Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 108

By the time Kendall returned after grabbing some food, she could not distinguish which glass of wine was hers. Since Amelia did not have a sip of hers as well, Kendall simply held one of the glasses and leaned against the chair while her eyes fixated on the reveling guests. Having a glass of wine to indulge in as an observer was surprisingly pleasant. Of course, she took a few peeks at her husband too. However, she would avert her gaze as if she was not looking at him whenever their eyes met by chance.

In order to keep herself safe from Dylan's flock of admirers, she would rather not stay by his side on such an occasion. He truly was a capable man; in spite of his disability, women were still hung up on him.

When her glass was half empty yet again, Kendall turned to look at Dylan for another time, only to realize that he had left. Scanning around the vicinity, she did not see a shadow of his figure or even his bodyguard. There were only those surrounding Alice and Yasmine.

Though it was clearly Yasmine's birthday, Alice was equally favored by the guests as well. Alice should be grateful that the Coleman Family was superior to the Zorn Family or she would have been in big trouble.

Absorbed in her thoughts, Kendall smiled lightly. As long as I don't appear in Yasmine's sight like Kelly, she might not cause me any trouble and today will be another peaceful night to end.

Still, trouble continued to come her way although she kept her head down. Soon, Yasmine was seen strolling toward Kendall's way with her best friends trailing behind at heel.

The approaching woman conjured Kendall's memories from her past life. Back to that night, Kendall gave her regards and wishes to the birthday girl under Kelly's reminder. However, when they were toasting, Yasmine's hand trembled intentionally and spilled some wine onto Kendall's gown. The dark red smidgens on her gown was visible due to the white fabric.

Yasmine feigned that she was panicked and quickly offered to assist to clean the mess, yet she seized the chance by pouring the remaining drink onto Kendall's hand, which caused the forlorn lady to be drenched in red wine.

Within seconds, the white gown turned into a piece of shoddy cloth, rendering her to be the laughing stock amongst the guests. Though she was puffed up with fury, she could not flip out to Yasmine's apologetic face.

Now, would the past repeat itself?


"Kendall, why are you here alone?" asked Kelly as she came to Kendall's side. She whispered into her sister’s ear, "This is Yasmine. You should wish her right now if you wanna get along with others in the future."

"Okay," said Kendall meekly. Once Yasmine was ushered over to the corner like the toast of the crowd, Kendall placed the plate down and wiped her mouth nonchalantly before raising her glass. She stood up as she flashed a smile at Yasmine. "Happy birthday, Miss Zorn. May God bless you with health, wealth and prosperity in life."

The other party merely looked at Kendall with pride, but she remained calm with a polite smile in return.

"Miss Zorn, Miss Parker is wishing you," reminded Alice as she could not bear to see her sister-in-law being belittled.

Then, Yasmine let out a smile and responded, "Thank you for your wonderful wishes, Miss Parker. Cheers." She raised her glass as well.

It's happening again. I guess I can never run away from my fate, surmised Kendall in her heart.

She acted like she was shocked and lifted her glass at Yasmine. "Cheers. May all your birthday wishes come true, Miss Zorn."

When their wine glasses touched each other with a cling, Kendall's eyes zeroed in on Yasmine, who tilted the glass intentionally to spill the wine on her gown, just like what happened in her previous life! Luckily, she quickly dodged to the other side in time and successfully saved her gown. Meanwhile, a flicker of rage showed in Yasmine's eyes before she masked her ire with an apologetic expression. "Miss Parker, I'm so sorry about that. Thank goodness your gown is alright."

"It's alright."

Considering her gown was still the same as it was, Kendall would rather be the forgiving lady that she was than to be capricious in front of the crowd.

"Enjoy the party, Miss Parker. I shall greet the others." Yasmine smiled and wheeled around.

Keeping her guard up, Kendall stared at her without blinking. As expected, she 'accidentally' stumbled while turning around. While trying to dodge the spilt wine, Kendall took a few steps back, causing her to bump into someone and even stepped onto the person's foot.

"Yasmine."

Kelly reached out her hands to support Yasmine so that she would not fall on her face. However, it was all just a show. Kendall was aware that Yasmine would never allow herself to be embarrassed at her very own party by falling to the ground.

"I'm fine. Miss Parker, are you alright?" asked Yasmine sheepishly, as if it was nothing more than an accident.

Before Kendall could even answer, she let out an exclamation, "President Mendelson." The man appeared behind Kendall out of nowhere.

President Mendelson?
