Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 241

Raising her head, Yasmine asked in tears, "Benjamin, am I that worthless? Am I not as good as Kendall Parker?"

Benjamin lovingly wiped his sister's tears and comforted her. "Don't think that way. My sister is the best in the world. Dylan's the one that has a problem with his eyes since he can't see just how great you are." Then, he continued sarcastically, "Kendall Parker? Yasmine, you shouldn't compare yourself with a wench like her. You'll only lose your worth in doing so."

Having said that, Benjamin had never properly observed Kendall up until now. Should the chance present itself, he would like to meet the Young Mistress of the Coleman Family just to see what was so great about her that made Dylan marry her. He knew very well what kind of character Dylan was. Even if the man was disabled now, he would never so easily agree to a marriage. Even if the Coleman Family wanted the marriage, that would be Tilly's intention and not Dylan's. However, looking at what had happened today, he suspected that Kendall must have done something that gained Dylan's approval for the marriage.

"Yasmine, please don't cry anymore," Brian chimed in as well. "Benjamin's right. You should be thinking of Frank rather than Dylan right now." Then, he asked for a tissue from Benjamin and wiped his sister's tears while he said firmly, "Make this the last time you cry for that man. Never should you shed tears for him after today."

Although feelings of love were always hard to let go of, Yasmine had always been adaptable and knew when it was time to let go of things. Furthermore, her target was Frank right now. "But, I'll definitely make Kendall's life as hard as I can," she said in resentment.

"Yasmine, we should continue our talk in the car."

Since they were still in the area part of Coleman Empire Holdings, it wasn't safe for them to continue their conversation even if their bodyguards were with them. The average person wouldn't be able to grasp just how powerful Dylan was. Things would be fine if the man didn't make a move, but if he did, there would be nothing that was out of his reach. Even though Benjamin was two years older, he still had to pay courtesy to Dylan as he didn't dare go toe to toe with him.

Thanks to her brothers' consolation, Yasmine calmed down and followed them into Benjamin's car. Brian got behind the wheel, not allowing any of the bodyguards into the car with them.

"Benjamin, you promised me that you'll teach Parker Corporation a lesson. How is it going now?" Yasmine asked. "It would be best if you can just bankrupt them." Before Benjamin could answer, her attention turned to Brian. "Brian, please don't be too hard on me. Since Kelly is originally a child of the Woods Family and not the Parkers, the Parker Corporation may not be given to her in the end. If you want to please her, then after Benjamin has caused them to go bankrupt, you should step in and purchase the company and transfer it to her as a dowry. She'll definitely be grateful to you when you do so." NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Yasmine had thought business was a trivial matter. She thought that with Benjamin's promise to her, he would make Parker Corporation go into bankruptcy and saddle Kendall with debts.

"Yasmine." With slight helplessness in his actions, Benjamin stroked his sister's hair and said, "I will fulfill my promise to you. Since the Parker Corporation is negotiating several projects, I have already intercepted two big projects of theirs. I would have been able to take them all if only Dylan hadn't

officially declared their marriage." He didn't need to explain what happened next, as his sister would naturally understand what he was trying to say.

Spitefully, Yasmine asked, "Are those people that afraid of Coleman Empire Holdings?"

Benjamin stayed silent. In the industry, there weren't many who did not fear Dylan, Coleman Empire Holdings, and the Coleman Family. Just Dylan alone was enough to evoke fear in the people. Not to mention, there were still other prominent people in the Coleman Family. Although these prominent people weren't as finesse as Dylan, they were still very capable as they each had their respective specialties. As they varied in their specialties, they were at the top of their respective industry. Who wouldn't be afraid of such a family?

On the other hand, the Zorn Family had four factions as well and were also thriving. Although Benjamin had seven other siblings, they weren't as great as the Coleman Family. Moreover, the Zorn Family wasn't as united as the Coleman Family, as there was internal strife ongoing in their family. Right now, it was Benjamin's faction that was in charge. The other three factions might appear to obey them right now, but behind the scenes, they had taken many actions in trying to seize their power for themselves.

Furthermore, besides Benjamin and Brian, only the second and fifth brothers of theirs were competent, as the others were self-indulgent. Since it was already a great blessing for the family for these children to not drag the family's reputation into the mud, the chances of them cooperating in taking down the Coleman Family weren't as high as having a meteor strike taking away the lives of the prominent figures of the Coleman Family.

"Coleman Empire Holdings has already started coming after Zorn Holdings," Benjamin said softly.

When Benjamin found out that Coleman Empire Holdings had the intention to come after them, he was

puzzled. It was only when Dylan announced his marriage to Kendall did he realize what he had done— he had stirred up the hornet's nest in order to help his sister.

"Benjamin, don't tell me that we must be afraid of the Coleman Family even though we have Zorn Holdings?" Yasmine had always thought that with how powerful her family was, they were on an equal footing as the Coleman Family.

"Yasmine, you don't understand just how things go in business. Let me put it this way. If we were to go all out against that family, they only need half their power to handle us."

Yasmine went silent at her brother's explanation.

Lovingly stroking his sister's hair, Benjamin said softly, "Yasmine, don't you worry. I'll make sure those that hurt you pay for what they did. Since our elders are still around, the Coleman Family wouldn't be too reckless for the time being. So, you can just go do whatever you want to do, as long as it doesn't involve hurting others. I'll help you out. However, I can't approve of you continuing to be involved in this matter. When our family has a connection with the Mendelson Family by marriage, it would solidify our power. By that time, we needn't be afraid of the Coleman Family."

Frank had always been Dylan's rival. With how powerful he was, the Zorn Family would become formidable as well by joining up with the Mendelson Family.

"No matter how outstanding Dylan is, he's disabled right now. However, Frank is different. He's still fine and dandy. Once you get married to him and bear his child, your standing in the family would be solid. By that time, Frank would treat you as his treasure. The best way to have your revenge against someone who doesn't appreciate you is to live much better than him."

Benjamin persuaded his sister. He didn't want his sister to continue drowning in sorrow because of Dylan. Moreover, he didn't want to take such a big move by going against the Coleman Family right now.

"Frank is a handsome man as well. Yasmine, you should listen to Benjamin and focus your time on Frank. Once you're the Madam of the Mendelson Family and have a healthy son, you can have him in your arms while you show him off to Kendall. She'll definitely be green with envy by that time."

Brian was aware of the disparity in power between his family and the Colemans, which was why he agreed with his brother's suggestion in taking a step back right now, as it wasn't time to go against the Coleman Family right now.

As for Coleman Empire Holdings coming after Zorn Holdings, Benjamin had had several meetings with the higher-ups and decided to invite both Dylan and Adam for a meal to explain that it was all a misunderstanding and to apologize to the two. By doing so, he hoped that Coleman Empire Holdings would stop going after them until they were left with nothing but bones.

After a brief moment of silence, Yasmine said sullenly, "It might be troublesome to pursue Frank right now. I could still meet him the first time I went to his company, but after that, I wasn't even allowed into the company. Ugh, it makes me angry just thinking about it."

Back then, even when Dylan didn't want to meet Yasmine, she could still be allowed entry into Coleman Empire Holdings. Just by this comparison, Frank was much more indifferent toward her than Dylan ever was.
