Love Knows No Bounds novel (Kendall and Dylan) -
Chapter 88
One of them started to get chills as Kendall had once flipped him over her shoulder too.
Kendall, on the other hand, hadn't noticed anything. She was so enraged by Jackson's actions that she continued to kick him aggressively while scolding him "Pervert! You have no right to even touch me! I'm going to kick you to death! What a b*stard!"
"Stop it, Kendall. Stop kicking me!" Jackson yelled, his arms wrapped around his face to protect his face from Kendall's kicks.
He was also experiencing back pain as a result of her flipping.
Despite knowing Kendall for many years, this was the first time he realized her strength was so great that she could even flip him around.
"What are you doing? Kendall!"
Adam was on his way somewhere else when he came close to them and witnessed the entire scene of her kicking Jackson. That stunned him for a brief moment before he yelled at her to stop.
When she heard her father's yell, Kendall immediately stopped kicking. Jackson took advantage of the opportunity to get up and flee from her. He then hid in a corner, terrified.
"Dad, h-he took advantage of me," she explained.
Adam's face turned solemn when he heard that and he looked toward Jackson. The latter then said, "Mr. Parker, I-I just couldn't control myself."
"You couldn't control yourself? Jackson Whittle, your mother personally delivered the betrothal gift to us and specifically stated that you wanted to marry Kelly, but now you're here laying your hands on Kendall and justifying it by saying you can't control yourself? What do you mean exactly? Is my daughter someone you can do whatever you want with?"
Choking back sobs, Jackson quickly explained, "That is my mother's wish, not mine, Mr. Parker. Today I came here to―"
"You want me to seek Dylan out and beg him to help you? Do you believe I have that much power to make him listen to me?"
Kendall interrupted Jackson and finished his sentence for him, at the same time explaining the situation to Adam.
Adam was, of course, aware of the Whittle Holdings' situation. If Dylan wasn't his son-in-law, he would definitely assist the Whittles after knowing they were in trouble. But he couldn't do anything now because he couldn't possibly be at odds with his son-in-law.
Truth was, Adam suspected Dylan's treatment of the Whittle Holdings was all because of Kendall.
"Go back first, Kendall."
Looking around at the group of people who remained silent, Adam told Kendall to return to her office first.
Kendall responded with a light hum and walked away. As she turned around, she noticed that the group's leader was none other than Frank, the man who had robbed her of her virginity in her previous life.
Why is Frank here?
Her heart was full of doubts.
How long has he been watching us?
"President Mendelson." She did not let her doubts show and politely greeted him.
It was only now that Frank approached them, his bodyguard trailing behind him.
That took Jackson by surprise. It was completely unexpected for Frank to appear in the Parker Corporation.
Hence, Jackson immediately stood up straight and tidied his clothes in order to leave a good impression on Frank.
Suddenly, two arms extended toward him and tidied his clothes.
He raised his head and realized that it was Frank. Flattered by such actions of Frank, he smiled fawningly and greeted, "President Mendelson."
Frank was the only one in Orapolis who could stand against Dylan.
If Dylan continued to deal with the Whittles, the Whittle Holdings could only turn to the Zorn Holdings or the Mendelson Group for assistance. The Whittles would be saved if either of these two companies was willing to lend a helping hand.
Just as Frank finished tidying up Jackson's clothes, he suddenly grabbed his arm.
And the next second, everyone heard Jackson's miserable scream.
Frank actually twisted Jackson's arm so hard that it dislocated!
Then, Frank released his grip and his bodyguard immediately handed him some wet tissues. He threw them to Jackson's face, completely covering his face after using them to wipe his hand.
"I despise men who take advantage of women!" Frank exclaimed coldly before striding toward the president's office, his bodyguard following close behind.
Both Adam and Kendall were stupefied by what happened.
"Dad, is President Mendelson here for you?"
"He said he has some business to discuss with me. I came out after Jessie told me that he was on his way, but... Kendall, I'll leave the situation to you. I need to attend to President Mendelson now."
Adam had no idea what had brought the illustrious President Mendelson to their Parker Corporation.
Unlike Jackson, Adam was not impressed by Frank's presence. He was skeptical, if not terrified, of it.
Frank was Dylan's arch-enemy!
Though the fact that Adam was Dylan's father-in-law had not yet been made public, he could not have any contact with Frank. Otherwise, it would be a hindrance to Dylan. Since Frank was already present, however, Adam couldn't just ignore him.
He was really in a fix this time!
After he left, Jackson and Kendall were the only ones remaining.
"Do you want to get out yourself, Jackson Whittle, or do you want me to send someone to carry you out?"
Jackson, on the other hand, was in so much pain from his dislocated arm courtesy of Frank that he was breaking out in cold sweat.
He looked at Kendall pitifully, his eyes filled with mixed emotions.
"I will not stop here, Kendall! I will marry you!"
With that, Jackson left as he cradled his dislocated arm.
"No way! I'd rather marry any Tom, Dick, or Harry than you! Simply marry your Kelly!"
Her biological mother would never agree to any kind of marriage with the Whittles. Kelly would have to cut all ties with the Parkers if she insisted on marrying Jackson. Could she bear to do that?
After Jackson left, Kendall lightly smoothed her clothes and rushed back to her office.
However, she wasn't in the mood to work. All her mind, and her heart, was in the president's office.
Meanwhile, in the president's office, Adam was personally serving Frank tea.
"Please just leave this chore to your assistant, President Parker."
Frank had a deep voice, and his attractive eyes were constantly shining. No one could read his mind.
"My assistant has just started her job today. She's clumsy, and I'm afraid she won't be able to do it well."
"Well, since she is your assistant, she should act like one. She still has to do it no matter how bad at it she is. You can't pay her if she doesn't do anything, can you? She is not yet familiar with the chores, but she will be if she does them on a regular basis. President Parker, you must give her the opportunity to train herself."
Adam had no idea how to respond to that. Just candidly tell me that you want to see my daughter rather than skirting the corners!
He then poured a half-cup of tea for Frank and changed the subject of their conversation. "President Mendelson, please have some tea."
Frank accepted the cup but did not drink it. As he looked at Adam, Frank placed the cup on the table while sitting down and said, "President Parker, you don't have to overthink things. Just as I have said, I am here for business."
"It's an honor for both me and the Parker Corporation. I'm curious what kind of collaboration you have in mind, President Mendelson."
"We have several electronics factories under the Mendelson Group. The circuit board suppliers that we have previously worked with had some quality issues, forcing us to return the products to them for redo. That affected our production a lot and due to that, I have already stopped working with them. As the Parker Corporation is the best circuit boards manufacturer in Orapolis, I intend to hand over our orders to the Parker Corporation. Are you interested in working with the Mendelson Group, President Parker?"
