Chapter 77

"I can't talk for long, Jackson. I am outside. I am going to hang up now." Kelly looked left and right

cautiously, worried that someone might overhear her conversation with Jackson. "You can tell me if you

ever need help from the Parker Corporation. My words do carry weight at the company."

After all, she was still the successor of the Parker Corporation.

As for Kendall…

Even if she were to be a part of the company, Kelly would never give her the chance to grow her

influence as long as Kelly was still around.

Jackson gave her his thanks and after waiting for Kelly to hang up the call, he took a few deep breaths.

He was planning to call his mother at first, but finally decided against it. He didn't immediately call

Kendall to explain the situation to her either.

She had changed so quickly that he was at a loss. He even started suspecting that she had turned into

a completely different person altogether.

He was afraid that she wouldn't pick up his call if he called her.

After debating about it, he decided that he should first save the Whittle Holdings from the crisis it was

in, and only think of a way to appease her later.

Kendall received a call from her best friend, Amelia Taylor, right when the former had just got home.

"Kendall, I am back! I just got out of the plane. Come pick me up. I bought you tons of good food and

fun stuff!"

Amelia had gone on a trip and with every new place that she went, she made sure she bought local

specialties for her glutton of a friend.

"Finally gracing the hometown with your presence, huh?" Kendall sarcastically ranted. "You heartless

woman! You didn't even tell me before you went on a vacation. I would have immediately followed you

along if you had informed me."

Upon hearing that, Amelia let out a giggle and teased her friend, "Am I the heartless one or are you?

You have given your whole heart to Jackson. The only person you would go on a trip with is him. You

wouldn't have gone with me. You little brat, you seem to value your love life over our friendship! That

Jackson guy must have drugged you or something for you to go crazy over him like this."

It was probably due to the fact that Amelia was viewing the whole relationship objectively as a third

party that she always had a feeling that Jackson wasn't true to Kendall. Amelia had privately brought

this up to Kendall before, but Kendall had been dismissive of her warning then.

"I have snapped out of it. Wait for me at the airport. I will be there in a jiffy."

"Fine," Amelia said with a smile, "I will be waiting for you here. Drive carefully, okay? No speeding. I am

not in a rush anyway. I can have something to eat while I wait for you."

"Alright, Rest assured. I have godly driving skills."

Amelia only replied to her self-praise with silence.

Just as Kendall said, her driving skills were godly indeed. Sitting in her car during an emergency felt

like it was a ride on a plane instead. It was an experience frightening enough to make one's heart jump

out of their chest.

After the call with her best friend, Kendall completely forgot about the warning Dylan had given her as

she went into the villa and took the car keys from Charlotte. She then drove her mother's BMW and

happily headed to the airport to pick Amelia up.

Right when Kendall left the building, she came across Kelly, who happened to be walking back.

"Where are you going, Kendall?"

"Mind your own business."

That was all Kendall said in reply before she stepped on the gas. The vehicle was out of view within a

split second, leaving Kelly behind by herself.

There were many intersections at the roads around the villa where cars would always appear out of

nowhere.

Driving fast on the roads here could easily result in an accident.

So was the case with Kendall.

Seeing that there was no other car ahead of her while she was on the road, she started speeding up,

prompted by the thrill of driving fast cars.

Even when she reached a curve, all she did was slightly decrease her speed.

She definitely did not expect to then come head-to head with not one, but a motorcade when she

turned into the corner. Her immediately stepping on her brakes did nothing to stop the car as she had

been driving at a high speed.

Panicked, she quickly turned the steering wheel. Even though she managed to evade the cars that

came from the opposite direction, she had in turn knocked her mother's car against an afforestation

tree by the side of the road.There was a loud noise when the car met the tree.

Bang!

Oh no! I wrecked Mommy's car!

After the initial shock, she hurriedly pushed open the car door and got out to check the severity of the

car damage.

The incoming cars had come to a stop as well.

Ronnie, who was in one of the cars, turned his head and alerted Dylan, "It's Young Mistress Kendall,

Young Master Dylan."

Dylan had actually recognized her when she panickedly avoided the cars and ended up hitting the tree.

He had made it clear that she wasn't allowed to drive by herself anymore. She was supposed to inform

Amos if she wanted to go anywhere, and Amos would arrange a ride for her.

Alas, his words had gone in one ear and out the other.

Not only did she seem to make it a point to drive whenever she returned to the Parker Residence, she

also made sure to drive really fast every time!

"I am getting out of the car," Dylan hissed, in which Ronnie immediately acted upon.

He was also praying for Kendall at the same time.

He remembered how Dylan had coincidentally seen Kendall speeding last time. Dylan had instructed

his men to remove the tyres of her car then. She was still speeding now like she used to, and not only

that, she had almost hit one of their cars…

Young Mistress Kendall probably won't have the chance to lay her hands on another steering wheel

after this! Ronnie sighed to himself.

The bumper of Charlotte's BMW had been terribly damaged. Looking at the mess she had made,

Kendall couldn't help but feel mortified.

After the call with her best friend, Kendall completely forgot about the warning Dylan had given her as

she went into the villa and took the car keys from Charlotte. She then drove her mother's BMW and

happily headed to the airport to pick Amelia up.

Who would have expected the cars to suddenly appear from the opposite direction?!

She continued to look at the bumper in a daze for one whole minute before she finally turned her head

toward the row of cars.

Sh*t! It's Dylan! Her face swiftly turned pale when she recognized him. She couldn't understand how

her luck could be so rotten that he always caught her when she was speeding. He had gotten rid of her

wheels the last time she sped, even though nothing had happened. But now that she had ended up in

an accident… Will he dismantle my whole car this time?

As she looked at Dylan being escorted toward her by Ronnie, she began to brainstorm for a way she

could get herself out of this 'crisis'.

"Haha! What a coincidence, Dylan!" she laughed out loud, and even started waving like she was giving

him a casual greeting.

Dylan and his bodyguards were all rendered speechless then.

"Why are you here, Dylan? Did you come for me? Look! Aren't I super gentle and considerate to you? I

came halfway to welcome you after I found out that you would be coming for me."

Kendall was about two meters from Dylan when he raised his hand, motioning for Ronnie to stop.

He then continued to look at his wife putting up an act as he sat in his wheelchair, his gaze cold.

"Um… I didn't have time to tell Mr. Miller to prepare a ride for me because of an emergency situation.

And since I was at the Parker Residence and Mr. Miller is at the Coleman Mansion, I figured it would be

too late by the time he got here. That was why I borrowed my mother's car…" The more she spoke, the

smaller her voice got from embarrassment.

Color had rushed into her cheeks, making her originally pale face red.

Dylan suddenly spoke up then. "Are you done talking?"

"I am," she gulped while nodding.

"Why are you blushing?"

Hearing that, Kendall brought her hand up to rub on her cheeks, and she bashfully babbled, "Um… It is

because of the hot weather! Right. It is a hot day today. It is so warm my face is flushed."

Dylan's face, on the other hand, went black.

Her talent for spewing nonsense really knocked his socks off!

"Come here!" he coldly demanded, instantly giving her goosebumps all over.

Is he going to knock me on my head again?

Knowing that admitting to it was the best thing she could do now, Kendall quickly lowered her head and

wailed, "I know that it is my fault, Dylan. I promise to never drive fast! C-Can you please not be mad at

me anymore?"

There wasn't a trace of emotion on Dylan's face, but his already-cold voice only went up another notch.

"Kendall Parker, you better come here right this instant. Don't make me repeat myself again!"

She started to panic as she looked at him gingerly, and she shuffled toward him slowly, as if she had

turned into a snail.
