Kendall's Sacrifice novel Chapter 179

Chapter 179

"As soon as she came back, she said she was starving and immediately drank a few glasses of water and had a plate of snacks. She's currently in the showers right now. I'll definitely tell her off after she's done with her shower. Kendall, I'm sorry for dragging you into our matter and making you worried," Sophia said apologetically.

"Mrs. Taylor, Amelia is my best friend."

Sophia chuckled. "Then I won't speak about this any further. I'll go prepare a meal for Amelia now. Do come over during the weekend; I'll definitely cook up something delicious for you."

"Alright, I was just thinking that it's been a long time since I last enjoyed your cooking."

Meanwhile, Yasmine had arrived in her car at the Parker Corporation. Since she and Kelly were good friends, everyone was not surprised by her presence in the company. However, she did not come for Kelly today. Right now, she was in an elevator going to the highest floor. Upon noticing Kendall was not around when she entered Jessie's office, she asked in an indifferent tone, "Miss Holmes, where is Kendall Parker?"

"Kendall is out. Do you have business with her, Miss Zorn?"

"Where is she? Isn't it working hours right now?"

Jessie said apologetically, "Miss Zorn, I'm afraid I am in the dark about it. I assume it was under the arrangement of the vice president, as Kendall is under her right now."

Without a word, Yasmine turned and left for Kelly's office, maneuvering through the place like it was her own backyard.

"Miss Zorn, the vice president is busy at the moment." Cameron tried to prevent Yasmine from entering Kelly's office but to no avail, as Yasmine continued marching forward as though she did not hear Cameron. She pushed open the doors to the office to find Kelly on the phone. Although she did not know who was on the other end of the call, she could see that Kelly wasn't looking too good. Nevertheless, Kelly very quickly ended the call after noticing Yasmine.

"Vice President, Miss Zorn insisted on entering," Cameron said apologetically, as she was specifically instructed not to allow anyone to disrupt her.

"It's fine. Go back to work, Miss Sanders," Kelly said while gesturing for her secretary to leave, as she understood that a woman like Yasmine Zorn was not someone her secretary could handle. After Cameron had left, Kelly got up and went around her desk before she asked with a smile, "Yasmine, what brings you here today?"

"Where's Kendall Parker?" Yasmine asked.

"You're looking for her?"

"Kelly, I need you to tell me where Kendall Parker is."

Noticing the anger in Yasmine's tone, Kelly remembered the incident from the day before and quickly figured out the reason for her friend's presence. "Yasmine, you do not have to mind what Kendall said. She's a person that doesn't think before speaking."



"Kelly, you don't need to defend her. I don't care that she doesn't think before speaking. Anyhow, I am very unhappy, as she had made me angry the whole day. If you're telling me to not vent this anger of mine on her, are you telling me to accept being wronged?" Yasmine then sneered, "You don't have to keep up your pretense. Kelly, I'm sure you're secretly happy that I'll be venting my anger on her. Tell me, where is Kendall right now?"

Yasmine's words made Kelly speechless. If it was someone else that had said this to her, Kelly would have turned against that person. "Kendall went to meet Mr. Dawson in Prestige Electronics. He invited us to go fishing with him. Since I was busy, I've asked Kendall to go instead."

"Give me the address."

Hearing that, Kelly then gave the address of Prestige Electronics to Yasmine and told her where Leonel would be fishing even though she had not even told Kendall when Kendall had asked her about it. "Yasmine, what do you plan to do to Kendall?"

Yasmine threw her a sidelong glance, revealing a half-smile. "You would worry about her?"

Kelly had felt that Yasmine would speak to her with slight sarcasm ever since the incident of Jackson sexually assaulting Krystal. Nonetheless, she put on a smile. "On paper, she is my sister. I would have to show some concern. Yasmine, for my sake, do show some mercy on her. Otherwise, my parents will pin the blame on me." Since Yasmine had come by Parker Corporation to look for Kendall, Kelly's parents would naturally connect the dots that it was Kelly who had told Yasmine where Kendall went.

There was a twinkle in Yasmine's eyes as she glanced at the Cartier necklace around Kelly's neck. Suddenly, she reached her hands out and lightly lifted the necklace before she said, "Kelly, you look really good with this necklace. It makes you look so prestigious." After saying that, she let go of the necklace before saying in an indifferent tone, "Don't worry, it won't end with her death. Since she's your opponent, I'll leave her for you to deal with. I'm merely going to teach her a little lesson on how she should be talking to me in the future." She then turned and left the office.

Kelly felt that her best friend was implying something, but chose not to think much about it and escorted Yasmine out.

"Kelly, you don't have to escort me since you're busy," Yasmine said but soon stopped in her tracks before turning her sights on Kelly. "Brian's birthday is coming up. Be sure to sincerely pick out a gift for him, alright?" She looked at Kelly with her eyes laced with a vague emotion.

Kelly understood what Yasmine was implying and had her face immediately tinged with red. However, she smiled as she replied, "I will definitely prepare a gift for Brian for his birthday."

Brian had planned to only invite a few friends over for a meal for his birthday, as he did not want to make a big deal out of it.

In the end, Kelly still escorted Yasmine to the elevator. It was only when the elevator door had closed that Kelly turned around and went back into her office.

…

In the Coleman Empire Holdings.

The moment Dylan left his office, Ronnie came behind him and started wheeling him forward while reporting, "Young Master Dylan, I received Skye's call saying that Miss Zorn has gone to the Parker Corporation. I assume it was to find the young mistress. However, the young mistress seemed to not be in, as Miss Zorn left the company fairly quickly."

Dylan hummed in assent before he ordered in his deep, low voice, "Tell Skye to continue monitoring Yasmine Zorn while staying out of her sight. Should that woman try to do something to Kendall, have Skye and the others deal with the situation accordingly." He was well aware of his woman's capabilities. Yasmine alone won't be able to harm Kendall.

"Understood." As soon as Ronnie wheeled Dylan to the entrance of the conference room, Toddy took over for Ronnie and pushed Dylan into the room. After that, Ronnie repeated Dylan's orders to Skye to continue monitoring Yasmine.

Dylan understood Yasmine and Laura very well. He knew that Laura would unintentionally leak information to Yasmine when he asked Laura to help design forty sets of daily outfits for Kendall.

Since Yasmine had failed to obtain Dylan in the past, with how accustomed she was to being arrogant, she would most definitely make things difficult for Kendall out of jealousy, as she knew how much Dylan cherished her.

The reason why Dylan did not arrange for a bodyguard to secretly protect Kendall was twofold. First, it was because he believed in her capability to handle herself. Second, it was to serve as some sort of training for Kendall. As his wife, Kendall would have to face many obstacles in the future, including the endless conspiracies and schemes.

With all that being said though, Kendall was still his beloved wife, which was why he couldn't just be indifferent to his wife, so he arranged for a bodyguard to monitor Yasmine. This way, he could immediately go to his wife's side at the first sight of Yasmine causing trouble, and he would be Kendall's knight in shining armor.

Nevertheless, Dylan felt that he might've made an unnecessary arrangement. After all, Kendall would definitely overwhelm Yasmine if it were only Yasmine alone going at her. Although that would mean Kendall would offend the Zorn Family, he thought. Then again, with me as her backer, she has nothing to be afraid of.
