Love Knows No Bounds

"Miss Parker is in the car, Dad." Scott patted his father's hand anxiously while pointing his finger at Frank's car. He was urging his father to save Kendall. With a single wave of Eric's hand, Eric's bodyguards started attacking Frank's men. Eric, on the other hand, walked over to Frank's car with Scott in his arms. "Mr. Mendelson, you're not going to leave until you hand Young Mistress Coleman over," he hissed while kicking the car with his foot.

Frank pushed the door open to get out and shut the car door behind him right after. "Oh, look. It's Mr. Ford from Eastfort. This has nothing to do with you, so you shouldn't meddle with another person's business," Frank uttered in an icy tone.

"You bullied Miss Parker, you meanie! Let go of her!" Scott threw his tiny fists around as if he wanted to start a fight with Frank, but Frank's expression remained stern and uninterested. "Someone approached me for a favor, and I have to stick to my promise. You're a smart man, Mr. Mendelson. Your people are no match for mine, and you're no match for me," Eric uttered in a deep voice.

"Was Dylan the one who told you to come?" Frank's expression grew tense as he spoke.

"Yes," Eric replied without any hesitation. Dylan was an impressive man who had known Frank for years—he knew Frank well enough to know Frank's next move. The moment Kendall was chased out of the Coleman Residence, he reached out to Eric for a favor; he asked Eric to go over and save Kendall.

Dylan knew his wife well enough to know she would try to fight Frank, but he also knew she was no match for Frank. Frank, on the other hand, would be on the losing end if he went against Eric. Furthermore, Scott was extremely fond of Kendall, so it'd be nice for Kendall to pay a visit to the Ford Residence. It'd also help Kendall to fulfill the promise she had made to visit Scott in Eastfort. It was Dylan's pre-planning that allowed the Fords to come over and stop Frank in time before he kidnapped Kendall.

"The Coleman Family never saved a spot for Kendall, and Dylan cannot protect her. His grandmother doesn't like the fact that Kendall grew up in a village. Between his family and Kendall, he chose his family over Kendall and sacrificed her happiness. I feel bad for her. Dylan may not be able to protect her, but I can!" Frank hissed. "Mr. Ford, I know you're a loyal man, and I'm sure you can understand my loyalty toward Kendall. My feelings for her are real. I hope you don't meddle with my business."

Eric didn't sway by Frank's speech. "Mr. Mendelson, if you don't hand Young Mistress Coleman over, then don't blame me for thrashing and ruining your cars." He didn't care about Frank's relationship with Dylan and Kendall. All Dylan told him to do was to save Kendall from Frank. It didn't matter how much Frank loved Kendall—that was none of Eric's business!

"It seems like you're choosing to be an enemy of the Mendelsons, Mr. Ford," Frank muttered.

Eric put on a smile upon hearing Frank's words. However, Frank could sense some sarcasm in the other man's smile. "You make it sound like we Fords are afraid of the Mendelsons. Why does it matter if you're my enemy? The Fords have tons of enemies—it'd make no difference if we added one more to the list," Eric replied.

Frank was silent for a while as he thought, I'm playing nice now, but it seems like he's not going along with what I want, huh?

When Frank turned to look at the two groups of bodyguards, his expression fell. What Eric had said was true—Frank's bodyguards were no match for Eric's. A few of Frank's bodyguards had already collapsed onto the ground. Despite this, Frank couldn't bring himself to just hand Kendall over, especially since he had worked so hard to get a hold of her.

"Step aside, Scott. You can watch me beat some guys up." Eric lowered Scott to the ground and ushered the boy to stand aside. Eric didn't want to hurt the kid by accident while fighting Frank. Scott hurried over to hide behind the other side of Frank's car. "Go for it, Dad! Beat the bad guy up!" he cried in his childish voice. Minutes later, Frank, whose knee injury hadn't fully healed yet, found himself utterly defeated by Eric. Eric's punches were simply too hard! Naturally, the winner got to bring the unconscious Kendall away.

Frank was fuming. He had assumed that Dylan wouldn't show up, with Tilly stopping Dylan from taking action. However, Frank hadn't expected Dylan to have other tricks up his sleeve. Even though Dylan wasn't physically present, he still managed to get someone to bring Kendall away. All of Frank's efforts had gone to waste.

…

Kendall woke up to find herself in the Fords' private jet. "You're awake, Kendall," a familiar voice uttered. The voice belonged to Emma. Kendall stared at the other woman dumbfoundedly. "President Coleman told me to accompany you to Eastfort. We're in one of the Ford Family's private jets now," Emma explained. Dylan wouldn't allow Kendall to go to Eastfort on her own. Even though Eric was loyal to his comatose wife, Scott was extremely fond of Kendall. How else could Dylan be sure that Eric wouldn't develop feelings for Kendall while trying to please Scott?

Dylan felt safer having Emma around with Kendall. When Kendall realized she was in the Ford Family's private jet, she sat upright before massaging the sore spot on the back of her neck. She looked around to realize that Amelia was nowhere to be seen. "Where's Amy? She was with me just now."
