Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131

"You're blaming Kendall for humiliating me and hurting my pride, but why haven't you reflected on your own problem, huh? If it weren't for your selfish actions of going to the Parkers on your own accord to seek her hand in marriage, she wouldn't have resorted to slitting her wrists in front of me and thus hurting my pride with her action."

At that point, Tilly was stunned beyond words. After quite a while, she finally came up with the words to say, "Dylan, even if you intended to marry Kendall, you should have informed us. How can you sign the marriage papers without revealing a single word to us? You've also kept it a secret all this while, despite signing the papers ages ago."

It's no wonder Dylan brought her back home! He wasn’t trying to exact revenge, but they were just naturally staying in the same house because they're married.

"I thought that this was a personal matter and that I would let you know if it became necessary." For example, right now, Dylan reckoned that it was necessary for him to show the marriage certificates to his grandma and inform her that he was married to Kendall. As such, it was perfectly normal for Kendall to leap into his arms and kiss him. It was reasonable because they were just an overly affectionate couple, and it wasn't because Kendall shamelessly threw herself at him. I like Kendall behaving so unrestrainedly. What's the big deal? What has that got to do with anyone else?

At that moment, Tilly was enraged.

"Kendall, leave the room. I would like to speak with Dylan Coleman in private."

Tilly was furious with Dylan, and she referred to him by his full name at that moment.

Meanwhile, Kendall turned to look at him as he nodded at her. He then took the two marriage certificates from Tilly's hand before taking Kendall's to give her one copy. Subsequently, he said calmly, "Keep this safely. If you lose this, I'll definitely punish you. You won't be able to get away with that just by a simple ten-thousand-word reflection."

She hastily gripped the certificate tightly in her hands and was about to deliver a rebuke. However, she noticed then that Tilly was glaring at her coldly, so she stifled the words that she was about to say. In her mind, though, she thought, I'll deal with him when we get back home later.

"Dylan, I'll wait for you outside."

She took the marriage certificate and left the room.

After Kendall had left, Tilly clutched at her chest and said to Dylan, "Dylan! Do you intend to give me a heart attack?! This is such a major thing and yet you didn’t even bother to let me know!"

"Grandma, you’re fit and healthy, so it would take a lot more than this to give you a heart attack."

Tilly was at a loss for words at the rebuke.

"Grandma, you do want great-grandchildren, right? You haven't held a great-grandchild in your arms, so I'm sure that you wouldn't bear to leave this planet just yet."

Tilly asked, "Do you mean to say that Kendall's pregnant?"

However, Tilly judged by Kendall's appearance that she seemed to have her chastity intact. That meant her grandson hadn't even touched her. Besides, he had trouble performing in bed, so even if she was pregnant, the father of her child would not be Dylan.

"No. Grandma, you've got other grandchildren too. They are old enough to get married and have kids."

At that point, she was at a loss for words.

"Dylan, tell me frankly, what's going on between you and Kendall? You've blamed me for making the decision of going to the Parkers to ask for her hand in marriage without consulting you, and you told me that you were not interested in her. You had no intention of marrying her and she didn't want to marry you either, so that's why she took such a drastic measure. Why did you two sign the marriage papers?"

She noticed that the date of their registration marriage was the same day that Kendall put on an act to kill herself at the Coleman Mansion.

"That is how it is. She changed her mind and agreed to marry me. At the same time, I needed a wife, so since she had agreed to marry me, I decided I would proceed with the marriage. Anyway, I'm in such a bad state, so anyone I marry would be deserving of a better match than me. I'm the one taking advantage of the other party. After all, the person marrying me would be living an entire life of celibacy."

As soon as Tilly heard his words, she felt a sharp pain in her heart and her face turned as pale as a sheet from the torment. She spoke in a wretched tone, "Dylan, are you saying this to torment me? You're the oldest grandson in the Coleman Family and are the head of Coleman Empire Holdings. Who would dare to regard you as a less worthy match? Even if… Even if you have issues performing in bed right now, our family background meant that you would be a great match either way, so no one would think that you've taken advantage of them! We can provide compensation in other ways for them. Dylan, I’ll arrange for the best urologist to provide treatment for you, alright? You should get the condition treated as soon as possible, and once you're cured and have regained your mobility, you’ll still be the most handsome guy in Orapolis!"

Out of all of Tilly's grandsons, Dylan was the only one brought up by her, and she had put in a lot of effort to cultivate him, so their relationship was naturally quite a deep one.

Unfortunately, though, Dylan had suffered a setback and became crippled. His performance in bed had also been affected, and each time Tilly thought of this, she felt very pained by it. She wanted so badly to give Dylan the best of everything in this world to stop him from feeling bad about his situation. However, the women of Orapolis were too realistic. Currently, even Yasmine, who used to be deeply infatuated with Dylan, was no longer a visitor at the Colemans.

Although Tilly hardly stepped out of the mansion, she was fully aware of everything that was happening in Orapolis. Right now, Yasmine and the Zorns had set their sights on Frank Mendelson.

Frank was indeed an outstanding man, and he had always been vying for the top spot with Dylan, be it in public or furtively. Yasmine, who used to be deeply infatuated with Dylan, had now changed her mind and chose Frank over Dylan. Her action was clearly a snub to Dylan.

"Grandma, I don't need to see a urologist," Dylan rejected.

"I've told you all this because I want you to understand that Kendall has obviously suffered by marrying me, and she isn't the one taking advantage of me because I'm not a good match. Grandma, please don’t even think of kicking her out once I recover. I will only marry once in my lifetime, and since I've married her, I would hold her hand and remain married to her in this lifetime. The only exception would be if she abandons me and wishes to leave. Otherwise, we would remain married to each other forever. I hope that you can stop finding fault with her. You should realize that your grandson is now a disabled person, and therefore, I no longer have the right to pick and choose my partner. You don't have a daughter, but you do have a granddaughter, so put yourself in the same position. Every normal being would definitely sympathize with their daughter if their daughter married a man like me."

Tilly responded, "The Parkers agreed for Kendall to marry you, so evidently, in this world, not every parent has their kids' best interests at heart."

"Yes, that's true. Not every parent has their kids' best interests at heart. After all, there was no test to determine whether one was suitable to be a parent before they gave birth. However, my parents-in-law were previously clueless about this as well. They aren't to be blamed for this. Kendall and I were the ones who decided to get married. It was my decision to conceal the marriage after signing the papers and not announce it. Grandma, if you're displeased because of this, direct your anger at me. Don't target my wife. She's quite timid, so I'm worried that she will be frightened by your actions. If she ends up getting nightmares and being awakened at night, that would be disruptive to my sleep as well."

As for Tilly, she opened and shut her mouth several times as she tried to come up with the words to say but failed.

Kendall had moved in for quite some time now, and although Tilly did not interfere in household matters, the latter was aware that the former was not only a daredevil but was also very thick-skinned. It was virtually impossible for Tilly to actually frighten Kendall into getting nightmares.

"Grandma, do you have anything else to say?"

She responded huffily, "You've said everything, so what else can I say?"

"I'll be on my way then. I wouldn’t want to disrupt you while you regulate your emotions. Grandma, if you're still feeling annoyed, perhaps you could look at setting up Yoseph and the others on some blind dates. They're not youngsters anymore, but they're still quite flighty in their ways and refuse to settle down."

If Yoseph realized this, he was most likely going to lament, Dylan, what did I do wrong? Why am I implicated in this when I didn't even do anything?!

Tilly hurriedly mentioned, as soon as she noticed that he was about to walk out, "Hold on, Dylan. Be frank with me. Do you have plans to announce your relationship with Kendall to the public?"
