Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173

Although Kendall was open-minded, Dylan felt unhappy instead. If she didn't feel jealous, it meant that she didn't like him!

Ring, ring! Suddenly, Kendall's phone rang. When she took a look at the caller ID, she said dubiously, "It's from the Taylor Residence."

Amelia had always used her cell phone to contact her, and she had never used the landline in her house. Thinking that, Kendall answered the phone.

"Kendall." It was Sophia's voice.

"Mrs. Taylor, what's wrong?" Kendall asked in concern as she could tell that there was something wrong with Sophia's voice.

Sophia said anxiously, "Kendall, Amelia got into huge trouble."

"Amelia got into huge trouble? What trouble did she get herself into?" Kendall was getting anxious as well. Thinking of her friend's hobby, she asked, "Mrs. Taylor, was Amelia discovered by someone when she was taking pictures of them, and they're causing trouble for her?"

Sophia suddenly burst into tears. Her attitude made Kendall even more worried and she asked over Sophia's cries, "Mrs. Taylor, don't cry yet. Tell me, who did Amelia offend? And what about her? Where is she now?"

Sophia only broke down and cried for a moment before she quickly suppressed her emotions and replied, "Amelia was taken away by the Mendelson Family's bodyguards. It was only then did I know that she actually took a photo of the head of the Mendelson Family and even spread it around, and she was discovered by him."

Kendall was speechless. Frank! Amelia had taken pictures of Frank. Frank was indeed a rare beau, but he was just as unprovokable as Dylan. Although Amelia liked to take pictures of beautiful men, she still knew her place and wouldn't anger the people she couldn't mess with. However, this time, she had directly angered Frank. Did she think Frank is more approachable than Dylan?

"I've already notified her father and brother and asked them to go to the Mendelson Residence to apologize and bring Amelia back. I was really worried, so I called to talk to you." Sophia continued apologetically, "Kendall, I didn't mean to make you nervous on purpose. I'm just a mess right now."

"I understand, Mrs. Taylor. Does Amelia have her phone with her?"

Kendall didn't blame Sophia for calling her to let her know that her best friend had gotten into trouble. After all, she was close with Amelia, so it was normal for Sophia to make a call to her out of anxiety.

"She does, but we couldn't contact her, so the Mendelson Family's bodyguards must've taken it away. I've told that girl many times not to secretly take pictures of others because it's rude behavior, but she never listened. See, now she's gotten herself into trouble."

Sophia felt angry and helpless about her daughter's behavior. Taking pictures of others without permission and posting the photos was an impolite behavior in the first place, but her daughter refused to change.



"Kendall, when Amelia comes back, please help me persuade her to stop doing something like this in the future. I support all of her hobbies, but this is an exception."

Kendall hummed in reply. "Mrs. Taylor, I'll be sure to tell Amelia off. For now, you shouldn't worry too much. Once Amelia apologizes to Mr. Mendelson and deletes the photos, I believe that he wouldn't cause any more trouble for her."

"Let's hope that's the case. Kendall, if you're busy, I won't bother you anymore."

"Mrs. Taylor, let me know when Amelia comes back. I'll talk to her properly."

After agreeing, Sophia hung up. Kendall spaced out for a moment with her phone in her hand, thinking about how Amelia ended up in her previous life.

In her previous life, she and Amelia were also good friends, but because she was obsessed with Jackson, Amelia felt that he was not good enough and persuaded her not to be obsessed with him, and not to fight against her parents for him. However, she did not listen to Amelia's advice and felt that Amelia was blocking her from pursuing her happiness instead, which made her gradually distance herself from Amelia.

After she married Jackson, she had no freedom in the Whittle Family. Unless Amelia came to visit her, it would be difficult for them to meet. Unfortunately, she didn't see Amelia again until the day she died. Perhaps Amelia was angry with her for not fighting back, or there was another reason, but the two hadn't seen each other for a long time.

She only heard a little about Amelia on the grapevine and knew that Amelia still liked to collect photos of beautiful men, and she had offended many bigshots because of this. The Taylor Family suffered a lot because of Amelia's hobby, and later on, Taylor Group fell into shambles as well. Then, she didn't know what happened to Amelia after that.

"What's wrong?" A low and concerned voice sounded in her ears.

When Kendall returned to her senses and met Dylan's worried gaze, she jolted back to reality, suddenly feeling as though she had an epiphany. Yes, she was not who she was in her previous life anymore. She could change her ending, and she could also change Amelia's ending. When Amelia came back, she would have a long talk with her. Now, she was only afraid that Frank would take it out on Taylor Group because of this incident.

"Amelia got into trouble. She likes to collect pictures of handsome men, and this time, she secretly took a picture of Frank and he found out about it. Mrs. Taylor said that she was taken away by the Mendelson Family's bodyguards."

Kendall heaved a sigh and said worriedly, "I don't know what Frank would do to her either. Would he drag Taylor Group into this?"

After a moment of silence, Dylan asked, "You want to help her?"

"She's my closest friend, so of course I'd want to help her if I can." Kendall looked at her husband. She knew that as long as Dylan made a move, he could definitely help Amelia.

He caressed her face and said lightly, "I won't intervene. Come and accompany me for my rehabilitation."

Amelia wasn't someone worth his intervention.

"Don't worry. I can promise that Taylor Group won't collapse from this."

Dylan was only willing to help the Taylor Family on Kendall's behalf.

"Thank you, Dylan."

"Frank wouldn't hurt Amelia. He'll just confine her for a few days at most," he assured her.

However, because of his words, Kendall was unable to say what she wanted to say.

…

Along with his son, Brandon Taylor hurriedly prepared a generous gift and rushed to the Mendelson Family's mansion. After explaining the reason for his visit, the staff let him and his son in. When they entered the main hall, they did not see Amelia, and only saw Frank having his meal in the dining hall.

"President Mendelson." Brandon's face was plastered with a large smile. "Sorry for bothering you."

Frank was almost finished with his meal, so he put down his fork and wiped his mouth with a napkin. Then, he got up and calmly walked out of the dining hall without looking at them. Although his foot that Kendall stepped on was still a little swollen, it did not break his stride. It was only when he was out and about that he deliberately used a wheelchair just to make Kendall feel guilty.

After returning to the couch and taking a seat, Frank looked at the two and said lightly, "President Taylor, please, have a seat."

"Thank you, President Mendelson."

Brandon walked over with his son and placed the generous gifts he brought on the coffee table before sitting down with a smile on his face. "President Mendelson, I came here to apologize. It was because of my negligence that my daughter made a mistake like that. I'm sorry for offending you. I'm humbly begging you, on my behalf, please be benevolent and forgive my daughter this once."

"And don't you worry, President Mendelson. I'll be sure to teach her a proper lesson when we get home. I promise that she won't do it again."

Frank waited for Brandon to finish speaking before he replied impassively, "I only asked someone to invite Miss Taylor over to delete the photos on her phone and hand over any physical photos she has, then apologize to me. After that, I won't bother her anymore. What's wrong, hasn't Miss Taylor gone back yet?"
