Chapter 549
Meanwhile, Roselynn was greatly displeased by Richie’s words and found him
even more annoying than Jaxton. He doesn’t even know how to toot his own
horn with a little more tact, but all he does is turn people off!
Mackenzie was attentive to everything that had happened and simply
remarked coolly, “It’s from St. Louis Vineyard, huh? They produce excellent
wine, but it’s a shame I’m not used to drinking it!”
On the other hand, Richie had just graduated with his master’s degree and
had no life experience, so when he heard her remarks, he started scrambling.
“Mackenzie, foreigners call this the wine of the beauties. It’s usually given to
beautiful women as gifts! Even if you don’t want it, it won’t be right for me to
take it back with me, so try it!”
After hearing his son’s words, Cain became even more despondent. Initially, I
aimed to gain her favor so my company could work with Terence Group.
More importantly, my son is still single and appears to have a bright future
ahead of him. I also want to see if he can befriend her and even hope they
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcan become a couple! I don’t think that will happen, but a guy can dream,
right? Alas, I finally realized how inept he is at interacting with others and
communicating with them!
In the meantime, Beatrix was infuriated. Who does this punk think he is?! How
dare he address Mackenzie by her first name?
“I see.” Mackenzie’s expression remained rather calm, though she was
frowning slightly. “How are you related to Roselynn?”
When Cain heard this, he winked at Richie to drop a hint.
Nonetheless, Richie took the hint and proudly announced with a grin,
“Roselynn is my cousin–in–law! We’re quite close!”
“Oh. Is that so?” She was snorting on the inside upon hearing those words.
Such a shameless man. Why would you mock her the way you did just now if
you two are so close? “In that case, I’ll help you deal with this.” Then, she stood
up and took the exquisite bottle of wine!
After seeing this, the father and son duo of the Unger family were thrilled!
They thought Mackenzie was accepting their gift, which meant they
managed to establish a relationship with her!
To their surprise, she handed the box to Roselynn and said, “Since this wine
should be presented to beautiful women… You’ve never tried it before,
Roselynn, so why don’t you take it home and taste it?”
“Wait-” Richie nearly reached out to snatch the wine. It cost me over 450
thousand! How can it end up in Roselynn’s hands? What’s the point of that?!
However, the moment he saw the icy expression in Mackenzie’s eyes as she
glanced at him, he immediately retreated in fear.
“What’s the matter? Do you think Roselynn’s not beautiful, or is it because you
can’t bear to let her have this wine? I thought you two were close.”
When Mackenzie said those words, she had a piercing and icy look in her
eyes, making Richie feel as if he had been thrown into freezing waters. His
mind went blank, and he was unable to respond to her.
Nevertheless, Cain quickly pulled Richie and gave her an ingratiating smile.
“Please do not misunderstand, Ms. Quillen! My son just wants to strike up a
friendship with you. He just came back to the country after graduating from
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, you see. Perhaps, he’s not good at
socializing with others yet and doesn’t quite know what to say sometimes,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
but he’s a good person!”
Mackenzie scoffed derisively upon hearing this.
On the other hand, Beatrix was even more forthright and stated, “Well, you’ve
given the wine away, so you can leave now. My sister has a lot of work to do!”
“Huh? But-” Richie was flustered after hearing this. The wine didn’t end up in
Mackenzie’s hands. What’s the use of giving it to Roselynn? I haven’t even had
a proper conversation with Mackenzie yet! I didn’t even manage to get a
smile from her! He was sorely disappointed. In the end, 450 thousand went
down the drain just like that!
“Well then, thank you, Mr. Unger!” In the meantime, Roselynn wanted to laugh.
at his reaction. “You don’t look too good, Mr. Unger,” she purposely remarked.
“You won’t try to take the wine with you when you leave, right? Maybe I should
just give it back to you now!” After saying this, she held the box out.
Then, Richie tried to reach out and take it from her.
Nonetheless, Cain quickly smacked his son’s hand away and smiled, “You
must be teasing us, Roselynn. The wine should be given to a beautiful
woman. I hope you’ll accept it from us!”
