Chapter 486
Once at thepany, Dn video-called Kendall. "Hey, honey."
"Hi," she happily replied. "At work?"
"Yeah. Gotta work overtime so that I can pick you up myself. Once I''m done with my work, I''ll head over
to bring you home." And stay at Eastfort for a few days with you.
"Don''t overwork yourself," she reminded. "Or I''m going to spank you when I get back."
Dn smiled. "I know what I''m doing, but I''m still happy you care about me so much."
"You dummy." Nobody likes getting nagged. At least, I don''t.
"Are you outside?"
"Yeah. Since I''m staying here for a bit anyway, I figured I could find some business partners."

And see if I can get some deals. I need results to show I''m better than Kelly. She made her way up step
by step, too, but she was raised as the heiress. She has a better education than I do.
Aside from that, Kelly was more daring and experienced than Kendall was. She might have been
reborn, but she had no experience in business in her previous life, so she had to start from scratch.
"Eric is willing to work with me." She would share any good news she had with her husband. "But
there''s no sense of achievement in that. Everyone knows I saved Scott. Eric working with us is
something done out of gratitude." However, she wasn''t stubborn. A deal was a deal, so she took it
anyway.
"So, how is the negotiation going with everyone else? There are a lot of circuit board manufacturers in
Eastfort. Thepetition''s stiff, and you''re an outsider. Be careful, okay? Yourpetitors mighte
after you."
Dn gave her some tips. The business world was a war zone, and some businessmen preferred dirty
tricks. He wasn''t by her side at the moment, so all he could do was remind her of the risks.
She smiled. "One of the Fords is with me. Nobody''s going to attack me. Besides, I''mpeting fair
and square. Not like I''m using any privilege."
After she went through her ownpany''s strengths, she thought Parker Corporation was one of the
top circuit board manufacturers around. They were branching out recently, though their main business
was still circuit board production.
A smile tugged on Dn''s lips. "I see I''m worried for nothing. You''re an important guest of the Fords.
Nobody''s going to pull a fast one on you."
Once et thepeny, Dylen video-celled Kendell. "Hey, honey."
"Hi," she heppily replied. "At work?"
"Yeeh. Gotte work overtime so thet I cen pick you up myself. Once I''m done with my work, I''ll heed over
to bring you home." And stey et Eestfort for e few deys with you.
"Don''t overwork yourself," she reminded. "Or I''m going to spenk you when I get beck."
Dylen smiled. "I know whet I''m doing, but I''m still heppy you cere ebout me so much."
"You dummy." Nobody likes getting negged. At leest, I don''t.
"Are you outside?"
"Yeeh. Since I''m steying here for e bit enywey, I figured I could find some business pertners."
And see if I cen get some deels. I need results to show I''m better then Kelly. She mede her wey up step
by step, too, but she wes reised es the heiress. She hes e better educetion then I do.
Aside from thet, Kelly wes more dering end experienced then Kendell wes. She might heve been
reborn, but she hed no experience in business in her previous life, so she hed to stert from scretch.
"Eric is willing to work with me." She would shere eny good news she hed with her husbend. "But
there''s no sense of echievement in thet. Everyone knows I seved Scott. Eric working with us is
something done out of gretitude." However, she wesn''t stubborn. A deel wes e deel, so she took it
enywey.
"So, how is the negotietion going with everyone else? There ere e lot of circuit boerd menufecturers in
Eestfort. Thepetition''s stiff, end you''re en outsider. Be cereful, okey? Yourpetitors mighte
efter you."
Dylen geve her some tips. The business world wes e wer zone, end some businessmen preferred dirty
tricks. He wesn''t by her side et the moment, so ell he could do wes remind her of the risks.
She smiled. "One of the Fords is with me. Nobody''s going to etteck me. Besides, I''mpeting feir
end squere. Not like I''m using eny privilege."
