Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 582

"Kendall." Amelia asked probingly, "If I date Frank, would you keep your distance from me because of his and

Dylan's feud? Would you refuse to be friends with me from then on?"

Her mind was currently a mess. Firstly, she did not believe that Frank was in love with her instead of Kendall.

Secondly, she considered how Frank and Dylan were enemies, so she was worried that her friendship with Kendall

would end upon choosing Frank.

At that moment, Amelia quickly mentioned without waiting for Kendall's reply, "Frank has promised me that he

would never ruin our friendship."

She trusted that Frank could keep his word on this.

With a sigh, Kendall replied, "Amy, frankly speaking, if it wasn't for you, Dylan and I would not have let Frank off that

lightly. If you end up dating him, I will only interact with you and never allow Frank to appear in front of me on a

whim."

There were some matters and words that she would never bring up in front of Amelia, who appreciated her

friendship with Kendall very dearly. Similarly, Kendall felt the same way. As such, Kendall would never convince

Amelia to leave Frank just because she disliked him. However, it was likely that they would be unable to bear their

souls to each other like before.

After all, Frank and Dylan were enemies. The only exception was if the two men called a truce and decided to

develop a friendship. However, that was virtually impossible.

"Amy, this is a matter of your future happiness, so you don't have to consider my feelings. Just put yourself first

before anyone. We'll always remain friends."

If Amelia married Frank, Kendall would undoubtedly send her well wishes. On the other hand, even if Amelia did not,

Kendall would not gloat about it either. She respected Amelia's choice entirely.

"Kendall, I'm glad to hear this from you. I can be at ease now. You're right. I'm very confused right now, so I should

leave town and go on a trip. Once I've calmed down, I'll return and deal with my relationship with Frank."

"Yes, plan a trip and visit some places. Enjoy yourself and relax. If you're worried about Frank pursuing you, you can

change your phone number too. Leave Orapolis silently and tell your family members not to divulge your

whereabouts." Kendall mischievously suggested that Amelia should change her phone number so Frank could not

locate her, further increasing his panic.

Although Kendall was not going to stop her best friend from dating Frank, she did not want to see him win Amelia's

affection with ease.

After Amelia and Kendall ended their phone call, Kendall and Emma met up with Mr. Gould and the others shortly

after. After welcoming Mr. Gould and the others, the entourage walked out of the airport together.

On the other end, Amelia heeded Kendall's advice and immediately gathered some essentials into a suitcase.

Subsequently, she left with her luggage in tow and rushed to the airport after informing her family members. It was

a spontaneous trip.

Sophia knew the reason behind her daughter's decision, so she did not stop her. Not only that, she was even highly

supportive of Amelia's decision to get away from Frank.

As Kendall wished, Amelia also changed her phone number. Sophia and Kendall were the only two she told

regarding her new number, and she did not let anyone else know, including her father and brother.

She felt that her father and brother would be pleased to see her date Frank, so if she revealed her new number to

them, they would undoubtedly disclose it to Frank if he asked them.

It was a different story for her mother because her mother had never wanted her to be with Frank. As such, Amelia

instructed her not to disclose her new contact number to him.

Thereafter, Frank no longer assigned men to keep track of Amelia's whereabouts, so he was cluelessly unaware

that Amelia was already on a flight to another country as he went over to Coleman Empire Holdings to bother his

rival. He was also oblivious that he would not be able to see her for some time or receive any news about her.

Kendall succeeded in clinching several deals at Eastfort, so today was the day they finalized everything by signing

the contract to collaborate. She felt a huge sense of validation in the company. Truth be told, she had always felt a

strong sense of assurance because of her identity as Adam's daughter. Everyone was waiting with bated breath to

see her surpass Kelly, the imposter daughter of the Parker Family.

Ever since Kelly's tarnished reputation, her position in Parker Corporation plummeted. Although everyone behaved

as respectfully as before to her on the surface, they talked behind her back and labeled her as a b*tch. Everyone

thought she deserved everything.

Meanwhile, Kelly was enraged to learn that Kendall had clinched a few more deals. On top of that, John had also

signed a contract with her!

She called Brian, who was instantly questioned by her in a low voice, "Brian, that guy you contacted, John… Is he

actually on our side or Kendall's? It hasn't even been that long, but he's agreed to collaborate with Parker

Corporation and signed the contract."

"I was the one who made him pique Kendall's interest. Their interaction over a long period would surely cause her

to fall for him and have an affair." He remained silent for a moment before adding solemnly, "Kelly, John must have

his reason for doing so. I trust his capabilities. With the collaboration of the companies, he can approach Kendall

much more easily."

At that, Kelly was momentarily at a loss for words and could not create a comeback.

"Kelly, since we've decided to work with John, we should trust him. Even if he can't entice Kendall into starting an

affair, he could still help drain Parker Corporation's resources and frame her for that."

John was a professional fund manager, so Brian trusted his capabilities. After Brian handed over his newly

established company to John, he produced results that Brian was pleased with.

Brian originally felt that the plan to get John to entice Kendall was a fiasco from the start. However, Kelly insisted, so

he helped her to employ John.

"It's hard for us to frame Kendall for this right now. She has Miss Finley working for her, and Miss Finley worked as

Master Dylan's secretary for several years, so she's renowned as impartial and unbending in her ways. She's also a

very capable lady. Master Dylan arranged for her to join Parker Corporation, and my dad appointed her as the

president's secretary. Furthermore, she was also tasked to work for Kendall."

"What should I do, Brian? I can sense my dad slowly giving up on me, and he's now gradually shifting his efforts

onto Kendall. Even those old fogeys in the company have now shifted their support upon noticing this change. They

now think Kendall has inherited my dad's talent in business because she's his daughter. After all, he's so talented.

So, surely, his daughter would be great too."

"That's such bullshit! Kendall benefitted from being born into a good life and encountering a wealthy man like Dylan.

She received help from everyone in everything she did, and that's how she gained a foothold in the company so

quickly. I've never seen a lowly personal assistant in any company go against the vice president."

Kelly was still the vice president, while Kendall maintained her position as a personal assistant. However, both were

gradually tasked to do similar jobs.

Kelly was aware that Adam had started to put her on the sideline and give up on her. It was apparent that there

was a difference between blood and adoption.

In the past, she refused to return to the Woodses, and the Parker couple was reluctant to part with her as well. As

such, they asked her to continue staying with the family, and she remained the eldest daughter of the Parkers. They

made tempting claims and insisted that they would treat her the same way they treated Kendall. That was because

Kendall resembled a country bumpkin back then and was hopeless.

The Parker couple planned to let Kelly continue running the company, but they transferred the bulk of their shares

to Kendall. As such, Kelly was the one generating income for Kendall, and Kendall would be guaranteed a lavish

lifestyle for the rest of her life. Although the Parker couple did not express that directly, Kelly had made this

deduction.

As soon as Kendall showed her capabilities and married a wealthy man like Dylan, the Parker couple's attitude

changed drastically. All this while, they had intended to leave the entire Parkers' fortune to her.
