Chapter 63
Kendrick stood in the hallway smoking.
The commotion in the ward just now was really loud, and almost all the patients and their families on this floor knew
him.
Surrounded by strange glances, constantly directed towards him, with people pointing and whispering, Kendrick felt annoyed.
He pinched out the cigarette butt and did not linger here, but walked to the stairwell and went down a few floors.
At that time, there weren’t too many people in the hall, so Kendrick found a quiet corner to sit in.
Just as the elevator door, not far away, suddenly opened, Talia came out from inside the elevator.
Kendrick squinted his eyes.
She was bowing her head and fiddling with her phone, as if she was talking to someone on the phone.
Kendrick frowned as he noticed Talia walking towards him. His gaze involuntarily followed her movements.
A hint of sarcasm curled up at the corner of the lips.
Early in the morning, David personally made a phone call. He belittled Talia over the phone, saying she was worthless,
and also mentioned that Talia would come to apologize to him.
Kendrick thought that yesterday Talia dared to lay a hand on him, and he was truly prepared to break ties with her.
I didn’t expect that, he actually came to apologize to him?
But this time, in order to get his attention, Talia went too far and Kendrick was really angry.
As Talia approached him, he stiffened his face and stood up.
With one hand behind the back, a look that keeps people at a distance of a thousand miles.
However, unexpectedly, when Talia was just one meter away from him, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Kendrick froze.
Talia’s attention was on her phone, and as the call ended, she cupped the phone in her palm and walked out of the lobby.
Throughout the entire time, I didn’t even glance in the direction where Kendrick was.
Kendrick stared at Talia’s figure, watching her walk out of the hall, get into a car, and clenched his fists instinctively.
Did he really get ignored by Talia?
She did not come to find him.
He left without looking back.
I didn’t even look at him.

Kendrick’s face darkened, then he suddenly smiled.
It seems that you have really become quite skilled.
And at this moment, Kayson, who was watching all of this not far away, had a pair of eyes as thick as ink.
Feeling a cold breath behind him, Kendrick instinctively turned around.
Our eyes met with Kayson’s at just the right moment.
“Kayson.”
Kayson squinted his eyes and asked, “What were you just looking at?”
Kendrick averted his gaze and pursed his lips, saying, “It’s nothing.”
“Is that so?” Kayson said nonchalantly, his voice tinged with his usual indifference. “Your fiancee is still waiting for you up there.”
Kendrick did not speak.
“Good things are coming, congratulations in advance.”
Kendrick’s lips tightened even more, “Thank you, Kayson.”
As they passed by each other, Kendrick’s gaze suddenly fell on the space between Kayson’s fingers.
On Kayson’s finger, it seemed like there was an extra ring.
But in Kendrick’s impression, Kayson didn’t often wear such things.

I couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
Something seems a little strange.
I couldn’t say it again.

Dinner.
Talia cooked five dishes and a soup herself, and Kayson arrived home at six o’clock in the evening on time.
As he entered the room, he caught a whiff of the delicious aroma of food filling the entire house, and a hint of surprise flickered in his deep eyes.
Talia came out with the last dish in her hands, “Go wash your hands and let’s eat.”
Kayson raised an eyebrow lightly and said, “So abundant?”
Talia nodded, “Made specially for you.”
Kayson’s clear gaze fell on Talia’s face, leaving a not–so–light, not–so–heavy mark in his heart because of these words.
After dinner, Talia sat on the couch and said, “Kayson, let’s talk!”
Kayson raised an eyebrow and casually took off his suit jacket, hanging it on the coat rack. “What are we talking about?”
Talia held a cushion in her hands, her slender legs curled up on the sofa, mostly covered by the cushion.
She looked up, her eyes glistening with moisture, and asked,

“Why did you marry me?”
Kayson’s throat tightened.

“I, ran after your nephew Kendrick for seven years, for you, we were not a good match.”
Kendrick was taken aback, then suddenly realized, “You already knew?”
Talia nodded, “You were Uncle Kendrick, and also the head of the Deven family, Jessica told me.”
“Whenever Kendrick saw you, he had to walk with his tail between his legs.”
“But you married me, and in the future, will you not feel awkward eating at the same table with Kendrick?”
Talia thought all day but couldn’t figure it out.
If not handled well, Kayson would probably be laughed at, which, in his opinion, was completely unnecessary.
To talk about repaying a favor, there are actually many ways to do so.
Not hearing a word from Kayson, Talia pursued, “So, can you help me clear up my confusion?”
Kayson’s deep gaze fell on Talia’s face, and he did not answer the question, but said,
“Mrs. Deven, since you knew that I was Kendrick’s nephew, you should not have been unaware of what marrying me represented, right?”

“You could hold your head high in the Taylor family, no longer needing to worry about pleasing others.”
“From now on, when Kendrick sees you, he will have to call you ‘Auntie‘. From then on, you can walk sideways and do whatever you want in Maplehelm, I will always have your back.”
“So I said all of this, Talia, do you understand the meaning of my words?”
“What you should be doing now, isn’t it to hold onto my thigh tightly?”
While I was still remembering your life–saving grace, I wondered how to tightly trap me and make me wholeheartedly devoted to you.
Talia innocently blinked her eyes.
How did Kayson say the exact same words as Jessica?
On the way back from the hospital today, Jessica kept hearing in her ear:
“You had to find a way to make Kayson fall in love with you, so that you could secure Mrs. Deven’s position and take control of your own destiny.”
Talia thought it was outrageous.
Make Kayson fall in love with her?
What’s the joke? How many times did they meet?
Jessica spared no effort in giving advice and even drove Talia to buy two pieces of sexy lingerie.

“If all else fails, you can seduce him. Men always fall for that! In short, the more he can’t live without you, the more secure your position will be.”
“Besides, you two were a legitimate couple! It’s not proper that you didn’t have intimate relations!”
“With Kayson’s face and physique, you wouldn’t lose out if you slept with him!”
Talia was thrilled by the thunder and went home with the sexy lingerie that Jessica helped her pick out.
Surprisingly, what Kayson is saying now is exactly the same as what Jessica said.
