Chapter 56: Are You In A Relationship?

Curtis turned around, "My Lord, they have all gone."
Lendon held Kendra's waist and asked, "Is breakfast ready?"
"Yes, sir," Curtis nodded.
"Let's go," Lendon said and walked to the dining hall with Kendra.
During breakfast, Kendra secretly glanced at him from time to time and frowned. She seemed to think about something.
"If you want to look at me, don't be shy. I'm all yours," Lendon raised his eyebrows and teased her.
Kendra felt embarrassed and lowered her head.
"Kendra." Lendon suddenly called her attention.
"Yes."
"Look at me," Lendon said.
Kendra looked at Lendon confusedly.
Lendon walked to Kendra quickly and kissed her. "Good girl." He traced her lips with his hand afterward.
Kendra felt speechless and rubbed her forehead. After breakfast, she thought she needed to go to work with Lendon, but Curtis gave her a piece of paper.
"Miss Miller, it's your mission today," Curtis said.
Kendra looked at the paper and felt curious. "What do you mean?" She asked.
"You need to study all of that." Lendon put his knife down elegantly, looking at her seriously.
"How can I learn to cook 30 dishes in a day? And I also need to learn makeup, manners, and fashion etiquette?" Her eyes were wide-open.
"I want you to prepare food for me personally. But, as for others, you will need them to enhance yourself." Lendon explained simply.
"No." Kendra refused. It would take her lots of time to learn all these tasks.
"You don't have to finish all the lessons today. Take your time." Lendon leaned his back to the soft chair casually.
"But why?" Kendra asked confusedly. It was not related to her profession at all.
"Don't ask. Just do it." Lendon glared at her and said impatiently.
"Lendon, do you want me to be busy so that I don't have time to be sad?" Kendra sighed and asked.
Lendon said nothing.
"You don't have to do this. I am fine." Kendra argued. In fact, after sleeping for a night, she felt much better.
"Just do as I say. You need to learn all that according to the schedule from today onwards." Lendon insisted. He wouldn't let Kendra refuse his arrangement.
Damn! She was defeated by him again.
"Miss Miller, please follow me." She heard Curtis told her.
Kendra glared at Lendon and stood up. She went to the kitchen with Curtis unwillingly. She spent all the morning in the kitchen, and the chef taught her to cook dishes one by one. As for Lendon, he was also busy supervising Kendra. Every time Kendra cooked a new dish, he would taste it immediately. He had eaten more than ten dishes by now.
When Kendra came out again with a new dish, she could only see empty plates in front of Lendon. "You ate it all?" She can't believe he has a lot of appetites.
"Yes," Lendon said and stared at the new dish.
Kendra was shocked. Was Lendon a pig? How could he eat so much food?
"I don't want to cook." Kendra put the plate on the table and said.
"Why?" Lendon asked.
"You have had enough. I can't cook 30 dishes in a day." Kendra sat next to him. If Lendon got uncomfortable because he ate too much, she would take responsibility, too.
"I want more," Lendon said and started tasting the new dish.
"No, stop eating. This isn't good for you," Kendra stopped him and took the food away.
"What are you doing?" Lendon asked annoyingly.
Curtis looked at them and felt helpless. Mr. Martin did eat too much food this morning. He never did that before.
"Fine." Lendon raised his eyebrows and asked, "Curtis, has her mentor arrived?"
"Yes, sir," Curtis answered.
"Take her to the study room," Lendon ordered.
Good, she couldn't just take a break. Kendra spent the rest of this day on makeup, manners, and fashion lesson. At night, Kendra dropped her tired body on the bed and didn't want to move. She wanted to scream. Lendon is torturing her.
The next few days, Kendra was busy with those lessons arranged by Lendon. She had to admit that she barely had time to think about her family as she was so occupied. Lendon would even check her study at night.
Five days later, Kendra saw Curtis waiting for her outside as she walked out of her bedroom.
"What do I need to learn today?" Kendra pouted her lips.
"You don't have a lesson today, Miss Miller," Curtis answered.
"Why?" Kendra was surprised.
"Mr. Martin prepared this for you, Miss Miller." Curtis gave a dress to Kendra and said.
"A dress? Are we going to a party?" Kendra asked. Why didn't Lendon tell her before?
"I don't know. Mr. Martin just said that he would pick you up this afternoon. So be ready," Curtis said and left.
