Chapter 523


    "That''s all for now. You can get back to work. Kelly should be looking for you soon."


    Adam was in an extremely good mood as he drank the coffee Kendall made for him. Though he would


    be in an even better mood if Kendall and Kelly could get along harmoniously. Although I''m now starting


    to train Kendall to seed me, I have never thought of mistreating Kelly. However, as Charlotte says,


    Kelly won''t be satisfied with the over 100 million worth of inheritance.


    What Kelly truly wanted was the entire Parker Corporation. Adam did think of handing over Parker


    Corporation to Kelly before he discovered she wasn''t his biological daughter. After all, she was his only


    daughter back then. But after he found out about the child-swapping incident and learned that Kendall


    had be sensible and was willing to learn, he began to have a change of heart. And his feelings


    only grew more intense after he found out more about the disappointing things Kelly didter.


    Even so, he still nned to proceed with the initial n of distributing over 100 million worth of


    inheritance to Kelly in the future. After all, they had been father and daughter for more than twenty


    years. No matter how disappointed he was with her, he still cared for her and regarded her as his own


    family.


    "Understood. I''m heading out to do my task first." With that, Kendall turned around and left.


    "By the way, you should treat Master Dn a little nicer."


    After hearing that, Kendall said, "Daddy, am I not treating Dn nice enough? Other dads are usually


    afraid that their sons-inw will mistreat their daughters, yet here you are, being theplete opposite.


    Why do you make it sound like I''m tormenting Dn regrly?"


    Adam chuckled. "I just think that Master Dn put in a lot more effort than you into this rtionship.


    Hence, you must be understanding of him and cherish this blessing that was bestowed upon you.


    Master Dn loves you dearly. The happiest thing that happened in my life is none other than having


    such an outstanding son-inw like Master Dn."


    "No, you should put it this way. It''s because you have such an excellent daughter like me that you get


    to have an outstanding son-inw like Dn," Kendall said.


    "How shameless!"


    Feeling speechless, Kendall replied, "Like father, like daughter!"


    Adam smiled and said, "Like father, like daughter indeed."


    "I''m off to work." Kendall couldn''t be bothered to bicker with Adam. Thus, she went out to carry out her


    tasks.


    Meanwhile, Adam happily finished his coffee before he got up, returned to his desk, and started getting


    busy.


    As soon as Kendall came out from Adam''s office and returned to her own office, Jessie said to her,


    "Kendall, Vice President Parker''s secretary called and said that there''s something Vice President


    Parker wants to discuss with you. She asked you to meet her in her office."


    "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Miss Holmes."


    Without even having the chance to return to her seat, Kendall turned around and left the office once


    again. She went downstairs to meet Kelly.


    After Cameron left, Kelly didn''t select a secretary from thepany anymore. Instead, she requested


    the Human Resources Department to hire a new secretary. The new secretary''s name was Roxena


    Quincy.


    As soon as Roxena was hired by Parker Corporation, she first dug deep into the situation in the


    company. After learning about Kelly and Kendall''s rtionship as well as what Cameron did that


    resulted in her forced resignation, Roxena did not give Kendall, who was still a small-time assistant,


    any attitude. She was respectful to Kendall, but she didn''t particrly curry favor with Kendall either.


    After all, she was Kelly''s secretary. And since work ethics could impact her future in thepany,


    Roxena knew very well that a professional work ethic was a must for her if she wanted to continue


    working under Kelly to support herself.


    Roxena led Kendall to Kelly''s office and knocked on the door for Kendall. After receiving a response,


    she pushed the door open, walked in, and informed Kelly, "Vice President Parker, Miss Parker is here."


    "Got it. Let here in by herself." Kelly didn''t even raise her head.


    Kendall entered and gestured for Roxena to go ahead with her tasks. After Roxena went out, Kendall


    walked over and sat down opposite Kelly.


    Kelly had lost some weight. Today, she had worn heavy makeup that made her look in good spirits.


    "It''s better to put on less makeup when you''re pregnant," Kendall said lightly. "Since you n to keep


    the baby, you must treat him well. What if your habits now result in him havingplications at birth


    and bring him misery for the rest of his life? If you insist on carrying out your skincare routine, you can


    use skincare products that are specifically formted for pregnant women. That way, it won''t bring


    harm to the fetus."


