Chapter 638
Chapter 638
The dreams started out well. Kendall had her husband and baby by her side. She had a happy family. Just then, everything changed. Dylan and her baby disappeared like a puff of smoke, and she was plunged into the scene of a car crash. She thought it was a scene from her past life, but then she realized it wasn't. She was running straight to the scene in this dream.
"Daddy! Mommy!" she shouted. Is this a scene from my past life? Kelly had called me all of a sudden to inform me about the accident and told me to go to the hospital.
That day, the Whittles were surprisingly agreeable. When they were told of the accident, they asked Jackson to go with her to the hospital. She called Kelly a few times on the way, asking about her parents' condition, but Kelly refused to talk. All she told Kendall was to get to the hospital. When she finally made it there, she was told that her parents had died when they were taken to the hospital. The doctor tried to save them, but alas, the efforts were all for naught.
Kendall fainted as soon as she heard the news. When she woke up, Jackson had taken her back to the Whittle Residence. He informed her that Kelly would take care of the aftermath and told Kendall to get some rest. He also told her that it was an accident. Her parents were heading out to attend their friend's gathering but were smashed by a truck on their way there. The truck driver was fine, but her parents didn't survive.
Kendall cried for a long time back then, yet she steeled herself to take care of the funeral. Jackson stayed with her all the way. With Kelly's help, they buried their parents in their final resting places and claimed their recompense from the driver and insurance company. Kelly gave it all to her, but Kendall didn't care. Her parents were gone, and money couldn't buy them back.
Their deaths came too suddenly, and she relied on Jackson for emotional support. Ever since they got
married, she had been staying in the Whittle Residence, giving all her time to Jackson. She never cared about the business and had spent her days doing nothing. When she finally got over her sorrow, Kelly decided to drop the act and destroy her.
"Daddy… Mommy!" Kendall kept calling out to her parents in her sleep. No, this isn't my past life. I wasn't even at the scene back then. So… does that mean this is what happens in this life? I still can't change their fate even though I was reborn.
"Kendall… Kendall." Dylan patted her cheek to snap her out of it.
Kendall woke up soon after. Noticing the worry in her husband's eyes, she shot up and dove into his embrace. "I'm scared, darling."
"Another nightmare? Is this about the baby again?"
"No. It's about my parents. I saw them getting into a car crash," Kendall said, shivering from fear. "In my past dream, they, too, died from a car crash, but I wasn't at the scene. But I was at the scene in the dream I had just now. This might be an omen. If I was at the scene, it must have meant I was with them. And I rarely went anywhere with them, except for the road trip tomorrow. What if that's a prophecy? I think we should just stay home tomorrow. And my folks should do that, too."
After the rebirth, the only wish Kendall had was to keep the company in their family's hands and prevent her parents' deaths. Now that she was slowly realizing her wishes, she would not let Kelly kill them again. "In my dream, Kelly was the one who planned the car crash. She told me before I died. I recorded it with my phone, but I didn't use it. The baby's death hit me hard. And after that, I got into a car crash and died. It was my biggest regret. I should've taken revenge for my folks. I bet Kelly and
Jackson had been celebrating after my death since nobody would go after them anymore. Nobody would know they murdered a family. It was so unfair. Kelly killed a family, yet she could live well." Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Kendall…" She's getting really confused. Dylan hugged her tightly. "Calm down. That was just a dream. It's not real. Your folks are alive and healthy. And my men are keeping an eye on Kelly. We'll know if she's up to something. It will be fine."
Kendall grabbed his shirt and insisted, "That dream was a prophecy. We must keep a closer eye on her, just in case. But even so, she could've used her phone or computer to hire a killer, and your men couldn't have possibly known that, right?"
Hmm, Kendall has a point, Dylan thought to himself.
"No, no. I need to get up bright and early and tell my folks to stay indoors. I've got to avoid that car crash."
Dylan kissed her before saying, "Alright. We'll stay home, then. Or we can go to my place. They've never seen the Coleman Mansion, anyway."
"You still have to drive for that. Your house isn't exactly close. No cars. Not going anywhere. We're staying in."
"Alright, alright. We'll stay in. Calm down. I'll tell your folks tomorrow." Dylan didn't want Kendall going anywhere, either. She was pregnant, after all. However, he couldn't do it after she promised to take her whole family on an outing. Reluctantly, he said yes, but now that she had this nightmare, he had a reason to keep her in the house.
"Keep a very close eye on Kelly. She must be up to something. She's still in touch with Rosemi, isn't she? I think she's going to use Rosemi to kill us. Maybe Rosemi's the one planning this car crash."
In her previous life, Kelly was the one in control of the company because of the lack of competition. Still, she killed Adam and Charlotte. Kendall was sure Kelly would kill her parents this time because she was competing with Kelly over the company. And her parents' relationship with Kelly got tense. Kelly would never accept the reality of getting kicked out. If her parents were to die without leaving a will, Kelly would receive a huge amount of inheritance by law.
She was raised by the Parkers. Even after they knew Kelly wasn't their own daughter, they still signed the adoption papers, and that gave her the legal right to inherit some of the Parkers' wealth. Now that Kendall had Dylan by her side, Kelly might just take a step back and split the inheritance in half. Not the best offer, but that was the best Kelly could get. "Rosemi hates my guts. She won't blame herself for her downfall. It's always someone else." Kendall knew Rosemi well—after all, Rosemi was her mother- in-law in her previous life.
