Chapter 30

"Mommy, I would like to learn how to manage the company. Would Daddy be willing to teach me?"

Charlotte was over the moon upon hearing that. "Of course he would! What we're most scared of is you

not wanting to learn how to manage our company. Since you want to learn, I can even go back to the

company and teach you myself."

When Charlotte married into the Parker Family, she had also entered the company and helped Adam to

take care of the business, but she gradually returned to becoming a housewife after she had Kendall

since all her attention was on her daughter.

"Kendall, do you really want to learn how to manage the company?" Charlotte asked. "Taking over a

business is not as easy as you think, and it would be even harder since you don't have any knowledge

of this field. You need to think more carefully before telling your father."

A determined Kendall promised, "Mommy, I'm not afraid of the hardships I will face. As long as you give

me the chance to learn, I can learn. Since Kelly can do it, so can I."

After glancing at Kendall, Charlotte felt happy that her daughter had finally made up her mind. Then,

she immediately changed her route and drove toward the Parker Corporation.

"Kendall, what happened between you and Kelly? Since you've rejected Master Dylan's marriage

proposal, you've been calling her by name, and not respectfully close to her anymore."

As expected, mothers were more attentive to their children. Despite how hard Kendall tried to hide her

hatred for Kelly, Charlotte still felt the difference in Kendall's attitude. Charlotte thought it was because

Kelly had snitched on her sister, so she explained, "We raised Kelly and exercised a lot of effort into

her. Although you're not blood-related, you must have a good sisterly relationship with her. That way,

you would still have a helper once your father and I are gone. Don't pull away from her because of

small matters."

A moment later, Kendall asked, "Mommy, do you really think she treats me well?"

Charlotte was stunned for a moment, but she quickly smiled and answered, "Kendall, you are my

biological daughter so if something happens, I'll always stand by your side."

Kendall's eyes turned red as she knew that her mother was avoiding her question. She was afraid that

her mother would discover her reddened eyes, so she turned her head and looked out the window.

In her previous life, her parents died from Kelly's schemes. Kendall thought that perhaps Kelly had

found out that they were determined to support her, so that was why her parents were caught in Kelly's

scheme.

The Parker Corporation was not far from the Coleman Empire Holdings. It was a few minutes drive

from one to the other, and one would have to pass by the Coleman Empire Holdings to get to the

Parker Corporation.

When Charlotte's car passed by the Coleman Empire Holdings, she reminded Kendall, "Kendall, do

you see that building? That is the Coleman Empire Holdings, and its president is still Master Dylan. If

you really wish to continue on the business route, you must be careful of Coleman Empire Holding's

schemes. Once you've fallen into his trap, all the decades of effort put into Parker Corporation would all

be gone."

Kendall knew that not only did the Coleman Empire Holdings dominate the business industry in

Orapolis, they were also an influential company in the entire country. The office building she was

staring at had sixty-eight floors, and was like a shiny gem.

She thought that Dylan must be busy.

Not knowing her daughter's relationship with Dylan, Charlotte drove while explaining to Kendall how

powerful the Coleman Empire Holdings was and how heartless Dylan could be. After that, she

commented, "The Mendelson Group had tried gathering other forces to attack the Coleman Empire

Holdings several times but never gotten any benefits from it. Also, the president of Mendelson Group,

Frank Mendelson, is not an easy person to deal with too. You must avoid him as well. Although he is

enemies with Master Dylan, he doesn't treat us well either."

Since Frank was brave enough to challenge Dylan, he wouldn't be an easy person to deal with.

Kendall had met Frank a few times in her past life. He was about the same age as Dylan and equally

handsome, but her biggest impression of him was his alluring eyes.

"Yes, Mommy. I understand."

Being Dylan's wife, Kendall was naturally on Frank's opposite side, but even if she weren't Dylan's wife,

she still wouldn't want anything to do with him.

As the mother-daughter pair enjoyed their time, they arrived at the Parker Corporation. The security

guard recognized Charlotte's car and allowed them to enter. Then, she drove straight inside and

stopped at the entrance of the twenty-eight storey building, whereby Kendall alighted from the vehicle.

Diagonally opposite the entrance was a small garden. Although it wasn't large, it had everything a

garden needed, like winding pathways, rockeries, and greeneries. It was originally built for the purpose

of letting the company's employees take a walk whenever they were free, but it coincidentally became

the Parker Corporation's specialty. Whenever a client came to the Parker Corporation to discuss

business details, they would praise the design of this small garden.

It wasn't Kendall's first time coming to the Parker Corporation, so she had already been to the garden.

She was waiting for Charlotte to descend from her car so they could enter the building together.

Kendall's phone rang right at that moment, and Charlotte turned to look at her.

"Mommy, I need to take this call."

Smiling, Charlotte asked, "Is it Amelia?"

Amelia Taylor was the only friend Kendall made since her return to the Parker Family.

After looking at the caller ID, Kendall replied, "No, it's an unknown number, so I'm not sure who it is.

Mommy, why don't you head up and look for Daddy? I'll find you guys after I take this call."

"Okay."

Charlotte gave her daughter some privacy after that.

"Mrs. Parker, Miss Kendall," greeted the two receptionists.

Nodding in response, Kendall picked up the call.

"Hello." However, there wasn't an immediate response from the other side, so Kendall asked again,

"Hello, may I know who this is?"

"Where are you?"

When the cold voice sounded, she immediately knew it was Dylan. Her expression turned nervous as

she quickly answered, "I'm outside."

After that, he stopped talking, but she was afraid to hang up, so she waited for him to continue.

"Why aren't you talking?"

Stunned, Kendall laughed and replied, "I thought you had something to say, so I was waiting for you to

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

speak."

It turned out that he was also waiting for her to speak.

As she wasn't the one who initiated the call, she couldn't quickly think of any topics to chat about with

the iceberg, Dylan Coleman.

"Remember to come home this afternoon. I've asked someone to help style your hair."

"I don't need to style my hair!" Kendall rejected immediately as she was satisfied with her long, smooth,

and untangled hair.

A while later, Dylan stated, "It's just a trim to let your hair look even better, so don't worry. I won't cut

your long hair."

He liked her long silky hair, but her hairstyle was a little outdated.

"Aren't you attending the Zorn Family's banquet next week?"

"How did you know that?"

Once Kendall asked that question, she felt it was redundant. When has anything stopped Dylan from

finding out whatever he wanted?

He had someone investigate her, so it was natural that he knew her whereabouts, which reminded her

again of the difference between them.

"Alright. Thank you for having me in mind. Are you coming home for lunch?"

"Yes."

"Okay."

After that, the call between the two came to a dead end.

Kendall felt that Dylan was bad at conversing because he always brought the conversation to a halt.

"I might not be home for lunch. Are you okay with that?"

"That's your business and it has nothing to do with me. You don't have to tell me about your

whereabouts."

Dylan's cold attitude made Kendall pout as she asked, "Dylan, do you have anything else to say?"

"Don't you like receiving my calls?"

That question was infused with dangerous intent. Kendall thought that if she were to say yes, Dylan

might very well teleport through the radio waves and strangle her to death.
