Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 565

Chapter 565

A dexterous Frank easily caught the mug Dylan hurled.

Instantly, Frank's forehead was beaded with cold sweat as he snapped at the man in front of him, "Dylan, if this mug had hit me, my head would've been bleeding. If you think this mug is ugly, you can just tell me about it. I don't mind buying a new one for you."

Seeing that he had missed his target, Dylan sported a dark expression and glared at him.

Dylan and his wife had no idea what kind of role Frank played in Kendall's dreams. However, since both Frank and Kendall misunderstood that the child belonged to Frank, one could easily figure out what Frank had done to the woman. Perhaps Frank was also one of the masterminds who had harmed Dylan back then.

In real life, the married couple enjoyed a harmonious life. There was no denying that Dylan still held some grudges against Frank, who kept pestering Kendall and regarded the child as his own in the past.

Frank didn't dare pass the mug back to him, for he was worried Dylan would try to hurt him again. Following that, he fished out the check from his coat and passed it to Dylan respectfully. There was a fawning smile on his handsome face, and his eyes seemed as bright as the stars. If Dylan were a woman, he would've fallen head over heels for Frank.

"Dylan, even though I'm a privileged member of the bank, I couldn't get so much cash without an appointment in advance. Here's a check for you. Do you think it's alright?"

Dylan stared at Frank, who seemed to be fawning over him despite his nervous expression. Though they had been enemies since the beginning, they were also familiar with one another.

Presently, Frank appeared humble as he buttered Dylan up and willingly gave him a large sum of money.

Dylan could see that Frank indeed cared about Amelia. After taking the check, Dylan put it down on the table and motioned for Frank to give the mug back to him.

"You'll really injure me."

Dylan sneered after hearing Frank's comment. Funny joke, Frank. "If you're injured and blood-soaked, won't you show up in front of Ms. Taylor and make her feel sorry for you?"

Frank asked, "Do you want me to arouse Amelia's pity?"

"I didn't say that."

"Even if that's your plan, you still can't injure me with a mug. If Amelia feels heartbroken for me, she'll start hating you, affecting her friendship with Ken… your wife. When that happens, it'll be my fault."

Frank didn't want to undermine the friendship between Amelia and Kendall. Certainly, he wouldn't pester Kendall again, and he realized that he had fallen in love with Amelia. However, he still owed Kendall and her daughter a lot, so he had to make it up to them. Therefore, he couldn't let Amelia and Kendall become enemies.

Dylan snorted. "You think too highly of yourself, Frank."

Hearing that, Frank was rendered speechless. Dylan was right, for there was no way Amelia would blame him for anything because of Frank.

"Frank, there's nothing much I can teach you, but I have something to say from the bottom of my heart. If you've indeed fallen in love with Ms. Taylor, you must show her your sincerity. You have to make her believe that your love for her is real. If you want to woo a woman, you have to put that into action. No one else can help you with it. Also, stop picking at Ronnie. He didn't turn Ms. Taylor down because he despised her. It's just that his family isn't suitable for her."

Compared to Ronnie in the Muller Family, there was no doubt Frank was in a much better position in the Mendelson Family, considering the fact that Frank was the leader of his family. As such, only the former patriarch had the guts to be rude to him. Even the current patriarch was polite to Frank.

Moreover, Frank had absolute power in the Mendelson Family. Even his parents couldn't affect him in any way. As long as he loved Amelia, she would live happily with the Mendelsons.

Hearing that, Frank fell silent.

"There's nothing else I have to say, so you can get lost now. I'm busy, so I don't have time to discuss how to woo a woman with you." Dylan had accepted a lot of money from Frank, but he chased him away after talking to him briefly. It seemed that it was easy to earn money from Frank.

Instead of leaving, Frank took a seat and snapped, "Will you please be more professional, Dylan?! You've accepted a lot of money from me as a consultant fee, but you chase me away without even offering me a cup of tea. I'm not going to get lost. I'll just sit here and talk to you more for a while."

Dylan kept the check and said impassively, "Well, I've earned enough money to buy the child's formula milk at the very least."

Frank refuted, "Are you going to have a dozen children? Why do you need so much money to buy formula milk?" I just gave you several million.

Hearing that, Dylan rolled his eyes at him. Frank pursed his lips for a moment before saying, "If I come looking for you every day, all of the Mendelson Family's wealth will be yours in no time."

"If you don't want to lose all of the Mendelson Family's wealth, then stop looking for me."

Frank was speechless at that.

"Don't make it sound like I beg you to see me, Frank."

Finding the other man unreasonable, Frank got to his feet and poured himself a cup of tea. As he sipped the tea, he asked, "Dylan, would you consider collaborating with me?"

Dylan replied dispassionately, "You want a collaboration? Are you ready to merge the Mendelson Group with the Coleman Empire Holdings?"

Both companies were involved in similar industries. As such, both men had been competing with each other for years, and it was only natural that Dylan held some grudges against Frank.

"Dylan, you're impossible. Do any nice things ever come out of your mouth?"

Frank, you're just rude. "It's not like you're someone who will say nice things. Don't you know that you're notorious for being sharp-tongued?" Dylan refuted.

Frank was rendered speechless for a moment before calling out, "Dylan."

"Can you finish your words at once and stop calling my name all the time? Those who have no idea what's going on might think that I've dumped you or something."

Frank's face fell. "I'm straight."

"I didn't say you're not straight."

"You're unreasonable. How am I supposed to talk to you?"

"We're not friends, so it's only natural that there's nothing to talk about between us. Moreover, you were a love rival who wanted to snatch my wife. I'm magnanimous enough to let you have a seat here and drink tea for Ms. Taylor's sake. Otherwise, I would've swept you out of my office."

Dylan went on to comment coldly, "Where do you think my company is? It's not a place where you can come and go as you please."

An incensed Frank growled, "I'm not going anywhere! I'll stay right here!"

Dylan directly used the interphone, and when Toddy picked up the call, he ordered, "Tell Ms. Taylor to come over and take this madman away."

"Dylan!" Frank blew his top. "How dare you tell Amelia to come over and take me away! You are the crazy one! Dang it!"

Nonetheless, Dylan only glanced unenthusiastically at him.

At that moment, Frank felt like he was a clown in front of Dylan. Even if he wanted to fight Dylan, he knew he wasn't a match for him. Argh! Have I paid an exorbitant fee only to get humiliated?

A moment later, Frank calmed himself down and cut to the chase. "Is my goddaughter with your wife now?"

He wouldn't even dare call Kendall by her name, for he was worried Dylan would kill him. He had fallen in love with Amelia. As such, he felt diffident in front of Dylan. He was worried that Dylan would tell Kendall about it, and the woman would then pass it on to Amelia.

When that time came, Amelia might start hating Frank.
