Love Knows No Bounds

"I heard from Laura that Dylan took that b*tch, Kendall, on a vacation to the racetrack. Brian, I really despise Kendall. I'm not sure why Dylan married her. What does she have that I don't?" Yasmine grumbled.

To her narrative, she willingly gave up on Dylan because she did not want to be a widow for the rest of her life. To be fair, it was not like he adored her either even before the accident happened.

"Listen, Yasmine. Let me tell you what you should do. All in all, your attention should now be focused on Frank rather than Dylan. Dylan is already impotent, so he is free to marry whomever he wishes. Why must you be envious of Kendall? She is just one who picked up your leftovers."

Brian disliked Kendall as well because her return had strained his relationship with his beloved woman. Kelly was supposed to inherit the Parker Corporation, but when Kendall returned, everything had changed.

"Why hasn't Kelly come over to visit you lately?"

Brian was too preoccupied with work to call Kelly. If he wanted to see her, he usually approached her through his sister.

He was frequently disappointed when he went to the Parker Corporation to wait for Kelly as she was either doing business outside or on her way to meetings.

"She's a busy and strong woman. On the other hand, Kendall that b*tch puts too much pressure on her."

Yasmine wished she had the power to berate Kendall to death.

"If you like Kelly, you must go out of your way to pursue her. Don't sit around waiting for her to say 'yes'. How can she even return her feelings if you don't pursue her with all your heart?" She continued, "You should stop spending the time nagging me and take a look at yourself instead. Still, now that I think about it, I don't think Kelly's good enough for you. Why don't you rethink your options, Brian?"

Though Kendall was not as bad as Kelly made her out to be and Yasmine was well-aware of it, she still saw her as an adversary because she was jealous of Kendall and Dylan's relationship.

After Jackson's incident, Yasmine also realized that Kelly was a two-faced liar. She consistently painted a negative portrayal of Kendall in the minds of others, causing everyone to isolate Kendall. When Kendall was bullied, she pretended to assist Kendall in saving her blushes, manipulating everyone to see how she protected her.

This also led to the misconception that Kendall, the Parker Family's biological daughter, would never be as good as Kelly, the adopted daughter.

Almost everyone in the upper class sided with Kelly.

All thanks to Kelly's ploy.

Aside from rivalry, Yasmine believed that Kendall having a sister like Kelly was the result of her ill-fated destiny.

"Did you get into a fight with Kelly? You never said that before," Brian asked, frowning.

Benjamin agreed with Brian that Kelly was not worth all of Brian's sacrifices for her.

He advised Brian to think about it, saying that it would not matter if he only treated Kelly as his lover, but if he wanted to marry her, he should reconsider.

However, Kelly was wonderful and ideal in the eyes of Brian. He desired to marry her because being her mere lover was an insult to her. As such, he was still very much protective of her.

"You are my biological brother, Brian. Kelly is only one of my friends and the way she befriends me leads me to believe she is clinging to our family for ulterior motives. She will undoubtedly abandon you in the future. All in all, she gives me the impression that she is using me."

"All I want is for you to be happy and not be taken advantage of."

After a pause, Yasmine added, "Last time, Krystal went to look for Kendall with the intention of inviting her to her and Jackson's wedding. Kendall then informed Krystal that the person she should be wary of was not herself but Kelly. Brian, about Kelly and Jackson… You're a man. Don't tell me you don't see anything between them?"

Brian's eyes were filled with pain and envy. Of course, he was well aware that Kelly and Jackson's relationship was not platonic.

She was overly concerned when it came to matters regarding Jackson. Even though she stated that she did not want to fall in love right now, she still treated Brian differently than with Jackson.

"Kelly is taking advantage of you, Brian. Jackson and Krystal's wedding will take place next Saturday. We're all aware of what the Whittles are up to. Since Benjamin wants to assist the Whittle Family, I will not interfere then. Jackson won't have the guts to try anything as long as we're behind Krystal."

"Brian, if you really can't let her go, use this opportunity to put Kelly to the test."

Yasmine now hoped that Brian would be able to let go of his feelings for Kelly, but she knew that his love was too strong; giving up on Kelly would require more than just listening to advice.

"Don't worry about us, Yasmine. You should pursue Frank." Brian raised his hand and looked at the time from his watch before telling his sister, "It's almost noon; you can head to the Mendelsons now and invite him to dinner."

Noticing Yasmine pursed her lips in silence, he sighed and emphasized, "Yasmine, you were the one who abandoned Dylan in order to pursue Frank. You must now proceed because you have made the decision. Otherwise, you will be left with nothing."

Brian had assumed his sister to be a dummy in love, but ever since Dylan was involved in an accident, she lost interest in him immediately and no longer pursued him, proving Brian wrong.

Still, Brian was not completely off seeing that Yasmine was still hung up on Dylan despite already choosing Frank.

"Think of it this way—the impotent Dylan is a man you abandoned and Kendall has now picked after your scrap; your mood will significantly improve if you just shift your perspective. Kendall will be envious of you when you marry into the Mendelson Family and become Frank's wife."
