Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 286

"Where are you heading?"

When Benjamin saw his sister approaching, he alighted from the car and motioned to the driver to park it off.

He lightly patted his sister's forehead as he smiled. "You are the Zorn Family's precious daughter and you should act like it; unlike some people who wear the crown of a wealthy daughter but act like a country bumpkin, it's a disgrace."

He was implying Kendall.

"Well, that's just Kendall's true personality."

"Are you feeling ill, Yasmine?" Benjamin asked after a brief silence.

He quickly touched her forehead. Her body temperature is normal though.

Why is she siding with Kendall?

"I'm not sick, Benjamin. Dramas aside, I must admit that I admire her demeanor. Anyway, are you done with your work? Just rest well on weekends and continue your work on Monday instead."

"I'm alright. Where are you going now?" He smiled in response.

"I'm going to the Mendelsons."

"Oh. Are you going over empty-handed?" He snorted.

"Should I get Frank a flower bouquet from the florist?" she inquired, blinking.

She discovered that Kendall had previously sent Dylan a bouquet.

If Dylan enjoyed it, Frank possibly would too.

After all, these two men were both of the same species.

"Wait a minute, I'll have Rico bring the gifts over," Benjamin said while laughing.

He then called his driver and asked him to deliver the gifts he had purchased.

"These are the gifts I intended to give Frank, but I have yet to enter the Mendelsons Residence. I guess you can send them on my behalf."

"Is Frank not at home?"

"He is, but since he didn't want to see me, his housekeeper made up an excuse and said that he left home early."

Initially, Benjamin summoned Frank to discuss the Mendelsons' all-out assault on the Zorn Family.

Though they had joined hands and worked together in private before, the Mendelsons abruptly turned the gun on the Zorns, launching a full-scale attack that left Benjamin stunned and unsure where the Zorns had offended Frank.

Targeting the Zorns was analogous to targeting the Colemans for the Mendelsons.

The Coleman Family openly defended the Parker Corporation because of Dylan's relationship with Kendall. On the other hand, the Colemans attacked the Mendelsons for stealing several large transactions away from the Parkers.

The Zorns were second only to the Colemans in Orapolis, ranking alongside the Mendelsons. As much as the Zorns were powerful, wealthy, and had a large number of friendly troops, they could not stand up to the combined blows of the Mendelsons and Colemans.

As such, Benjamin had recently been preoccupied with improving his relationship with the Parkers and the Mendelsons.

Dylan and Kendall are to blame for everything! That damn couple hid their marriage from everyone, including me! So, I guess I'm the bad one now for not knowing, which inadvertently offended Dylan.

"If Frank didn't want to see you, would he see me then?"

Yasmine was confident at first, but she felt compelled to back down.

"Yes, I believe so," Benjamin replied while smiling and lovingly stroking his sister's hair.

Although he could not just barge into the Mendelson Residence, but she could. They were the one who

spoiled Yasmine in the first place, so it would be normal for her to do so.

"Did Frank do anything to our corporation, Benjamin?" she inquired.

"Don't worry about this. All you have to do is get closer to Frank."

The Mendelsons would no longer target the Zorns as long as Yasmine impressed Frank's sinister cold heart.

On the other hand, she was aware of her lack of business knowledge and was unable to assist her elder brother. Hence, she could only fulfill Benjamin's requests and lavish gifts to Frank.

On her way to the Mendelsons, Yasmine was contemplating on how to persuade their bodyguards to let her in.

She was surprised when someone opened the gate just as her car was parked at the entrance of the Mendelson Residence, revealing one of Franks' personal bodyguards.

"Good day, Miss Zorn."

The bodyguard approached her car. As Yasmine rolled down her windows, the bodyguard respectfully bowed and said, "Miss Zorn, our Master has been waiting for you for quite some time. Please come with me."

Initially shocked, she then gradually became suspicious as a thousand guesses flashed through her mind.

Something isn't quite right.

How long did Frank wait for her?

This is unusual.

Didn't he just reject me expressly?

Anyway, it's great that I am invited into the Mendelson Residence without having to break in. This will save me a lot of time and trouble.

Yasmine returned a smile, thanked the bodyguard, and followed him into the house.

Exiting the car, which had been parked in the designated spot, she then carried the bags of gifts with her.

"Here, let me, Miss Zorn." The bodyguard kindly helped her with the gifts.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome."

In the opulent hall stood Frank, who had been waiting for her arrival.

He was standing by the window with the easel facing him, so Yasmine could not see what he was drawing.

Sketched on the paper were still babies, but they seemed realistic thanks to his skills.

"Miss Zorn has arrived, Master."

"I got it."

Frank simply raised his gaze to Yasmine before returning to his drawing.

After placing her gifts on the coffee table, the bodyguard quietly exited the hall.

She took a scan around and noticed there were no servants. According to rumors, Frank disliked hiring maids and preferred to hire men servants instead, just like Dylan. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

At the very least, Dylan's residence had Kendall whereas Frank had absolutely no women in his household.

Yasmine was not one to be shy and polite. She walked over to Frank's drawing after the bodyguard had left.

He was drawing a baby around seven or eight months old and they were undoubtedly adorable. However, she noticed that the drawing of the baby looked a little familiar. Not overthinking it, she brushed it off as many drawings of babies ought to be similar anyway.

"President Mendelson, I can't believe you're so gifted. This little baby you're drawing is so realistic and adorable that I want to reach out and hug them," Yasmine praised Frank sincerely.

The man, on the other hand, did not respond.

"Why did you draw a baby, President Mendelson?"

He remained deafeningly silent.

"You adore children, right? You're no longer young. You can become a father next year if you marry early. Your child must be as adorable as the baby you draw since you have strong genes," she continued.

At the thought that their baby would resemble both her and Frank, she was fantasizing the day where she would brag about her adorable baby in front of Kendall, who would never become a mother in her life.

In the midst of her daydream, she looked at Frank's drawing and realized that the baby reminded her of herself; no wonder the drawing appeared familiar.

"I like children, particularly daughters." Frank finished the baby's portrait as he stood up straight to examine his work carefully before replying to Yasmine.

He preferred daughters because he and Kendall had a daughter.

"I'd also like to become a father the following year."

He wanted his baby to return to him and Kendall's side as soon as possible.
