Kendall's Sacrifice

Chapter 668

Chapter 668 Finally Arrested

Sally looked at Charlotte. She thought Adam was acting weird, too. "Are you hiding something from me, Adam?" Charlotte asked. She then looked at Kendall. Noticing her daughter's solemn look, she couldn't help feeling her heart sink, her face falling. "Did you find another woman and knock her up?" I can't imagine why Kendall would look so solemn otherwise.

Sally looked at Charlotte. She thought Adam was acting weird, too. "Are you hiding something from me, Adam?" Charlotte asked. She then looked at Kendall. Noticing her daughter's solemn look, she couldn't help feeling her heart sink, her face falling. "Did you find another woman and knock her up?" I can't imagine why Kendall would look so solemn otherwise.

"This is not a telenovela, Mommy. He's loyal to you," said Kendall.

"Looks like you know the reason. You tell me, then. What are you two hiding?"

Kendall looked at Sally. She wondered if Sally could take the news.

Noticing her look, Sally got nervous as she figured out what Kendall might be hiding. "Is this about Kelly? Did she do something this time?"

The fact Kendall was looking at her and Adam treated her so politely had told her this was about Kelly. She wondered what Kelly had done this time.

Nelson came in. He went out earlier so Charlotte's friend wouldn't size him up like he was a doll. He told his mother he was not in a rush to get married, but his mother wouldn't listen. When he came back in, he heard his mother ask that question, and he frowned. "Ignore her, Mom. She's an adult, and she's going to be a mother soon. She should know what she's doing."

"Kendall, Adam, just tell us what you're hiding already. The suspense is killing me," Charlotte urged.

Adam put his cup down and heaved a sigh. "This is unfortunate news," he said, his voice tinged with sorrow. "The car crash was no accident. It was a laid-out plan, and the masterminds are Kelly and Rosemi." Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"What?!" Charlotte was shocked and in disbelief. "Is that true? Did Kelly plan that? How could—"

"Mom! Mom!" Nelson and Kendall held the unconscious Sally.

Sally was passed out from fury. She couldn't believe her daughter was behind the attempt to drown them in the river. She knew her daughter didn't want to get reunited with them because they were poor, and they never forced her to do that, but to go so far as murder them was too much.

The Parker couple quickly said, "Quick! Take her to the couch."

Kendall and Nelson took Sally to the couch and laid her on it. Nelson massaged Sally's temples, and his mother slowly woke up. When she saw who was in front of her, she cried.

"Sal." Charlotte was sad as well. She held Sally up, tears glistening in her eyes.

"How could she do that to us? We've never forced her into acknowledging us as a family, but she tried to kill us. And she tried to kill you! You raised her! How could she do that?!" Sally cried. "How can someone be so cruel?"

In pain, Adam responded, "She was coming after us. You guys just happened to be dragged into this mess. She never thought you'd come with us."

"That's not the point! She shouldn't have done this. How could she?" Sally had hoped it was a girl when she was pregnant with her third child, and her prayers were heard. The girls might have been switched

at birth, but that didn't change the fact Sally did all she could to ensure her girl was born well. Even though she didn't raise Kelly, she did give her life. She shouldn't have tried to kill them.

The ladies cried for quite a while.

Through sobs, Sally asked, "Where's that girl, Kendall?"

"She ran away."

"She ran away? After all the things she had done, she ran away?! She won't even turn herself in? I can't believe her! What on earth is she thinking?" Sally cried again, blaming herself for her daughter's crimes.

Charlotte wiped her tears. "Where did she escape to?"

"No idea. The cops came to my office earlier, but she was gone right before they came. Brian probably tipped her off, and she has turned her phone off. Not sure if she's escaped the city." A pause later, Adam continued, "Dylan has his men keeping an eye on her. He will stop her, and the cops will take her in."

"Eight innocent lives!" he exclaimed, disappointment and sorrow apparent on his face. "Even if she turns herself in, it's still a death sentence. Now, she's trying to escape it. She has no chance to run away now. I won't get her any lawyers. She must face the consequences of her action." To think we have raised a girl such as Kelly.

Just the thought of the murders Kelly committed made the world around Sally spin. Some mistakes could be forgiven, but some could never be. There was a path of no return, and Kelly took it. She must die to douse the victims' flame of rage. Her sin must be paid in blood. She took eight lives and destroyed three families. Death was the only atonement for her.

Dylan's men kept a close eye on her. Under Brian's arrangement, she managed to switch cars and escape Orapolis, but the car she was currently in was blocked on the highway, surrounded by police cars.

Kelly was in the passenger seat. Noticing the police cars around her made her pale, and out of nervousness, she felt a stab of pain shooting up from her belly.

Her driver had no idea she was a fugitive. All he did was take a passenger, and then the cops stopped him. It wasn't until Kelly was cuffed that he realized the cops were here for his passenger. Still, he was questioned. When it was proven he had no idea who Kelly was, the cops let him go.

Kelly was taken into a police car. She was reminded of the crime she had committed and the lives she had taken. The consequences she had to pay would be dire. The public was paying all attention to this case, and all news outlets and independents also kept a close eye on it. She would not leave this unscathed.

When she stared down at the cuffs, fear finally struck her heart, but it was too late. The pain from her belly became even stronger, her face getting paler. Please, gods, don't take the baby away. If the baby died, she would be sentenced to death soon enough. Calm down. Relax. I must protect the baby. She tried her best to relax so her baby could stay safe, but the pain in her belly would not subside.