Kendra felt so confused. What was Lendon planning this time?
Sunset came, Curtis appeared again and reminded Kendra to put that dress on.
"Curtis, do you know where we are going?" Kendra asked curiously as they walked downstairs.
"You will know, later on, Kendra," Lendon suddenly appeared and said, he walked to Kendra wearing an expensive suit. Obviously, his suit was custom-made, and it even made him look so noble.
As Lendon walked, Kendra could clearly feel his charm. Lendon looked like a professional model. Kendra stared at him as if appreciating a precious art.
Lendon was satisfied with Kendra's reaction. He stood beside Kendra and forced her to look at him. "Do I look good?" He pinched Kendra's chin, smiled.
"Yes." Kendra nodded without hesitation.
"Good." Lendon said, "Curtis, close the door."
Curtis left the room and closed the door immediately.
Lendon helped Kendra take her clothes off right away.
"What are you doing?" Kendra stepped back and asked cautiously.
"I can help you dress up," Lendon said.
"I can do it on my own." Kendra lowered her head and said bashfully.
Lendon smiled and held Kendra's waist. "I insist." He whispered and took Kendra's crop top off.
Soon, Kendra was almost naked.
Lendon stared at Kendra and felt a strong desire. He pressed Kendra on the wall and kissed her.
"We are going to a party." Kendra pushed him away and reminded him.
"We still have time," Lendon said and almost went crazy. Kendra was like his drug. Today was an ordinary day, but he will break the rules of not touching her. He badly needed to have her right now despite the danger ahead.
They get laid. Ten minutes later, Lendon finally let Kendra go and said, "Let's get dressed."
Kendra put that dress on and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at herself and said, "It's pretty."
"I chose it," Lendon said proudly. Tonight was a big party. But, first, he must make sure Kendra was the most outstanding one among other women.
"But..." Kendra looked at her left shoulder and hesitated. There was a tooth print left on it.
Lendon used Kendra's hair to cover that mark and said, "Don't let other people see it." He was the only one who could see this mark.
After everything was ready, they went out and got in the car.
Kendra was calm as they traveled. Lendon held her hand, caressing it lovingly.
Until the car stopped, Kendra finally felt weird. "Whose party is this?" She frowned and asked.
A group of journalists surrounded their car and looked so excited.
"Mr. Martin, are you friends with the Miller and the Baker family?"
"Mr. Martin, is this woman your girlfriend?"
"Mr. Martin, this lady was also your partner last time. Are you in a relationship?"
"Mr. Martin, can you answer our question?"
***
The journalist asked several questions urgently outside the car.
Kendra looked at Lendon with a pale face. "It's their engagement party?" She queried.
"Get off." Lendon nodded and said.
"Wait. Why didn't you tell me?" Kendra grabbed Lendon's arm and asked. Then, suddenly, Kendra seemed to realize something and said, "You kept me busy these days to distract me, so I wouldn't see the news." No wonder Lendon didn't even allow her to use a laptop or phone. He didn't want her to see the latest news. And he planned this behind her.
"Yes," Lendon admitted.
"Why?" Kendra asked.
"We must ruin this party. They abandoned you. They don't deserve to have a happy engagement party." Lendon said coldly.
"Are you crazy?" Kendra asked. He wanted to ruin this party! It was beyond Kendra's imagination.
"Get off, don't make me repeat my words," Lendon sneered and said, "Don't be a coward. You need to take your revenge."
"But..."
"There is no but." Lendon glared at her and repeated, "Get off.'
"No." Kendra refused and asked, "Do you know what it means if I ruin this party today?" First, it will make Bianca a laughing stock. Secondly, it means that even if she was kicked out from the Miller family, she was still aftering them. She doesn't want to look desperate by ruining this party.
"You don't hate them?" Lendon couldn't believe what he heard from her. He arranged everything carefully, and it was a perfect plan. How could Kendra give up now?
"I hate them, but I can't hurt Bianca. Please, let's not ruin her life," Kendra begged. She had her own principle. For her, Bianca was innocent, and she wouldn't dare to hurt Bianca. Besides, Michael didn't want to marry Bianca at all. If she ruined this party, he would be happy. She definitely couldn't get him out of her life.
Lendon stared at Kendra for a long time, deeply sighed, "Let's go back to the castle."
