Chapter 142


    Toddy paused momentarily before reciprocating, "Your wife is really skillful with her hands."


    Looking at Dn''s soft gaze, he clicked his tongue withmendation toward Kendall for being able to


    waver the heart of a cold-blooded man.


    "I agree. Though she lived in the countryside, she''s a talented one for sure." Dn joined the


    complimentary conversation as he genuinely thought that he and Kendall made the perfect couple.


    "Any news about Parker Corporation?" He suddenly steered the subject.


    Toddy shed a smile. "Board circuits production has been their main division and they only branched


    out to different industries recently. So, I don''t see how they could possibly pass up this opportunity, but


    Mendelson Group is pestering them for a partnership. It''s just that Adam… That sly fox keeps holding


    up his decision."


    "That''s because I''m his son-inw. Or else, he would''ve cooperated with them ages ago."


    Who would be able to resist the temptation when Frank was the one offering the deal? Parker


    Corporation was indeed notable, but it was not on the same level as the prominentpanies like the


    Coleman Empire Holdings and Mendelson Group. All Adam had was a few branches under the


    company, unlike the Mendelson Group, which had achieved hard-won achievements in various fields.


    "Rumors have it that Adam is going to have the sisters to take on the project this time—it''s your wife


    and her stepsister."


    Dn responded, "I reckon Kelly volunteered herself while Kendall is just following Adam''s order."


    Toddy borated his own surmise he had in mind, "He''s desperate to nurture Kendall as a qualified


    sessor. After knowing that your very own sessor is not of your own blood, it''s human nature to


    want to support your own child. Kelly can''t me anyone for it unless Miss Parker refuses to work hard


    for it."


    Noticing Dn''s dim face, he added hastily, "But with a supportive husband like you, she''ll be able to


    win the game in the end."


    Dn pursed his lips. "Contact the best etiquette school in the city for Kendall. Since she''s only


    avable at night, check whether the school is willing to ept her application or not."


    Toddy blinked his eyes in confusion. "The renowned Mrs. Coleman is going to an etiquette school?


    Why don''t you seek help from your grandmother? She''s the best tutor you can search for, anyway."


    From the day that she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Old Madam Coleman had spent her


    whole life in the beau monde, rendering her the epitome of etiquette itself.


    Dn pinched his Aries toy as he exined, "She doesn''t like Kendall. If I ask her for help, Kendall will


    only end up having a hard time. She is my grandmother, someone whom I revere the most, while


    Kendall is my wife. They are the ones I''ll be spending my whole life with. No matter which side I stand


    on, one of them is bound to be hurt. So, an etiquette school will be the best option for now. Kendall has


    the elite blood in her. It''s just that she grew up in a different environment. During the one year spent


    with the Parker Family, my mother-inw felt guilty and had overindulged her instead of teaching the


    customary decorum that she needs to know. That''s why she still has many bad habits to change. Give


    her some time. She''ll be a brand new person after that."


    In his opinion, Kendall was a diamond that was yet to be polished and had a huge space for


    improvement.


    "Fine, fine. I''ll help you. She''s your wife; I''m sure any school will vie just to ept her enrollment even


    if she can only attend midnight lessons. With Mrs. Coleman as one of their students, I bet they won''t


    have to worry about the student count for eternity."


    However, Toddy was curious about something. "But aren''t you going to do anything when your wife


    meets Leonel with her sister? He is a man of capability but with a shoring of liking young girls. I


    have a bad impression of your wife and I know that she''s a gorgeous young woman."


    Dn could easily read between the lines and Toddy knew he was worried about Kendall when he


    identally pinched the toy too hard, causing the toy to squeak.


    "She won''t want that. Even though I can protect her for life, Kendall wouldn''t want to stay behind my


    shadows for her entire life."


    Dn knew Kendall''s character very well. Though she had many secrets hiding from him, he could


    sense her strong yet inexplicable resentment toward Jackson and Kelly. Right now, it was a true fact


    that Kelly was morepetent than Kendall was. However, she would not allow herself to be an


    ignorant novice for long, so she needed to gain more experience by building the stack little by little to


    climb thedder higher.


    "Leonel does like young women, but he won''t force himself on them as he stays true to his principles.


    Besides, do you think that Kendall would fancy someone like him after seeing me every day? He''d be


    digging his own grave if he was to force upon her."


    Even the bodyguard from Mendelson Family had tasted how it felt to be flipped over the shoulder by


    Kendall. Dn believed that she could punch a pervert like a walk in the park.


    "You''re so cool about your wife."


    "What other choice do I have? Chain her up so that she would stay by my side? I''m happy to do so, but


    she won''t agree." He actually enjoyed spending time with her; times always passed quickly whenever


    they were together.

    Toddy was speechless for a moment. "I feel like we''re talking about twopletely different Kendall


    right now."


    "I am talking about her. It''s just that her way of dealing things is different from what you may have


    known."


    After shifting his hand away from the toy, Dn said, "I''ve fed you answers to appease your curiosity,


    so please leave unless you have something important to talk about. If you''re dying of boredom, I can


    dly give you more work."


    Toddy came to his senses immediately upon hearing the sinister words. Right when he was going to


    broach something serious, he recalled something with a smile. "You finally agreed to rehab."


    Dn gave him an eye roll, but he did not mind as he eximed, "The power of love is indeed beyond


    our imagination. I''m very sure that it''s because of Kendall. Miss Finley has been waiting for you all


    these years. When are you going to give her an answer?"


    Toddy was caught off-guard by the sudden topic. "I didn''t ask for her to do that and I''m not interested in


    her. If she''s not going to marry someone else, she''ll be a spinster in the end."


    He was vexed by the intense gaze from his boss. "Dn, you know that I''m a misogamist."


    Silence dawned upon both parties before Dn piped up, "I hope you won''t regret one day ande


    asking me for help."


    Toddy was assaulted by a sudden sense of frantess when he heard that, but he figured he would not


    regret his decision as he remembered Emma''s obsession over him.
