Love Knows No Bounds

Suddenly, Tilly paused. Recalling that her beloved grandson could no longer let Kendall give birth to babies for the Coleman Family, she only felt frustrated.

Just then, Kendall snatched Dylan's plate from him and picked out the shreds of paper that he hadn't eaten. She chided him, "Dylan, even if someone has to eat the paper, I should've been the one who eats it and eats the Coleman Family's rules. Why snatch the paper from me when you already know the rules by heart?"

At the sight of this, Tilly felt even more frustrated. She probably doesn't take my words to heart, she thought.

Just then, Kendall said to her, "Grandma, what did you just say? Can't the women in the Coleman Family go to work? Grandma, what's wrong with me going to work? I'm not going out to commit crimes. I have a decent job that pays me lawful wages. And besides, I'm willing to be self-reliant and get rewarded with my own efforts instead of living off Dylan. You should be proud of a self-disciplined granddaughter-in-law who has self-respect and is willing to be self-reliant like me."

Tilly was rendered speechless. How shameless!

Kendall then added, "In any case, I have to go to work. I can't lose myself after marrying Dylan, right? I married him, but I didn't sell myself to him. I have my own freedom." In her opinion, women should have a job before and after getting married. Only by being financially independent could a woman be confident enough to stand up for herself.

Tilly's face darkened for a while. Then, she said to Kendall, "Does the Coleman Family not provide you with food or clothing, or does Dylan not give you pocket money? Why do you need to go to work? Is there any married woman who shows herself in public like you?"

Kendall replied, "Ever since I married Dylan, I've been wearing clothes that I brought from my parents' home. The Coleman Family does provide me with food, but Dylan did say at first that I could be self-reliant. It's just that I'm thick-skinned enough to scrounge meals off Dylan. But, Grandma, you're right about one thing. Dylan doesn't give me pocket money."

Both Tilly and Dylan were rendered speechless by her words.

Kendall then continued, "Speaking of showing myself in public, I'm just following your example. Although I'm young, I've heard more than once about how powerful you were in the business circles when you were young. Grandma, I adore you for making public appearances and being successful in business. You're not inferior to any man. Seriously, Grandma, you're my idol." As she spoke, she gave Tilly a thumbs up.

Tilly's face was livid, but she didn't know how to refute Kendall.

"I've heard from Dylan before that the main job of the women who marry into the Coleman Family is to give birth to the family's descendants. He even said that in your family, you can get rewarded 100 million for giving birth to a son or 500 million for giving birth to a daughter. He he." Kendall chuckled. "I wonder if I should say that this rule is giving the women who marry into the Coleman Family a chance to earn money—or that the Colemans are treating women as pigs instead of humans. Old Madam Coleman, don't forget that you're also one of the women who married into the Coleman Family." She picked up a cupcake with the kitchen tongs and put it onto the plate in front of Tilly. Despite the smile on her face, what she said next frustrated Tilly even more. She said, "Old Madam Coleman, we're both women. Why make things difficult for a woman like you?"

Tilly took a few deep breaths before saying coldly, "Vivian, let's go."

Vivian hurriedly stepped forward and helped Tilly up and out of the pavilion. Then, they headed toward the main house without looking back.

Kendall stood up and saw them to the pavilion's entrance. Then, she raised her voice and said politely, "See you again, Grandma!"

Tilly gnashed her teeth so hard that her gold tooth nearly broke off. What an audacious and shameless woman she is! She floored me with her words once again. No one in the Coleman Family has ever rendered me at a loss for a retort like this before. If it weren't for my beloved grandson being present, I'd have had her mouth sealed with cellophane tape and kicked her out of the Coleman Mansion!

Tilly thought she had made a tactical blunder by picking on Kendall in front of Dylan. She had thought that he would show her some respect, but who would've thought that he would still defend Kendall till the very end? Not only that, but Kendall was shameless enough to simply not know her own limitations. A country bumpkin is simply an unpresentable country bumpkin. If she's also so conceited and arrogant out there, she'll get Dylan into trouble by offending somebody! At the thought of this, she grew even more displeased with Kendall.

"Oh, no! I'm gonna be late," Kendall exclaimed in a low voice after checking the time. She turned to look at Dylan, saying, "Enjoy your breakfast, Dylan. I won't be having breakfast with you." She then put the present she had prepared beforehand in front of him. "Here's the present for today. As usual, don't open it until you get into the car. Keep the mystery alive, and it'll give you a surprise," she said. With that, she picked up her handbag and hurried out of the pavilion to ask Amos to arrange for a chauffeur to drive her to work.

Dylan didn't manage to stop her in time. "She runs away even faster than a hare, huh?" He picked up the present. Then, he said to Ronnie, "Pack these and send them to that shameless lady as soon as possible for her to eat on her way to work."

Ronnie and the other bodyguards hurried into the pavilion and packed the breakfast as soon as they could. After that, they had someone block Kendall's path and give the breakfast bag to her. Only then did the chauffeur in charge of driving her to her office manage to start driving.

Dylan didn't eat much for breakfast, though.
