Love Knows No Bounds

Charlotte had stopped talking.

She knew that Kendall treated her brothers very well, as they had loved her a lot for the past 20 years.

Speaking up for her brothers, Kendall did not want them to wear hand-me-downs from Jackson, which was normal.

In the end, the servants of the family could not bear to throw them away and asked if they could take the clothing instead.

Amelia, after staying for a short time, left.

It was after she had left that Kendall stopped putting up a strong front and hugged her mother while saying, in a pitiful voice, "Mom."

"What's wrong?"

Her daughter's sudden change made her a bit surprised.

"Did the Whittles give you a hard time when you went over? If so, tell me. I'll go over and demand an apology from them."

Shaking her head, Kendall replied, "It's not them. It's Dylan."

"You mean Master Dylan?"

"Mom, we had an argument."

Not embracing her any longer, Charlotte asked, "Argument? Why did you guys argue?"

Kendall then proceeded to tell her mother the reason behind their spat.

Charlotte, after listening to her story, felt pity and helpless as she poked her daughter's forehead. "Did you ever tell him why you married him?"

"Nope."

"You should tell him that you were trapped in a nightmare, and upon waking up, you became enlightened. You should promise him that you will not have anything to do with Jackson anymore. He only cares about you. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen out with you just because you hesitated a bit."

The fact that Dylan cared about Kendall was a relief to Charlotte.

It was only through this method that her daughter could stand up proudly in the Coleman Family.

As for whether a woman could fend for herself and get the respect she deserved in her husband's family, it depended heavily on her husband's attitude.

Kendall fell silent.

After quite a while, she said, "Mom, do you reckon Dylan thinks that I'm using him?"

"Are you not using him?"

Kendall only replied, "... Mommy."

Charlotte then made her sit on the couch before saying softly, "Kendall, you cannot deny that when you said you were going to marry Master Dylan, even if it was to return the gratitude, you were still hanging onto a gold mine. You are using him since his status and ability are so far-reaching. Now that you've been together for such a long time, ask yourself this: Do you feel anything for Master Dylan? Or do you still treat him as your backer?'

Kendall remained silent.

Recalling their memories, Kendall counted on her shamelessness and how cold he was, so no matter how much she seduced him, she would not be on the losing side and slowly build upon their relationship.

Even though they had just been through the marriage procedure for almost a month, she felt as if they had already spent a long time together.

Kendall was feeling more than gratitude toward him at this point.

She had developed feelings for him unknowingly.

"Mom, I love Dylan. I think I've fallen for him."

"Why are you still hiding the truth from him then? Just tell him everything. A husband and wife need to trust, understand, and respect each other. You two need to do everything together. Even though it was a dream, and a very ridiculous one at that, it's not as if you can't tell him about it."

With a sullen face, Kendall asked, "Mommy, you're my mother, so would you believe me if I told you how a dream changed me? Even such a smart person like Dylan might not believe me. To tell you the truth, he's still investigating my past to see why I changed my mind and stopped obsessing over Jackson."

"You changed so abruptly. Anyone would be suspicious of this."

Pursing her lips, Kendall knew that too.

"Mom, Dylan is very angry right now. What should I do? I've already explained to him, but he still chased me out of the car. He even wanted me to go kidnap the bride. Would he be happy if I did that?"

She barely finished her sentence before being poked in the forehead again.

"Can't you hear that he's only speaking out of anger and jealousy?"

To this, Kendall only weakly replied, "... But, he chased me out of the car."

Even a woman as strong as she was cried for a long time.

"In a state of jealousy and anger, people are quick to do rash things. I sympathize with him. But, since you're my daughter, which mother in the world would see their child suffer injustice?"

"Mom, I don't think I'll be returning tonight. I'm going to stay here for a couple of days. I can accompany you as well."

Kendall was actually afraid of going back to face the unpredictable Dylan.

"I don't need your company now. When I get older and need you to take care of me, you can then take some time out to visit me. As for now, you should go upstairs, take a bath, and change. Remember to change into a skirt. I'm going to send you back to the Colemans."

Kendall whined, "Mom."

"Master Dylan was born with a golden spoon. Do you know how many people you've affected just because he tasted defeat under you? If you were to stay here for a few days and keep avoiding the problem, I think that even Old Madam Coleman would come looking for you. So, for the peace of the world, you should quickly go back."

Speechless, Kendall replied, "... Mom, you're exaggerating this. Why are you even talking about the peace of the world? This is just a spat between me and Dylan."

She then mumbled, "He's actually just a spoiled manchild."
