Love Knows No Bounds

Meanwhile, Jackson clutched at his reddened cheek—from the slap—and stammered his words without actually saying anything conclusive.

"You did this on your own accord, right? The Zorns have security cameras all over the place, and the moment you spiked that drink, you must have thought that no one saw it, but you didn't manage to hide your actions from the Zorns' state-of-the-art security cameras that can catch footage from every angle. Your actions were captured on the footage. You wanted to drug Kendall, but she was lucky enough to dodge it. You ended up getting a taste of your own medicine."

"He has offended the Zorn family and, at the same time, offended the Caddel family as well. How are you going to deal with the situation with the Caddels? Miss Caddel was humiliated in public when you… After getting discharged from the hospital, you and Mom should get ready to go to the Caddels' house to apologize and ask for Miss Caddel's hand in marriage."

The Caddels and the Zorns were distantly related by marriage, so the only solution right now was to get Jackson to take responsibility for Krystal and marry her. Once their families formed a marriage alliance, perhaps the Zorns would stop targeting the Whittles by taking into account the Caddels and the Whittles' relationship.

"Tom, the Caddel Family isn't a good match for our family. I've told Kelly that the position of our daughter-in-law belongs to her solely."

Rosemi exclaimed displeasedly, "I can go and apologize, but I won't agree to ask for her hand in marriage."

"Shut your mouth!"

Tom growled, "You're not allowed to meddle in Jackson's marriage. If you hadn't screwed things up, Adam and his wife would not have grown distant from us. Even if you disliked Kendall, you shouldn't have done all that. After all, she is the biological daughter of the Parkers!"

At that moment, Tom was enraged with this wife of his. She's always causing trouble for me! She shouldn't attempt to set others up if she's not cunning enough to do that!

"Kelly's out of the question. If she really wanted to marry Jackson, why did the two of them keep their relationship out of the public eye? It's not as if they just knew each other! They've known each other for years! Brian Zorn has been deeply infatuated with her for ages. Do you think she would give up Brian Zorn for your son?"

Rosemi was speechless at that.

Meanwhile, Jackson spoke up, "Dad, I love Kelly but I want to marry Kendall."

"You're wishful! Right now, you no longer have the right to marry Kendall. After doing such a despicable thing, you have no other option but to marry Miss Caddel. Jackson, if you don't want our company to end up going bust, you must follow my instructions. Although the Caddels aren't comparable to our family, they are still the Zorns' relatives."

"Dad, Kelly said that she would help me plead for forgiveness from Miss Zorn. I trust that Kelly would definitely do as she said based on our relationship."

"It's pointless. The only way for you to get over this crisis safely is to marry Miss Caddel. Otherwise, the entire Whittle Holdings will perish because of you."

President Whittle advised patiently, "Jackson, I know that Kelly's the woman you truly love, but that woman isn't someone you can handle. You should just give up. You wanted to marry Kendall to gain Parker Corporation, but do you think that Adam Parker is a dummy? Do you really think that by marrying his daughter, you would be able to gain control of Parker Corporation?"

"Miss Caddel's a nice girl. You've done such a despicable thing to her, so be a man and take responsibility for your actions. Once we overcome our crisis, we can slowly build up our influence and grow to be a worthy opponent of Coleman Empire Holdings. Subsequently, you'll become the successor to our company. By then, you would be able to easily gain any woman that you want. It's not the time for all this lovey-dovey stuff right now. Don't lose your main target for such a minor thing."

At that point, Jackson lowered his head and considered Tom's words. Subsequently, he made his choice after lifting his head.

"Dad, I'll do as you say."

Kelly refused to reveal their relationship in public, and in order to achieve her goal, he had to sacrifice himself and become entangled with Kendall. She even wanted to make him marry Kendall. She was indeed a schemeful woman. Besides, Kelly had a better option and Brian Zorn was definitely a better match than he was. As such, Jackson agreed to follow his father's arrangements. The Parker sisters….

At that moment, there was a flash of ruthlessness in Jackson's eyes. I'll target Kelly first and get her sorted. After all, she does have feelings for me. It would be quite easy for him to get his way with Kelly.

…

There was a creek near the Coleman Mansion, and the water was quite clear with plenty of fish there.

Dylan usually fished here.

Each time he caught a fish, Kendall would sort it out right away by killing and cleaning it. After that, she placed the fish on a plate by the side. Once she had accumulated a significant number of fish, she started to grill them.

The smell of grilled fish wafted quite far, and it triggered the appetites of plenty of people.

"Dylan, I heard that you guys were grilling fish here. I've brought some other ingredients to join you too." This was Alice's excuse, and she did bring along plenty of ingredients.

"Dylan, why didn't you ask me to join you guys? You shouldn't be so selfish." This was Yoseph's excuse. He hadn't brought any ingredients with him, but he had brought along a fishing rod to fish with Dylan.

"From the smell of the grilled fish, it's obvious that Miss Parker has great culinary skills. Am I right?" Yoseph was in charge of Dynasty Hotel, so he had extensive knowledge of food. From the smell of the fish, he clearly realized that Kendall must be a great cook.

Kendall placed a skewer of grilled fish on a little plate and handed it to Dylan. As soon as she heard Yoseph's words, she smiled and asked, "You've tried my cooking before, right? I made you something simple."

Meanwhile, Yoseph was at a loss for words.

"Dylan, you've worked hard. This is the first skewer that I've prepared, so it's for you. Try it and let me know how it tastes."

Kendall handed the little plate to Dylan.

As for Dylan, he glanced at the skewer in front of him. The fish in the creek were not exactly big-sized ones, so Kendall could only make them into skewers.

It looked like it was grilled to perfection, and it smelled very nice too. However, the taste of it was unknown.

Dylan reached out to take the skewer in his hand, and under Kendall's expectant look, he tried one. It tasted great, so he took another one.

"Dylan, how does it taste?"
