Frank said, "No one told me anything. However, I… I'm sorry, it's just a misunderstanding. Mr. Woods, I'm sorry to have bothered you."
Frank had asked his men to investigate Kendall. He knew she had a relationship in college but broke up after less than half a year. After that, she remained single until she returned to the Parker Family and fell in love with Jackson at first sight.
Kendall was popular for a while as several families wanted to marry the Parker Family. Among them was Frank's nemesis, Dylan Coleman.
Frank knew Dylan very well. The latter would never take the initiative to marry the Parker Family; it must be the idea of Tilly.
In short, the result of the investigation was that Kendall did not become pregnant out of wedlock.
Frank turned around and left.
One bodyguard came to Nelson and took a stack of cash to put it by the bedside. Then, he said in a deep voice, "This is my master's little token."
Before Sally could say anything, the bodyguard left hurriedly with Frank and disappeared from the ward.
"Hey! Come back and explain things properly! What the heck?!"
Nelson took the stack and was about to chase after Frank.
"Nell, don't go after him."
Kendall came out of the toilet and stopped her brother, who was just about to chase Frank.
"He is the head of the Mendelson Family, Frank Mendelson. He is domineering and won't tolerate anyone who resists him."
As expected of Dylan's nemesis. They have the same personality and ability.
The way they do things is too similar. The world isn't big enough for the two of them, so they become nemesis. Of course, Dylan is the winner, and Frank is always the Number Two.
"Kendall, didn't you hear him when you were in the toilet? Even if he's the head of the Mendelson Family, he can't defame you! You did not even have a proper boyfriend before. How dare he ask if you were pregnant?!"
Nelson threw the money on the table. "No amount of money can forgive him for defaming you!"
Seeing that his sister was not angry, Nelson became nervous and asked cautiously, "Kendall, can you tell me if you were really… pregnant before? Is it something to do with the head of the Mendelson Family?"
After Frank left, Nelson finally understood that Frank was not going to ask for an apology; the man only wanted to know the whereabouts of Kendall's baby.
Kendall was at a loss for words. After a moment, she responded drily, "No, of course not. If I have a child, I will definitely let you know."
Nelson carefully scanned Kendall and felt she was not lying, so he was relieved.
"That's great."
At that point, there came another knock on the door.
Kendall felt nervous again, and she was worried that it was Frank returning.
She did not know Frank, just like she did not know Dylan too.
The only thing she knew about the two young presidents was that they were as sly as foxes.
They could kill without saying a word.
Presently, Nelson went to open the door and Kendall was ready to slip into the toilet.
However, the one standing at the door was one of Dylan's personal bodyguards, Ronnie Cutler.
Ronnie carried a lot of supplements and a fruit basket.
"Hello, may I ask who you are looking for?" Nelson scanned Ronnie and asked suspiciously.
Ronnie looked at Kendall instead.
Seeing this, Kendall stood up and explained, "Nell, he is… my friend. He knows Mom had an accident, so he is here to visit her."
Nelson did not really believe her.
Meanwhile, Ronnie gave the gifts to Nelson.
Then, the former took out a phone and opened a file. Then, he let Kendall look at the screen.
Kendall looked at it. It was the heroic picture of her throwing Frank's bodyguard on the floor.
Why does Ronnie have the picture of me attacking the bodyguard?
Kendall quickly looked behind Ronnie but couldn't find Dylan.
Ronnie retracted his hand and said coldly, "Young Master Dylan wants an explanation from you."
After that, Ronnie nodded to Nelson, turned around, and strode away.
Kendall's expression changed slightly.
When did Dylan come to the hospital?
What an elusive man!
The worst thing is, he didn't help me out when I was in trouble with the bodyguards but took my photograph instead! Now, he wants an explanation from me?
How should I explain things?
Is it about my relationship with Frank?
At that point, Kendall was starting to have a headache.
I should have read my daily horoscope before coming out.
Now, I have offended Frank and also caused a misunderstanding with Dylan.
On the other hand, Sally and Nelson understood the complicated situation. They decided to not ask Kendall about it if she didn't feel like talking.
Kendall was the birth daughter of the prestigious Parker Family. That meant she entered that high-class society and naturally interacted with the wealthy bigwigs in Orapolis. The world she was in was different from theirs.
Even if they got the answer, they wouldn't be able to understand, let alone help Kendall out.
That whole day, Kendall took care of her adoptive mother in the hospital.
She reluctantly left in the evening when her adoptive mother drove her away.
Nelson then took her downstairs.
"Kendall, don't be mad at Mom for driving you away. It's for your own good. You're back on your birth parents' side, so it's inappropriate to come back to us. Your parents will be jealous and think you don't like them."
They would blame the Woods Family for not letting Kendall go too.
After returning to the Parker Family, the lady of the Parker Family went to the Woods Family's house in person. She told the parents to lessen contact with Kendall, so she could spend time with her birth daughter.
That was why they would not contact Kendall unless she came to them in the past year.
"Nelson, don't worry about it as my birth mother is an understanding lady. Tell Mom that she and my real mom are my mothers. I'm the luckiest human in the world as I have two moms and two dads. They all love me."
In the past life, Kendall liked her adoptive parents more.
After all, she was raised by the Woods Family until she was twenty-five, and they had a close relationship.
She would not pick a favorite in this life, and love both her adoptive mom and birth mom equally. They both were her mothers, and she would repay them.
"Alright, I'll tell her."
After taking Kendall out of the inpatient department, Nelson asked, "Did you take a taxi here or drive by yourself?"
"My driver brought me here."
Dylan did not like how Kendall raced, so he unloaded all the tires of her BMW and banned her from driving ever again.
Now, she could only ask Amos to take her whenever she wanted to go.
This was a luxurious treatment, but Kendall hated it.
She liked to control the steering wheel herself and choose whether she wanted to drive rashly or at a snail's pace.
"Kendall."
Nelson stopped at that point. He then looked at her and said gently, "You can tell me about your difficulties. Although I'm not powerful, I have brute strength. I will help to avenge you if someone bullies you."
Kendall smiled and said, "Nell, no one can bully me if I put my mind to it."
I could even bring down the bodyguards.
I got bullied hard by Jackson in my past life because I loved him.
"Nell, you should go back to Mom now. I will come back tomorrow to take over with you."
Nelson hummed and told Kendall a few kind words, then he turned around and returned.
Kendall turned around only after she couldn't see her brother anymore. When she was about to leave, she saw Ronnie slowly pushing Dylan toward her.
