Chapter 16

Kelly was speechless.

"Look, Kelly. Although Mom and Dad want me to see you as my elder sister, I'm sure you know that I
don't see you that way. So, stop bossing me around as if you're really my elder sister!" Kendall bent
down and pressed her fingers against Kelly's chin before observing her enemy from her past life. It was
an undeniable that Kelly was a gorgeous woman—that explained why Jackson was so in love with her.
Kelly raised her hand to smack Kendall's hand away before she used the couch as support to get
herself off the ground. "You're repeating your old mistakes, Kendall. I'll tell Dad about this when he's
back. You may think that I have no right to teach you a lesson, but I'm sure Dad has the right to do it,
huh?"

Their father valued Parker Corporation's livelihood more than Kelly did. He wouldn't let it slip so easily if
he found out that Kendall had offended Dylan one time after another. Kendall frowned before she
responded in a mocking tone. "I knew it! You're such a snitch. Do you think I don't know what you told
Dad? You told him to let me pick on my own when the Colemans came to ask for marriage, right?"

In her past life, Kendall had desperately wanted to marry Jackson in her past life. How could she
possibly pick Dylan if she had a choice? Kelly's intention had been for Kendall to offend the Coleman
Family and Dylan himself. "If I didn't tell Dad about that, he would have just agreed to the Coleman
Family's request for an arranged marriage. If that happened, you would have had to spend the rest of
your life living like a widow even though you had a husband. I'm doing this all for you. It's fine if you
don't recognize my efforts, but I can't believe you're doing this time. Since when did you turn into such
an ungrateful woman, Kendall?" Kelly hissed.

Before Kendall could respond, footsteps sounded from outside the house. Soon enough, Adam entered
the hall and strode toward the two ladies. "What happened, Kelly?" Adam was aware that Kelly had



rushed home from the office. He had made his way home soon after that as he thought that something
had happened. "What's up with your face, Kelly? Who hit you?" Adam quickly noticed the redness and
swelling on Kelly's cheek, and his expression darkened immediately. "Tell me who was it who bullied
you, Kelly. I'll teach them a lesson. How dare they hit my daughter!"

"It's fine, Dad. I just hit something by accident," Kelly explained hastily.

"Do you think I'm blind? The fingerprints are so obvious—someone clearly hit you." Adam rubbed his
fingers against Kelly's cheek with a pained expression on his face. "That b*stard really didn't hold back
with his slap!"

Cameron looked like he wanted to say something, but Kelly shot him a glare to make him seal his lips.
Kendall hated how Kelly was trying to act like the good sister in front of her father, so she decided to
own up to her doings. "I'm that b*stard you speak of, Dad."

Adam turned around to stare at his daughter in shock. "Did you say that you were the one who hit
Kelly?" Adam couldn't believe what he heard. Ever since they brought Kendall back home, she had
always been mature and thoughtful. She was a reserved girl who seemed rather shy at times and didn't
look like the type who would hit someone!

"I hit her," Kendall uttered honestly.

"Kendall and I had a tiny argument, Dad. She only slapped me and kicked me as she was blinded by
rage," Kelly said. She made it seem like she was the bigger person, but she always found a way to
snitch on Kendall simultaneously. Adam's expression turned grim when he heard Kelly's words.
"Regardless of the reason, you're still wrong for hitting someone, Kendall! I want you to apologize to
your sister now! You're disappointing me!"



"Dad, I can apologize to her if she apologizes to me. If she hadn't gone overboard and if she hadn't
lectured me, I wouldn't have hit her." Kendall refused to admit that she had already wanted to slap Kelly
long ago.

"Kelly's your sister. You're not going to die from receiving her criticism. It's fine if you don't acknowledge
her words, but how could you hit her? How did that man and woman educate you in the past? How did
you turn into someone like this?!" Adam was instinctively biased toward Kelly since she was the heir
that he had nurtured all along. He naturally trusted and cherished her more. Even though Kendall was
his biological daughter, she was still someone who entered the family later—Adam couldn't be fair to
both the girls.

Kendall gazed at her father with a wronged expression on her face. Even though she hadn't been close
to him in her past life, he wasn't as biased toward Kelly back then. However, now that she had decided
to care for her family in this life, it was saddening to find out that her father was such a biased man.
Could some people and things have changed because of my reincarnation?

"I only scolded Kendall for her own good, Dad. She kept offending Master Dylan, so I was afraid that
Master Dylan would do something bad to her. That was why I felt the need to lecture her." Kelly
explained the reason for her scolding.

After hearing Kelly's words, Adam was angrier than ever. He gave Kendall a tight slap without any
hesitation. Smack! Kendall felt his palm against her face. The spot where he hit her turned red and
swollen instantly. There was even some blood on the corner of her mouth. That was how powerful
Adam's slap was.

"Kelly had accompanied you to the Coleman Family to apologize after you heartlessly rejected the



marriage. That was why they hadn't caused any trouble. Yet, you're offending Master Dylan again. Do
you think he's a saint? How many times do you think he can forgive you? Kelly's doing all of this for
your own good. How dare you hit her when she was just trying to educate you?" Adam panicked the
moment he imagined Dylan's ice-cold face in his head.

It was reasonable for Kendall to reject the marriage since the Colemans knew that Dylan was infertile.
However, now that the marriage issue had been resolved, Kendall would be asking for death if she
were to offend Dylan. She was practically creating enemies for the Parker Corporation!

"I didn't offend Master Dylan, Dad!" Kendall wiped the blood off the corner of her mouth before she
began to defend herself. "I don't care whether you guys trust me. But the fact is that I didn't offend
Master Dylan today."

"How dare you say that? Why didn't you stay away from him when he appeared?" Kelly hissed.

Adam pointed his finger at Kendall while criticizing her. "He already dislikes you, yet you insist on
staying around to infuriate him further. I didn't know you were such a dumb woman, Kendall. Where's
your brain? Why don't you consider your family before acting? Do you want the Parker Corporation to
go bankrupt?"

"You should stop scolding Kendall, Dad. She grew up in the countryside, so she probably doesn't
understand the severity of her actions." Kelly tugged her father's arm to stop him from pointing at
Kendall. She sounded like she was trying to help Kendall, but she was also degrading Kendall at the
same time.

"I don't need your pretentious care, Kelly. So what if I grew up in the countryside? Is that shameful to



you?" Kendall hissed.

Smack! Adam sent another slap onto Kendall's other cheek. Now, both her cheeks were equally
swollen.

"This is too much. Grab me a cane, Kelly. I need to punish her the Parker way! I will teach my daughter
a lesson since it seems like her past caregivers had failed to do so!" The Parkers' way of punishment
was to whip someone with a cane with thorns. One could only understand how it felt after being hit by
that specific cane.

"Dad," Kelly protested.

"I'm ordering you to take the cane!" he growled. Kelly had no choice but to bring the cane while trying
to calm her father down. "Kendall's still immature, Dad. Let's teach her with more patience. You
shouldn't use the cane. She's 26 now—how will she face the public if she gets punished with this
cane?"

Adam grabbed the cane over before preparing to hit Kendall. "Sir. Sir. He's here… He's coming!" A
maid charged into the room hastily. Unfortunately, she happened to interrupt Adam right before he
could hit Kendall.

Kelly was annoyed by this disruption, although she didn't show it on her face. "Who's here?"

The maid pointed in the direction of the front door while stuttering. "M-M-Master… Master D-D-Dylan is
here!"
