Chapter 152


    "Yeah, domunicate with her. Nevertheless, it was also because I did not teach Kendall well that


    she had made Master Dn angry."


    However, this did not go well with Dn, as he disliked the tone his mother-inw was using. With a


    serious tone, he said, "Mother, me and Kendall are a married couple. As husband and wife, our


    standings are the same. Since you are her mother, you do not need to be on the edge with me. Please


    do not think of me being of higher standing than you. What had happened between me and Kendall


    was due to ourck ofmunication and trust in one another. It had nothing to do with you."


    Smiling, Charlotte replied, "Yes, yes. I''m just being a worrywart." For Dn to be able to say such


    things, it showed that he was being serious about Kendall. Charlotte felt grateful for the fact that Dn


    would treat her daughter in such a manner. Yet on the other hand, she felt regretful, as Dn could


    never give her daughter the genuine status of being the young mistress of the Coleman Family. s,


    nothing is perfect in this world.


    Now, with there being no topic left to discuss, silence filled the room. Although Dn had told Charlotte


    not to be on edge with him, she still dared not casually speak with her oh-so-amazing son-inw.


    However, she couldn''t bear the silence while facing Dn, thus broke the silence with the first question


    she thought of. "Why isn''t Kendall here yet?"


    Without replying to his mother-inw, Dn took a nce at his watch and estimated the time it would


    take for one to reach the house from the main entrance. In his estimation, Kendall should have been


    here already at this time. "Amos, go check whether Young Mistress Kendall is lost again."


    "Understood," Amos replied before leaving posthaste.


    Charlotte felt slightly awkward after hearing her daughter would actually be lost in her inws'' house.


    Noticing his mother-inw''s awkwardness, Dn exined gently, "Since our house is big and has


    numerous routes, it can get pretty chaotic. Any average person would usually get lost in here. When


    Kendall first moved in, I''ve given her enough time for her to be used to theyout here, but perhaps she


    has a poor sense of direction. She would still get lost even after staying here for such a long time."

    "Perhaps Kendall… still hasn''t gotten used to theyout. She''ll gradually get used to it."


    With the Coleman Mansion—that was definitely worth a dozen houses by the Parker Family—being


    this huge while having suchplicated routes, Charlotte herself thought she would''ve gotten lost as


    well had Amos not been here to guide her in.


    Soon after, Amos returned. "Young Master Dn, Young Mistress Kendall came back with Ronnie, and


    is now walking toward the main kitchen."


    Dn frowned but said nothing in the end.


    Charlotte, who seemingly guessed the reason for Dn''s silence, stood up and said, "Master Dn,


    Adam would being home soon for dinner. I''ll take my leave here. For now, I would have to skip


    meeting Old Madam Coleman. However, I''ll bring with me a gift the next time Ie to meet her." She


    was worried that her inw would be reluctant to meet her.


    The Old Madam of the Coleman Family, Tilly, had rarely made any public appearance. Charlotte had


    only met Tilly once ten years ago, but even then, she only saw her from far away. She hadn''t the


    opportunity, let alone the qualification, to meet the madam face to face.


    "I''m sure Kendall has gone to the main kitchen to prepare dinner. Mother, you should join us for dinner."


    Dn invited his mother-inw to stay for dinner.


    However, Charlotte was reluctant to do so, as she wanted her daughter to properly make up with


    Dn.


    Noticing Charlotte being reluctant to stay for dinner, Dn asked Amos to escort her out while also


    ordering someone else to send word to the main house that Charlotte would not be joining for dinner,


    as she had urgent matters to deal with, but would definitelye to greet Tilly the next time she was


    here. Lest Grandma thinks that the Parker Family was impolite. Although Dn was jealous and was


    still angry with Kendall, he would still do his best to uphold Kendall''s dignity.


    Kendall came soon after Charlotte had left.


    "Young Mistress Kendall," Amos greeted her and turned to nce at Dn before taking his leave


    silently.


    When Amos had left, Kendall went and took a seat beside Dn. "Why did Mommy leave?"


    With a cold re, he replied indifferently, "You didn''t even invite your own mother in when she was


    here. When I had invited her to our home, you were nowhere to be seen. Kendall Parker, don''t you


    think you''re being rude? Those ignorant to the truth would think that the Coleman Family are just an


    arrogant bunch that would look down on their own inws."


    "I… Hubby." Kendall held Dn''s arm, only for him to pull away from her hold. Not giving up, she held


    his arm once more but was still met with the same result. It was only after two times Dn had pulled


    away did he let her do as she wished. However, he looked away and had an expression that clearly


    showed that he didn''t want anything to do with her.


    "Hubby." Kendall leaned her head on Dn''s shoulder before she said softly, "Hubby, let''s make up,


    okay? From the moment we were married, I really wanted to be with you for the rest of my life. The


    moment we received our marriage certificate, I''d already given up on Jackson. You said that I was


    restless and that I still couldn''t let go of Jackson, but that''s not true. In fact, I was only thinking about


    something."


    Dn gave an indifferent grunt and kept his silence.


    "Hubby, I took the afternoon off from work and went to the Whittle Family to ask for all the presents I''ve


    ever given to Jackson. As long as it was something that I''ve given to Jackson in the past, I''ve asked for


    them back no matter what the item was."


    Hearing that, Dn frowned, his face tensing up.


    "Since we''ve broken up, then we should wipe the te clean. I will no longer be involved with him. I


    know that I was being abrupt and shameless in marrying you. As for why I did so, I''ll exin it to you


    later. For now, can you have dinner with me? Ronnie said you''ve skipped lunch today." Saying that, she


    gazed silently at Dn—who was still not looking at her—and waited for his response.


    After keeping quiet for a long time, Dn turned to face her. When the couple met each other''s gaze,


    he asked in a chilling tone, "How many bottles of alcohol did you drink this afternoon?"


    Kendall was surprised Dn knew.


    "You smell like alcohol every time you open your mouth."


    "Do I?" Kendall then huffed and sniffed her breath before she continued, "I can''t smell it anymore since


    some time has passed. Hubby, your sense of smell is amazing to be able to still smell the alcohol."


    "How much did you drink?"


    Now, Kendall was afraid to meet Dn''s eyes and started shifting her gaze away from him. However,


    Dn coldly caught her chin and locked her head in ce so that she couldn''t avoid his eyes anymore.


    He asked once more in a chilling tone, "Answer me. How much did you drink? Don''t make me ask you


    the fourth time!"


    "It''s not much, only four bottles, and it was beer. Since I have a decent level of alcohol tolerance, four


    bottles of beer are nothing to me."


    "Why did you drink?"


    Feeling aggrieved, Kendall looked at him. "Did you think you''re the only one who has a temper? Did


    you think you''re the only one who would feel aggrieved? I was devastated when I was made to get out


    of the car. I felt miserable when you left me alone back then, and when I kept calling for you from


    behind your car, you ignored me and acted as if you didn''t hear me, and were even ruthless enough to


    just leave the way you did. So yes, I cried. Yet, even after I cried for a long time as I sat on the


    roadside, you still didn''te back. That''s why I could only call Amelia to ask her to pick me up. When


    she brought me out for lunch, I ordered alcohol since I was feeling sad. But Amelia stopped me from


    drinking too much and prohibited me from drinking the ones with high alcohol content. In the end, I


    could only drink four bottles of beer."


    Dn felt his heart ache upon hearing she had shed tears. Looking at her now, who seemed to be on


    the verge of tears the more she exined herself, he gave in and put his arms around her before he


    sighed. "I was waiting for you to call me first. If you had called me first, I would have definitelye


    back for you. However, you didn''t call even after I waited for the entire day."