    At that, Kelly looked up. Like she wanted to see through Kendall, she looked straight at thetter with


    her beautiful eyes. "Considering you have never be a mother, the words you said sounded rather


    clear and logical. What''s the matter? Did you learn about this knowledge before because you were


    preparing for your future pregnancy?"


    Kendall smiled and exined, "There are so many married women in ourpany. You will know a


    thing or two if you listen to their conversation on normal days. With them around, do I still need to


    deliberately learn more about it?"

    After a moment of silence, Kelly said, "Do you usually mingle with them?"


    However, before Kendall could answer, she added sarcastically, "Come to think of it, how can you


    possibly have time to mingle with them? You always have so many things to do. You were either


    applying for leaves or attending social gatherings with Daddy. You should consider having a baby now


    that you and Master Dn have gotten married for so long. Most of the women who marry into wealthy


    families rely on giving birth to a son to consolidate their status in the family."


    Kendall retorted, "Do you think Mom needs to give birth to a son to consolidate her status in the family?


    It solely depends on whether the man she married is a responsible man or not. If you marry a good


    husband, he will bear the pressure on his shoulders and continue living life with you for eternity even if


    you don''t give birth to a son. On the contrary, if you marry an irresponsible husband, he will still flirt


    around with other women outside even if you give birth to many sons. Oh, by the way, the Coleman


    Family isn''t enthusiastic about having male heirs. I will only be well-loved if I give birth to a daughter, for


    they are fonder of the idea of having heiresses. Hence, I''m not pressured to give birth to a son, but a


    daughter instead."


    Kelly''s heart was filled with jealousy when she heard Kendall''s words. As expected,parisons are


    odious! Kendall is right. The Coleman Family is very fond of female heirs since they''ve had plenty of


    male heirs and no heiresses for thest five generations. Unlike Mrs. Whittle, she constantly said she


    hoped that the baby in my belly would be a son whenever she talked to me about the baby. Through


    this, I can tell that Mrs. Whittle prefers a son more than a daughter.


    Even though Kelly and Jackson were in love before, she eventually didn''t marry into the Whittle Family.


    At the same time, she was also d that Jackson chose to sacrifice their rtionship for the good of


    the Whittle Family and married Krystal. Thanks to this, she didn''t have to get along with Rosemi, a


    mother-inw who would keep demanding a grandson and would force her daughter-inw to keep


    conceiving until she was able to give birth to a son.


    Speaking of which, I heard that Mrs. Whittle doesn''t treat Krystal very well. Then again, Krystal can


    forget about staying innocent either when she handed the fire extinguisher to Jackson even though she


    knew that it could kill someone. Now, the Whittle Family and the Caddel Family quarrel with each other


    so much that they almost turn into enemies. The Whittles me the Caddels and vice versa. If I must


    say, this is simply Jackson and the Whittle Family''s karma.


    Kellypletely disregarded her feelings for Jackson after she submitted herself to Brian. Although


    Jacqueline prohibited Kelly from getting together with Brian, thetter had deep affections for her.


    Therefore, the two of them still secretly kept in touch with each other behind Jacqueline''s back. Kelly


    only kept the baby because she thought it was her flesh and blood. With my capability, I can give birth


    to my baby and raise him as a single mother. As for Brian''s promise of taking good care of the baby, I


    don''t believe him even in the slightest. Mrs. Zorn hates me so much. I might not have the chance to


    marry Brian, let alone ask him to take care of the baby. We''re just partners who each gain what we


    need from each other.


    "Is there something you wish to discuss with me?" Kendall changed the topic and got back to business.


    Many things changed because of her reincarnation. However, Kelly''s pregnancy wasn''t affected by her


    reincarnation. And even after going through so many incidents, Kelly still chose to keep the baby. It was


    like everything was destined, and they wouldn''t change because of her reincarnation. Realizing this,


    Kendall thought, Since Kelly is pregnant now, will I be pregnant too?


    Kelly took out a stack of business cards and documents. Then, she pushed those business cards and


    documents right up to Kendall.


    "I have too many business deals that I need to follow up and negotiate with recently. These are some of


    ourpany''s minor clients. I will let you deal with them. Take it as your training."
