Emmanuel nodded in response.
Ryder was about to leave when he sighed and said, “Manny, cherish your
wife. Ms. Quillen is an excellent woman.”
Emmanuel rubbed his nose and smiled. Definitely way better than Abellyn!
Mackenzie, who had reached the entrance, had actually heard Ryder’s
advice for Emmanuel.
A secretive smile played on her lips. Even his dimwitted cousin recognizes
what a great woman I am. I wonder if that imbecile is aware of it.
Soon, Emmanuel caught up with Mackenzie, and they returned home
together.
“Ms. Quillen, why did you walk into the residential area? Which car did you use
to come back?” Emmanuel asked with concern after closing the door and
walking in.

“Why? Why does it matter to you whose car I took?” Mackenzie snickered,

“Well“-Emmanuel nodded- “I’m worried for your safety since you’re a
beautiful woman.”
The words that flowed from the dork’s lips had a surprising effect on
Mackenzie, stirring something deep within her.
He always had an air of uniqueness about him, distinguishing him from other
men, even in the way he expressed himself.
Noticing her lack of response, Emmanuel pressed on, “Did you take a cab to
come back here? If so, the service must have been terrible for them to drop
you off outside the entrance.”
Amused by his incessant chatter, Mackenzie chuckled and said, “Emmanuel,
are all men with the surname Lowe so eager to please their wives? Aren’t you
-afraid of ending up like your cousin, being overshadowed by me?”
Emmanuel shook his head and replied earnestly, “Ms. Quillen, please don’t

compare yourself to Abellyn. It will only diminish your true value. I know for a
fact that you possess far better qualities than she does!”
“Well, you never know!” Mackenzie feigned displeasure although secretly she
was pleased to hear what he said.
She took pleasure in teasing him and making him dislike her. It served as her
defense mechanism, guarding against the possibility of him developing
strong feelings for her and refusing to agree to a divorce.
Yet, despite her indifferent attitude, Emmanuel still felt she was better than
Abellyn and was not mad at her.
When he was alone, he began to contemplate Mackenzie’s words earlier.
Have I been too accommodating toward her? Oh, well, I guess it doesn’t
really bother me.
The next day, Gautier knitted his brow as he noticed a specific expense in the
company records.
He promptly dialed Hubert’s number and reprimanded, “Hubert Verkade,
have you lost your mind? Why would you spend money on boosting such a
trivial matter to make it a trending story? Does it even work?”
The Verkade family was an extensive family with numerous branches.
Gautier could not even recognize some of his cousins and relatives, let alone
remember their faces.
However, he was well aware that the enemy lurked within the family. Many
individuals had their eyes fixed on his CEO position in Verkade Group. Any
misstep would surely reach his grandfather’s ears. That idiot took half a
million from the company and spent it on publicizing his romantic gesture of

“Didn’t you personally tell me not long ago that you support my pursuit of
Mackenzie? I’ve been running low on funds lately, so what’s the big deal
about using five hundred thousand from the company? You always teach
me to be a man with vision, to look at the bigger picture, and not to dwell on
temporary gains or losses! If I can successfully win over Mackenzie, we’ll
secure the position of leading the Verkade family!”
Gautier was bereft of words.
Fierce competition and covert struggles were not uncommon among the
direct heirs in prominent families. However, that dynamic did not exist
between Gautier and Hubert.
Hubert had never been ambitious and always had a soft spot for beautiful
women. He had never considered competing with his brother for inheritance
rights. Gautier had never been on guard against him. He even wanted to use
Hubert to deal with Mackenzie.
Gautier had never expected his younger brother to be so naive as to go
through with such a plan.
He found himself at a loss on how to react to his brother’s words because
Hubert was using the same arguments that Gautier had previously used to
persuade him.
