Chapter 633


    "Kendall, ask Dn to look for Emma. I''m on my way to your ce." Roger was speeding through the


    streets.


    "Slow down, Roger. It''ll be fine. I''ll tell Dn right away. Calm down." Kendall went back into the


    lounge.


    Dn was in the middle of a call when she came in, and he waved at her. She approached him, and he


    handed the phone to her. "It''s Miss Finley."


    Kendall took the phone and said to Roger, "Emma''s calling me. Now slow down, Roger."

    Roger heaved a sigh of relief. "Good to hear."


    "Now drive slowly. I''ll talk to her."


    Roger grunted and hung up.


    "Emma," Kendall said. "Roger almost had a heart attack. I did as well. He told me everything. How


    could you hide it from me? We''re friends, aren''t we? You should''ve told me."


    Emma said apologetically, "I didn''t mean it, Kendall. My phone died. I was worried Roger might panic,


    so I used Toddy''s phone to call him, but he was in another call, so I tried to call you. You were taking a


    call too, so I called Mr. Coleman. Tell Roger I''m having dinner with Toddy. Tell him he doesn''t have to


    worry about me. We''ve cleared things up. He''s a good man. He deserves better."


    Kendall said nothing. Noticing everyone trying to listen in, she left the lounge again. She didn''t want


    Kelly to find out that Emma might have cancer.


    Kelly wanted to know what was going on between Emma and Roger, but Kendall left. Even though it


    was her house, Dn was sitting right there. His cold aura stopped her from leaving. She stayed back,


    fearing that Dn might destroy her.


    "So, you''ve decided to go with Toddy?" Kendall walked along the concrete path around the house.


    Roger and Kendall were prepared for this oue. Toddy was her most intense love, after all.


    Emma promised she would give up if Toddy didn''te back to her. She said she only needed some


    time to forget about that rtionship, but Toddy regretted what he did and was trying to woo her now.


    Yet, Emma was still holding on. Kendall thought Emma would eventually give in. Roger had no chance.


    A moment of silenceter, Emma said, "The results I showed Roger are real, Kendall. I''m dying. I can''t


    promise anyone a future with me."


    "It''s not certain yet. Roger told me it''s just a suspicion. Don''t give up hope, Emma. Do a few more


    checkups in different hospitals. My friend did a checkup and got a cancer diagnosis when she was just


    having a normal period. She was shocked and went to get second and third opinions in different


    hospitals. They all gave her the same answer that the first doctor misdiagnosed. Put aside the


    rtionship stuff and take a day off tomorrow. You need to get checked. I''ll tell Roger to go with you, or


    you can ask Toddy to go with you. I''ll tell Roger. He wouldn''t mind. Emma, don''t give up. I can''t believe


    you kept this a secret. Once this is done, I''ll smack your head."


    Emma smiled. "Yes, I''m sorry. I won''t do it again. Calm down, Kendall. I''ll take the day off tomorrow and


    do a few more checkups. Toddy helped me a bit. I should go to Imperia if it''s really PMME. The


    oncologists there can help."


    "Then go to Imperia. Orapolis has decent facilities, but you need an expert''s opinion." It was her first


    time knowing PMME. She had no idea what it was, but she knew it spread fast.


    "Sure, Kendall. Now calm down."


    "I will if you would see a doctor. Don''t worry about me. I''m not an amateur anymore, and Dn can


    help me if I need anything. Right now, your health is more important. I pray it''s just a misdiagnosis."


    Kendall put her hands in a prayer, praying that God wouldn''t be so cruel to her friend. In herst life,


    she barely talked to Emma. She had no idea what kind of woman Emma was in herst life, and even


    until Kendall died, Roger never got married. She had never heard of Roger dating anyone in her past


    life either. The reason Roger and Emma met was thanks to Kendall being reborn.


    Kendall kept trying to cheer Emma up, and she hung up when Emma said she had to have dinner.


    However, Kendall didn''t go back inside right away, but she walked around the yard, watching the sun


    as it set behind the horizon. Slowly, dusk descended.


    "Kendall," Dn called out from behind her.


    She turned around and saw Dn approaching her. A moment of silenceter, Kendall trotted over to


    him and pounced into his embrace, hugging him tightly.


    Dn asked nothing at first. He merely gave her a quiet hug.


    The scent of Dn and the feeling of his warmth calmed her down a lot. She looked up at him. "Can


    you kiss me?"


    Dn gazed into her eyes and pecked her lips. When she closed her eyes, he kissed her eyelids, then


    her forehead, then back to her lips, though the kiss went deeper this time.


    They parted lips eventually, and Kendall blushed. She looked like a blooming rose. "Sometimes I


    wonder if this is all a dream." Kendall touched his chest. Only the sound of his heartbeat could assure


    her that this was not a dream.


    "What happened?"


    "Emma went for a checkup before she started working at Parker Corporation. They found an anomaly,


    so she went for another checkup. Now they suspect she''s down with PMME. Oh, which reminds me. I


    have to Google it." She quickly backed out of Dn''s embrace and looked PMME up. Primary


    malignant mnoma of esophagus, or PMME, grew on the surface of human skin. The tumor looked


    like a birthmark, but not quite so.
