Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 606

Chapter 606

A row of cars was parked at the Parker Corporation's entrance. It was Dylan and his team of bodyguards waiting for Kendall to return to the company.

Of course, Toddy was there too.

He had been stationed at the Parker Corporation building's entrance the whole day, waiting for Emma. He knew she was busy with work, so he didn't bother her either.

Henry received Kendall's text asking him to wait for her at the company. That way, Emma didn't have to drive her all the way to the Coleman mansion.

Meanwhile, Dylan and Toddy stood across from each other while leaning against Dylan's Rolls-Royce. Toddy was even taking a drag from his cigarette.

"So? How did it go?" Dylan asked concerningly as Toddy's boss and friend.

"Same old," said Toddy after taking a serious drag.

Dylan fell silent for a moment before saying, "I can only be with you in spirit. Alright, put your cigarette out. My wife's arriving soon, and she can't inhale second-hand smoke."

"I'll stop right after this one."

"You're pretty crazy with the alcohol and cigarettes lately. Forget about winning Miss Finley back. Consider yourself lucky if she doesn't hate you for this."

"Well, isn't that great news for your brother-in-law," commented Toddy wryly. "He's one less competition away from Emma."

"Will you give way?"

"Absolutely not!"

"In that case, why beat yourself up?"

To that, Toddy responded with another serious drag of his cigarette.

Just then, a car appeared far away, driving in their direction. It took Toddy two shakes to make out it was Emma's car, and he quickly stubbed his cigarette, asked Ronnie to get rid of it for him, then popped a piece of gum into his mouth to get rid of some of the tobacco scent.

Standing aside, Dylan couldn't help being amused by his assistant's actions.

"Master Dylan's here," Emma said with a smile. The ladies could already see the spectacle at the entrance before they were even close.

Kendall smiled too. "What is he doing here? Mr. Fisher alone would have sufficed."

"Sure. I bet you're actually in seventh heaven."

Having been found out, Kendall chuckled bashfully.

Later, the two men approached them after Emma pulled over.

One helped Kendall open the door while the other tapped on Emma's window.

"Darling." Kendall hugged Dylan immediately after getting out of the car. Then, the couple walked toward the Rolls-Royce in each other's arms.

As for Toddy and Emma's issue, the couple chose to turn a blind eye to it, letting the two figure things out themselves.

After arriving home, bowls of soup awaited Kendall again, but there was an additional bowl of soup this time—Yoseph had returned.

But Jane didn't come with him.

Upon learning about Kendall's pregnancy, Yoseph followed the crowd and made his dear sister-in-law a bowl of nutritious soup.

As he was an excellent cook, the soup he made was superb as well, and Kendall graciously finished the entire bowl of soup he made.

At that, Yoseph exulted to Dylan, "I bet my baby nephew likes me. Kendall wouldn't vomit at all after drinking my soup!"

The next second, he found his older brother glaring at him, and he hurriedly corrected himself. "I-I mean, Kendall wouldn't puke at all."

"If you don't have anything nice to say, shut up!" Dylan reproached, leading Yoseph to chuckle awkwardly.

"Yoseph, where's Jane? Did she not come over with you?" Kendall felt stuffed, having eaten at the hotel and now drunk another bowl of soup, so she decided to wander around in the living room. "It's been a while since I last saw Jane. I kind of miss her."

Kendall loved the young woman, who was forthright and informal.

"She'll come over a little later. I came back beforehand to discuss our engagement with my family."

"You guys are getting engaged? That's wonderful, Yoseph. Congratulations!" Kendall congratulated with surprise.

"Thanks, Kendall. It took me a long time before Jane finally said yes. So, I have to sort it out quickly. Since Grandma's picking a date to send the betrothal gifts over to your family, she can also pick a date for Jane and me too."

Yoseph and Jane were truly childhood sweethearts, and the two had long been in love with each other. Though it was only recently that they finally took their relationship to the next step, both families had long regarded them as a couple.

Jane just wanted to experience what it felt like to be courted and also go on dates, and Yoseph fulfilled all of her wishes.

Seeing that the two were practically inseparable, both families began discussing their marriage. The couple would first be engaged. Then the betrothal gifts would be delivered. After that, they would get their marriage certificate signed before finally holding the grand wedding.

After Yoseph learned that the family was arranging Dylan and Kendall's wedding, he impulsively suggested that they should have a joint wedding. However, Jane rejected the idea after learning about it.

