Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 567

Chapter 567

Kelly's expression darkened. She wanted to criticize Laura, but as she recalled her purpose for the visit, she held her anger back. Then, she said impassively, "Kendall is lucky as she married Dylan. I'm only on the losing side because she has Dylan's support. Otherwise…"

If not for Dylan's presence, the Parker Corporation would've fallen into her hands, and her plan would've turned out successful. According to her plan, after she killed the Parkers, all their wealth would belong to her. Unfortunately, things didn't go to plan.

There was no doubt that Dylan's presence had derailed the plan that Kelly and Jackson had jointly come up with. Now, Jackson was in trouble while she wasn't in a better state, as her reputation and status had been badly affected.

After putting on a milder expression, Laura commented resentfully, "Kendall is extremely lucky."

In fact, she was regretful as well. If she were willing to stay by Dylan's side after an accident happened to him, she would've stood a chance to become his wife. At that time, none of them could have expected that Dylan would recover one day.

"Kendall is our common enemy, Laura."

Laura promptly steered clear of this matter. "Kelly, I don't intend to go against Kendall. Although I'm jealous that she's lucky, I can do nothing about it. I understand that you've decided to go against Kendall, but please don't drag me into this."

She still had a business to run. Going against Kendall wouldn't bring her any benefits, and she couldn't possibly endure Dylan's suppression and retaliation. The man now saw Kendall as his most valuable treasure. Argh! I used to have the chance…

Kelly announced with a sneer, "Laura, even though you won't admit it, I know what's on your mind."

"Why don't you tell me the reason you came?"

After a moment of silence, Kelly decided to break a piece of shocking news to Laura. "Kendall is likely pregnant."

"What? Is Kendall pregnant? Whose child is it? Dylan's? Isn't he…" Laura's jaw dropped as disbelief was written all over her face.

Over a long period of time, she had restrained herself from doing anything that might harm Kendall. That was because she believed that Kendall didn't have any sex life. So what if Kendall could enjoy the privileges of being Dylan's wife and had the man's love? She could never make love to Dylan.

When she talked to Kelly over the phone previously, the latter said worriedly that Dylan might recover and impregnate Kendall with his child. At that time, she didn't take it seriously. As such, she turned down Kelly's request to stuff some drugs inside the clothes.

"Whose child could it be other than Dylan's? They have always been lovey-dovey. Kendall will never cheat on Dylan, nor does she have a chance to do so because they spend most of their time together. She could even put down Jackson, the man she used to love the most. Who else could make her betray Dylan?"

Kelly knew that once she broke the news to Laura, the latter would be shocked and hate Kendall more. Regardless of whether Kendall was indeed pregnant, Kelly could never let the child come into this world.

"But… Dylan is impotent." Laura couldn't accept this truth.

Kelly sneered and questioned, "Have you made love to Dylan before? How do you know he's really impotent? It's just a rumor that has gotten far from the truth."

Laura's face turned pale as her eyes were filled with hatred. "Why didn't Dylan clarify?"

Everyone thought that Dylan was impotent. Under normal circumstances, a man hated it when others said that he couldn't make love to a woman. Dylan was a bright and wealthy man, so why did he put up with it and never make a clarification? Was he trying to make his admirers give up on him?

There was no doubt he was ruthless and heartless in other people's eyes. In actuality, he was a loving man, for he treated Kendall truly well. He was only tender when he was in front of Kendall, and he wouldn't spare any woman a glance other than his wife.

Kelly pressed her lips together for a moment before saying, "I have no idea why Dylan didn't clarify. I've always been afraid of Dylan. Whenever I see him, my legs will turn to jelly. That's why I don't have the guts to speculate what's on his mind."

A flushing Laura said, "I suppose he was trying to make his admirers give up on him. No, he was just trying to find out if we were sincere to him, and all of us had been fooled."

Besides Laura and Yasmine, the other admirers had also left Dylan after the accident.

Tilly wanted to make her grandson happy, so she went looking for a suitable woman for him. Nonetheless, all his admirers had backed down. As such, Tilly contacted the Parkers and played cupid with Dylan and Kendall.

The more Laura thought about it, the paler her face became. She was regretful of her decision back then.

Although Dylan didn't love her, they were friends at the very least. Moreover, she was on good terms with Alice at that time. After the accident, if she had the courage to confess her love and compete with Yasmine, she might have gained the favor of Dylan and the Colemans and had the chance to stay by his side.

Now, she just hoped there was a drug in the world that could reverse time and allow her to make things right.

"Kelly, do you think Kendall might have found out that Dylan isn't impotent before everyone else? Was that why she changed her mind and dumped Jackson? She then made use of Dylan and became a winner in life."

Kelly questioned, "How did she find out that Dylan is fine?"

If not for the fact that Kendall was most likely pregnant, they would still believe that Dylan was impotent. Laura parted her lips, but she was unable to refute the other woman.

"Laura, what do you think about Kendall's pregnancy? Can you put up with the fact that she'll give birth to Dylan's child?"

Laura blurted out, "Certainly, I don't want to see that happen. I hope she'll go to hell."

"I don't want to see her give birth to Dylan's child either, and I definitely want her to go to hell. As such, we're in the same boat, Laura. Kendall is our common enemy, so we must join forces and deal with her."

Laura stared at her. "You want me to put what you'd previously told me into action?"

Kelly smiled. "You've always been clever."

Laura fell silent.

"As long as we're careful, we'll succeed. No one will realize that there's something in the clothes," Kelly said maliciously. "It's only been a short time since Kendall was found to be pregnant. She'll be three to four months into her pregnancy when winter comes. If she loses her child by then, it'll be devastating to her health. Let us pray that she'll become infertile after the miscarriage."

Laura asked hesitantly, "What if we're exposed? I'm the one who makes those clothes. Dylan will never let me off."

She had witnessed how ruthless Dylan could be. While she didn't want to see Kendall live a happy life and give birth to Dylan's child, she had to protect her own interests. Unless she decided not to do it, her plot might be exposed one day.

If she decided to work with Kelly and harm Kendall and her child, regardless of whether her plan would be successful, her action might be exposed one day. When that happened, both she and Kelly could never withstand Dylan's retaliation. Now, Laura had a successful career, so she was afraid of losing everything, including her life.

"No one will find out that there are drugs in the clothes. I'm not telling you to make clothes full of those drugs. Just stuff a little bit in every coat so she'll smell the scent daily. As time passes, she'll suffer from miscarriage."

Kelly hoped that Kendall would lose her child when she was seven to eight months into her pregnancy. That way, it would be even more harmful to her health.
