Kendall's Sacrifice

her arm around the other woman's. Rosemi also didn't forget to instruct the workers she brought with

her to carry the dowry in.

After saying that, she smilingly brought Charlotte with her into the house.

Her hold was so strong that Charlotte couldn't get away no matter how many times she tried to.

Now that they were already inside, Rosemi brought Charlotte to sit on the couch like she was the

owner of the house.

"Oh, my dear in-law. Take a look at the dowry after they bring the gifts in. See if you are satisfied with

them. You can tell me if you are not, and I will add more until you are."

"Like I said, Mrs. Whittle, I would like to have my daughter stay by my side for a few more years.

Please don't mention the marriage anymore."

How could Kendall marry Jackson when she already was Dylan's wife?

As anxious as she was angry about the situation, she started complaining to herself about how her

daughter didn't even bother telling her about something as important as this.

However, as if she hadn't heard a word Charlotte said, Rosemi continued instructing her worker to

arrange the gifts in the luxurious hall of the house.

The jewelry was extremely striking that almost hurt to look at.

"These are the keys to a few new cars. This is the key to the villa my boy and your girl will live in after

they get married. The renovation is done and it has been aired out. They can move in straight away

after the wedding. By the way, my dear in-law, let's go shopping together when you are free. We should

get them furniture for their new place so that they don't have to worry about it."

Rosemi spoke like she was a machine gun firing off rounds and rounds of bullets.

Charlotte had opened her mouth many times now, but still she could not get even a word in.

"My dear in-law, these jewelry are my babies. Some of them are new and I am sure your daughter will

like them. Look at how they glow under the light. These are all real gold and silver."

Charlotte had a feeling that Rosemi was taking the chance to show off the Whittles' wealth as well.

"Mrs. Whittle!" Charlotte's fale had turned as white as a paper. She didn't even care that she was being

rude as she loudly exclaimed and cut off Rosemi's words. "I have told you—my daughter will not marry

Jackson. Please take everything back, and never mention wanting them to marry. Kendall still has her

reputation to care about. I can't let your son ruin it."

"Oh my! Whatever could you be talking about, Mrs. Parker? What does Jackson have anything to do

with Kendall's reputation? She is not even the one I am proposing a marriage to."

Her words only further confused Charlotte, who then asked, "Who would you come here if not for

Kendall, Mrs. Whittle? Is it Kelly?"

Charlotte only had two daughters. Rosemi was definitely here for Kelly if Kendall wasn't her pick.

Rosemi smiled when Charlotte had finally figured it out. "Indeed. I am here to propose to Kelly on my

son's behalf. Mrs. Parker, you know how many years Kelly and Jackson have known each other. They

have always had a good relationship with each other. They also suit each other well. Look at how good

they look together. Even though Kelly is not your biological daughter, you have been raising her up like

one. I am sure you want to see her have a happy married life as well. My dear in-law, the Whittles are a

pretty decent family. Don't worry. We will treat her like our own daughter if she marries Jackson."

"Oh, my dear in-law. Take a look at the dowry after they bring the gifts in. See if you are satisfied with

them. You can tell me if you are not, and I will add more until you are."

Charlotte's expression continued to get darker.

It felt like Rosemi was intentionally poking her where it hurt!

Kendall used to be so in love with Jackson that she took care of him and obeyed him like he was some

sort of god.

It got to a point where even Charlotte felt jealous that her own daughter was treating someone else

better than Kendall ever treated Charlotte.

Charlotte still remembered how Rosemi had looked down on Kendall, but she must have come to

propose because Kendall was the biological daughter of the Parker Family.

But now, Kendall had decided she was marrying Dylan instead of Jackson.

Charlotte had made sure to reject the proposal then. And yet, Rosemi had brought the dowry over and

this time, it was to propose to Kelly instead. This was none other than a slap in the face for the Parkers!

Charlotte willed herself to stay calm as she asked in return, "Is this your or Jackson's doing? Why isn't

Jackson here today?"

"What difference does it make? We are proposing to one of yours, anyway," Rosemi answered, a hint

of guilt laced within her words.

She had taken it upon herself to propose without her husband or son's knowledge.

In fact, she was still bitter about how a village girl like Kendall had rejected her son.

She couldn't help but hold a grudge about how Kendall was blowing her own trumpet by thinking that

Jackson was in love with her.

As for Rosemi intentionally bringing over a generous dowry and proposing to Kelly after Charlotte had

rejected the previous proposal? All this was an act orchestrated by Rosemi to make Charlotte angry.

"Mrs. Whittle, I don't care if this is you or your son's idea. I have told you clearly that I won't let Kelly

marry your son. Please go. Also, take all your gifts away with you. They are taking up a lot of space in

my house."

There was no way Charlotte would allow Kelly and Jackson to be together after she found out that they

were in love with each other.

Since Kelly had it in her to cheat Kendall, Charlotte wasn't going to let it go and she was going to stop

Kelly from being together with the man she loved. Of course, Charlotte wouldn't have minded if Kelly

ended up becoming Jackson's mistress.

No matter what, she wouldn't allow Kelly to marry Jackson!

"My dear in-law, why don't you give your husband and daughter a heads-up, and ask for Kelly's opinion

on this? Who knows? She just might accept it. You shouldn't break up a couple who is meant to be

together. You will get struck by lightning as punishment, you know?"
