Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 421

Chapter 421

"And Krystal! This is all her fault! She got into trouble even before they were married, and now she's going to ruin us all! If she hadn't given that fire extinguisher to him, my son wouldn't have messed that Woods kid up! God, this is infuriating! She's nothing but trouble!"

No, the young master is more trouble than he's worth to the madam. He ruined her reputation before they were married. He only married her to keep the family business. Not to mention he has an affair with Ms. Kelly. And she's pregnant with his child. Nobody cares about the madam.

But she made her bed. She could have refused to marry the young master, but she wanted a hot husband. And yet she doesn't realize she's no match for the Parker sisters. The young master is using the madam for something, and she knows that.

After Rosemi was done cursing Krystal, she ordered the servant, "Call my husband. I need to talk to him."

"Yes, madam." The servant left and came back with a wireless phone for Rosemi.

"I can't believe you're working, Tom! What about our son? Do you want him to rot in prison? Is work all you care about? You don't even care about anyone else! None of this would have happened to Jackson if you cared more about him!"

Tom let his wife berate him as she wished. He couldn't be bothered to reply. She was cut off before she could finish, and Tom tossed his phone onto the table. On the table he put his hands, and then he scratched his head.

Sh*t. Things are getting out of hand. The clients are canceling their contracts even if they're losing money. And our suppliers want us to get our stock somewhere else. They'd rather refund than work with us.

Even Zorn Holdings is canceling their investment plans. They're putting all the partnerships on hold. We don't have Zorn Holdings' backing now, and Coleman Empire Holdings is still going down hard on us. This is a hard battle. I'm not even sure if we can hold out for three months if we try to fight the Colemans.

And the Mendelson Group is attacking us too. That befuddled Tom the most. He had no idea why Frank was cross with him. Whenever the Colemans tried to attack a company, the Mendelsons would help that company fight back. So why are they helping the Colemans when it comes to us?

The Colemans alone were already hard enough to handle, but if the Mendelsons stepped in, their future would be bleak. And someone leaked the news about their predicament.

Now all of the Whittles' partners came to cancel their partnerships. Tom knew full well the Colemans were destroying them because Jackson made too many mistakes. But why did the Mendelsons get involved?

He tore his hair out. If the company falls, Jackson's life is gonna get worse. Once he's released, the family's going to go after him. And the Caddels might tell Krystal to get a divorce. This is all going to hell.

But I can't just sit on my *ss. Dylan won't help us, so my only hope is Frank. Finally, Tom decided to see Frank.

…

Kendall knocked on her father's office's door. "You called, Mr. Parker?" She stood before her father's desk.

"Yes." Adam put his pen down and looked at his daughter. Oh, she has dark circles. Concerned, he asked, "Why didn't you tell us? Look at you. There are dark circles under your eyes."

Kendall stayed silent for a moment. "It was a bit sudden, so I didn't have time. Don't tell Sally about this, Dad. I don't want anything else to happen to her. It can wait until Nell is out of the woods."

Sally and Nell were in the same hospital, but the former was taking care of her own daughter, while he was in the ICU.

She did ask her where he was and thought he went to see Kendall, so she lied. "No, I didn't see him. Probably up to something else. He did say he was going to work in the city."

Sally was doubtful, but she didn't think her son was hurt. Even before they came to the city, Nell told her he wouldn't be going back. He wanted to try his luck in the city and become strong enough for Kendall to rely on.

The Colemans were too powerful for him. If he didn't get better, he wouldn't be able to protect Kendall if the Colemans were to bully her.

"How's Nell looking?"

"Still in the ICU, but the doctor said he's getting better. Should be waking up in a couple of days, and then he'll be out of the woods." Kendall was worried about her brother.

A sigh escaped Adam's lips. "He'll get better."

The only reason Nell got into this mess was because he tried to help Kelly. "Next time Rosemi comes, tell the guard to kick her out. You don't have to see her."

Rosemi came to see her early in the morning with the pretext of pleading for Jackson. But then she caused a ruckus and embarrassed Kendall. When Adam found out, he blamed his adopted daughter and the Whittles for letting this happen. Rosemi is a piece of work. I can't believe she's asking Kendall for help after what she did.

"I don't even want to see her," Kendall hissed.

In her previous life, Rosemi kept doubling down on her just because she was Kendall's mother-in-law. The humiliation and torture Rosemi inflicted would never fade from her mind. But Kendall had been holding herself back. She wouldn't hurt Rosemi if that woman would just keep to herself. Her main targets were Jackson and Kelly.

"Do you want a few days off?" Adam asked, concerned. "You can't work like this."

"Nell is still in the ICU. Not like I can help even if I'm at the hospital. I'll work. I'll try not to bring any personal feelings to work."

Adam was still worried about her. "I'll tell your mother to take care of Kelly. Then Sally can see Nell."

"Her son is hurt. Sooner or later they'll know. Mothers are connected to their children, apparently. Frustration gets to them whenever their children get in trouble. They'll feel like the world is crumbling."
