Love Knows No Bounds novel (Kendall and Dylan) novel Chapter 601


"Thank you for the offer, Vice President Parker. I'm President Parker's secretary, so I do whatever he requests. I don't think it's demeaning just because I'm assisting Ms. Parker."

Emma knew Kelly didn't actually appreciate her ability but wanted to drive a wedge between her and Kendall.

Come to think of it, she and Kelly were around the same age and had also been in the business world for years. However, her little schemes were still not enough to fool Emma.

Toddy once told her that many large corporations, including Mendelson Group, wished he could join their company. However, it wasn't because they appreciated his ability but because he was Dylan's right-hand man and was deeply trusted by Dylan. Hence, they wanted to remove him from the picture to knock Dylan down.

Alas, Toddy would lose his value as soon as he left Dylan, who would eventually find himself a new assistant. That was unless he could help his new boss surpass Dylan, but it was rather unlikely.

As Toddy's mentee, Emma knew this very well. Hence, she would never betray her employer, no matter what others promised her. Not only was she clear-headed, but her moral standing forbade her from doing it.

"I believe this is where you get out, Vice President Parker," Emma reminded Kelly, who replied with a sneer, "How loyal of you, Miss Finley. But the loyal ones usually have a miserable ending. They always say you can bear torment with someone but never share happiness together. One day, you will regret your decision to help Kendall, Miss Finley."

With that, she walked out of the elevator with her nose in the air.

Emma, too, sneered after Kelly left the elevator. "You say it as if I'll have a happy ending if I follow you. I never regret any decisions I make!"

She wanted nothing to do with the Parker sisters' feud. She just wanted to do her job, and since Dylan assigned her to help Kendall, she would do everything she could.

When Kendall no longer needed her support, she would retire to Coleman Empire Holdings. Even if she could no longer be Dylan's secretary, she believed he would assign her to the perfect job.

Dylan would never mistreat anyone meritorious, after all.

Emma also believed Kendall wasn't the person Kelly had painted her as. Kelly was only sowing discord, and Emma wouldn't fall for it.



Meanwhile, at the hospital, Dylan and Kendall dressed plainly, put on some makeup to ruin their appearances, and even wore face masks to avoid attention and make it hard for people to recognize them at first glance. They didn't even bring bodyguards with them, and Dylan believed he alone could protect his beloved wife now that he could move freely.

While waiting for the results to come out, the couple sat quietly on the bench and stared at the large monitor on the wall, which would display the patient's name when the results were ready for them.

Kendall came to the hospital to confirm her pregnancy, and it was a result that would come out very quickly.

Sure enough, Kendall's name appeared on the monitor in two shakes.

"I'll do it, honey." Dylan pressed Kendall back down on her seat while he got up and scanned the barcode on the receipt at the machine, which automatically printed out Kendall's results.

Instead of reading the paper at once, Dylan returned to his beloved Kendall, held her hand, and cooed, "Let's go."

"What does it say?" Kendall asked.

"No rush. We can take our time looking at it after we get in the car. I'm sure it's as we expected."

"Okay, then." Kendall beamed.

If Dylan could refrain from looking at it, then so could she. Being the expecting mother, she was certain they were expecting.

After all, she had even dreamed about Baby calling her Mommy. It must be that her baby girl had returned to her.

As the couple walked with their fingers interlaced, they ran into Charlotte at the entrance.

"Mom," Kendall called out to Charlotte, who looked in the direction Kendall's voice came from. She was on the phone right then, and when she made out Kendall and Dylan, she immediately ended the call and strode toward them with a sophisticated purse in her other hand.

"Kendall, Master Dylan, what are you two doing here?"

Did something happen to Dylan's legs again? At that, Charlotte gazed toward Dylan's legs. However, it seemed that he was walking pretty steadily.

"We came to do some tests, Mom. What are you doing here? Are you sick?"

However, Charlotte was more concerned about the couple's issue. "What test? Is it a body checkup?"

However, the Colemans never needed to come to the hospital for their body checkups. They would normally ask a trusted team of physicians to go to them instead.

Then, Charlotte noticed a piece of report-looking paper in Dylan's hand, so she instinctively reached her hand out to him. "Master Dylan, can I please take a look at that paper?"

At that, the couple exchanged a glance; they thought they could've hidden it from Kendall's mother for a while.

Meanwhile, Charlotte's heart skipped a beat when she saw the couple's interaction, and she immediately pulled the report out of Dylan's hands.

At first glance, she widened her eyes. Then, at second glance, she beamed.

"Turns out you're pregnant, Kendall. Goodness, you really scared the hell out of me. I thought something bad had happened to one of you. You're pregnant. This is wonderful!"

While Charlotte was in seventh heaven, Kendall sighed under her breath.

Sometimes, the best-laid plans of mice and men often went awry. She had only let her father in on this so far, and she even made sure he would be quiet about it for a while. But who'd have thought they'd run into her beloved mother at the hospital's entrance?!

"I'm in my early first trimester." Kendall smiled. "Other than being lethargic and constantly craving something sour, I don't feel anything yet. Plus, bloody Mary hasn't visited. I came to check and realized we're expecting."

She didn't reveal this was her second checkup, for Charlotte would instantly know she had deliberately kept Charlotte in the dark.

"Being pregnant is good. It's very good." Charlotte couldn't stop beaming.

She could finally lift the boulder off her shoulders.

Dylan was a decent guy, and now that Kendall was expecting, their life would only get better.

"So, Mom, what brings you to the hospital? Are you sick?" Kendall hadn't heard her parents talking about being unwell at all.

She had been busy lately and hadn't gone back to her parent's home for a while now. But she would call her birth and adopted mother every day, so she knew about their situation.

Charlotte lived pretty eventfully, for she would either play poker, shop around with her friends, or go to a spa. If there really was anything, it'd be Charlotte's worry that Kendall could never be a mother.

"It's nothing big. I just have trouble sleeping through the night lately. I asked Dr. Lee to prescribe me some medication, but it wasn't working, so he recommended me to a specialist. I was just about to call that doctor when I heard you."

Kendall's heart skipped a beat. Be it in this life or the last one, she had never heard Charlotte talking about having trouble sleeping.

Could Kelly have drugged Mom? Knowing Kelly, she wouldn't poison Mom but drug her with something that'll break her mentally. First, Mom will have trouble sleeping, then gradually, her mentality will be affected, and she might even go insane in the end!
