"Who would dare to target Dylan?" Frank was interested to replace out as he asked. "I can't believe someone who's as careful as he would end up a target of sabotage."

Frank's man replied, "I don't know the person who did it."

Frank stated, "It must be Yasmine Zorn. She's the only person who would dare to target Dylan. She's infatuated with him and has been pursuing him for years to no avail. He has no feelings toward her, so I guess she must've decided to leap."

"We can't let Yasmine's plot come to fruition."

If Dylan spent the night with Yasmine, he would surely take responsibility for his actions. By then, the Colemans and the Zorns would end up forming a marriage alliance. This would be of great help to the Colemans, but it would adversely affect the Mendelsons.

Glancing at the woman on the bed, Frank instructed without any hesitation, "Immediately send this woman to Dynasty Hotel across the street. Dylan has his private room there."

"Master, that's the Coleman Family's turf, so I'm afraid we might not succeed."

It would be relatively easy to send someone to Dynasty Hotel, but it would be challenging to send her into Dylan's room.

Frank sneered in response. "I'll make the necessary arrangements. You just need to send her over."

Having said that, he hung up and made another call to an unknown number. Once the other party answered the phone, he instructed in a low voice, "I've asked for my men to send a woman over. Find a way to get her into Dylan's room. Then, send her back to me immediately after everything has ended. Don't let Dylan replace out the woman's identity."

"Sure." A crisp, sweet voice rang out and affirmed his instruction.

That person should be Frank's spy in Dynasty Hotel, and he had never made use of that person for anything. This time, he had no choice but to deploy them to stop Dylan and Yasmine from getting together.

As for the person on his bed, she was involved in another sinister plot. So, once everything had ended with Dylan, he would instruct his man to send this unlucky woman to Reill's room, where she was originally supposed to be. As such, anything that happened thereafter would have nothing to do with him.

Under Frank's manipulation, a drugged Kendall was then sent over to Dylan's private room successfully.

However, Frank had no idea what had happened between Dylan and Kendall. Even though this was his dream, he could not make out the scene concretely. Since both of them had been drugged, things would go according to how he had imagined.

He was right.

He popped over personally to check on Kendall when she was sent back, and she remained in an unconscious state. There were hickeys all over her neck, which proved that his plot was a success. After everything was over, he was no longer concerned about that unlucky woman.

Suddenly, Frank jolted awake and stared blankly at the ceiling as he recalled the scene in his dream. In his past visions, he would be kissing Kendall, and she would end up pregnant. Other than that, he did no dream of anything else.

However, this time, he went through the entire dream and found out that he had never slept with her after all; it was Dylan who did. The baby girl was not his daughter either-she was Dylan's! Meanwhile, he was the one who orchestrated all of this by sending her to his enemy's bed.

Despite his effort, Frank knew that he had no one else to blame for not winning Kendall over. Her love for Dylan had always been unchanged. This was because Frank had given her up from the very start by pushing her into another man's arms!

She had mentioned before that the baby had died in the hands of Jackson and Kelly. Due to that, he had gone after Whittle Holdings relentlessly and targeted them to the brink of bankruptcy.

This should have been Dylan's job, but he had helped his rival to complete it instead. Perhaps, it could be considered as his token of apology toward Kendall and the baby girl who resembled her so much. The picture he had drawn of his baby was indeed adorable. He had always thought of the baby as his daughter, but now that he realized that she was his rival's daughter, he could not contain the mixed emotions within him. Even more so, he regretted his actions and blamed himself for everything.

Based on the entire dream Frank had experienced earlier, paired with everything that Kendall had told him before, he managed to deduce that she had been a target of Jackson and Kelly's scheme. Both of them had intended to send Kendall to Reill's room and bring her into disrepute, but they ended up sending her to the wrong room.

In the end, Kendall was deflowered by Dylan. After she was sent back to Reill's room, Jackson appeared and pretended he was the one who spent the night with her. She was in love with him all that time, so she innately married him after the incident.

She mentioned that she had gone through hell when she lived with the Whittles. That was as expected, though, because she had fallen to their prey then. Meanwhile, Kelly and Jackson had schemed so much to put her through all this just to gain the Parker Family fortune.

Yet, Kendall was completely unaware that the baby was Dylan's, whereas Dylan did not know the existence of his daughter either, so no one stood up for the mother-and-daughter duo. In the end, the baby lost her life.

At this point, Frank felt a tight feeling in his chest as his face turned paler than ever. He had also played a part in Kendall and her daughter's tragedy, so he had no right to continue pursuing her; neither did he have the right to bring the baby back because he had played a role in causing her death when she was merely seven months old. She did not even know who her biological father was during her point of death.

Even up till today, Kendall had assumed that he was the baby's biological father. If she realized that the baby was Dylan's and that Frank had played a role in her tragedy, she would surely hate him more than she did now.

With that realization, Frank clenched his bedsheets tightly as he knew that he had no right to profess his love for Kendall. He was the one who had single-handedly pushed her to Dylan. However, he did not want her hatred toward him to deepen, so he decided to keep his dream a secret even if he could not quite figure out the truth of everything. Rather, he would slowly repay his debt toward her and her daughter in the future to atone for his sins.

Thud- Thud-

A series of knocks resounded on the door. Then, Frank heard Amelia's voice ring out. "Frank, are you dead? If you're not, then get up and open the door."

He was significantly speechless by that.

Truthfully, he did wish for his death to dawn upon him just so he could atone for his sins and clear Kendall's hatred for him. Unfortunately, he opened his eyes and realized that it was only a dream, and he was still very much alive. The stinging pain on his cheeks was a reminder of the fact that he had punished himself in front of Kendall earlier.

Nonetheless, Kendall had left with an indifferent look and she was not the least bit affected at all. In the past, Frank had been envious that Dylan won her affection and empathy whenever Dylan was hurt. Yet, he finally realized now that even if he ended up dead in front of her, she would never shed a single tear for him.

Thud- Thud- Thud-

The knocks on the door started to get louder. Meanwhile, Frank thought to himself, Amelia isn't gentle at all despite being a girl, and she's knocking on the door as if she wants to kick it down.

"Frank, get up and open the door! Do you think Kendall would feel anything even if you're cooped up in your room? I've told you! She's Master Dylan's wife and they're a perfect match for each other. If you love her so much, you should give them your blessings and stop trying to wreck their marriage. I've told you what love should truly be about. It should be about selflessness and not possession."

At that, Frank snorted coldly and sat up. He knew that if he remained in bed, the woman outside the door would kick the door down. To preserve his door, he decided to open it and let her in.

Subsequently, the door revealed Amelia holding an ice pack in her hand from before. Since she could not withstand the ice pack's cold, she kicked as hard as she could at his door.
