Love Knows No Bounds novel (Kendall and Dylan) novel Chapter 553

Toddy fell silent for a moment before finally saying, "If it's Parker Corporation you want, then go ahead. Since we're neighbors, I'll drive you to work from now on."

At that, Emma took a couple of glances at him before grabbing her bag, fishing a set of car keys out, and setting them on the desk. "President Coleman gave it to me. He said it'll make my journey to work easier and also be convenient for Kendall if she needs to head out."

Having a car was certainly much more convenient now that she was working for Kendall.

In the past, she had many reasons for not purchasing a car, but now, she wouldn't have to care about any of them anymore. She could drive or walk depending on her mood.

Must you plug all my drains, President?! Toddy grumbled at his boss.

"Kendall can drive just fine."

"The president said Kendall loves to race. It's not safe. So, he will never let her drive as long as he lives."

Toddy was rendered speechless.

He genuinely never thought that Kendall had a love for racing. But recalling that she was quite the fighter, it suddenly became reasonable to him that she would love racing.

"Mr. Heller, I still have work to see to. If there's nothing else crucial, can you please see yourself to the door?" Emma shooed him away plainly.

"Didn't you say you want to do the handover? I'll wait here for you to finish your work," announced Toddy while pulling a chair over and sitting across from Emma, who fell silent for a moment before asking, "Can you sit somewhere else and not distract me?"

"I won't make a sound. You do what you have to do while I sit here."

He would sit and watch her silently no matter what, and he would certainly be a distraction to her if she still cared about him.

Yes, he wanted to verify if she really cared anything for him anymore.

Emma glared at him in response. Seeing that he had no intentions of leaving, she just left him be and continued with her work.

Moments later, her phone pinged. It was a text from Roger. 'I'll treat you to supper after work.'

'I'm going to stay past midnight. You still want to wait for me?' Emma smiled as her fingers typed away.

'I will wait for you no matter how late it is,' Roger replied.

Emma fell silent for a moment before replying to him. 'Okay, I'll get my work done ASAP and try to get off work as soon as I can. I won't make you wait too long.'

'That's really sweet of you, Emma. You're such an empathetic girl.'

Emma smiled in response.

Am I really that nice? If I am, then…

At that, she gazed at the man sitting across from her. What are you doing, Finley?! Don't let him distract you!

"Roger?" Toddy asked.

"This is a private matter. I refuse to answer."

Toddy was rendered stumped.

Ever since she declared giving him up, she had lost all patience with him. But he couldn't blame anyone but himself.

After all, it was his doing that led to this day. De son tort demesne, as they said.

Emma, on the other hand, tuned the man out and dove back into her work until finishing at a little past eleven, when she briefly handed her work over to Toddy.

As he was Dylan's general assistant and general secretary, he was well versed in a secretary's job, so handing the job over to him was a breeze.

"I'll be working at Parker Corporation starting tomorrow. Are you not going to wish me good luck there, Mr. Heller?" Emma carried her bag, stood up, and smiled ambiguously at Toddy, who answered grimly, "No. I don't want to wish you good luck at all. Better yet, I wish that you'd have a miserable time there and would want to come back here."

Actually, the transfer was only temporary. Dylan said she could come back whenever she wanted.

"Kendall and I are good friends. Whom can I stay by if I can't even stay by my friend for long?"

At that, Emma walked out from behind her table and waved Toddy goodbye. "I'll be heading off, Mr. Heller."

The man grabbed her arm at once. "It's already very late. I'll send you home. We live in the same area anyway."

"It's fine," she flung his arm away and rejected. "Roger is waiting for me downstairs. He's getting me food before sending me home. But I do appreciate the offer, Mr. Heller. See ya."

With that, she turned and trotted away.

Toddy, on the other hand, chose not to chase after her.

"Roger, Roger, she was still calling him 'Mr. Roger' a few minutes ago, and now she has decided that she's on a first-name basis with him?! If that's not a hard turn, I don't know what is!" he grumbled. "You've been in love with me for so many years. Now that I'm finally looking back, you're walking away. Can't you have waited for a second more?!"

No one will wait for you in the same spot forever.

Dylan's words rang in his ear again, causing him to slump down lifelessly.

He didn't have feelings for her when she loved him, and now that she was walking away, he suddenly began loving her.

His gaze inadvertently landed on the two large vases. She forgot to take the flowers away! Does this mean that she actually has no feelings for Roger?! What the hell am I thinking? We haven't even started yet! Don't you go around thinking you can shove me away, Woods!

At that, he rummaged through Emma's office. After finally finding a pair of scissors, he snipped the two bouquets bare and chucked them into the trash can before dashing out.

I should be able to catch up to the two if I run now. Let's see how they can still have a date with me third wheeling! Nobody can steal my woman away from me! Not even the president's brother-in-law!

Meanwhile, Emma found Roger waiting under the night sky with a bouquet in his hands as soon as she exited the building.

"Mr. Roger." She trotted toward him, and he handed her the bouquet with a smile.

"Thank you." Emma beamed as she accepted the flowers. It sure feels nice to be wooed and cherished.

"Are you tired?"

"Not really. I'm already used to it."

Roger opened the door for her and waited for her to get into the car before closing it.

"Kendall said you'll be working at her company tomorrow?" Roger asked while starting the engine after getting into the car.

"Yeap."

Roger grinned in response. "Then it'll be much easier for me to see you."

Though his brother-in-law was the head of Coleman Empire Holdings, he dared not do anything rash and didn't want anyone to know he was Kendall's brother either, lest she became the topic of gossip.

Parker Corporation, on the other hand… He wasn't as fearful because the company belonged to his sister's birth family.

Besides, Mr. Parker was much more amiable and wouldn't make him feel intimidated like Dylan.

In fact, he dared not even look Dylan in the eye for over a minute as Dylan's gaze was profound and sharp. To him, they were like a dagger that would slice his flesh away, rendering him fearful and painful.

Poor Kendall. Then again, Master Dylan literally babies Kendall to no end. If I end up getting to marry Emma, I will also baby her forever!

Roger beamed before asking, "What would you like to eat?"

"I'm good with anything. I'll do whatever you want."

With that, he probed, "Do you mind the food street?"
