Chapter 54


    Toddy entered the president''s office at Coleman Empire Holdings.


    "President Coleman."


    "I managed to gather information about him."


    Dn did not even raise his head.


    Toddy then approached Dn and handed him the few papers in his hand, saying, "I''ve gotten every


    detail about him."


    "Put them down. I''ll check them outter when I''m free."


    Toddy then ced the papers on Dn''s right side, where thetter could easily pick them up when he


    had the time.


    Then, Toddy noticed that the two little mice were disyed at an eye-catching position.


    He knew that Dn''s wife gave these to him. Given how highly Dn regarded them, the man must


    adore his wife as well.


    "You don''t have to look at them. I''m not going to distribute them."


    That rendered Toddy speechless, but he added, "I can buy ten boxes of them," he said in reply.


    "Well, the ten boxes can''tpete with my pair."


    Toddy had the impression that his superior was showing off his wife to Toddy, who was a single man.


    "We have a business rtionship with Whittle Holdings, right?" Dn inquired, his voice solemn. He


    continued without waiting for Toddy''s response, "Make something out of it and subject them to losses.


    Then, spread word that Whittle Holdings have offended the Coleman Empire Holdings."


    "Okay."


    Toddy was intrigued by the reason for such instructions, but he did not inquire further and would


    unconditionally follow his superior''s orders.


    "That''s all."


    "Okay. I''ll get back to work now. Do you want to hang out this weekend?"


    "My legs can''t function well. I can''t tag along with you all anymore. Just go with them; I don''t want to


    ruin everyone''s mood."


    Dn was emotionless when he said these.


    But Toddy noticed Dn tightening his grip on the pen he was holding. Toddy knew that Dn was, in


    fact, upset about his disability.


    However, he refused to follow the doctor''s advice for physiotherapy despite the doctor''s assurances


    that if he could stick with the physiotherapy, he would be able to stand and walk like everyone else in a


    couple of years.


    "Dn."


    When Toddy addressed Dn by name, he was assuming the role of Dn''s friend.


    "Simply follow the doctor''s advice and seek physiotherapy. Why not take advantage of the opportunity


    to recover? It''s been a long time since you''ve joined us for golf, hiking, horseback riding, or surfing!"


    Dn simply pursed his lips tightly and remained silent.


    "You now have a wife and a family. Even if it''s not for yourself, you must consider your wife! I''m sure


    she''ll want you to go shopping with her hand in hand."


    Hearing that, Dn put down his pen and raised his head, thereafter looking at Toddy.


    After a brief moment of silence, Dn responded, "I can go shopping with her in my wheelchair."


    "If you can walk, you can take care of her. But now it''s the other way around; she''s got to look after


    you. Dn, even though you don''t say who your wife is, the fact that you ced the two little mice in


    such a prominent location indicates to me that she is important to you. Given that, you must be hoping


    that you will be able to bring her happiness, right? But now, instead of looking after her, your situation


    will only make things worse for her. Will she be happy?"


    Dn''s expression turned to an awful one.


    Kendall had stated unequivocally that she did not mind his disability. She was even willing to be a


    widow for the rest of her life.


    "Think about it yourself. I''ll leave now."


    Toddy was tactful enough to know when to stop.


    After he left, Dn took the investigation results given by Toddy.


    The papers were regarding Jackson and Kendall.


    When he finished reading them, he tore them all up and threw it in the garbage can next to him.


    …


    Kelly''s car stopped in front of the Golke Vi, but she did not immediately get down from the car.


    Instead, she looked around to make sure there were no other cars before putting on her sunsses


    and a cap and exiting the car with her Hermès bag.


    When she arrived at the vi''s entrance, she took another look around and only pressed the doorbell


    after ensuring that no one was nearby.


    Within seconds, a servant opened the door for her.


    "Miss Kelly."


    The servant immediately recognized Kelly and put on a fawning smile. "Would you like to drive your car


    in?"


    "That''s not necessary. I will be leaving soon."


    While entering the vi, Kelly opened her bag and took out a small red box. She then handed it to the


    servant and gently said, "Amy, this is for you. I bought it earlier during my work trip, but I was so busy


    that I didn''t have time toe earlier."


    Amy''s smile brightened even more when she saw this. She said shyly as she took over the box, "Thank


    you very much for this present. Our young master is waiting for you inside."


    "I''ll go in now."


    This was Jackson''s vi, where he frequently met with Kelly privately.


    Kelly then went inside the house by herself.


    Unlike in the Whittle Family where they had arge group of servants, Amy and Zoe were the only ones


    here. Amy was in charge of housekeeping, while Zoe was in charge of the cooking.


    When Kelly entered, she was surprised to see that Jackson wasn''t around. She paused for a moment


    before raising her legs and making her way upstairs.


    She quickly arrived at the room facing the east and knocked on the door.


    "I''m here, Jackson."


    However, there was no response from him.


    She was a little doubtful. Hence, she raised her hand and knocked once more.


    Suddenly, the door flung open, and she was drawn in by a pair of arms. Her lips were sealed as she felt


    herself pressed against the door.


    After a series of passionate kisses, Jackson stroked her face and said, hoarsely, "I love you, Kelly."


    Kelly raised her head and looked him in the eyes. Due to the kisses earlier, she was now panting


    heavily. With a flirtatious expression, she cuddled in Jackson''s embrace. Her demeanor enticed him to


    kiss her again, but she covered his mouth with her hand.


    "I love you too, Jackson."


    "Do you really love me?"


    "Do you want me to show you my heart?" she asked, her eyes welling up with emotion.


    Jackson then pried open her hand which was covering his mouth, and kissed her on the lips lightly.


    Grudgingly, he said, "But you requested me to marry Kendall! Who knows how difficult it was for me to


    put up the show."


    "Aren''t you having a good time? Look, you''re not used to Kendall being uninterested in you now."


    "I was just acting in front of your adoptive parents."


    Kelly was not interested in continuing the conversation. Hence, she asked, "Where''s your injuries? Let


    me have a look."


    Jackson then yanked her from his embrace and grumbled, "There are w marks all over my hands


    and feet! The dogs in the Coleman Family are simply too frightening. They didn''t bite me much but


    when they tried to tear my clothes, they left a lot of w marks on my limbs and even my neck.


    Fortunately, the marks on my neck aren''t visible. Otherwise, I wouldn''t dare to reveal myself."


    Then, Jackson stroked his own face and continued, "If they dare to scratch my face, I will definitely kill


    them."


    He was, obviously, pleased with his own looks.


    Following his words, Kelly checked on his injuries and said dearly, "Are the dogs insane? How can they


    cause you such injuries?"


    "It was Kendall!"


    Jackson was still terrified whenever he remembered the incident.


    Kendall saw him being chased and bitten by the dogs, but she did not save him or even ask anyone to


    get the dogs away from him. Jackson would have been bitten or scared to death if it hadn''t been for the


    fact that someone from the Colemans happened toe out.


    It was just too terrifying! This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.
