Love Knows No Bounds novel (Kendall and Dylan) novel Chapter 125

"Dylan," Kendall gently called out his name.

They had just enjoyed a spicy moment with each other, so she sounded quite breathless at this moment. Her soft and tender tone of voice was irresistible to Dylan as he lowered his head and kissed her on the side of her lips.

"Since you like having pets, I’ll get someone to buy a few cats and dogs for you. Would you like some rabbits too? You can have some of each, but they'll be at Pet Palace. You can head over everyday to visit them and there are also people there to care for these little animals."

This was the most that Dylan could concede for his darling wife. It was indeed a solution best of both worlds.

As the generous and kind words of her husband sunk in, Kendall's eyes brightened. "Is that true? Are you really going to get me some pets?"

It was a very rare thing for Dylan to smile at that point as he pulled her up from his desk and allowed her to continue snuggling in his arms. However, they were now facing each other unlike before.

"If you don't like the ones from me, you can get them yourself and I'll foot the bill."

"No, I would be happy with anything that you purchase."

Kendall quickly responded, "I've got two ragdoll cats at my mom's house. I'll bring them back with me the next time I visit. I'll keep them at Pet Palace with the other animals, so they can accompany each other." After all, it would be the more the merrier with the ragdoll cats.

"Did you buy those two cats yourself?"

"No. My mom bought it for me."

As soon as Dylan heard that it was a gift from his mother-in-law, he did not say anything further. Initially, he thought it was a gift from Jackson.

"They're your cats, so it's up to you." Although Dylan was usually quite domineering, he could still accept it if the animals were from his mother-in-law.

"Thanks, Dylan. You're so kind to me." Kendall expressed her gratitude sincerely.

He looked at her and replied, "You're the one who accosted me and bit me while yelling at me to take responsibility for you. If I don't treat you well, I'm afraid that you might take a couple more bites out of me."

She blushed instantly and buried her face into his arms as she wrapped both arms around his waist with a contented expression. She found that although he was unable to walk, the muscles around his waist remained firm; she also cheekily pinched him around the waist, to which he swiftly removed her hands from there.

He feels ticklish! Kendall seemed to have made a new discovery.

"Dylan, what was on your mind back then? Didn't you find it weird that I did such a drastic thing?"

Dylan's expression was quite thoughtful as he remained silent for quite some time before responding, "I figured that I would marry you and then torment you to death, so that you'd regret your actions for the rest of your life."

However, their relationship deepened from then on after they signed the marriage papers. Gradually, he changed his mind.

She lifted her head and beamed at him. "Thanks for not tormenting me, Dylan."

Dylan pinched her on the cheek. "You shouldn't thank me just yet. You have still yet to hand in the ten-thousand-words reflection letter that you owe me. When are you planning to do that?"

Meanwhile, Kendall replied, "Dylan, do you even know how to keep a conversation going? I've just initiated a topic and yet, you've instantly silenced me. How are we supposed to continue with our interaction then?"

The two of them seemed to be flirting with each other earlier as they behaved in a lovey-dovey manner. However, his sudden change in topic ruined the sweet atmosphere, which was hard to come by. At that moment, he was at a loss for words.

She was worried that he would continue to pursue the ten thousand-word reflection letter, so she swiftly clambered out of his arms and stood up. She yawned and turned to him as she spoke, "Dylan, I'll be off to take a nap. Let's go fishing after my nap. You'll be in charge of fishing and I'll grill the fish that you catch. I'm quite good at that."

Back when she was in her hometown, she would occasionally go for fishing with some of her buddies during her spare time. Evidently though, she was the one in charge of grilling the fish they caught during each of their trips. She had never managed to catch anything because the fish seemed to disappear without a trace everytime she attempted to catch them.

"You're a glutton," Dylan scoffed.

"Well, we're all born with a mouth to enjoy food. Dylan, you should take your nap too. Go on." After she had said that, she instantly ran out of the room.

Meanwhile, Dylan kept his eyes on the door of the room that was halfway closed for quite some time before muttering under his breath, "She ran off faster than a rabbit."

After Kendall's effort at placating he, he was no longer upset and decided to head downstairs to be in the same room as his wife. He took a spot next to her while she was in a dazed, sleepy state and took a nap with her.

…

As for Kelly, she drove into the Zorn Mansion and parked her car at the porch. A servant came out of the house to welcome her and after she had gotten out of the car, the servant came over with an umbrella to shield her from the sun.

"Miss Kelly, Miss Yasmine is still taking her afternoon nap. Would you like to wait for her in the living room?" The servant shifted the umbrella in Kelly's direction to keep her shielded from the sun ray.

"Oh, is Yasmine still taking a nap?" Kelly lifted her right hand to take a look at her watch. It's past 3.00PM but Yasmine is still in her nap?!

"Yeah. Miss Yasmine took her nap slightly later today, so she's not up yet."

Kelly considered the situation for a moment before asking, "Is Brian home?"

The servant responded, "Master Brian's not home. Miss Yasmine said something to him before her nap and he left the house after that. He's not back yet."

A disappointed Kelly grunted lightly to indicate that she had heard the response. "Well, I'll wait for Yasmine in the living room then."

Subsequently, the servant held the umbrella over Kelly's head and led her toward the house.

"Miss Kelly, take a seat for a moment and I'll get you a glass of water."

"Alright, thanks." Kelly took a seat on the couch and waited.

Meanwhile, the servant took some fruits and snacks out to serve Kelly along with a glass of warm water. Subsequently, the servant kept Kelly company and waited by her side until Yasmine woke up from her nap.

Hoping time would run faster, Kelly kept glancing at her ladies' watch as she hoped for Yasmine to wake up as soon as possible. Fortunately, Kelly did not have to wait for too long as Yasmine came down the stairs ten minutes later.

"Miss Yasmine, Miss Kelly is here." The servant went forward to greet Yasmine first.

Yasmine affirmed and gestured for the servant to continue with her chores before she took a step toward Kelly.

"Yasmine." Kelly stood up and smiled. "I hope I didn't disrupt your afternoon nap."

"I was already up anyway," Yasmine spoke as she headed to a one-seater couch and took a seat before asking, "It's such a hot day today. Did you come at this time because you had something urgent to tell me? We could have just spoken on the phone too."

"No, it's not anything urgent. It's the weekend and I don't have work, so I came over to keep you company. How are you feeling? Are you still upset?"

As soon as the questions were raised, Yasmine pursed her lips and responded, "I organized a birthday party that should have gone well, but it ended so terribly. Both the guests and the host were not happy when they left, so shouldn't I be angry? If it wasn't for Brian, who helped to clear Jackson's name by blaming it on being drugged, then I would definitely have had a go at him."

She looked at Kelly and accused immediately, "Kelly, I don't think that you're here to keep me company. You must be here to plead for forgiveness on Jackson's behalf. I know that you guys are good friends." While being confidently right, she curled her lips into a sneer after finishing her sentence.

"Jackson's offended me," she added. "By right, it should be your darling younger sister who feels anxious, but why are you the one being anxious and concerned instead? You're actually here on such a hot day to plead for him?"

When Kelly knew her true intentions were exposed, she no longer bothered to hide it. Instead, she spoke frankly, "Yasmine, it's true that I'm here to plead on behalf of the Whittle Family. You do realize that I have a good relationship with Jackson and we're best friends. Our families also have some business collaborations and I'm the one in charge of our collaboration projects. Therefore, it does make sense for me to plead for forgiveness on his behalf. Furthermore, I'm here today because Mrs. Whittle has pleaded for me to help."
