Chapter 118
"I'm done now, Miss Zorn. Were you waiting here for me?"
Yasmine coldly replied, "Kendall, I don't like to play tricks nor do I like to say things in a roundabout
manner. I'm just going to ask you a few questions. Regarding the matter of Jackson conducting himself
in that sort of manner at my birthday party, was that your doing? Are you that shameless? Are you
really in such need of a man? If so, you could've just told me, and I would've arranged dozens of men
for you instantly."
Kendall had already foreseen that a lot of people would immediately link the matter of Jackson's
incident to her.
This only made her speechless, as she had never left the house ever since she went inside. Besides,
she did not even see Jackson, so how was she supposed to set him up?
Even if she was reborn, she was not an omnipotent being that could foresee everything.
"Miss Zorn, I'm not really in the mood to explain this. Even if I did explain myself, you wouldn't believe it
anyway, since you've already thought that I was the culprit. Thus, I can't really do anything about it.
Coincidentally, I have some video clips sent over by Ronnie, so please have a look." While saying that,
she had already given her phone to Yasmine.
Originally, Yasmine did not want to see it, but after hearing that it was from Ronnie, she took the phone
and watched the video clips.
After watching them, Yasmine had an even worse expression.
"In some ways, I was involved in the incident. He wanted to set me up at first, but I took the wrong cup
and missed the spiked drink. After that, he somehow ended up drinking it. That was why he did those
things to Miss Caddel."
"I could only say that I was lucky."
"That d*mned Jackson Whittle!"
Yasmine did not suspect the authenticity of the video clips.
After this, her brother helped her watch the surveillance footage, only to find out that Kendall had never
left the house.
If Kendall really was the culprit, she would not have left Jackson alone and run to the courtyard by
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtherself.
On top of that, she would not have let Jackson have the chance to molest Krystal.
"Why did Ronnie send you these clips?"
Yasmine asked, with a hint of jealousy.
This was because Ronnie was Dylan's most trusted bodyguard and would accompany him at all times.
Kendall answered without blinking an eye, "I'm serving under Dylan now. Being the intelligent man that
he is, he knew that you would suspect me after the incident. That was why he had Ronnie gather the
evidence and send it to me to prove my innocence, so that I wouldn't besmirch his reputation."
Even though her instincts told her that Kendall was lying, Yasmine could not find anything wrong with
her statement.
After a long pause, Yasmine asked in a probing manner, "Do you know what Master Dylan gifted me?"
Shaking her head, Kendall replied, "How would I know what Dylan gave you?"
She followed up by saying, "You're a lucky woman, Miss Zorn. Amongst the innumerable women in
Orapolis, who has ever received a present from Master Dylan? I've taken care of him for so long now,
yet I haven't received any either. If he presents me with a single blade of grass, I will keep that as a
family heirloom and pray to it every day."
Dylan would shake his head at her blatant lie if he overheard this.
He had given her so many gold accessories by now, but she did not treat them as heirlooms and
prayed to them all day long.
Seeing Kendall so envious filled Yasmine's vanity.
This only made her recall Dylan's personality, as he really did seldom give out presents. Even though
she only received a worthless vase and that he was hinting at her being useless, she still received a
birthday present from him nonetheless. This made her feel proud, as other women have yet to receive
anything from Dylan.
"Alright. There's all for now. You can scamper off," said Yasmine proudly.
Returning to her car first, Yasmine drove off soon.
Watching her car drive away, Kendall said, "You're scampering off faster than I am."
After getting in the car, Kendall called Dylan.
At that moment, Dylan was going through rehabilitation with his brother.
As both his legs grew painful and tired, his pale and sweaty face reflected that.
Yoseph felt his heart pang while watching this.
The sudden phone call from Kendall nearly made Dylan fall, but Yoseph managed to catch him in time.
"You should rest first, Dylan."
"Okay."
Grunting in a deep voice, Dylan answered the call.
"Hubby."
Listening to her sweet voice, Dylan instantly felt relaxed.
While wiping his sweat with the tissue that Yoseph offered him, he asked, "Are you still at the hospital?"
"I'm not. I'm on the way back to my birth home right now. Thanks for sending me the evidence, Dylan. It
was super close, as Yasmine found me just now and wanted to take revenge for what happened. I
would've been in deep trouble if not for those video clips."
Dylan still replied calmly, "So, is it dealt with?"
"Yup. It's done now. What are you doing, Dylan? You sound like you're out of breath."
Even though he was trying hard to adjust his breathing, Kendall still managed to pick something up with
her sharp hearing.
"It's nothing."
"Are you trying to grab something, but nobody is at your side?"
"I said I'm fine. Do you still have anything left to say?"
"I don't."
"Okay then."
"Okay then."
"What are you playing at? Spit it out. If not, hang up."
Dylan kept this tone low in order to hide his true emotions.
"I wanted you to hang up first, Dylan."
Hearing this, Dylan hung up, leaving Kendall speechless. He really did hang up on me without any
extra words.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat she wanted was for him to say, 'I miss you.' I guess that will happen when the sun rises from the
west.
Arriving at the Parkers, Kendall saw that only her parents were in, as Kelly was nowhere to be found.
"Did you come back alone?"
Hearing that his daughter was coming back, Adam, who personally came out to welcome her, had
thought that his son-in-law would come too. So, upon seeing only her daughter show up, he could not
help but to ask her.
Cheekily, Kendall said, "Can't I come back home by myself? Or is it that you don't want to see me
anymore, Dad? Oh, I'm so sad right now. Even though my father says that he loves me, he actually
doesn't want to see me back home."
"You can stop acting now."
Smiling, Adam replied, "I simply asked because I thought Master Dylan would be coming along. You're
such a drama queen."
"As Yoseph was there too, I left the brothers to chat by themselves while I returned alone."
After handing the set of clothes over, Kendall said, "I bought some new clothes for you, Dad. Where's
Mom? I bought a set for her too."
"I've already got so many clothes that I can't wear them all. And here you are, buying another set for
me."
Even though Adam was complaining about this, his face was full of joy as he smiled brightly.
After returning to the Parkers, Kendall had rarely given anything to her parents. On the contrary, it was
Kelly who would often give them presents. Before Kendall got reborn, Adam had thought that even if
they did find their biological daughter, who grew up without being by their side, she would not be as
close to them nor as filial as this foster daughter of theirs.
"Mom's inside."
While walking and taking the clothes out, Adam commented, "Not bad. You actually know my size."
"You're my father. How can I not know?"
Ding dong…
Just as the father and daughter reached the entrance, they heard the doorbell ring.
Turning around at the same time, they looked toward the gate of the villa to find that a couple of luxury
cars had parked there. Upon seeing that, Kendall found the car parked in the front somewhat familiar.
It looked to be Frank's car.
