Love Knows No Bounds

---

In the end, Kelly couldn't hold her pain in. "My stomach hurts. I'm pregnant."

Before they came to arrest her, the cops were informed that she was pregnant. So, they quickly took her to the hospital upon hearing her say her stomach hurt.

"Tell my folks, please. Tell them to go to the hospital," she pleaded.

The pain on her face seemed genuine, so Langley agreed to it and called Adam. When Kelly was taken to the hospital, the Parkers came, along with Sally and Nelson.

By then, Kelly was already bleeding and was taken into the emergency room right away. Nobody managed to see her, so they waited for the news. Everyone sat right outside the emergency room's entrance, conflicted gazes filling their eyes. Kendall was the only one standing, keeping some distance from everyone.

Eventually, someone came out of the emergency room, but nobody moved. The cops looked at them.

In the end, Kendall went ahead. "How is she, doctor?"

"She lost the child, so we performed a dilation and curettage on her."

Kendall froze before asking, "But her baby was already moving. How did this happen? She wasn't hurt."

"She was in a state of high anxiety and neglected the baby. It died from the lack of oxygen. If she had come to the hospital right after she noticed the changes in her fetus, we could've saved it."

A moment of silence later, Kendall said thank you to the doctor.

"The patient is agitated. She is unconscious at the moment, but she will most certainly stir up a storm once she wakes up. You should console her. She's still young. Once she heals up, she can have more children." Noticing the cops around, the doctor stopped talking.

Kendall thanked the doctor again. The baby she met in her past life did come back to Kelly, but he chose to leave halfway through. It was perhaps for the best. If he were born to a pair of criminals, his life would be filled with hardships. She prayed for the unborn child, hoping he could be born into a good family.

Kendall didn't wait for Kelly to wake up, and her parents didn't want her to stay either. They called Dylan to pick her up. That night, the couple sat on the swing in the backyard. Kendall leaned on Dylan's chest, staring at the moon in the heavens. "I had my revenge, but I gained no satisfaction."

Dylan thought she was immersed in her dream again, so he let her talk.

"I don't regret what I did, though. I did what I had to so that I could protect the ones I loved and myself. Whatever befell her today, she only has herself to blame."

Dylan kissed her cheek and said gently, "Indeed. It's not your fault. She chose this path, so she can't blame anyone else. You just did what you had to. Showing mercy to your enemies is an act of cruelty toward yourself." He thought Kendall should've gone harder. Kelly only found herself at a dead end because of his interference.

"That child is innocent… But it's a good thing he wasn't born." She sighed and touched her belly. "I still feel for the baby, though."

"Well, you said it's for the best that he wasn't born. So, don't think about it too much. And don't go to work for a while. Rest up. I'll handle everything else."

Kendall nodded and wrapped her arms around his waist. Now that Kelly had been arrested, Kendall's vengeance finally came to an end. In her past life, she couldn't bring Kelly and Jackson to face the music. She didn't do it either in this life, but she was indirectly involved, so it was considered revenge as well.

"I'm not going to work tomorrow. They can handle things for me. I'll stay with you and prepare for the wedding."

"Thank you, hubby."

Dylan pinched her cheek. "I don't like that. It's too formal."

Kendall smiled. "It's called decorum."

He leaned down. Before he pressed his lips against hers, he lovingly said, "You've tossed decorum out the window when you married me, and I prefer the wilder you. The real you." Before she could say anything, he kissed her on the lips. His love for her would not change, no matter what kind of woman she was. He would continue to love her until death did them part.
