Amelia was stunned after Kendall hung up the call, thinking that her best friend was pissed off and disappointed in her. At once, she was down in the dumps. As expected, when there's a conflict between love and friendship, I will harm one side no matter which side I choose. I feel terrible to be caught in the middle.

Beep, beep. Suddenly, she received a message on WhatsApp. It was Kendall texting her new number. She quickly clicked on the conversation and saw that Kendall had sent her a video.

Just seconds ago, Kendall had exposed her husband for helping Frank win Amelia's heart, but now, she couldn't help sending the video to Amelia herself.

After Amelia played the video and finished watching it, she sent Kendall a question mark.

'Figure it out yourself!' replied Kendall.

Seeing that, she nearly flipped out. She's so cruel! How can she let me figure it out myself? I'm not even in Orapolis now. I can't figure it out at all. Why is Frank sitting in a room that looks like an office and playing with those black and white beads? They look like sesame seeds, though.

After watching the video a few more times, she was certain that they were sesame seeds. Frank was separating white sesame seeds from black ones.

That's a big bucket of sesame seeds. When is he going to finish separating them? Also, who asked him to do that? Who convinced him to sit there and separate the sesame seeds so earnestly?

Amelia wasn't dumb, and she thought of her best friend right away. Apart from Kendall, no one else can charm the head of the Mendelson Family into sitting there and picking sesame seeds.

Although she thought about Kendall, she didn't feel envious like she usually did.

However, she didn't dare confirm this possibility she had thought of.

With this unconfirmed doubt in her mind, it distracted her from traveling around this foreign city. Being all alone with no one by her side was another reason for her distraction.

Despite so, Kendall didn't plan on explaining. After sending Amelia the video, she returned to the office and immersed herself in the job she cared about.

The time flew by as she busied herself with work. In the blink of an eye, it was already evening and time to get off work.

At this moment, two cars were parked in front of the Parker Corporation's entrance. One was an ordinary car, while the other one was a Porsche.

Two men each had a bouquet in their arms, and they were both leaning against the front of their cars as they stared at the entrance of the building. They were waiting for that beautiful figure to come into their sight.

Meanwhile, the employees of Parker Corporation checked them out. One of the two men was Coleman Empire Holdings' Mr. Heller, and although the other one didn't have a title, he was Kendall's second elder brother.

Although Roger wasn't related to Kendall, they had a deep brother-sister relationship, so in Kendall's eyes, he was her biological brother.

This was the reason why the employees of Parker Corporation didn't dare look down on Roger.

When the employees knew that both Roger and Toddy were pursuing Emma, who had just joined Parker Corporation, they began betting on which one of the two men would get Emma in the end. Many of them put their bets on Toddy, for those who had been long enough in the office had heard gossip about Emma's crazy love for him. Even when the situation was now the opposite, Toddy still had the upper hand in this battle.

Just then, Toddy glared at his rival in front of him. "Hey," he shouted.

With the bouquet in his hand, Roger ignored him.

After not receiving any reaction, Toddy thought that Roger hadn't heard him, so he shouted again, "Hey!"

This time, Roger finally looked at him and replied, "I have a name, Mr. Heller."

"Mr. Woods."

When Roger heard that, he went up to Toddy right away.

Seeing that the bouquet in Roger's hand was as big as his, Toddy said, "Flowers can't be eaten. Why did you get such a big bouquet? You should've saved the money to buy Emma dinner."

"Right, flowers can't be eaten, so why did you buy such a big bouquet as well, Mr. Heller? Although I'm not as rich as you, I have enough money to buy Emma dinner. There's no need for me to scrimp on buying flowers."

"Emma won't fall for you, Roger. I think you shouldn't waste your time on her anymore. Do you think you can have her easily because you're Miss Kendall's brother and are closer to her? Well, I live in the same place as her."

"This is a fair competition, Mr. Heller. I won't force you to quit with Kendall's power. This matter is between Emma and me, after all. It has nothing to do with Kendall, so please don't drag her into this. For you to say that Emma won't fall for me doesn't count unless she tells me that herself, but even if she says so, I will still work hard to win her heart."

For Toddy to have said something like that during their stand-off, one could tell that he wasn't confident enough.

Although Emma had admired him for many years, she had also been hurt by him for the same amount of time. Now, the two men could only win this battle with their abilities.

Suddenly, Toddy scoffed. Kendall said that she would stay out of this, but she still interfered. Or else, why would Emma work for the Parker Corporation? She just wants to make things convenient for her brother.

At this thought, he decided that even if Emma didn't choose to follow him later, he would wait outside her house. When she returned home, he would speak to her. "I won't give up!"

Hearing that, Roger smiled. "I won't give up either. This is my first time falling so hard for a girl. If there's nothing else, I should go back there and wait."

Toddy wanted to ask him to get out of his face but felt that it would be ungallant, so he calmly hummed in acknowledgment.

In the end, the two love rivals stood on each side of the Parker Corporation's entrance.

Meanwhile, Kendall left the office with her father and was followed by Jessie and Emma. The four of them talked about business as they walked out of the office.

The moment they stepped out of the building, Kendall saw the two men standing at the entrance. Immediately, she stopped walking.

"What's wrong, Kendall?" Adam asked in confusion as he stopped walking as well.

"Roger is here."

Hearing that, Adam looked in the direction of the entrance and noticed that the youngest son of the Woods Family was leaning against his car with a bouquet in his hand. Roger had seemingly noticed them as he left his car and took a few steps forward with the bouquet in his hand, waiting for them to come out rather, he was waiting for Emma to come out.

As Adam turned around, he said to Emma, "You don't have to follow us for dinner tonight, Emma. Jessie will be there."

Emma knew that he was giving her time to go on a date, so she looked at Kendall. With a smile, Kendall said, "Miss Holmes and my father will be there with me." What she meant was that even if she met a cunning person, she wouldn't be easily tricked if Adam and Jessie kept her company.

"If so, I won't be working overtime tonight, then." Emma happily accepted the goodwill of the father and daughter.

A smile tugged on Kendall's face, while Emma's face appeared flushed.

"Daddy, I should go out and say hi to Roger."

Adam hummed in response and said, "Okay. You can just wait for me at the entrance. Remember to inform Dylan about it. Don't make him wait for too long.
