Chapter 95
Tilly expressed her thoughts so intimidatingly that it sounded like a threat. "Kendall has been away for
most of the time these two days. What''s she been doing? Tell her to see me when she is back in the
afternoonter. I''ll talk to her myself." After all, the olddy wasn''t about to let her grandson change his
mind about undergoing physiotherapy, considering what it took for Dn to finally ept that.
"S-Sure," Amos replied, wondering whether Dn would really get on the wrong side of his
grandmother for Kendall. Deep down, he hoped Dn wouldn''t me him for running his mouth off.
"Is there anything else?"
"No."
"Good. Go ahead and make the call."
"Of course," Amos politely responded with an affirmative hum and excused himself silently.
As soon as the butler was gone, Tilly stood up and entered the area where a portrait of herte
husband was kept for everyone else in the family to pay their respect to. While staring at herte
husband''s portrait for a few moments, she broke the silence and mentioned, "Honey, our elder
grandson, Dn, has finally decided to ept his physiotherapy treatment. This is all thanks to you,
but please continue to watch over him and see that he recovers from his current state. I hope he''ll be
able to walk again and be a real man for his wife."
While Tilly was happy that Dn was willing to undergo his physiotherapy, she seemed to be bothered
by his infertility. After all, she and herte husband had dedicated their lives to nurturing and educating
their heir, Dn, who sessfully took over Coleman Empire Holdings when he came of age, which
was something she and her deceased husband couldn''t feel prouder of.

Already an established corporation, Coleman Empire Holdings grew bigger and bigger in scale under
Dn''s leadership as it became one of the strongestpanies in the era. Therefore, Tilly could never
ept the fact that her brilliant grandson couldn''t pass down his superior genes to his child.
On the other hand, Kendall woke up from a catnap on azy afternoon and realized she was running
late upon taking a look at the time. Anxious, she hastily sprang off her bed and rushed out of the room,
only to hear a bitter voice that made her stop in her tracks. "Kendall, are you going to just leave me
behind like that after you slept with me?"
Kendall looked back and gave the man a ttering smile. "Oh, please, Dn. I''m runningte and today
is my first day of work. So, I really have to get going now. If you''re still sleepy, why don''t you nap
longer?”
Dn sat up straight and struggled to stand on his feet by propping his body with his hands on the
headboard as he looked like he wanted to go somewhere. With his wheelchair in the living room, he
could never make it there by himself, so she had no choice but to return and help him up.
Despite her concern about runningte for work, she couldn''t just leave him behind and risk him hurting
himself. After all, she was afraid that the Coleman Family woulde after her if he tripped or slipped,
not to mention the fact that her conscience would me it on her.
"I called yourpany and applied for a 10-minute leave on your behalf."
Thinking there were still ten minutes until her working hours began, Kendall believed she should be
able to arrive on time with an additional ten more minutes. "D-Did you really apply for a leave for me?"
"Yup, I talked to Dad."
For some reason, the way Dn referred to her father as ''Dad'' didn''t sit well with Kendall. "What was
the reason you gave him?"
"Did I need to give one?" Dn responded with a rhetorical question in a domineering manner. When
he called his father-inw earlier, Adam didn''t even bother to ask him for a reason before permitting the
leave.
Therefore, Kendall was speechless at the thought of her father''s fear for Dn.
After helping Dn make it out of the bedroom, she carefully walked him to the wheelchair and
wheeled him out the door. Despite the 10-minute leave that she had been granted, she was still
concerned about the limited time she had. Furthermore, she was aware that Dn had his own work to
do as well.
Since they were in a hurry, neither of them said a single word to each other when Kendall was wheeling
Dn out of the house. While Dn was a man of few words, Kendall was always the one who started
the conversation between them. If she didn''t do that, he would just remain silent without speaking a
single word. For that, she alwaysined about his sé nature that was capable of turning
anyone who was chatting with him off.
When they got to their car at Parker Corporation, Kendall opened the car door and was about to take
off running, but it was then that she heard Dn''s cold voice again. "Kendall, are you going to just run
off like that?"
Um? Finding his behavior a little strange after his nap, she preferred watching the man''s adorable look
in his sleep. Soon, she tilted her head, as if she was hoaxing a kid. "Dn, I''m really going to bete,
but I promise I''ll keep youpany over the weekend, which is tomorrow. So, be a good boy, would
you? Here, let me kiss you." She then cupped his face and kissed his cheek before releasing him and
running into the building.
Seeing her sprint like an athlete, Dn smiled in amusement and murmured, "If there was an
earthquake, she would probably be the fastest woman alive." However, no one else dared to respond
to his words because none of them was allowed to make jokes with Kendall, except for Dn himself.
Although he might look like he always liked to bully Kendall, they all knew that the man would surely let
no one who disrespected his wife go unpunished.
It was only until Kendall disappeared from sight that Dn instructed his driver to hit the road.
Meanwhile, Kendall spent her entire afternoon focusing on her job. After gettingfortable with her
duties, she was now able to concentrate better and learn productively. Whenever she came across
anything she wasn''t sure about, she would either consult her father or speak to Jessie.
Later that evening, everyone else left the office, but Kendall stayed behind to finish her work. Since the
next day was the weekend, there were also a few other employees who decided to work overtime after
dinner toplete their unfinished tasks, in order to enjoy a rxing weekend.
Without anyone to talk to, Kendall soon began to feel sleepy as she carried on with her work. When
she looked at the time, she realized it was already past 9.00PM. "Oh, gosh. It''s gettingte now," she
murmured to herself. "Why didn''t anybody tell me that? Wait! Dn!"
Knowing that Dn rarely entertained his clients, Kendall was even more convinced that he wouldn''t
do that due to his condition after the ident. Thus, she believed he should be home by dusk every
day after work. I bet he should be home at this hour. She then packed her belongings and grabbed her
purse, whereupon she scurried out of her office and made her way toward the elevator.
When Kendall exited the building, she noticed several eye-catching luxury cars pulled up outside the
company''s entrance. While those vehicles had turned many heads, one of the members from the top
management immediately recognized Dn''s car among the motorcade, judging from its unique
license te that was widely known across Orapolis. As she got closer, it became clear to her that
those cars belonged to her husband''s motorcade. Stunned, she instantly picked up her pace and
rushed out of the building.
In the meantime, every other employee only watched in speechlessness, but before they realized it,
Kendall was already far from them. Looking at her desperate reaction, they all criticized her for
jeopardizing her own reputation as the Parker Family''s daughter. Then, theypared her to Kelly,
whom they thought was calmer and more mature, thinking she would have walked slowly toward
Dn''s car if she was in Kendall''s ce.
Deep down, they all looked down upon Kendall because of her lowly origin from a rural vige and
reckoned she was nowhere near her older sister, Kelly. In fact, a lot of people in thepany naturally
liked topare the sisters. In their eyes, Kelly was a young, capable and beautifuldy who was
admired by many men in thepany.
Although some of her admirers mustered their courage to confess their feelings for her, she turned
them down because of her strict principle against any rtionship at her workce; on the other hand,
Kendall only had eyes for her own husband without any concern about her own reputation. After all,
she couldn''t care less about other people''s opinions, thinking there was nothing she could do with how
she had beenbeled anyway.
"Dn." Kendall stood in front of Dn''s car and knocked on the window.
