Chapter 188
Gently, Dylan asked instead, "Don't you want to love me?"
He wouldn't let her be in love with someone else!
He could forget the fact that she was in love with Jackson in the past, but from now on, he was the only one in her world!
"No, I can't help but fall in love with you. You're simply too amazing and nice to me, and I can't get enough of it. At night, when I dream about how nice you are to me, I can even smile in my sleep."
"But I often see you wake up crying from your sleep."
Tongue-tied, she uttered in the end, "You're not a good conversationalist, Master Dylan."
He chuckled. "That's true, I'm not good at conversations because I'm used to giving orders and negotiations."
Business talks were the same as negotiations. In the company, he was the one giving orders, and it was the same at home.
He often kept himself in a position above everyone else, and only his good friends could have a chat with him.
My good friends…
The light in his eyes dimmed. Ever since he was paralyzed, although his friends still treated him the
same as they did before, a sense of low self-esteem started to grow in his heart, which made him not want to hang out with them anymore. Even Toddy said that he hadn't hung out with them for a long time already.
"Kendall, would you like to go out this weekend? Should I take you to our family's stables for horse riding?"
When Kendall heard that, her eyes lit up. "Yes, that's great! I would love to go horse riding."
"Okay, I'll inform the stables so they can prepare, and we'll go there this weekend. We'll invite a few friends to join us for some fun. Who else is your friend besides Ms. Taylor?"
"In Orapolis, there's only her. The others despise me for growing up in the village and don't want to be friends with me. My old friends are far away in the countryside, so it's difficult to ask them out. Furthermore, they're not free anyway because they're busy with their children."
Her friends were married at a younger age, and some of her peers already had two children.
When she was brought home by her biological parents, there was a long gap in her love life.
"Master Dylan, will you look down on Amelia? She's really nice, actually. It's just that her hobby doesn't seem appropriate to you guys."
"I won't have the nerves to look down on my wife's best friend. Ask her along, then. Oh, by the way, have you found her yet?"
"I found her. She said that her phone battery was flat, and she didn't have a single penny on herself. After she left the Mendelson Residence, she took a walk back home but ended up taking the wrong way instead. So, she only managed to get home this morning."
In fact, Kendall didn't believe her story, but she couldn't find any loopholes in it. In fact, she still had her doubts about Frank.
"Did you look for Frank Mandelson?"
After a moment of hesitation, she decided to tell the truth. "Yes, I went to look for him, and he promised to help me look for Amelia. However, not long after I left his place, I received a call from Mrs. Taylor saying that Amelia is home." Then, she quickly added to clarify, "Master Dylan, I only went to look for Frank because I was worried about Amelia. Otherwise, I would stay far away from him. Don't get the wrong idea. I have no feelings for him."
Despite what she said, she was a little afraid of Frank's attitude toward her.
Dylan's face was grim, and it took him a while to suppress his jealousy. "I knew that you'd look for Frank Mandelson because of Ms. Taylor."
"I'm sorry."
"You don't have to apologize to me because you were doing this for your friend. If you're a heartless person, I won't like you at all." Being considerate of her, he continued, "Alright, let's go for lunch. My appointment with Mr. Wilson is at 1.10PM. If we go over after we finish eating, the timing will be just perfect."
"Thank you, Master Dylan." Sincerely, she thanked him. "You're simply too nice to me, making all the arrangements for me so appropriately."
The best decision she had made after coming back to life was riding on Dylan's coattail and marrying him.
Pinching her lips softly, he thought that it felt so soft that he lowered his head and took her lips again, kissing her so deeply that she was almost breathless when he released her.
After that, she forgot the things she wanted to say and pushed him out meekly.
Very naturally, the couple went to the Dynasty Hotel, where Yoseph was waiting for them. Upon seeing them, he went to greet them with a smile.
"Are you very free recently?" Dylan asked his younger brother coldly.
He didn't like it that he kept popping up in front of Kendall. Even though he knew that Yoseph wouldn't have any other ideas, he just didn't like it.
"It's lunch time now, Dylan. No matter how busy I am, I still have to eat, right?"
Actually, he was terrified that Dylan would send him to Africa for business purposes. If his soft skin became coarse from the harsh sun, he wouldn't be able to charm the girls once he was back.
In reply, Dylan merely snorted twice but said nothing.
"Kendall, you seem a little weird." Realizing that she was grinning secretly and her lips were a little
swollen, Yoseph asked in concern, "Are you alright, Kendall?"
Spinning his head around to look at his pretty wife, Dylan happened to catch her looking at Yoseph with a gentle smile. Disgruntled, he told Yoseph off curtly. "What's weird about Kendall? Is she wearing her clothes inside out or what?"
"Dylan, you're so aggressive today, and you keep firing at me."
What did I do wrong? he asked himself.
Snapping back to her senses, Kendall hurriedly said, "I'm fine, Young Master Yoseph. I was just thinking about my future with your brother and couldn't help but smile in happiness."
"Damn. What an unexpected public display of affection!"
Why was I such a nosey parker?
On the other hand, all of Dylan's jealousy evaporated. It turned out that Kendall wasn't smiling at Yoseph, but smiling from her heart when she thought about their happiness in the future. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Staying by his side, she would definitely become the happiest woman in Orapolis!
It was the same old place with the same old food.
No, not the same old food anymore because a lot of the food now were the ones Kendall liked.
Eating together with the couple, Yoseph scanned the food which he didn't like, and he couldn't help but
ask his brother, "Dylan, I remember that you don't like sweet-and-sour food, but why are you ordering food with these flavors recently?"
"You don't like it?"
"My taste is almost the same as yours, and we both don't like sweet-and-sour food."
"I'm ordering these for your sister-in-law. What, now? Do you have opinions about it? If you do, don't sit at this table. There's food and drinks for you, but you're still complaining, picking on this and that. Just order yourself a table full of your favorite food if you want."
Immediately, he lowered his head and ate some boiled potatoes, thinking, It's not good to be asking so many questions!
Suddenly, a lot of food appeared on his plate, and all of it was sweet-and-sour flavored.
"Dylan!" he cried in dismay.
But when Dylan glared at him, he didn't dare to complain anymore and lowered his head again to eat.
After all these years, he was finally eating the food which his elder brother had added to his plate. So yeah, even if it was a bitter melon, he had to imagine it as a sweet melon and finish it!
Not to mention that the food he passed onto his plate was pineapple grilled pork ribs, sweet-and-sour fish, and mango chutney, all of which tasted much better than bitter melon.
"You don't like sweet-and-sour flavored food, Master Dylan?" Kendall asked.
However, from the time she started having meals with him, they had had a lot of sweet-and-sour food, and she even thought they had the same tastes.
