Love Knows No Bounds novel (Kendall and Dylan) novel Chapter 440

Alice couldn't say anything because it was her grandmother, but deep down inside, she disagreed with her grandmother's decision.

It was something only an ungrateful person would do.

Her grandmother had used Kendall as a means of saving Dylan, but now that Dylan was saved, her grandmother wanted to toss Kendall aside.

That's too ungrateful of her.

"Don't be afraid, Kendall. We're all on your side."

The only thing Alice could do was plead on Kendall's behalf.

Kendall had a bad feeling about this. Tilly was making too much of a scene. There was no way it was going to end well. Frank's malicious scheme worked.

That *sshole! Kendall started cursing Frank out internally. If Frank had been in front of her right now, she would've smashed him to a pulp.

"I'll accept whatever the outcome is." Kendall was mentally prepared for this. She calmed down all of a sudden and no longer showed any signs of anxiety.

She followed Alice and Amos into the house.

"Kendall."

She ran into her parents and Kelly at the door.

Kelly had been discharged from the hospital yesterday. She didn't come along because she was worried about Kendall⁠—she came to enjoy the show.

After all, Kelly had to claim some of the credit for setting the stage for what was about to happen today. Kendall had witnessed the scandal between Kelly and Jackson, so now, it was Kelly's turn to watch her suffer.

Adam and Charlotte didn't want to let Kelly come with them, but she drove over herself, so the couple couldn't do anything about it. This adopted daughter of theirs showed less and less respect for them now.

"Mom, Dad, why are you… Did Old Madam Coleman tell you guys to come here?"

All of Kendall's composure instantly vanished when she saw her parents here. It dawned on her that Tilly was going to use this as an excuse to get her away from Dylan since Tilly had even gone so far as to invite her parents over.

"Old Madam Coleman asked us to come here and take you home."

Charlotte took her daughter by the hand with a pained expression on her face. "I know why she did that. Kendall, you and Frank—"

"Mom, I have nothing to do with him. If he likes me, it's his business, but I don't have any feelings for him whatsoever."

"I finally understand why Frank didn't blow up at you when you stomped on his foot at Yasmine's birthday party. He must've had his eyes on you back then, too, and later on, he even took the initiative to collaborate with our company. He must've tried to use the deal as a means of getting close to you."

Kelly jumped in mockingly, "What an amazing woman you are, Kendall. Both Master Dylan and Frank are some of the most distinguished young men in Orapolis, but they've both fallen head over heels for you. No wonder you gave up on Jackson. They're all way better than him."

"Kelly, keep quiet if you have nothing good to say!" Adam snapped quietly.

Kelly pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Kendall, your mother and I believe you, but… Let's go in first. If it can't be helped, then we'll take you home with us! No matter how weak I am, I can still afford to take care of my daughter!"

Adam had a steely look in his eyes. He and Charlotte would forever be Kendall's safety net.

If Old Madam Coleman wants to chase Kendall out of the family, then we'll take her home with us! We won't plead for the Colemans to keep her, and we won't let her stay with them to continue being bullied like this, either!

He was more than willing to take care of Kendall for the rest of her life.

Kendall bit her lip. She was touched by the protectiveness her father showed when he declared that he would always be there for her.

There were only two people who were sitting down inside the house.

One was Dylan, and the other was Tilly.

Tilly tossed the photos she received yesterday on the table. Dylan didn't even bother looking at them.

He squashed the news that had gone viral last night, but it popped up again today. He had gotten his men to look into it. Frank and Benjamin were the main ones behind it, but a lot of people were secretly backing them up.

It went without saying that most people would jump at the chance of doing something that would hurt Dylan.

Tilly was the reason why something seemingly inconsequential would turn into such a huge spectacle. Kendall no longer had any value to her, and she had decided to toss Kendall aside.

Dylan had long since figured out that his grandmother's silence and supposed acceptance of Kendall was all an act. She was only waiting for the right opportunity and a plausible excuse to chase Kendall away.

The rest of the family were all standing around them with their hearts in their throats.

Tilly and Dylan stared at each other. Neither one of them intended to back down.

It was Kendall's arrival that broke the stalemate.

Tilly got straight to the point. "Kendall, I know what's going on between you and Frank. The Colemans don't need a granddaughter-in-law who isn't loyal to her husband. Leave right this instant. Move out of the house right now and wait until we notify you to start the divorce proceedings."

She then turned to Adam and Charlotte and said, "Mr. and Mrs. Parker, please take your daughter home with you and teach her how to be a respectable young woman. Perhaps she might be able to marry someone again later on. Oh. You won't have to wait long. I'm sure Frank is waiting to marry her as we speak. I can scarcely believe that this daughter of yours learned how to be a seductress while growing up in the countryside. Look at her, twirling both my grandson and Frank around her fingers and making the two men fight over her."

"Grandma—"

"Don't call me Grandma." Tilly cut Kendall off at once.

"Old Madam Coleman, I am not involved with Frank in any way. Ever since I married Dylan, I have not betrayed him in any way. How can you say I'm a cheater without even getting to the bottom of things first? That's too unfair. I don't care if you believe me or not. I have never tried to seduce Frank, and ever since I married Dylan, he has been the only man I cared about. You want me to get a divorce with Dylan, but I refuse unless Dylan is the one who wants to divorce me."

Tilly slammed her hand on the table.

"Grandma."

Dylan stood up and walked over to Kendall. He wrapped his arm around her waist as he announced coldly, "I've already explained this to you last night, but I can't do anything if you choose not to believe me. I'm laying the cards on the table right now. Kendall is my wife. She will be my wife for the rest of our lives. Grandma, if you insist on chasing her away from me, then please chase me out as well⁠—"

"Dylan!"

"Dylan Coleman!"

Tilly slammed her hand against the table again and shouted, "What kind of spell did this woman put you under? It's clear that she's involved with Frank and tried to plot against you. At first, she acted as if she would rather die than marry you, but then she agreed to the marriage all of a sudden! Isn't it suspicious that her attitude took a 180-degree turn all of a sudden?

"I kept a clear head as I observed from the sidelines all this time and waited until she showed her true colors. Well, it's out now. She's clearly Frank's spy. He let her get close to you to poison your mind. Look at what you've been doing ever since you married her. You've gotten into fights with your mother and me. How many of the family rules have you broken for her sake? She'll be getting you to do even more things for her in the future, and her ultimate goal will be to steal Coleman Empire Holdings!"

Kendall had gone pale with fury. She fired back icily, "Old Madam Coleman, since you're accusing me of all these heinous things, it means you have proof, right? What's the next move in this dastardly plan of mine and Frank's? How many times have I helped Frank plot against Dylan?"
