True Fated Marriage novel Chapter 2157

Kendrix felt a little helpless for his misfortune that day.

What a lousy start to the year.

He thought he had been at everyone's mercy that day.

Perhaps he shouldn't have stayed and chatted with William, or he wouldn't be in such an awkward situation.

Look where it landed him, rendered speechless, unseemly if he didn't answer but out of line if he did.

It was a Catch-22.

"I agree with you." Kendrix smiled and said nonchalantly, "Some do need to grow a pair, but he should also abide by boundaries. Some lines shouldn't be crossed."

He was a policeman; it was a no-brainer for him.

He would be committing a crime if he crossed it.

Kendrix always had a sense of rationality to whatever and whenever. Some might find him dawdling, but that was his bottom line.

William was taken aback by his reply, not expecting Kendrix to have such an understanding.

Bottom line, huh?

Indeed, some people knew no limits.

He nodded unconsciously, seemingly already agreeing with his standpoint.

Perhaps Kendrix was right.

Since he had put it that way, William didn't press him any further.

He already had a good idea of the situation from their conversation.

He smiled and nodded again. Suddenly, he said, "Sylvia, I'm tired. Bring the wheelchair over, will you please?"

"Okay."Sylvia jolted back to reality. She was, of course, watchful of his physical condition.

She had wanted to hear more of their conversation, but she could only comply since William was intentionally asking her to leave.

With that, she said, "I'll be right back." However, she turned to Kendrix before leaving, worried, "Please make sure you hold him close, Mr. Trevino."

"No problem," Kendrix assured her.

William was in his declining years, and it was clear as day of his condition. Although he was still considerably hale and hearty, he was no longer a young man anyhow.

Kendrix would naturally be more cautious.

Receiving his affirmation, Sylvia gave him a good look before leaving.

She rushed, almost trotting back to the wheelchair.

Only Kendrix and the butler were with William then. William liked the butler because he knew when and what to say and not.

So William didn't mind the butler staying. After Sylvia was a good distance away, he said to Kendrix, "It sure is necessary for young people to shoulder some responsibility and morality."

Kendrix smiled and faced William. "Compared to the older generation, the younger generation is not as responsible and ethical."

"Times are changing." William smiled. "Some can live even if they have to abandon some spiritual matters, but some can't. No one can force anyone."

Kendrix nodded.

"However, overly abiding by your principles will only bring you suffering." William looked ahead. "You wouldn't be crossing the line if it only involves the two of you when it comes to love."

Struck with epiphany, Kendrix nodded. "Thank you for your wisdom, Mr. Carter."
