Chapter 640


    Kelly was already a few months into her pregnancy, yet her baby bulge was barely visible. Sally was


    worried Kelly might be malnourished, but she couldn''t me the Parkers for not taking care of her


    daughter. She knew Kelly and the Parkers'' rtionship was tense. Most of it was Kelly''s fault, though.


    Sally had a lot to say, and she had advice for Kelly, but Kelly never saw Sally as her mother. Even if


    Sally had advice, Kelly wouldn''t listen. She would only see Sally as a nuisance and stay away from her.


    "I''m fine. Thanks for asking," Kelly said coolly, ending the conversation.


    Milo and Nelson merely nced at Kelly and said nothing.


    Kelly then turned to Nelson, asking, "Are you feeling better, Nelson?" She could never call the Woods


    couple ''Dad'' and ''Mom,'' but she didn''t mind addressing Nelson.


    "Still alive," Nelson answered coolly, making her clueless on how to respond to that for a moment.


    He almost died because of me. Kelly took that attitude and said, "You should get some rest. Don''t push


    yourself. I''ll get you some supplements before you go home."


    "No need for that. Kendall gave me a lot of that already. Can''t even finish it," he refused her offer


    without hesitation.


    He was still annoyed by the fact that Kelly had led Rosemi to him when he was in the hospital. They


    wanted him to sign a letter of understanding so Jackson would receive a lighter sentence or even get


    all his charges cleared. He almost died for Kelly. If she had an ounce of conscience, she wouldn''t have


    led Rosemi to him right after he got out of the woods. She might not have said anything or pushed him


    into signing the papers, but it still bothered him nheless. Does she have no idea how much we


    hated the Whittles back then?


    Kelly went silent again. Alright, this is awkward. Fortunately, Charlotte announced that breakfast was


    ready just then, and Kelly got out of that situation.


    They then had a merry breakfast.


    "We''ve got to leave soon, or the sun''s going to burn us. I''ve prepared everything." Charlotte told Sally,


    "So, you don''t have to bring anything."


    Sally was looking forward to this outing as well. She asked, "Are youing with us, Kelly?"


    "I''ll pass. I''ve been busy all week. It''s not every day I get a day off, so I''d like to rest. Besides, my baby


    hates it when I go out for too long. Wouldn''t stop kicking me even when I was just going around in a


    car." She caressed her belly, love filling her eyes. "I bet it''s a cheeky baby. I hope it takes after me."


    That way, at least my biological family will like it. If it takes after Jackson, everyone''s going to hate it.


    Kendall sneered silently. Kelly''s son took after Jackson a lot. The only thing he took after his mother


    was his skin tone. He was fair and chubby, all thanks to his parents'' love and care. On the other hand,


    Kendall was the only one who cared about her daughter. No one else. Suddenly, she clutched her


    stomach and moaned.


    Everyone turned their attention to Kendall right that instant.


    Worried, Dn held her. There was terror in his eyes as he asked, "Are you alright? Is something


    wrong with your stomach?"


    This could be a miscarriage. Grandma did warn me that I shouldn''t touch her for three months, or I


    might cause a miscarriage. He had also gone through some books about pregnancy and knew that the


    first trimester was when miscarriages happened the most.


    Kendall pinched him subtly. This is just an act, you worrywart.


    He froze for a moment before realizing what was going on. Still, he was worried. That''s some really


    good acting. I almost had a heart attack.


    The Parkers and the Woodses quickly huddled around Kendall. Even Kelly fixed her gaze on the


    moaning woman. "What''s wrong?"


    "My stomach… It''s churning all of a sudden. Probably something I ate. I need to use the bathroom."


    She ran into the bathroom while clutching her stomach.


    Knowing that she was pregnant, Sally and Charlotte were worried something was happening to the


    baby. However, Kelly was around, so they couldn''t ask. Kendall didn''t want Kelly to know about her


    pregnancy yet.


    Dn sighed. "It''s probably because of the food. She ate a lot, after all."


    Now that he mentioned it, he might be right, everyone in the room thought in unison.


    Initially, Kelly suspected that Kendall was pregnant, but after hearing Dn''s words, she remembered


    Kendall wolfing down a lot of food. She sure can eat. Kendall''s married to the richest man around and


    has probably given the best food every day. Yet, she still eats like a pig. Wonder how the Colemans


    tolerate her.


    Kendall stayed in the bathroom for a while. When she came out, she was rubbing her stomach, looking


    unwell.


    Charlotte approached her. "Are you alright, Kendall? Was that really just you eating too much?"


    Sally approached Kendall as well.

    Charlotte then whispered, "No bleeding, I hope."


    "Yeah. Just had a bit too much to eat. I don''t think I can go on the road trip. Why don''t we cancel it?


    Ouch, my stomach''s churning again. Bathroom." Kendall clutched her stomach and went back into the


    bathroom.


    Thedies exchanged a look of exasperation. Afterward, Kendall took a few more bathroom breaks.


    Noticing Kendall''s difort, Adam said, "Dn, take her to the hospital."


    Dn put on an act as well. He looked a little worried. "But what about the road trip?"


    "We can''t go on the road trip when we know Kendall might be unwell. Just take her to the hospital."


    Adam was worried Kendall might suffer a miscarriage, so he urged Dn to take Kendall to the


    hospital. With that, he had lost all mood to go on a road trip. The Colemans and the Parkers were


    looking forward to the baby, and Adam wouldn''t allow anything to happen to it.


    "Yes, Dn. Take her to the hospital. She needs to see a doctor."


    Everyone was asking Dn to do the same thing, so when Kendall came out of the bathroom again, he


    took her away and told his bodyguards to take them to the hospital. However, of course, they were


    going somewhere else.


    Once they were out of the vi, Dn pinched Kendall''s cheek softly. "I would''ve dealt with them myself


    if I had known this was your n. You almost scared me to death."


    She put her hands on her belly and smiled. "That''s the only way to make them cancel the trip. They


    have to worry about me." There''s no way they have the mood to go on a trip after that.
