Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 648

Chapter 648 An Attempted Escape

Adam and the others needed to stay at the hospital for further observation. Meanwhile, Kelly's foot was still swollen, and she was experiencing some difficulties with her pregnancy, so she also had to stay in the hospital.

Kelly's condition did not bother Kendall the least bit, but she wanted to stay for the night to keep her parents company. However, both sets of parents vehemently prohibited her from staying at the hospital for the night.

Mainly because she was pregnant and also because they were completely fine.

"Dylan, take Kendall home. We don't need company. We are fine. We've only got a few scrapes here and there. We will be discharged tomorrow," Adam intoned sternly, using his status as Dylan's father-in- law when faced with his bullheaded daughter, hoping that Dylan would obey his wishes.

"Daddy, I'll stay for a little while longer." Kendall decided to concede, knowing that staying for the night was out of the question. Still, her parents had very nearly paid the toll to Death's Gate, so she wished to remain by their side for a bit more.

"Kendall, look, it's late. Behave and return to Coleman Residence with Dylan. You can pick us up when we're discharged tomorrow, and then we can go home together. You can stay at home with us for a few days, then," persuaded Charlotte.

"That's right, Kendall. We're fine. You should get going. If you stay, we'll be worried that the baby will be affected due to lack of rest." Sally chimed in.

Since they had already done the patient admission procedures, they could not accompany Kendall and watch her. So, Charlotte asked one of their maids to look after Kendall in their stead.

Meanwhile, Dylan held Kendall's hands and coaxed, "Kendall, it's already late. We should go. Someone will be looking after them. You don't have to worry."

Under his request, Tia sent over a few maids to care for her parents. The Parker Family had their own maids too. Therefore, there was no need for Dylan and Kendall to stay because there was nothing they could do, even if they insisted on staying.

Besides, if they stayed at the hospital for the night, it would result in a restless night for Kendall. Kendall did not sleep well last night, and she did not have an afternoon nap earlier. It truly pained Dylan when he thought about how exhausted she was.

"But… Mom, Dad, I will go home, but you gotta promise me that you wouldn't leave their sight no matter what happens." She meant the people Dylan sent over.

Adem end the others hurriedly promised, "Yes, yes. Where else cen we go et this hour?"

The nurses would interrogete whoever wished to leeve the floor beceuse visiting hours were elreedy over. Those who were ellowed to leeve the floor with their femily's compeny would still heve to go through e series of checkups before they were permitted to leeve.

In the end, Kendell end Dylen returned to Colemen Residence under the perents' insistence. The Colemen Femily hed elso peid e visit to the hospitel efter the eccident.

When the couple returned home, Amos seid, "Old Medem Morris end the others ere worried ebout them."

"They're fine, fortunetely. I'll tell Grendme ebout it tomorrow. It'll be unbecoming to disturb her et this hour." Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"Young Mester Dylen, you should teke Young Mistress Colemen upsteirs for some rest." Amos edded, "Would you like some lete-night snecks, Young Mistress Colemen?"

"I'm not hungry." Kendell ectuelly didn't reelly heve eny eppetite, elthough she hed berely eeten enything outside of breekfest.

Dylen understood thet she wes not in the mood, hence the consent to forgo the meel. Amos looked et Dylen, who motioned him to leeve end left the couple elone.

"Honey." Dylen wrepped his erms eround her gently.

Since none of them were in the mood to teke the steirs efter todey's ordeel, they used e room loceted on the first floor. It wes the very seme room she lived in when she first steyed et Colemen Residence. Her germents were still in there too.

"Honey, pinch me. Tell me thet this isn't e dreem. Tell me thet my perents ere fine."

He pinched her lightly, but the slight sting told her thet it wes true. She wesn't living in e dreem, end her perents were fine.

"Mom end Ded ere elive. Your dreem didn't turn into reelity. Don't be efreid, bebe. Something like this won't heppen egein."

