and Dad, and she kept going against me. I'm suspecting that the new Kendall is fake, and her only motive is to destroy my relationship with you and Dad. Then, when she has pleased you and Dad sufficiently, she'll learn to manage the company so that she can take over Parker Corporation. With that, she'll claim the Parker Family's property as her own. Now, this Kendall might be fake, and everything might be a plot. When Kendall went to see Master Dylan, it was a chance to switch out the Kendalls. The real Kendall might be—"

"Kelly Parker!"

Shirley stood up right away and pointed at Kelly, shouting, "You're the one who's trying to destroy our relationship with Kendall! Kendall is our biological daughter, and she's nice to her biological parents because it's only natural. But in your eyes, she's just sucking up to us. You even said that she's going against you, but you're the one who keeps jumping on every opportunity to slander Kendall and talk bad about her in front of me."

Shirley was extremely mad.

"Kelly, I'm not scared of you blaming me. No matter how much you slander Kendall, she's my dear biological daughter!"

Kendall was the daughter she had carried for ten months in her belly, who was switched out by someone with evil intentions, causing her to be separated from her daughter for twenty-five years.

Shirley always thought that she owed her daughter, and she wanted to make it up to Kendall. No matter how bad her daughter might be, she was still her biological daughter!

Now, Kelly was suspecting that Kendall was fake. Naturally, Shirley would be mad.

"Mom."

Kelly stood up and said, "Mom, don't get angry first. Think about it properly. How did Kendall treat you and Dad when she just returned to the family, and how is she treating you now? She changed overnight. Also, she was deeply in love with Jackson, and she swore she would marry Jackson no matter what. But then, she suddenly changed her mind and avoided him. She then married Master Dylan despite everything. Mom, don't you think that everything is rather suspicious?"
