Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 111

"Hubby, tell me. Do you have my copy with you?"

"Did you see that it's with me?"

"Nope. But if it isn't with you, did it disappear on its own? I guess it has cheated on me. What should I do?"

"Pfft!" Someone burst into laughter.

Kendall and Dylan looked at each other. Since it wasn't them, they shifted their gaze to the front. Ronnie pursed his lips as he tried to hold back his laughter as he reminded the driver, "Mr. Larson, focus on the road."

It turned out that it was the driver who burst into laughter.

"My apologies, Master Dylan. I was trying to hold it back." Despite his endeavor to smother the laughter, he failed.

Dylan replied indifferently, "Nevermind."

It was a normal reaction, considering that being shameless could turn a scene into a comedy.

The driver and Ronnie didn't dare to respond to his words, but that wasn't the case for Kendall. "Hubby, are you trying to say that I'm shameless?"

"Kendall Parker, aren't you a shameless woman?"

"Well, I do feel shame, but not at such times."

The ever smart man was at a loss for words upon hearing such an absurdity. Feeling helpless, he simply pressed her head on his chest before wrapping his arms firmly around her, as if he was going to crush her into his body.

Bossy, but I like it!

After a while, the woman in his embrace became silent. His arms around her became loose while he looked at Kendall, who was fast asleep on him. Though he was speechless, he neither pushed her away nor woke her up. He just let her be instead. It was already late at night, so it was plausible for her to feel drowsy. Yet, he wasn't feeling sleepy in the slightest because he was actually reining back the sizzling fire in him.

In fact, Kendall was in a difficult position because of Yasmine while he was dealing with Jackson. He wasn't there, so he couldn't protect her, and Frank seized the chance to help her.

If only he could walk, he would've rushed to her side and protected her from being bullied.

"Kendall," Dylan whispered into her ear. "I will make sure to stand on my feet in the future."

It was for his and her sake.

Although Dylan hoped Kendall could become strong enough through such predicaments, he had promised his mother-in-law that he would protect her for eternity as her husband.

…

Jackson was admitted to a general hospital in Orapolis because he had drunk the alcohol he had personally prepared. Because of that, he failed to control himself and ended up hovering over Krystal before Kelly could even arrive on time. Though things did not escalate to the worst, it was undeniable that it had defamed Krystal's name and hence the bad blood between the two families.

He was sent to the hospital after being knocked out. Other than Rosemi, Brian and Kelly came along too. After all, it happened at the Zorns' place, so Brian had to bear the responsibilities as the homeowner. Since it was evident that it was a scheme, he planned to get to the bottom of it once Jackson regained his consciousness.

While Jackson was still asleep, Rosemi couldn't stop sobbing as she sat next to the bed. The sight of her son's swollen face made her heart throb in pain. Which peasant dares to scheme against Jackson with such lowly means? No one can step into our house that easily!

As there was nothing she could help with, Kelly left the room in silence. She followed all the way here because she was Jackson's friend, in addition to the cooperation between their families' businesses.

"Kelly." Brian trailed along behind her until they reached the end of the corridor.

"Luck isn't on Jackson's side lately." She sighed. "He's having it rough these days. Not only was he bitten by dogs and had his arm broken, he got into trouble again tonight."

Her mind was in shambles because Jackson could've ravished her if it weren't for Brian thwarting her. However, she and Jackson shared mutual feelings, so she would definitely devote herself to him in the end. Still, it was the Zorn Mansion, and one of the guests might have found out since it was an open area. She dared not think further about it.

Brian said, "Not everyone has it easy in their lives. Bad luck just happens."

Though he was comforting her, he was the happiest person to see Jackson in trouble. He liked Kelly and was aware that she loved Jackson. After tonight's incident, she definitely wouldn't go out with Jackson anymore. Moreover, there was Kendall involved between them.

"Maybe." Kelly turned toward him and said gently, "Brian, it's already so late. You should return home. I'll accompany Auntie. I will ask Jackson in your place when he wakes up tomorrow."

"You're staying?" Jealousy seeped into his voice. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

"Yeah, I think I should keep Mrs. Whittle company."

Brian grabbed her shoulders with a solemn face. "Kelly, don't you know my feelings? Am I that bad compared to Jackson? He is going to marry your younger sister, yet you're so hung up on him!"

Her cheeks reddened as she freed herself from his grasp. "Brian, my mind is in a mess right now. Let's not talk about this, okay? Jackson… He's just a friend."

"Really? Kelly, you can deceive anyone, but not me. I know you still love him, but Kendall likes him too. Are you reining back your feelings due to the guilt of swiping everything from Kendall? That's why you're pushing him to be with Kendall? Though I'm happy to see that, I don't wanna see you sad after

all the sacrifice. It wasn't your fault to be Miss Parker in her stead for 25 years. So, don't blame yourself for that, Kelly."

Kelly sighed. "Brian, I know that I'm not the one at fault, but it's true that I'm not one of the Parkers. Everything I have right now belongs to Kendall. The guilt is killing me, so I wish she could have a better life than I do, and I'm willing to give her anything she wants."

Brian scowled disapprovingly. "And is that country bumpkin worth it? It's already wrong for you to call such an ignorant peasant your sister. For the past 25 years, you have been the one giving your parents the best in her absence. It's reasonable for her to be grateful to you instead of thinking that you have hogged everything from her."
