Love Knows No Bounds

"Your son-in-law knows about it," Kendall answered Adam as she walked out with Emma.

She walked toward Roger and called out with a smile, "Roger."

"Done with work?" Roger returned her cheeky grin, but his gaze soon fell on Emma.

Seeing that Emma was next to Kendall, Toddy walked over and politely greeted Kendall before handing the bouquet in his hand to Emma.

However, Emma refused his bouquet and took two steps forward instead, saying to Roger, "Roger, you're here to pick me up, right? I don't have to work overtime today, so let's go for dinner, and we can watch a movie afterward."

Saying that, she voluntarily took Roger's hand and said to Kendall, "Kendall, I'm going to leave with Roger first."

Kendall felt that Emma was being petty by holding onto Roger's arm and intended to provoke Toddy. She noticed that when Emma did this, Roger was surprised while Toddy dripped with jealousy.

"Yeah, go ahead. I'll wait for my dad here."

However, Kendall did not expose Emma's intentions and watched as she left with her arm around Roger's and got into his car. Soon, the two sped away into the night.

Holding the bouquet of flowers that Emma had rejected, Toddy remained frozen in place as he watched the two leave, his gaze filled with dejection.

A moment later, he retracted his gaze and tilted his head to cast Kendall a sideways glance. After a moment of silence, he said, "I won't give up on Emma."

"Mr. Heller, it's no use to tell me. Even though your rival is my brother, I won't interfere in things between the three of you. No matter whom Emma chooses, I will respect her choice and give her my utmost blessings. I also asked for her approval before hiring her at Parker Corporation, and she was willing to come because she wanted to help me, not because of Roger. Mr. Heller, I hope you can understand that you are the sole reason why you and Emma have come to this now."

"Once, there was a woman who loved you dearly right in front of you, but you didn't appreciate her. When she turned around and left, you only realized how good she was then, and wished that she would still be waiting for you. Do you think something as good as that exists? No one will stay in place and wait for you."

Kendall would not interfere in their love triangle, but she still felt sorry for Emma's past and detested Toddy's heartlessness. Now that someone was going after Emma, he regretted it; he truly deserved what he got, and even his best friend and superior, Dylan, agreed that he was merely reaping what he sowed.

Toddy opened his mouth but was unable to find the words to refute.

Just then, Adam's car emerged.

As the car came to a halt, Kendall said to Toddy, "I'm going to dinner with my dad, so I'll have to end the conversation here. Goodbye, Mr. Heller."

Toddy said nothing, and he watched as she breezily turned around and got into Adam's car. Adam then rolled down the windows and nodded at him as a greeting.

After the car started moving again, Kendall let out a sigh and said to Adam, "Toddy is still able to affect Emma's emotions. Earlier, she purposely held Roger's arm, both to provoke Toddy and to take revenge."

As an outsider, she could see everything clearly, and she was worried for Roger.

"I've heard of what happened between Miss Finley and Mr. Heller. She liked him for many years, and even though she says she's completely given up on him, it would still take some time for her to let him go. To be honest, I don't approve of Roger pursuing Emma at this time—it makes him an easy target to become Mr. Heller's replacement, and he'll easily get hurt. He's an honest man, and he doesn't have that much room for mind games."

After a pause, Kendall said, "Although Roger is an honest man, he won't hesitate to take action the moment he has his heart set on something. To be honest, I told Emma this and introduced her to Nell, but I didn't expect Roger to fall for her instead."

"Kendall, a person's feelings are complicated. The only thing we can do is to keep an eye on him, and nothing else."

Adam comforted her with his experience as an elder, "You don't have to worry about Roger. After all, no one knows what will happen tomorrow. Perhaps Miss Finley might end up falling for him and choose him in the end."

Toddy had hurt Emma too much in the past, and not everyone's feelings could be mended after they were broken once. Sometimes, once something was lost, it was gone forever, and no amount of regret would bring it back. Who else was to blame for not knowing to cherish what they had when it was still theirs?

"I'll just see how things go. I still want the people around me to be happy, whether it's my brother or my friends, and I want them to find their happiness as I did."

Adam said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm sure they'll all find their happiness. By the way, you haven't been coming home recently. How about you come back with Master Dylan and stay over this weekend? Your mom's been thinking about it every day, but she doesn't want to disturb you and Master Dylan working either."
