Chapter 45


    Just as Jackson was about to leave with the two sets of jewelry, Rosemi called out to him.


    "What is it, Mom?"


    "Jackson." Rosemi walked over to him and whispered into his ear, "When you take Kendall out to meet


    your clientter, get her drunk and sleep with her. That way, she won''t be able to leave you."


    Jackson''s mouth twitched.


    "Mom," Jackson spoke in a low voice. "Do you think I''d need to resort to such underhanded tactics?"


    Rosemi rolled her eyes at him. "It''s the best way to get what you want, so who cares if it''s underhanded


    or not? I thought that it was confirmed that the Parkers would ept our marriage proposal since


    Kendall is madly in love with you and is dying to marry you, but look how it turned out instead. I don''t


    trust what Mrs. Parker said. Something must have happened."


    "Jackson, if you''re determined to marry Kendall, then do as I say. If not, then just pretend I didn''t say


    anything."


    Jackson fell silent.


    He did not like Kendall at all. On the contrary, he despised her. The only reason why he wanted to


    marry her was so that he could plot with Kelly and use Kendall to pocket the entire Parker Family


    fortune.


    And yet, he was upset when Kendall''s attitude toward him changed. He could not stand the way she


    distanced herself from him.


    "I''ll think about it, Mom."


    "What''s there to think about, Jackson? You need to be firm on this. Don''t think about it anymore and


    just do as I say. Go and look for Kendall now, and tell her that you want her to meet a client with you.


    She''ll definitely go with you."


    "Alright, Mom, I''ll do as you say."


    Jackson decided to give his mother''s suggestion a go.


    Rosemi smiled and patted her son on the back. "Go on. You don''t need toe back home tonight.


    Just spend the night with Kendall at a hotel."


    "I hope you''ll seed, Jackson."


    Jackson left the house with the jewelry under his mother''s watchful eyes.


    He still had some time before his meeting with his client, so he followed his mother''s instructions and


    went over to Coleman Mansion to look for Kendall. He wanted to convince her to follow him to meet his


    client.


    On his way there, he gave Kelly a call to tell her about his n.


    "Jackson, what did you say?"


    Kelly was still doing overtime at the office.


    When she heard Jackson''s n, she huffed and threw her pen on the floor before leaping to her feet.


    Her face was contorted in anger and disbelief.


    Jackson was aware that his actions would be a form of betrayal toward Kelly, so he tried to appease


    her. "Kelly, I''m doing this for our sake. You know better than I do that Kendall has changed. Both your


    mother and Kendall rejected my mother''s marriage offer. I have to do this to marry her."


    "Jackson, go on, sleep with her. I dare you!"


    Kellyshed out in anger. "You''re mine! You promised me that you''d never sleep with Kendall!"


    "Kelly, I''m only doing this because I have no other option. If you can think of any other options, I''m all


    ears." Jackson was beginning to regret being honest with Kelly about this.


    Kelly might seem like an easygoing person on the surface, but she was actually a very domineering


    person.


    She had long considered him to be hers.


    The Parkers only had one child, and before Kendall came back, the Parkers showered Kelly with all


    their affection. Their indulgent love made Kelly into the domineering person that she was today. In the


    past, no matter how domineering she was, she had no fear at all, but now she was no longer the


    Parker Family''s real daughter, so could she still be this domineering?


    "You can ask Kendall to apany you tonight and get her drunk as well, but you''re not allowed to


    touch her. We''ll let someone else sleep with her, and you can show up when it''s over. When she wakes


    up, let her see youing out of the bathroom, and it''ll be enough. You don''t need to bother with


    anything else. She''ll naturally assume that she slept with you."


    Kelly asked, "Jackson, what do you think about my idea?"


    This way, Jackson would not need to sleep with Kendall, but the n would still seed.


    Jackson thought it was a pretty good idea, so he chuckled and said, "Kelly, you''re so smart. We''ll do


    just as you say. I told my client to meet me at Hotel Whittle, so it''ll be convenient for me to arrange


    everything."


    "You''re not allowed to sleep with her, or else, I''ll make you pay," Kelly warned him once more.


    "Kelly, now that we have a better idea, I''m definitely not going to do anything to betray you. Don''t worry.


    I''m yours, and I''ll always be yours," Jackson promised. "Just wait for my good news."


    "I''ll be done soon, and when I''m done, I''ll go over to Hotel Whittle and wait for you. I won''t be able to be


    at ease until I see you."


    Jacksonughed and said adoringly, "Okay, you can keep an eye on us in secret."


    Kelly was domineering, but he liked that about her because it meant that she loved him a lot.


    Jackson''s pride swelled.


    Even an aplished woman like Kelly was so deeply in love with him, so he was absolutely certain


    that he could handle a country bumpkin like Kendall!

    When Kendall exited the bathroom after washing her hair, she saw Dn sitting on her bed. He had


    picked up the framed photo on her bedside table and was studying it closely. It was a picture of her with


    her adopted family.


    When she left her adopted parents'' house, her real mother refused to let her take anything with her,


    saying that they would buy new ones instead. In the end, she only brought this picture with her.


    "Dn, why aren''t you resting?"


    Dn set the frame back down in its ce and looked up at her. When he saw her soaking strands of


    hair, he frowned and said, "Don''t you know how to dry your hair with a towel?"


    "It''s fine. I''ll just use a hairdryer and it''ll dry out in no time."


    Kendall went over to the hairdryer.


    She nced at Dn and asked tentatively, "Dn, do you think I could enjoy being waited upon by a


    handsome man?" She held the hairdryer out to him. "Could you help me dry my hair?"


    "I can''t use my legs, but did you lose your arms?"


    Kendall pouted, but she had already guessed that he would not agree to it. She withdrew her hands


    and began to dry her hair.


    Dn continued watching her in silence.


    After two minutes, he pushed himself over in the wheelchair and reached out for the hairdryer.


    Kendall turned it off and said, "Dn, my hair''s almost dried, so I won''t trouble you. Why don''t you


    head back to your room and rest?"


    "This is also my room."


    Kendallughed. "Oh please. You''ll probably run off soon enough. I wonder what you''re so shy about.


    You can''t do that anymore, so why are you afraid that I''ll eat you up?"


    Dn red at her. "You shouldn''t talk like that."


    "I didn''t even use any curse words."


    That shut Dn up.


    It was true that she only taunted him and didn''t use any curse words.


    He snatched the hairdryer away from her and grabbed the ends of her hair. Afraid that he might rip her


    hair out, she hurriedly lowered her head as she said, "This better not be you trying to take revenge on


    me. I''m not forcing you to dry my hair for me."


    "Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down. Never gonna run around and desert you…"


    Kendall''s phone was ringing, and her newest ringtone echoed across the room.
