Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 635 Roger’s Decision

Even though no one told Roger how Kelly got hurt, he could guess the gist of it. "Don't try to get what's not yours.

You might end up disappointed and regretting what you did. That's all I have to say. Goodbye." He then left.

Kelly stomped her foot. And he calls himself my brother. I just want to know more about his relationship, and he

thinks I'm up to something. Damn him. Due to anger, she shouted, "Give up, Roger. You're not worthy of Emma.

Toddy's a hundred times better than you are. Even an idiot knows he's better. Give up, you bumpkin. You can never

win."

Roger stopped and turned around to shoot her a glare. Kelly regretted what she said. Roger was still her brother

after all, and that was not a good thing to say, but then she realized she had to stay distant from him so he wouldn't

be dragged into her plan. If her plan were to fail, Dylan would only come after her and wouldn't go after the Woods,

not when they were the ones who raised Kendall.

Roger looked at her in silence for a long time. In the end, he left without saying a word. The next morning, Toddy

and Roger boarded the flight to Imperia with Emma. Before he boarded the flight, Roger called Kendall. "I've given

it some thought, and I've made my decision. Once Emma gets better, I'll go back to my farm. The village is my

home. The city's nice, but it's a bit too rowdy for me. Emma's a great woman. She deserves someone better. Now

that Toddy has sorted his feelings out, he'll be a good boyfriend for her. I don't have to worry anymore."

Kendall was still groggy when Roger called, but she shot up the moment Roger said he was giving up. "Are you sure,

Roger?"

Roger smiled. "I did my best, so I have no regrets. Kelly's right. Emma and I are from two different worlds. Toddy is

a better fit for her. He was the only one who could help her when she needed it. All I did was panic, and I had to

trouble you and Dylan just to help her out."

"I'm giving up, Kendall. I don't want to give her too much pressure and make things difficult for her. If I back off, she

can be with Toddy without regrets. As long as she's happy, I'm fine with it."

Roger wasn't leaving because Emma was sick. He just thought he wasn't a good fit for her. He didn't think there was

a big gap between him and Toddy when Emma was fine, but he realized how big the gap between them was when

trouble came. He might be going to Imperia with her, but Toddy had already arranged everything. Accommodation,

the day to meet the expert… Toddy did everything, and he did nothing.

Toddy knew people in politics, business, and medicine, especially in Imperia. On the other hand, Roger couldn't even

get an appointment with the specialist. It was tough, but he should back out and let Emma date Toddy. Once she got

better, he would tell her about backing out so she could heal up better. He was fine as long as she was happy.

A long silence later, Roger said, "You talk to her after she's better. I hope this is just a false alarm. Tell me when the

results are out."

“We're boarding soon. Don't worry too much, Kendall. Just live your life well. The Colemans are sending their gift list

over in a few days, aren't they? Sorry, I can't be there, but I wish you eternal happiness with Dylan."

"Thank you. And I hope everything goes well on your side, Roger."

…

Rosemi stood in front of her small rental unit, rummaging through her pockets for her keys. She only managed to

find them after some time. She opened the door and announced, "I'm back, Tom."

Tom had gone from hero to zero. Whittle Holdings had gone bankrupt, and they were deep in debt. Their villa, cars,

and antiques were sold off to clear their debts, but still, they had four and a half million dollars left to clear.

Tom was sitting on an old, wooden couch, peering through his glasses. He was searching for jobs online, but since

he angered Dylan and was no longer young, no company would hire him. They did call him for interviews, though

most of them only did so to laugh at him, especially his old business rivals.

Even so, he still went for interview after interview. All he needed was a job to fund their expenses. They couldn't buy

any high-ticket items now, though Tom did send all of the Whittle Family members away. Jackson was not their only

child.

The other children wouldn't have too hard a time surviving. They gave them whatever remained of their wealth and

took on all the debts. That was the only thing they could do. Most of it was to atone for Jackson's sins. If not for him,

none of this would have happened.

"You're back." Tom looked at his wife. "Food's on the table. Reheat it if it's cold." Since he couldn't find a job, he

started learning how to cook.

Rosemi had a better time finding a job. She got herself a housekeeping job. The hours were relatively short, and the

money was enough to keep them afloat. They could also save some money, but there was no way they could clear

their debts.

"I didn't go to work today." Rosemi placed her bag on the coffee table and bent over to see what Tom was doing.

"Stop this, Tom. You know they won't hire you. The interview offers are nothing but a slap in the face."

"Why didn't you go to work today?" Tom asked. "You would lose a lot of money." He felt guilty. All these years, Tom

afforded a great lifestyle for Rosemi, yet now she had to suffer with him.

"I visited Jackson with the lawyer today. I have good news."

"What is it? He's getting discharged and cleared of all charges?"

"Yeah. In your dreams. It's Krystal. She's pregnant and the baby is two months younger than Kelly's. Because of

that, we can bail her out."