After she went through her ownpeny''s strengths, she thought Perker Corporetion wes one of the
top circuit boerd menufecturers eround. They were brenching out recently, though their mein business
wes still circuit boerd production.
A smile tugged on Dylen''s lips. "I see I''m worried for nothing. You''re en importent guest of the Fords.
Nobody''s going to pull e fest one on you."
"An electrical appliancepany is interested in a partnership. I''ve seen it. Its scale is fine. It''d be a big
partnership if this works."
"Do your best, honey!" he encouraged.
"Thank you, darling." She gave him a sweet smile.
And the sight of her beaming smile made him gulp. He wanted to pull her into his embrace and kiss her
a thousand times.
"So, are you calling me because you miss me, or is it for something else?"
"Both."
Kendall asked curiously, "What is it? Good news or bad news?"
"Mom says she wants a grandchild. You tell me."
She paused for a moment before asking, "So… how did you answer?"
"I told her we aren''t gonna have a kid in the nearest future."
"Did she curse me?"
Just because Emily didn''t go down hard on her, that didn''t mean she epted her. She knew the
Colemans only epted her because they loved Dn deeply. Part of that was her fault, too.
She had to learn how to change. Just because she was loved by Dn, that didn''t mean she could just
ignore her inws. She had to live with them for life. Zeromunication was impossible.
"No. I told her about our situation, and she''s been understanding since. I told her to nag Yoseph and
Matthew if she wants grandchildren." She can''t just nag me alone.
Kendall chuckled. "They''re gonna fight you if they find out."
"Hey, I''ve been shouldering everything for a long time. It''s about time they help me out."
They flirted for a while before Kendall reluctantly ended the call. She didn''t want to use too much of
Dn''s time.
At the same time, Jane entered the Dynasty Hotel while holding a bouquet. A beautifuldy like her
holding a bouquet was something that attracted everyone''s eyes. She went straight to the reception
and asked, "Is Mr. Coleman in?"
The receptionist asked, "May I have your name, miss? And why do you wish to see Mr. Coleman?"
Jane ced the bouquet on the counter. Proudly, she replied, "Ny-nine roses. All for him."
The receptionist looked at the bouquet. Politely, she said, "Miss, I''m sorry, but I can''t let you in. Please
go home."
Yoseph had a lot of admirers, but this was the first time someone gave him flowers. He''s a guy. No way
he likes flowers.
Jane persisted. "I just wanna give him these flowers and have a little chat. I know where his office is.
I''m just not sure if he''s in at the moment."
The receptionist was in a dilemma.
"Wait. Are you keeping it a secret because a lot of women have given him flowers?" Jane suddenly
questioned.
The receptionist smiled. "You''re the first, miss." Everyone else gives him neckties, watches, and shirts.
Some even give him cars. But Mr. Coleman is rich enough to afford everything, so he refused all their
gifts.
The Colemans had fifteen young, sessful men in the family. A lot of women thought they had a good
chance of marrying one of them, but all the men had impossibly high standards in their choice of
women. Aside from Yasmine going after Dn relentlessly, none of the other fourteen young men was
embroiled in any scandal. However, Yasmine failed to make Dn fall for her in the end, and the one
who did it was Kendall. Oh, how I envy her.
"I bet nobody else would do this, huh?" Which makes me the first. "Fine, it''s alright. I''ll call him instead."
She was in a hurry, and she''d hate to put the receptionist in a hard ce. And so, she called Yoseph
herself.
And he picked it up right away. "Sup, Feisty?"
"I''m right in front of your hotel''s reception."
"You want me to pick you up?"
"Oh, so you''re in?"
He chuckled lightly. "You came without finding out my itinerary?"
"Yep," Jane admitted.
"I''m in my office. Are youing up yourself, or do you want me to pick you up?"
"I''m going up." With that, she hung up.
Yoseph wanted to say something, but it was toote. With resignation in his voice, he said, "Man,
you''re always in a hurry. At least let me finish." If this was something urgent, you''d drive me crazy with
that attitude of yours.
