Chapter 137 The next moment, Emmanuel emerged from the situation unharmed. “H–How…” Beatrix was in disbelief as she looked at Emmanuel and then at Mackenzie. She didn’t want Mackenzie to think she was playing a prank or lying to her. “Step back!” Mackenzie quickly commanded the bodyguards as she still had to pretend to be poor. Taking advantage of Emmanuel’s obliviousness, Mackenzie made her way toward him. Beatrix decided not to disturb Mackenzie and her husband any further. She swiftly retreated from the scene along with the bodyguards. As Emmanuel lifted his gaze, he caught sight of Beatrix and the twelve skilled bodyguards. Yet, he didn’t link them to Mackenzie. He presumed they were dispatched by Beatrix herself to rescue him. 4 Next, he shifted his attention to his wife.  “Why are you here, Ms. Quillen?” “You idiot! Are you trying to be heroic again?” Mackenzie scolded, her eyes filled with concern. “I’ve actually been holding back for a while, but Ms. Beatrix is my boss. How can I stand by and do nothing?” Emmanuel explained while scratching his head. He felt apologetic for causing his wife to worry and go through the  trouble of coming to check on him. “Let’s talk when we reach home!” Mackenzie grabbed his sleeve in frustration and pulled him along. Beatrix, who had observing from afar, found it incredibly hard to believe that  Mackenzie, known for her cold demeanor and aversion to physical contact, was now willingly holding a man’s hand. Even though it was just the act of holding his sleeve, it signified a remarkable  breakthrough nonetheless. “Ms. Thompson,” a group of burly men from the Sky Wolf Society called out in Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findηovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. unison outside the hotel. Ignoring her subordinates, Eve walked out of the hotel and fixed her gaze on the departing couple. What a beauty! He certainly has excellent taste! Eve couldn’t help but mock herself. She swiftly put on sunglasses, reestablishing her unapproachable aura, and waved her hand to signal her entourage to leave. On the way back home, Mackenzie remained silent until they were inside and the door was closed. “From now on, you are not allowed to go out at night. You always end up in trouble! Are you some violent maniac who needs to get into fights every time you step out?”  They had been married for less than a month, and he had already gotten  into three fights. Faced with Mackenzie’s intense interrogation, Emmanuel refrained from arguing and instead wore a look of mild surprise. “I didn’t know you care about me so much, Ms. Quillen.” Mackenzie trembled slightly, and her expression turned solemn. “What are you talking about? Don’t get ahead of yourself. I’m just afraid that one day you’ll end up getting beaten to death, and I’ll be widowed. It would be troublesome to deal with a divorce at that point.” 4/5 “I see,” the man responded, well aware that being widowed did not require going through a divorce procedure. Nevertheless, he made a solemn promise. “In that case, Ms. Quillen, I assure you I won’t let anyone beat me to death before the divorce.” “You…” Truly exasperated by the stubborn fool, she decided to display her assertive CEO aura. “Anyway, from now on, you’re not allowed to go out at night without my permission. Is that understood?”  “Ms. Quillen, I obtained your permission to go out tonight,” Emmanuel replied  earnestly. Fine, I can’t be bothered to argue with this idiot any longer. I’m going back to my room to sleep. So what if he’s beaten to death? It’s none of my business. Why did I bother to save him tonight? Mackenzie quickly justified her actions. I wasn’t going to save him. I was going to save Beatrix! Search the FindNovel.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
