"Jackson has gone overboard! This won't do. I have to speak to Mrs. Whittle and ask her what this is about!"

Enraged, Charlotte stood up, wanting to rush over to the Whittle Residence to look for Jackson.

"Mommy."

Kendall quickly stopped her mother and persuaded, "Don't just rush over. We have to ask Kelly if she really is pregnant.

"What does she plan on doing with the child if she is? Is she going to keep or abort it? We will demand an explanation from them if she chooses to keep it. We can't let the Whittles step all over one of us."

Charlotte then barked, "We can't just quietly get rid of the child even if Kelly decides not to keep it. We have to hold the Whittles accountable!"

There was no way she would take this lying down.

Till this day, it still made Charlotte angry at the thought of how arrogant Rosemi was when she came to propose on Jackson's behalf.

Charlotte then took Kendall's hand and sighed, relieved. "I am glad that you came to your senses when you had that dream, or else… As you can see now, Jackson really is not worthy of you giving yourself to him."

I had to sacrifice the lives of both my daughter and my own to see through Jackson and Kelly, Kendall bitterly thought before she suggested out loud, "Mommy, how about you ask Kelly about it when she and Daddy are home?"

Kendall wanted to keep digging up the skeletons Kelly had in her closet in front of their parents, in hopes of eventually disappointing them after their displeasure accumulated.

That way, Kelly would no longer be able to live in the Parker Residence, and Kendall's parents could finally be at a safe distance from the evil woman.

They were already furious about catching Kelly and Jackson cheating. Now that Kelly was pregnant before the storm had calmed, it had undoubtedly poured salt into the wound festering inside Adam and Charlotte.

"Mommy, remember to tell me if you are going to flip the Whittle Family upside down. It will be easier to get things done with more people." I can't possibly miss out on such a good show, Kendall thought to herself.

After Charlotte gave a hum in reply, Kendall continued, "Mommy, I have to attend my etiquette class. I will be leaving now."


Kendall's visit back home was to see Charlotte and inform her about Kelly's pregnancy.

"Hold on! I will get you some apples to bring home. Let Master Dylan have a taste."

Since her dignified son-in-law didn't frown upon her fruits, Charlotte wanted Kendall to bring some home no matter what.

Kendall then smiled and waited for her mother to bring out a large bag of apples, which she then shoved in Kendall's hand. "This is for my son-in-law to try."

"It seems like you no longer want your daughter after you have a son-in-law, Mommy."

"Have you not heard of how mother-in-laws will only like their son-in-laws more and more? You, shoo!"

"Excuse me, birth mother?!"

Kendall, who was in a hurry to attend etiquette class, didn't banter with her mother for too long before she hurried away with the fruits.

She had just left when a maid brought an invitation to Charlotte.

"Mrs. Parker, here is an invitation from the Whittle Family."

"The Whittle Family? Who sent it?"

"I think it was the butler from the family."

After Charlotte took the invitation and looked at it, she threw it on the coffee table, sneering, "Mrs. Whittle is doing this on purpose, isn't she? She is inviting me to the wedding banquet, and yet she has only sent her butler over instead of coming here herself. Isn't she blatantly looking down on us?"

Rosemi brought along a generous dowry when she came to propose a marriage between Kelly and Jackson last time, but Charlotte had sternly rejected her.

It turned out that Rosemi must still be holding a grudge about it.

"Jackson Whittle!" Charlotte growled through clenched teeth. "I will hold it in for a few days, but just you wait until I stir up a fuss on your wedding day! No one can disrespect our daughter like that!"

As expected of the mother-daughter duo, Charlotte thought along the same lines as Kendall.

If they were going to spark off a fight, they wanted to do it at Jackson and Krystal's wedding.

Still oblivious to the fact that her adoptive mother had found out about her being pregnant, Kelly was still waiting for Jackson's arrival at his private villa.

He only hurried back after nearly two hours.

When he entered the door and saw Kelly sitting on the couch with her pretty, yet extremely sullen face, he walked over while wiping the sweat from his forehead and explained, "Kelly, I am so sorry to keep you waiting. Krystal was too clingy. I had to keep her company in order to not arouse her suspicion."

Kendall had told on Krystal to Jackson, which prompted him to inform his future father-in-law about it.

Krystal was then severely reprimanded by her father. After weighing out her gains and losses, she was so afraid Jackson would get angry that she stuck herself to him these past two days in her attempt to coax him.

Kelly only glared at Jackson with cold eyes after hearing his words.

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't jealous.

The man that she had fallen in love with was about to get married to a woman who wasn't her.
