Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 510

Chapter 510

If it's just Miss Kendall alone, Mr. Mendelson won't be heavily injured even if he doesn't fight back against Miss Kendall, Desmond thought.

"I'm afraid not, Mr. Desmond," the bodyguard said. "Mr. Coleman won't let Miss Kendall come in by herself."

Desmond was about to continue talking when Frank appeared all of a sudden. "Open the gates," he instructed in a low voice. "Let Kendall come in. Don't stop her, no matter whom she brings in with her."

Amelia, who had been inside the room counting money, immediately stopped what she was doing and came out when she heard what Frank said.

"Kendall's here?" Amelia asked.

She had been trying to count all hundreds of thousands by herself and had failed to thus far. She blamed it all on Frank who kept bugging her until she would forget how much she counted up to and would have to start over again.

Amelia had no idea what Frank said to the Taylor men. Frank had been forcefully keeping her here in his house for nearly two days. Her mother kept calling her and telling her to secretly run off, but she didn't receive any calls from the men in her family.

She suspected that they had given up on her.

Frank said nothing. Desmond then nodded.

Amelia was excited at first. She was about to go out and receive Kendall when a thought occurred to her, and she quickly wiped the smile off her face. She turned around and went over to Frank. "Kendall must be here to get even with you. Why don't you, uhh, hide somewhere?"

Frank glanced down at her.

He smirked and commented, "I almost thought I was hearing things. Are you worried about me? Shouldn't you be clapping with joy that Kendall's here to beat me up?"

Amelia was speechless.

Hah. There's no point trying to be nice to some people.

Frank glanced at the door. His smile disappeared as he said lightly, "Some things are unavoidable. Even if Kendall's arrival is the start of a hurricane, I'll take it."

He owed it to Kendall and the baby girl.

Amelia thought Frank was hopeless.

Still, it had nothing to do with her.

She was one of Kendall's good friends and took Kendall's side, so even if Kendall beat Frank to death, she still wouldn't plead for mercy on Frank's behalf.

A few minutes later, Kendall came over with Ronnie and the other bodyguards in tow.

Frank's gaze softened at the sight of her.

"Kendall!"

Amelia came forward to greet Kendall.

Kendall's icy expression faltered for a moment when she spotted her good friend. She quickly checked on Amelia and sighed in relief once she confirmed that Amelia was fine.

"Do you still come here every day?" Kendall asked quietly.

"He's the one who sends people to bring me over," Amelia corrected. "I didn't come here myself."

Kendall felt that Amelia's reaction was a little excessive.

She patted Amelia on the shoulder and said apologetically, "I'm the reason why you got caught up in all of this, Amy."

"I did everything willingly."

Although Frank had been terrible to her at the start, she had done everything willingly. Frank was still mean to her, but he was a lot less harsh than he used to be.

"I'll get you out of here later. If he dares to force you to come over again, I'll—"

"Kendall."

Amelia cut her off, and under Kendall's puzzled gaze, she said somewhat embarrassingly, "I like it here now."

After a pause, Kendall asked, "Have you fallen in love with Frank?"

That delusional man is considered fairly handsome, and Amelia has always been fond of handsome men. She takes a liking to any guy with good looks.

Kendall had long since sensed that things between the two had changed, but she never thought something would come out of it.

"What are you talking about? Why would I fall in love with him? He's so hung up on you. I'd be a fool if I fell in love with him, like a moth flying straight toward the flame."

Amelia nearly shrieked in response, but after recalling that Frank was still nearby, she lowered her voice and explained, "You know how my mom has been arranging blind dates for me, right? This time, she's trying to set me up with Mrs. Mullinsky's son. Mrs. Mullinsky is a good friend of my mom's, and I've known Caleb Mullinsky ever since we were children.

"I'm not interested in Caleb in that way, but my mom keeps trying to create opportunities for us to hang out together. I'm so annoyed that I'm about to lose my mind. I might as well stay here in Mendelson Residence. At the very least, I won't be bothered here. Even though my mom knows that I'm here, she can't tell Caleb to come and look for me."

Kendall chuckled. "I see. I thought you had fallen in love with Frank. If you did, then I would've considered going easy on him for your sake."

"Definitely not," Amelia denied at once.

However, she couldn't stop herself from putting in a good word for Frank. "Kendall, Dylan already came over to get even with Frank. He wasn't the only one who got hurt that day. Frank's injuries were even worse."

Kendall stared at Amelia.

Although Amelia claimed that she didn't love Frank, she was still pleading on his behalf. This meant that she wasn't completely indifferent toward Frank.

"Why are you staring at me like that, Kendall? I'm not trying to plead mercy on Frank's behalf. I just think that he has the freedom to like you, even though he has gone too far."

At that very moment, Frank came over to them.

Ronnie and the other bodyguards immediately stood in front of the women. They didn't want to let Frank get too close.

"Kendall."

Frank's eyes were fixed on Kendall. "You're back. How are you?"

"I'm great," Kendall tossed back icily. "You must be disappointed, huh?"

"Kendall, I…"

Frank felt very conflicted.

He wanted her to be well, but he was also upset that she and Dylan were still very much in love after surviving the various trials and tribulations. He wanted her to suffer at the hands of the Colemans so that she would be disheartened to leave.

"Kendall, I know you're here to get revenge for Dylan. Dylan did a number on me that day too, you know. You can't listen to just his side of the story."

"Dylan's my husband, so of course, I'll listen to just his side of the story. You deserved whatever he did to you. My heart aches for my husband whom you hit, so I'm here to get even with you. Frank, I've told you countless times. We're not involved in any way, and there's no baby either. You're just being delusional. You should see a doctor about that.

"Everything that you've done to try and ruin my marriage with Dylan only made me resent you even more. I've been very clear about this: even if the Colemans chased me out and Dylan divorced me, I still won't marry you, so just give up!"

All color drained from Frank's face.

Amelia sighed to herself when she saw how pale he was. True enough, Kendall was the only one who could hurt Frank.

Kendall hasn't even started hitting him yet. Just a few words from her are enough to crush him.

After a long bout of silence, Frank said quietly, "Since you're here to get even on behalf of Dylan, go ahead. I won't fight back. Still, take it easy. Don't hurt yourself."

"Sir," Desmond called out softly.

Frank raised his hand to stop Desmond from saying anything else.

Amelia wanted to speak up too, but in the end, she kept quiet.

Kendall marched forward and grabbed Frank by the collar. As she raised her fist, she saw him closing his eyes. He genuinely didn't attempt to avoid her attacks.

Kendall glared at Frank for a moment, then turned to glance at Amelia before declaring icily, "My hand will hurt if I hit you, and my husband's heart will ache because of that."

She lowered her fist and let go of Frank's collar, but instead, she shoved him hard and he fell backward onto the floor.
