Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468

"Is it good?" Frank asked Chris.

Chris almost burst into laughter, but he held it in in the face of Frank's serious expression. He replied professionally, "You will know it once you have it, President Mendelson. After all, everyone's palettes are different. Some like it, but some might hate it."

The executives nodded approvingly at his words. It was true that some people liked jammed bread and some did not prefer it.

After a moment of silence, Frank finally grabbed a piece of jammed bread to take a bite. The sweetness made his brows creased.

It's so sweet! Is Amelia trying to make me diabetic?

However, he could not spit it out under everyone's watchful eyes. He forced himself to swallow the piece of bread while deciding to have someone buy tons of jammed bread to jam them into Amelia's mouth. She should have a taste of her own medicine.

Yet, he figured that it did not taste that bad upon having his first bite, hence the second bite. It's good, he thought to himself.

After taking one bite and another, he finished the whole bread and was craving for more. However, the empty paper bag rendered him at a loss for words.

The others watched how their superior president relished in a simple jammed bread as though it was a premium breakfast. At that, they made up their mind to have bread with jam and instant coffee for their breakfast tomorrow.

Finishing the last bite of his meal, Frank cast his gaze onto the cup of instant coffee.

Since Amelia dared to prepare this, it should not be a problem. She seems like she's going to have me killed, but she's just a paper tiger. She's not as cruel as Kendall. Kendall… I wonder how she's doing right now.

No matter how influential he was, he could not find out her condition because his power did not stretch to the Fords. Still, considering how she had saved their young master, Eric should be treating her with respect upon rescuing her.

Just what is Dylan thinking? Even if Eric has a spouse, she's been vegetative for years and he's still a fine man. His kid is still young and has taken a liking on Kendall. Isn't Dylan afraid that Eric would fall in love with her? How dare he treat me like a sinister thief while putting his faith on Eric.

Holding the cup of coffee, Frank furrowed his brows and started drinking it down. The cup soon became empty probably because he was thinking of Kendall, or the coffee actually suited his taste buds.

"How's the taste, President Mendelson?" questioned Chris mischievously.

That breakfast was personally brought over by Amelia. Although the fact that she was invited to Frank's residence every day was unbeknownst to Sophia, Chris was aware of everything.

After all, many of Frank's orders were directed to him.

Chris and Desmond shared the same notion about how slowly Frank's attitude toward Amelia changed. Frank was the only one unaware about his feelings as he kept insisting that he liked Kendall.

Chris more or less knew the reason why Frank liked Kendall, but he believed that it was mere obsession instead of love.

"I won't die from it," replied Frank with a deadpan face.

Chris let out a silent chuckle, whereas the executives shared the same thought. You clearly enjoyed 'em. Stop denying.

It was not until then that they finally understood why Frank informed his assistant to have the young lady send breakfast to the conference room—he was trying to show off in front of them.

Although he did not expect the lady to bring a jammed bread and a cup of instant coffee, he finished off everything.

What's the lady's last name again? Taylor? Guess we should look into it, including her family background. She might be our future boss in the future.

After finishing his breakfast, Frank proceeded with the meeting as if nothing had happened. Meanwhile, Amelia was waiting for him in the guest room.

It was not her intention, but Sophia kept ringing her up. Knowing that the cat was going to be out of the bag anyway, she recounted everything that happened recently to Sophia and was given a lecture.

Amelia felt utterly wronged as she was innocent.

After all, it was not her initiative to meet so frequently with the man. It was Frank, that merciless man, who vented his anger at her upon failing to win Kendall's heart. What else could she do about it?

Sophia felt helpless as well, knowing that her daughter was a loyal person and cared a lot for Kendall.

"Did President Mendelson hurt you?" asked Sophia over the phone in concern. She could still remember Desmond's words about how vile Frank's temper was. No one would know what someone like him would do when he was upset.

"He's having a meeting."

"Why aren't you coming back when he's busy? Come. Harriet has been calling a few times. She and her son are in Urban Break."

Her daughter's love life was the cause of her distress. If the blind date today was a failure, she wondered when she could watch Amelia walk down the aisle. She bet her friend was the only one who would be able to accept Amelia's weird hobby.

That breakfast was personally brought over by Amelia. Although the fact that she was invited to Frank's residence every day was unbeknownst to Sophia, Chris was aware of everything.

"Mom, I don't wanna meet her son. Why don't you relay the message to her in my stead? It's not that I don't wanna leave, but I can't. Frank asked his bodyguards to watch by the door."

If it was not for the two brawny men guarding the door, Amelia could have made herself scarce. In a fit of pique, she purchased and brought a jammed bread and a cup of instant coffee into the conference room for Frank on purpose.

She was aware that he would add her name into his death note for sure. Why would someone rich like him have that kind of breakfast?

She could not even forget everyone's gaze that landed upon her when she entered the room with the food. If only eyeballs could pop out of the eye sockets, they would have filled the room to the brim.

"You…" Sophia intended to give some advice, but knowing what kind of situation Amelia was in, she sighed. "I don't think you'll ever marry someone."

"That works out for me. I don't wanna marry someone either. What's good about marriage anyway? Kendall is happy after marrying Young Master Dylan, but she's driven away by Old Madam Coleman in the end. I should stay at home with you and Dad. Ethan told me that, if I don't marry someone, he's willing to look after me forever."

Sophia almost hurled her phone onto the ground. "Ethan, that boy! I'll smack his head when he's back. How could he say something like that to you?"

"Ethan is the best!" Amelia was super protective of her brother and so was he about her.

"You should take care of yourself. Don't tick Mr. Mendelson off. Judging from his feelings for Kendall, I don't think he'll do anything to you. If you're able to leave at noon, you should come to Urban Break." Sophia could never forget about her daughter's blind date.

"Got it, Mom." Amelia pouted because she did not think she could leave at noon. If Frank ordered someone to bring her over, she would be staying for the whole day with him. He would not let her go until it was late at night.

Hmm? It sounds like there's something going on between us if I put it that way. Eww! No! I don't wanna have anything to do with that guy. He's a pervert! And way too obsessive. I don't like an obsessive man.

Still, she noticed Frank's feelings and every sacrifice he made for her best friend, which made her feel a little envious, although it was heart-wrenching to watch.
