Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Early the next morning, Lexi returned to work at Terence Group as usual. 141 She had prepared various plans to deal with the bombing of the warehouse and was ready to present them to Mackenzie. However, as soon as she entered the CEO’s office, Mackenzie gave her an order. “Lexi, put aside all your work today and find a way to bail Emmanuel out of the police station for me!” “Uh…” Lexi was stunned, clearly unaware of what had happened after Mackenzie left last night. Once she realized it, she immediately responded, “Ms. Quillen, didn’t you drive him away last night? Why are you so concerned about him now?” In the next moment, Mackenzie shot a cold glint toward her. Under the cold gaze, Lexi covered her cherry–red mouth and quickly stopped teasing her boss, then changed her tone. “Ms. Quillen, I understand. Why is Emmanuel in the police station?” Mackenzie succinctly explained, “He killed the other person in self-defense during the process of being attacked. According to the law, he is innocent, but there are people meddling behind the scenes, so there may be some complications to handle!” “Alright, Ms. Quillen. I understand!” Lexi nodded quickly and went to work. Handling such matters was her expertise. Mackenzie also trusted her abilities. The bombing of the warehouse had caused many problems for her company. Now, with this incident, the Quillen family and the Verkade Family had completely fallen out with each other. Although the Verkade Family sounded intimidating as a top–tier wealthy family in Zovince, this was Yeringham after all. Mackenzie wasn’t afraid of any enemies. In any case, she must clear Emmanuel’s name and make the Verkade Family and Magnus give her an explanation! “Mackenzie!” While Mackenzie was overwhelmed with various matters, Terence and Alfred barged into her office.  This time, even her mother, Felicity, alongside Beatrix and Sarah, trailed behind. Clearly, something significant had happened! “Grandpa, what’s wrong?” Mackenzie didn’t get up from her desk and raised her head slightly, frowning as she asked. “How did Claudette die? Because of this, the Lenoir Family has come after me!” Terence was an old man who had experienced countless problems in life. It was impossible for ordinary people to pressure him, but Claudette’s father was a powerful figure in Yeringham with the authority to mobilize troops. If Claudette’s death was truly related to the Quillen family, General Lenoir S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findηøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. would undoubtedly confront them, and Terence would face great pressure! In the face of Terence’s questioning, Mackenzie bit her lip and coldly responded, “Grandpa, if the Lenoir family wants trouble over Claudette’s death, they can come and find me.” “Ah, you’re really driving me crazy!” Seeing Mackenzie’s expression, Terence didn’t continue to press her. Through his granddaughter’s gaze, he saw her complex emotions, which made him feel a little sorry for her. Beatrix also felt sorry for her sister. Mackenzie always carried everything on -her shoulders, and she herself regretted not having enough ability to help her sister more. “Mackenzie, if this matter has nothing to do with you, just say it!”  Felicity spoke up, “You divorced Emmanuel. No matter what happened to Claudette, as long as you announce that you have nothing to do with Emmanuel, the Quillen family won’t be involved in this matter.” “Shut up!” Mackenzie interrupted with her icy gaze fixed on Felicity. Felicity sensed her daughter’s unusual gaze. It was cold and angry, so even though she was a bit displeased, she didn’t continue under Terence’s presence. “Grandpa, I will handle this matter. I won’t let anything happen to Emmanuel. You can rest assured!” When Mackenzie said those words, Terence did feel relieved.