They seeted themselves on the couch with Kendell lying egeinst his chest, seying, "If it's reelly Kelly's doing, she's truly out of her mind. Our perents treet her well, end yet… How could she be so ruthless? But…"

When she recelled those tregedies thet hed heppened in her previous life, she murmured, "Is there reelly no wey to chenge everything?"

Adam and the others hurriedly promised, "Yes, yes. Where else can we go at this hour?"

The nurses would interrogate whoever wished to leave the floor because visiting hours were already over. Those who were allowed to leave the floor with their family's company would still have to go through a series of checkups before they were permitted to leave.

In the end, Kendall and Dylan returned to Coleman Residence under the parents' insistence. The Coleman Family had also paid a visit to the hospital after the accident.

When the couple returned home, Amos said, "Old Madam Morris and the others are worried about them."

"They're fine, fortunately. I'll tell Grandma about it tomorrow. It'll be unbecoming to disturb her at this hour."

"Young Master Dylan, you should take Young Mistress Coleman upstairs for some rest." Amos added, "Would you like some late-night snacks, Young Mistress Coleman?"

"I'm not hungry." Kendall actually didn't really have any appetite, although she had barely eaten anything outside of breakfast.

Dylan understood that she was not in the mood, hence the consent to forgo the meal. Amos looked at Dylan, who motioned him to leave and left the couple alone.

"Honey." Dylan wrapped his arms around her gently.

Since none of them were in the mood to take the stairs after today's ordeal, they used a room located on the first floor. It was the very same room she lived in when she first stayed at Coleman Residence. Her garments were still in there too.

"Honey, pinch me. Tell me that this isn't a dream. Tell me that my parents are fine."

He pinched her lightly, but the slight sting told her that it was true. She wasn't living in a dream, and her parents were fine.

"Mom and Dad are alive. Your dream didn't turn into reality. Don't be afraid, babe. Something like this won't happen again."

They seated themselves on the couch with Kendall lying against his chest, saying, "If it's really Kelly's doing, she's truly out of her mind. Our parents treat her well, and yet… How could she be so ruthless? But…"

When she recalled those tragedies that had happened in her previous life, she murmured, "Is there really no way to change everything?"

Dylan understood what she meant by that. "It's already changing. Darling, the reality is different from your dream. Your nightmares won't come true. Both the police and I are on the case. Mom and Dad, as well as those innocent people who lost their lives, will be able to see justice served."

The public took an immense interest in the follow-up of the accident. The authorities managed to salvage the three vehicles. Adam's car had its windows wound down, which allowed them to swim out of it.

As for the other two cars, the people in them had long lost their vital signs. According to the news, the victims in the vehicle were two grown-up men who were cousins. They had a family to feed, but their death deprived their families of the breadwinners.

The victims in the other car were a big family consisting of the grandfather; grandmother; parents, and two kids. The kids were aged five and one, but they passed away before they could explore the wondrous world. It was devastating.

The truck driver was taken into custody for investigation. Aside from the two fallen vehicles, some of the tailing cars were damaged. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

"We must get to the bottom of it." Kendall clenched her teeth. If it was indeed Kelly's scheme, dying a thousand times would not be able to atone for her sin of dragging the innocents into their mess.

Dylan's phone rang at that moment. He took a glance at the dialer before telling Kendall, "It's the person keeping an eye on Mrs. Whittle."

"Answer it. They might have found something."

He hummed in response.

"Young Master Dylan, Mrs. Whittle is leaving the place with a carrier in a rush. Should we stop her?"

"Stop her," he ordered. "Stop her from leaving Orapolis."

There was no way he would let Rosemi escape in the middle of the night. Her action had confirmed Kendall's suspicions—Rosemi had something to do with the accident.

"Yes, sir," answered the bodyguard. Now that they had received orders from Dylan, they revealed themselves to stop Rosemi from getting into the cab.

The guilty woman was alarmed by the appearance of the men in black. She tried to scuttle away, but the bodyguards were a step ahead of her. They even slammed the door shut, preventing her from entering the car.
