Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 91

Kendall took the box of pastries over while thanking him.

Being such an attentive and considerate man, it was obvious why Blake was Dylan's bodyguard.

"This is under Young Master Dylan's instructions. He was concerned that you might be hungry and wanted you to start with some pastries."

Kendall had already opened the box and popped one of the pastries into her mouth. Hearing Blake's explanation, she right away felt that she was having some exceptionally sweet delicacies!

After only a few minutes of driving, she abruptly asked him to stop the car.

Blake then stopped slowly by the roadside.

She put the exceptionally tasteful pastries down and opened the door. While getting out of the car, she told him, "Wait for me in the car, Blake. I'm going to get some flowers from the florist."

He agreed.

She then trotted to the florist and asked the shopkeeper to wrap a bouquet of roses and baby's breath for her. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Ten minutes later, Kendall exited the florist with the bouquet of flowers in her hand.

Blake wanted to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth.

As the Parker Corporation was just ten minutes away from the Coleman Empire Holdings, they both arrived quickly.

The break hour for Coleman Empire Holdings was 12.00 PM. At the time they arrived, everyone in the company was still in a tense situation.

Kendall was the only exception. She was a new face in Coleman Empire Holdings and with the bouquet of flowers in her hand, she stood out from the crowd.

The president's bodyguard was following her with a solemn expression. Seeing this, the two receptionists did not dare stop them and instead, they stared curiously at the duo entering the lift.

In the meantime, Dylan wheeled himself out.

Ronnie, who was standing by the office's door, immediately went to assist him.

Just a few steps later, they saw Kendall approaching with a wide smile on her face.

She was beautiful to begin with, and her smilingly walking over with a bouquet in her hands made her appear as if she were a fairy from another realm.

Dylan was stupefied and remained staring at her, his gaze on her the whole time. Even his bodyguards couldn't help but cast a few glances her way.

The bouquet of flowers was then handed to him.

"Hubby, this bouquet is for you," she smilingly said.

Hubby!

Though Dylan remained solemn, his eyes shone with warmth. He was clearly in a good mood.

He then let out a light cough and took over the bouquet. At the same time, he looked at her and said, "I said not to call me hubby."

"But I like to! Hubby—"

Kendall intentionally dragged her voice to sound coquettish.

And that softened Dylan's heart.

"Do you like the flowers, hubby?"

Kendall wasn't used to acting like this, and she had no idea how Dylan would react to it either. On her part, she was already experiencing goosebumps.

"Flowers should be given by men to women."

"It can be the other way round too. Dyl—sorry, hubby, you have never received any flowers, right?"

"True," he lowered his head to smell the flowers and answered nonchalantly.

She smiled sweetly at his response. "Then, I will send you flowers every day."

He responded with a smile. "You can only make promises that you intend to keep."

Remembering that she was actually quite forgetful, Kendall awkwardly replied, "I will try my best."

"I don't want that. It's either you truly send them to me every day or none at all."

She was rendered speechless.

"Come on, let's have lunch," Dylan said indifferently as he held the bouquet in his hands.

"Okay."

Then, Kendall went behind him and pushed his wheelchair, whereas all the bodyguards followed behind them.

It was lunchtime and the lobby was bustling with activity. The sight of Dylan being pushed by a beautiful woman while holding flowers caused everyone at Coleman Empire Holdings to stop and stare.

Everyone was also guessing at Kendall's identity.

They went straight out the building and reached the car. Heaving a deep breath, Kendall assisted Dylan to get into the car while saying, "Hubby, everyone was looking at us just now."

"The flowers are too bright to be ignored."

"I suppose the one holding the flowers is eye-catching on his own," she smilingly replied.

She then got into the car after Dylan had taken his seat, while Ronnie went to put the wheelchair away.

"Finally I can taste the food from the Dynasty Hotel!"

"I suspect that you were starved to death in your previous lifetime. That is why you are constantly thinking about food in this life."

Reflexively, Kendall answered, "No, I died from a car accident in my previous life."

That dimmed his gaze. "Don't ever try to drive on your own in the future."

Dylan's heart skipped a beat when he remembered her speeding skills.

"Hubby, I am a competent driver! I got my license at the age of eighteen and have been driving for the past eight years. I have the necessary skills! The previous two occasions were purely coincidental."

"I said no, and I mean it, truly. If you dare to go out on your own, I'll smash your car every time I see it."

"You're so domineering."

"What did you say?"

"I said your attractiveness is unparalleled! My love for you is like the endless flow of water in the river."

Hearing that, Dylan merely pursed his lips and said, "Can't you change your lines?"

"I did. I said your attractiveness is unparalleled; isn't that something new?"

This time, Dylan was the one who was speechless.

"Hubby."

The more she addressed him in this manner, the more she became accustomed to it.

"I said don't call me that."

"Why should I listen to you?"

He was the one who wanted her to address him as her husband in order to show everyone else that she was his, but he remained haughty.

As such, she would satisfy his request.

Dylan extended his hand and lightly pinched her cheek.

With that, Kendall quickly grabbed his arm and leaned entirely on him. Her faint feminine scent drifted into his nose, causing Dylan to have an adrenaline rush.

"Hubby."

"What?"

In a deep tone, he continued, "Stay far away from me."

However, Kendall held him closer. "I don't want to! Are you happy today, hubby?"

He remained silent.

"Well, I'll take your silence as an admission! Since you're happy now, can you just let me off? Don't expect 10,000 words of self-reflection essay from me. I really can't do it. My essays from school were all copied! I really have no idea why Frank came that day. Other than unintentionally bumping into him that day in the hospital, I did nothing else! I deem his haunting me as a sign that he is attracted to my beauty and thus, he wants to court me by using the working relationship with the Parker Corporation as a disguise. Dylan, if he is truly courting me, should I simply reject him or don't give him any express answer?" she continued narcissistically.

She didn't address Dylan as her husband this time.

Dylan was displeased with that, but he did not let it show.

With a cold tone, he responded, "I have strict family rules. If someone dares to be disloyal to this family, I will undoubtedly chase the person out of this house!"

"I was just kidding, Dylan. Don't worry. I will love you forever."

"Can I even trust your love?"

They had only been married for two weeks. Of course, Dylan would not believe her alleged love.

"I said no, and I mean it, truly. If you dare to go out on your own, I'll smash your car every time I see it."
