Chapter 532
The Parker Corporation's building wasn't as tall as that of Coleman Empire Holdings, and Kelly's office wasn't at the top. With her perfect eyesight, she could look down from her office and see everything clearly.
Her adoptive parents were taking Kendall to a cocktail party, and she supposed that Dylan was tagging along because he loved following Kendall around.
In the past, whenever her parents attended a party, they would take Kelly along. She would be lying to herself if she said she wasn't jealous.
All the things that belonged to her gradually fell into Kendall's hands. There was no denying Kelly was burning with jealousy.
Truth was, she was aware that her parents were going to attend a cocktail party and she had offered to keep them company.
However, her father turned her down, saying that she shouldn't attend a cocktail party since she was pregnant. Even if she didn't drink any alcohol, the presence of a large number of people and the smoke coming from cigarettes were hazardous to her child.
Although her father was well-meaning, she was still resentful. Presently, she sat down in front of her desk and called Brian.
When the call was connected, she asked sweetly, "Have you gotten off work, Brian? Why don't we
have dinner together?"
"I'm on my way to your company."
Jacqueline had repeatedly warned Brian against contacting Kelly, but they would still meet up in secret. It wasn't like Jacqueline could keep an eye on her son all the time. Since they had to be stealthy, it brought them a sense of excitement whenever they met. Whenever there was a chance, they would make out with each other.
Other than during the early stage of pregnancy, Kelly rarely suffered from morning sickness. Moreover, it wasn't conspicuous that she was pregnant as she had been trying to keep in shape. As such, hardly anyone could tell that she was pregnant.
"I'll be waiting for you in the company, then."
"Haven't you gotten off work at this hour? You're pregnant now, Kelly. Don't tire yourself out." There was a hint of worry in Brian's voice.
"It's fine. I can handle it."
"Wait for me at the entrance, then. I'll be there in a few minutes."
"Alright."
After the call ended, Kelly fished out some cosmetic products and wear makeup while looking in a mirror. All of a sudden, she recalled Kendall's reminder and looked down at her belly. Since she was
wearing clothes, it was hard for anyone to notice that she was pregnant. However, whenever she took a shower and looked in the mirror, she could see that her belly was bulging slightly.
There was no doubt the baby in her womb was full of vitality. The doctor said that she should get a check-up soon. She had been hesitant for the past few months since she found out she was pregnant.
After stroking her belly, she entered the bathroom and removed her makeup. She was only a young woman who was 26 years old. Even if she showed up with a bare face, she wouldn't look less beautiful than anyone. She was confident that her face was alluring.
Several minutes later, she got into Brian's car.
"Why didn't you put on any makeup today?" Brian noticed that she was barefaced the moment she entered the car.
"I removed it as makeup is bad for the child. Since I've decided to give birth to the child, I have to ensure it'll be healthy."
According to Kendall, it would only be harmful to both Kelly and the child if she still ignored her health. Although Kelly wasn't fond of Kendall, there was no denying the latter was right.
A glint flashed across Brian's eyes as he grunted impassively. "You have a point."
The atmosphere in the car turned awkward in an instant. After all, Kelly was pregnant with Jackson's child, but she was Brian's woman now.
A moment later, she said, "John met up with Kendall. He said that they got along well and Kendall was
impressed when she saw him for the first time."
Kelly had seen John before and there was no doubt he was handsome. He was just as good-looking as Dylan and Frank.
There was a smug smile on Brian's face as he muttered, "It took me a long time to find a man that met your criteria. Given his gentleness, I'm sure Kendall will fall for him as they meet up frequently."
Kelly grunted at that. "She's very lucky."
When they tried to set Kendall up back then, they had arranged for an old man named Reill for her. Unfortunately, Kendall managed to escape.
"She's with Dylan all the time, so she won't fall for a man who isn't handsome."
They had been planning this for quite a while. In their eyes, Dylan was still an impotent man. Even though he treated Kendall well, they still believed that he couldn't consummate his marriage. The reason he doted on Kendall was that he felt guilty.
Kendall might not feel lonely now, but could she stay with an impotent man for all her life?
As she spent more time with a man who was just as handsome as Dylan, coupled with the fact that he was brilliant and caring, it was likely that she would fall in love with him.
"We'd better not contact John frequently so that he'll work his magic." Kelly then reminded him by saying, "He's also a professional manager, so he's able to manage Good-Trust Electronics for us."
Good-Trust Electronics was a joint venture by Brian and Kelly that was used to fool Kendall. They also hoped to use the company to steal money from the Parker Corporation and put it into their own pockets.
Once the Parker Corporation was emptied, even if Kendall managed to become the president, she would only get an empty shell or even a company in debt.
"I got it."
Kendall wasn't a formidable opponent, but they had to be wary of her husband, Dylan. As such, Brian had to be cautious. He and Kelly were not the people in charge of Good-Trust Electronics on paper. Even if Dylan looked into the matter, he wouldn't get to them.
"Brian."
"Yeah?"
"Do you have any food in your car? I'm starving."
A pregnant woman would get hungry easily. After all, there was one more person in her belly to digest the food.
At that, Brian replied apologetically, "I'm sorry. I don't have any snacks in my car. We're going to have dinner anyway. I booked a table and ordered some dishes in advance. Food will be served as soon as we arrive."
Kelly stroked her belly and said, "I'll have to stuff some snacks into my bag so that I'll have something
to eat when I'm hungry."
"Sure. We'll get some snacks later."
"Okay. By the way, can you help me with something?"
"What is it?"
"Do you know anyone in the medical field? I'm looking for a genius in medicine who can develop their own drugs." Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
Brian took a glance at her before focusing on the road again. "What kind of drugs do you want?" he asked.
"I need a slow-releasing drug that will gradually make a person delirious. I also need a drug that will make a woman infertile."
A glint flashed across Brian's eyes. "Are you going to poison Kendall?"
"It'd be best if she cheats on Dylan and becomes pregnant. I'm sure Dylan and the Colemans will never forgive her," Kelly muttered. "But what if she never betrays Dylan? All the same, I have to make sure she will be infertile. As long as she can't produce a baby, the Parker Corporation will belong to my child and me as the company has to be passed down to someone."
"Are you going to give the slow-releasing drug to your parents?"
"Yes. Since they've been providing for me for over 20 years, I'm not going to kill them. I just want them
to go mad and I'll send them to a psychiatric hospital. Without them, Kendall won't be a match for me and I can finally take over the Parker Corporation!"