"Not only is your brother super handsome, but he's also incredibly prestigious. What's more, Kendall's stunning too. Their wedding is destined to be a grand one, and everyone's attention will only be on them. We can't even call ourselves sidekicks on that day. I'll only ever marry once. I don't want to be even less than a sidekick on my wedding," reasoned Jane.

But Jana didn't coma with him.

Upon laarning about Kandall's pragnancy, Yosaph followad tha crowd and mada his daar sistar-in-law a bowl of nutritious soup.

As ha was an axcallant cook, tha soup ha mada was suparb as wall, and Kandall graciously finishad tha antira bowl of soup ha mada.

At that, Yosaph axultad to Dylan, "I bat my baby naphaw likas ma. Kandall wouldn't vomit at all aftar drinking my soup!"

"If you don't hava anything nica to say, shut up!" Dylan raproachad, laading Yosaph to chuckla awkwardly.

"Yosaph, whara's Jana? Did sha not coma ovar with you?" Kandall falt stuffad, having aatan at tha hotal and now drunk anothar bowl of soup, so sha dacidad to wandar around in tha living room. "It's baan a whila sinca I last saw Jana. I kind of miss har."

"Sha'll coma ovar a littla latar. I cama back baforahand to discuss our angagamant with my family."

"You guys ara gatting angagad? That's wondarful, Yosaph. Congratulations!" Kandall congratulatad with surprisa.

"Thanks, Kandall. It took ma a long tima bafora Jana finally said yas. So, I hava to sort it out quickly. Sinca Grandma's picking a data to sand tha batrothal gifts ovar to your family, sha can also pick a data for Jana and ma too."

Yosaph and Jana wara truly childhood swaathaarts, and tha two had long baan in lova with aach othar. Though it was only racantly that thay finally took thair ralationship to tha naxt stap, both familias had long ragardad tham as a coupla.

Aftar Yosaph laarnad that tha family was arranging Dylan and Kandall's wadding, ha impulsivaly suggastad that thay should hava a joint wadding. Howavar, Jana rajactad tha idaa aftar laarning about it.

"Not only is your brothar supar handsoma, but ha's also incradibly prastigious. What's mora, Kandall's stunning too. Thair wadding is dastinad to ba a grand ona, and avaryona's attantion will only ba on tham. Wa can't avan call oursalvas sidakicks on that day. I'll only avar marry onca. I don't want to ba avan lass than a sidakick on my wadding," raasonad Jana.

Yoseph thought Jane was right, too, so he quickly changed his mind.

They would never be able to outshine his brother and sister-in-law. So, it was best they picked another date.

Jane thought they should get engaged first before holding the wedding the following early spring. However, Yoseph thought that was too late. Oh, how he wished he could marry Jane immediately.

Having tasted the sweetness of romance, Yoseph thought days felt like years, even though he had only been away from Jane for a few days.

"Getting engaged first is good," Dylan commented plainly.

"I want the wedding to be held sooner, but Jane wanted to push it to early next spring. But, hey, it's down to her. I'm good as long as she's willing to marry me."

Jane and Yoseph had barely even affianced, but the man had already joined Team Uxorious in advance.

To that, Dylan only hummed a response, then turned to Kendall. "Come, honey. I'll go on a stroll with you."

Yoseph had wanted to brag about how happy he and Jane were, but seeing that Dylan had already signaled him to leave, he swallowed his words and stood up. "I'll be heading back now. Just let me know if there's anything you want to eat, alright, Kendall? I'll cook up anything for you, and by next year, I'll be able to carry my dear chubby baby niece."

Is it me, or are my in-laws raising me like the family's pet pig? Kendall mused.

"Thank you for your concern, but I can take care of your sister-in-law just fine." Dylan glared daggers at his brother.

"I don't mean it like that, Dylan. I just want my niece to eat better."

"Are you saying I will abuse my wife and daughter?"

"I-I, um, I gotta go," Yoseph stuttered.

Yoseph dared not say anymore, for he knew he was only making things worse, and with that, he scurried away.

Goodness, Dylan's really overbearing!

He genuinely merely intended to make some delicious food for Kendall, and only when Kendall feasted would her baby come out chubby and adorable.

Meanwhile, a chuckle escaped Kendall as she watched Yoseph scurry away, and she turned to her man, saying, "You do remember that's your dear little brother, right? He meant well. You didn't have to glare and reproach him like that. Look at how terrified he was."

"I know he means well," said Dylan as he held her hand and walked out of the house with her. "But he needs to work on his speech. The way he put it, it's as if I don't look after you and our baby and like we don't feed you well here."

Alright, you're the boss, Kendall mused. After all, he had always been overbearing.
