Chapter 594


    After finishing the bottle of wine, Toddy was still not showing any signs of tipsiness, and he began to


    feel frustrated with his high alcohol tolerance. ncing at the time, he got up, deciding to head


    downstairs to buy a few more bottles so that he could continue to drink. He was determined not to stop


    until he got drunk and copsed by Emma''s front door.


    Either way, he didn''t n on returning home either and was going to sleep by her door. He didn''t


    believe that she wouldpletely ignore him, and she hadn''t fallen for Roger yet, which meant that he


    still had a chance.


    Toddy had just left when Emma yanked the door open. She spotted the empty wine bottles and the


    scattered shards of ss, but there was no trace of Toddy. She looked at the scene in front of her


    silently, and after a moment, she turned around and retrieved a broom from her house to sweep the


    mess up before mopping the floor. Once she was finished, she closed the door again and locked it.


    Returning to the couch and taking a seat, she picked up the remote and turned the volume down.


    However, though her eyes were trained on the television screen, her mind drifted elsewhere. Toddy


    was still just as impatient toward her as ever. She had just taken a shower, and he already left.


    Emma felt a little saddened by the fact, but she thought of it differently—she already knew how he felt


    about her a long time ago and vowed to let him go and forget about him as well, so why should she let


    him affect her mood? At that thought, she felt significantly better.


    She took her phone and called Roger, who quickly picked up.


    "Roger, have you reached home?"


    Roger was currently living in the house that Kendall had bought and nned to gift to her adoptive


    parents. She had begged him to move into the Coleman or Parker Residence many times before, but


    he turned all of her pleas down. Back when Kendall bought the house, she thought that the close


    proximity would make it easier for her to meet the Woodses.


    "I just reached the entrance."


    "Oh, d to hear that. I called just to ask if you''ve reached home, that''s all."

    Roger grinned. "Thanks."


    The fact that she called to check on him showed that she cared about him. Although they were still


    unable to be lovers, they were at least friends right now.


    "Rest early," she reminded.


    "You too."


    After bidding each other good night, they hung up.


    As she rarely watched TV shows, Emma could hardly get immersed, so she gave up and turned the


    television off, switching off the living room lights while she was at it. Then, she returned to her room


    and sat on her bed, leaning against the headboard as she watched videos on her phone.


    After buying a few bottles of wine, Toddy returned and noticed that the front door had been cleaned up.


    He froze for a moment; he was taken aback before he immediately realized that Emma hade out


    while he was away.


    Toddy strode over and ced the wine bottles down. However, just as he was about to knock on the


    door again, he noticed that the lights were turned off inside through the door gap while he bent down to


    set the bottles on the floor. Emma''s asleep?


    In the end, he lowered his hand that was raised to the door. In just half an hour, he missed her


    appearance, but the fact that she opened the door and came out showed that she was notpletely


    cold-hearted yet.


    …


    In the security room by the entrance of the Coleman Residence, Frank had just finished separating the


    ck and white sesame seeds. The entire basin had taken him a whole day, and from morning tote


    at night, he had not stopped except to eat and drink.


    "You''re already done separating them?" Dn''s cold voice sounded.


    Frank did not bother to look at his rival who hadn''t gone to socialize or pick up his beloved wife,


    knowing that he was here just to make a fool out of him. Ever since Dn got off work and returned


    home, he''d been watching him here. The two did not speak—one of them separating sesame seeds


    while the other stared intensely, asionally letting out a mockingugh, making Frank itch to beat him


    up.


    However, he couldn''t beat Dn in a fight. He was barely able to defeat Dn when he was disabled.


    Now that he was fully recovered, he couldn''t defeat him again.


    "When is your wifeing back?"


    Frank had already learned to hold himself back in front of Dn, and he didn''t bring up Kendall''s name


    anymore so that Dn wouldn''t get jealous ande up with yet another petty trick to teach him a


    lesson.


    Besides, he already understood his feelings. The person he truly loved was Amelia. Even if he felt like


    he owed Dn and Kendall, and he would extend a helping hand to Kendall if she needed it, he could


    not allow Amelia to think that he still couldn''t let Kendall go.


    "I don''t know either. Can''t you see I''ve been waiting for my wife for the entire night?" Dn lied through


    his teeth.


    Kendall had notified him through text that she would be attending a dinner with Adam and had told him


    when she was going to return, but he lied and said he didn''t know.


    While Frank did not believe his lies, he did not expose him and mocked instead, "Aren''t you two glued


    together at the hip? Why don''t you know? Or are the rumors all fake, and you two don''t actually get


    along at all?"


    "Dn, if you dare to mistreat your wife, I''ll…"


    Before he could finish, Dn grabbed his cor and lifted him off the ground. Seeing this, their


    bodyguards instantly squeezed into the security room.


    "Ronnie, get them out!" Dn ordered icily.


    With a look at the two men, Ronnie waved a hand, and both the Coleman and Mendelson Family''s


    bodyguards quietly left the security room.


    Frank did not remove Dn''s hand around his cor and met his eyes coldly.


    Dn''s handsome features darkened as he gritted out with a frosty re, "Listen carefully, Frank


    Mendelson. Kendall is my woman and my wife, and she''ll always be. Unless I die, I will never let her


    leave my side."


    "Since you like Amelia, just focus on pursuing her and stop getting ideas about my wife! Don''t think that


    I''ll hold back just because of Ms. Taylor. If you ever think about my wife again, even if Ms. Taylor is


    present, I''ll break all your teeth to let her see you for the fickle b*stard you are, and she''ll never ept


    your feelings."


    Frank waited for Dn to finish before he raised his hand and forcibly yanked Dn''s hand off his


    cor. His voice cold, he said, "I wasn''t done speaking. What''s with the rush? Or are you feeling


    insecure? You don''t think you can keep your wife around you? Listen, if you dare to pick on Kendall, I''ll


    definitely avenge her. Regardless of how she feels about me, I''ve told her that I''ll always support her


    unconditionally for the rest of my life. That''s what I owe her!"


    "There are many different ways to protect someone. I know now that Amelia is the person I truly love,


    so I won''t fight you for Kendall. Still, Dn, I mean my words. If you dare to mistreat Kendall, I will


    definitely take revenge for her and make you regret it."


    Dn sent him an icy re and said coldly, "Easy for you to say! You''ll never get a chance like that!"


    Frank straightened his shirt and rebuked, "You''d better remember what you just said. I hope that I won''t


    get a chance like that in the future too."
