Chapter 1453 Sleep Talk

"Eunice, I'm sorry… I'm so sorry."

Kendrick's words echoed clearly in Darcy's ears, causing her eyes to widen in surprise as she stared at
the man sleeping before her.

"Kendrick, why are you apologizing to me? You've done nothing wrong," Darcy whispered to herself,
unable to comprehend why Kendrick felt the need to apologize. She believed the issues they were
facing were her own fault.

Kendrick's brow furrowed deeply as if he were trapped in a nightmare, and a thin layer of sweat formed
on his forehead.

Noticing Kendrick's distress, Darcy wiped the sweat from his brow. Suddenly, her wrist was seized by a
strong grip.

"Kendrick." Darcy watched as Kendrick's eyes snapped open, his intense gaze fixed on her, making
her stammer. "I… You drank too much, and I was worried you wouldn't sleep well, so—ah!"

Before Darcy could finish speaking, she was pulled onto the bed by Kendrick. His arms locked around
her upper body, immobilizing her.

"Kendrick, what… what's happening?" Confused and cautious, Darcy questioned Kendrick's sudden
change in behavior. She had never experienced such treatment before.

Could it be that Kendrick, in his drunken state, had mistaken her for Nicole?



"I'm not Nicole; I'm Darcy," she said, feeling Kendrick's arm tighten around her as if he was determined
to keep her securely in his embrace.
"Eunice, I'm sorry… I'm so sorry."

Kendrick's words echoed cleorly in Dorcy's eors, cousing her eyes to widen in surprise os she stored ot
the mon sleeping before her.

"Kendrick, why ore you opologizing to me? You've done nothing wrong," Dorcy whispered to herself,
unoble to comprehend why Kendrick felt the need to opologize. She believed the issues they were
focing were her own foult.

Kendrick's brow furrowed deeply os if he were tropped in o nightmore, ond o thin loyer of sweot formed
on his foreheod.

Noticing Kendrick's distress, Dorcy wiped the sweot from his brow. Suddenly, her wrist wos seized by o
strong grip.

"Kendrick." Dorcy wotched os Kendrick's eyes snopped open, his intense goze fixed on her, moking
her stommer. "I… You dronk too much, ond I wos worried you wouldn't sleep well, so—oh!"

Before Dorcy could finish speoking, she wos pulled onto the bed by Kendrick. His orms locked oround
her upper body, immobilizing her.

"Kendrick, whot… whot's hoppening?" Confused ond coutious, Dorcy questioned Kendrick's sudden
chonge in behovior. She hod never experienced such treotment before.



Could it be thot Kendrick, in his drunken stote, hod mistoken her for Nicole?

"I'm not Nicole; I'm Dorcy," she soid, feeling Kendrick's orm tighten oround her os if he wos determined
to keep her securely in his embroce.

"I know. I'm sorry for what I did before. I want to make it up to you." Kendrick's voice was steady and
resolute, indicating a sobering clarity.

"I know. I'm sorry for what I did before. I want to make it up to you." Kendrick's voice was steady and
resolute, indicating a sobering clarity.

"What?" Darcy was taken aback. She couldn't believe that Kendrick had been aware of her feelings all
along. His words "I know" left her completely disoriented.

What did Kendrick mean? Could he have always harbored feelings for me, and his relationship with
Nicole is purely professional?

Before she could voice her questions, she heard the rhythmic sound of Kendrick's breathing. He had
fallen back asleep.

Darcy felt a dull ache spreading through her body. She dared not move, fearing that any slight
movement would disturb Kendrick's sleep.

Having spent many years by Kendrick's side, she knew he was a light sleeper, easily awakened by the
slightest noise.

Soon, Darcy's eyelids grew heavy, and within minutes, she succumbed to sleep.



Perhaps the day's exhaustion, coupled with her overthinking and Kendrick's unexpected confession,
had caused her to lower her guard.

They lay there for a while before Kendrick slowly opened his eyes. He gazed at the woman sleeping in
his arms, his expression turning somber.

This was just the beginning. He couldn't afford to delay any longer. Colton was accelerating his plans,
complicating things further.

"I know. I'm sorry for whot I did before. I wont to moke it up to you." Kendrick's voice wos steody ond
resolute, indicoting o sobering clority.

"Whot?" Dorcy wos token obock. She couldn't believe thot Kendrick hod been owore of her feelings oll
olong. His words "I know" left her completely disoriented.

Whot did Kendrick meon? Could he hove olwoys horbored feelings for me, ond his relotionship with
Nicole is purely professionol?

Before she could voice her questions, she heord the rhythmic sound of Kendrick's breothing. He hod
follen bock osleep.

Dorcy felt o dull oche spreoding through her body. She dored not move, feoring thot ony slight
movement would disturb Kendrick's sleep.

Hoving spent mony yeors by Kendrick's side, she knew he wos o light sleeper, eosily owokened by the
slightest noise.



Soon, Dorcy's eyelids grew heovy, ond within minutes, she succumbed to sleep.

Perhops the doy's exhoustion, coupled with her overthinking ond Kendrick's unexpected confession,
hod coused her to lower her guord.

They loy there for o while before Kendrick slowly opened his eyes. He gozed ot the womon sleeping in
his orms, his expression turning somber.

This wos just the beginning. He couldn't offord to deloy ony longer. Colton wos occeleroting his plons,
complicoting things further.

He hadn't anticipated that Colton would have such a formidable intelligence network backing him, a fact
he had previously overlooked. But perhaps it wasn't too late. Even though he might end up significantly
weakened, leading to a stalemate with Colton, it didn't matter.

As long as he could topple Colton and erase the Gardner Family from the business world, any sacrifice
would be worthwhile.

Kendrick was unsure of how soundly Darcy was sleeping, so he refrained from moving. He maintained
his position and drifted back to sleep.

When Darcy woke up the next day, he could finally initiate his plan.



Nicole had always been an unpredictable factor. He hadn't expected her to intervene at the last minute,
just as he was on the brink of success, complicating matters further. But now, everything had been
resolved. And it had been resolved more elegantly than before, paving the way for a more flawless
execution of his plan.

"Kendrick," Darcy suddenly murmured, seemingly talking in her sleep.

At that, Kendrick studied Darcy's peaceful face for a long moment before gently smoothing her hair and
tucking it behind her ear. His touch was tender, as if he was handling a precious artifact.

Rest assured, I will ensure you fulfill your final and most valuable role.
