Chapter 687
“Let’s go.” Mackenzie had no intention of lingering as she turned on her heel
and left with a dispassionate expression on her face. She was followed by
Emmanuel and his family members. No one had the guts to stop them.
“W–What’s going on?”
The others didn’t really see the need to dig deeper. However, Ruby had just
gone on a blind date with Ryder, so she was curious about the icy woman,
who showed up and took the Lowe family away just like that. As such, she
secretly left the wedding hall and crept after the Lowe family.
The general manager of the hotel was hurrying down the other end of the
corridor along with a group of security guards. When he arrived, he saluted
Mackenzie and said respectfully, “Are you alright, Ms. Quillen? I was informed
that there was a commotion at the wedding hall. I was so worried about you.”
Even though it was so obvious Alessandra still hadn’t figured out her
daughter–in–law’s identity. Meanwhile, Ruby was utterly flabbergasted when
things started clicking into place in her mind. A woman addressed as Ms.
Quillen with an icy disposition? Could she be the Icy Female CEO of
Yeringham, Mackenzie Quillen? My goodness!
Sure enough, Ruby felt her jaw drop as she stared dumbly at Mackenzie and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe Lowe family upon discovering the truth. By the time she came to her
senses, she couldn’t help but mourn just how foolish she and Milani had
been. To make matters worse, she should have pieced things together the
moment Milani had mentioned Emmanuel had brought up that he had a
wife, and her name was Mackenzie. She should have known better than to
continue her witch hunt on the man right then and there!
Nonetheless, at that time, they didn’t even dream of associating Emmanuel’s
wife with the famous female CEO of Yeringham. Although they later learned
that he became a kept man of a wealthy woman, they still hadn’t connected
the dots. Moreover, there was a piece of breaking news about Mackenzie
searching around the entire city for her husband. Just how blind had they
been?
Given the series of clues, they should’ve long realized that Emmanuel’s wife
was none other than Mackenzie. If Ruby knew the Lowe family were tied to
the Quillens, she would’ve agreed to marry Ryder in an instant. If she could
become part of the Lowe family, she no longer had to worry about money.
Alas, both families had fallen out after that entire farce earlier. If she went
proposing to Ryder right now, there was no doubt she would be humiliated
for her ways. As such, she could only return home and come up with a plan
to get back in their good graces once more.
“I’m fine. Anyway, I have to leave now. I’ll leave the arrangements in your
care,” Mackenzie ordered impassively.
“Yes, Ms. Quillen.” The general manager quickly told someone to get the car
ready.
Ryder was aware that Mackenzie was a capable woman, but he was still
shocked by what he saw. Has Emmanuel’s wife gotten a promotion recently?
Is she very influential now?
On the other hand, the fact that Mackenzie came from a powerful family still
hadn’t dawned on Alessandra. She only felt that since Mackenzie was a
manager from a large corporation who had a vast network, it was only
natural that everyone respected her. Plus, she was utterly ignorant about the
upper class as she had never come into contact with them. It also didn’t help
that she wasn’t the least bit interested in them, preferring to live a peaceful
life with her family. So, she was only concerned about when the couple was
going to finally give birth to her grandchild.
When they left the hotel entrance, Mackenzie turned around and said, “Ms.
Cadigan and Roselynn, since Emmanuel will be sending me home, I’ll be
entrusting the safety of your journey home to the hotel.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven though Alessandra was unwilling to part ways with them, she still took
Mackenzie’s hands in hers and said, “Sure, sure. By the way, when will you
have time to visit me?”
Mackenzie was in a dilemma, for she had a lot on her plate at the moment.
Therefore, she could only reply perfunctorily, saying, “We’ll see, Ms. Cadigan.
Emmanuel and I will definitely make some time to visit you every month.”
ו
Although Alessandra was disappointed, she still nodded her head in
acquiescence. “Alright. Please call me before you drop by.”
Mackenzie nodded and sauntered toward her Maserati.
“I’ll see you again, Mom.” Emmanuel felt apologetic. Regardless, he was well
aware that Mackenzie was truly swamped with work. She didn’t even have
time to eat lunch or go to the washroom when it became hectic. Hence, he
couldn’t force her to visit his mother often. He could only hope that Ryder
would find a wife soon. That way, there would be one more person keeping
Alessandra company.
Meanwhile, the wedding hall was still a mess.
The groom, Noah, had beaten up his brother–in–law, so the atmosphere was
rather tense.
The onlookers were curious about how they were going to carry on with the
wedding. Or, perhaps whether there would be a wedding at all.
