"Mom, I'm not doing it for myself; I'm doing it for the Parker Corporation and you guys. I'm afraid you will be deceived. If this Kendall is fake, then the real Kendall will be in danger at this very moment, and she may be waiting for us to save her. Mom, plastic surgery is getting better and better now. Maybe someone has been watching our family long ago, and they had plastic surgery to become Kendall, waiting for the opportunity to replace her. After all, it's only been over a year since Kendall was acknowledged as one of us, so it's easy to substitute her. By doing this, that fake not only can benefit from Dylan's vast wealth but also get all the assets from the Parker Family. With so many benefits, who wouldn't do it?" Charlotte's face was still ugly, and she was still very angry. However, she listened to Kelly's reasoning.
She recalled that after acknowledging Kendall as her daughter, Kendall remained estranged and polite to her and her husband, and their mother-daughter relationship was also very awkward. She tried hard to assimilate into her daughter's world, but her daughter blocked her from her world.
Kelly's words were unpleasant, but Charlotte had to admit that what Kelly said was the truth.
In fact, Jackson and Kendall's current relationship was not normal at all.
In the past, Kendall loved Jackson very much. She listened to Jackson all the time and was head over heels in love with him. Charlotte had also complained to her husband before about this and mentioned that her daughter seemed to have never seen a man before to have loved Jackson so subserviently.
When Kendall came back from the Coleman Family for the first time, in Kelly's words, she really seemed like a different person, getting close to Charlotte almost instantly.
At that time, Charlotte was surprised and delighted.
As for Jackson, Kendall became completely indifferent to him, a stark contrast to her previous mad obsession. Hence, various signs told Charlotte that this Kendall might really be fake and there was a conspiracy.
If this Kendall is fake, is the real Kendall still alive?
When Charlotte thought about it, her face turned pale, and her body trembled.
What if someone murdered my precious daughter?
"Mom." Kelly quickly supported her. Knowing that her plan was successful, she comforted Charlotte softly, explaining, "Mom, this is just my guess, and it can't be taken as the absolute truth unless we have evidence to prove that this Kendall is fake."
Charlotte looked at her and asked, "How do we prove it? If she is fake, she must have made a foolproof plan."
"Mom, have you forgotten how you acknowledged Kendall at the beginning? You did a DNA paternity test and confirmed that Kendall is your biological daughter, so you exchanged me and Kendall." Kelly reminded her adoptive mother. "Mom, when Kendall comes back, you can get a few strands of her hair, then take her hair to make a new paternity test, and when the results come out, you'll know if she's fake."
Agreeing with the plan, Charlotte nodded. "You're right. Even if someone gets plastic surgery to look like Kendall, the DNA cannot be faked. After DNA identification, it will be clear whether she is real or fake. Kelly, keep this matter a secret first. Don't let Kendall know. It will hurt Kendall to be suspected by us like this. If it turns out that you're wrong, she will definitely be sad if she knows I suspected her identity after listening to you."
Charlotte listened to Kelly's words and thought about having another paternity test with Kendall, but she was also worried that Kelly would be wrong, and that the misunderstanding would hurt Kendall.
Although Kendall returned to the Parker Family, her heart was still with the Woods Family.
If Kendall knew that her mother suspected that she was fake, maybe she would sadly go back to the Woods Family.
"Mom, I know, so don't worry. I will definitely keep it a secret, and I won't reveal the slightest bit in front of Kendall." That'd alert Kendall, of course.
Kelly had already decided that the current Kendall was fake.
She was just waiting for Charlotte and Kendall to do another paternity test, and when she got the results, she would be able to kick Kendall out of the Parker Residence. She could even send Kendall to prison.
The Coleman Family would not spare Kendall lightly either, and Kendall would be rendered disabled even if she wasn't killed.
"Mom, only we know about this matter. Don't tell Dad first, and we can tell him when the result comes out."
Charlotte pursed her lips and said, "I understand."
Kelly's beautiful eyes flickered as she took Charlotte's arm again and said, "Mom, let's go downstairs for dinner."
Kendall didn't know that Kelly had instigated her mother to do another paternity test with her. She brought her best friend and accompanied Dylan to dinner, then ordered her driver, Henry, to take Amelia back to the Taylor Residence. As for her, Dylan personally delivered her to the door of Orapolis Etiquette Institute.
"Hubby, I have to go to class."
"Yeah."
"I'll kiss you and get out of the car."
"Go ahead." Kendall smiled and kissed his cheek.
When she opened the door to get out of the car, Dylan said to her, "I'll pick you up tonight."
Knowing that he was worried that Frank would come to pester her again, Kendall did not refuse and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll wait for you to pick me up."
"Go."
Kendall waved to him and turned to enter the school.
It wasn't until her figure disappeared that Dylan asked the driver to turn the car around and return to the Coleman Residence.
...
"Young Master Dylan."
As soon as Dylan got out of the car, he heard Vivian's respectful call before he got into the wheelchair.
Dylan didn't even look at her and got into the wheelchair calmly.
Ronnie then began pushing him into the house.
"Young Master Dylan." Vivian took two steps forward and called respectfully again.
"If you have something to say, speak. If you have nothing to say, get out!" Dylan spoke coldly.
Vivian almost ran away, but she steadied herself and blurted, "Young Master Dylan, Old Madam Coleman wants to see you, so please come over now."
Dylan's face was tense, and his lips were pursed tightly. His cold aura made Vivian quietly take two steps back.
Tilly always sent her over, causing her to offend Dylan. They really should stop letting me do the dirty work.
After a long time, Dylan spat out the words coldly. "Got it."
When Vivian got the answer, she let out a sigh of relief, then said respectfully, "Young Master Dylan, I'll go back and inform her."
After saying that, she took two steps back, turned around, and walked quickly toward the main house.
Every time she came to Dylan to deliver a message, she had a feeling that she would suffer for the rest of her life. Although Dylan had become a little warmer after having Kendall around, Vivian was still very afraid of him.
Ronnie continued to push Dylan into the house.
"Young Master Dylan, you are back." Amos went forward, then smiled and said, "The kitchen has just delivered ginseng soup over. Do you wish to have it now?"
"Yeah," Dylan responded lightly.
Ronnie seemed to pause when he heard Amos' words. Soon, Dylan was sitting at the dining table, and Amos poured soup for Dylan.
"Ronnie."
Dylan suddenly stopped Ronnie, who was about to withdraw, so Ronnie came back and stood beside him, respectfully waiting for his order. Then, Dylan said mischievously, "There is too much soup. I can't finish it alone, so you can have half of it."
Soup? Ronnie was caught off guard by the sudden request.
