Chapter 61

Chapter 61 It was obvious what this kind of treatment meant. “Mom, Manny, let’s go!” Unable to stand it, Roselynn wanted to leave even before sitting down. Although the Zimmermans would be paying for the dinner, she could not care less about it after receiving such treatment. Alessandra grabbed her arm to prevent her from losing her temper. Even though her family and the Zimmerman family were not related by blood, the fact that they could find the same matchmaker indicated a connection between them. Besides, they lived near each other, so  it was better to have one more friend than one more enemy. Milani shot Emmanuel a smug look. Melody and Jacob also looked at him. Why is he still here? He must still want to marry Milani. Haha. We enjoy watching people who don’t know their place make a fool of themselves. Right then, another man in a fancy suit walked in. Milani immediately went up to him and gently held his arm. Her relatives in the room were surprised by the sight. Alessandra was also stunned. I didn’t expect Milani to get a man so soon. “Milani, is he your boyfriend?” “Yeah, who is he?” Milani, who had anticipated such responses from her relatives, gave Emmanuel a triumphant glare before introducing the man to them in a pretentiously shy manner. “Well, let me introduce him to you. This is my best friend, Darren Chase. He’s also my boyfriend–to–be I’m currently getting to know. He’s a doctor specializing in internal medicine at Beacon Hospital with an annual Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Findηøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. income of more than three hundred thousand. His uncle is the deputy director of the hospital, while his dad is a businessman. I heard that he owns assets worth more than tens of millions!” Whoa! All the relatives of the Zimmerman family went wild upon hearing that. Frowning hard, Emmanuel looked at Darren and wondered if he was the reason why Alessandra was kicked out of the ward the other day. Darren did not even spare Emmanuel a glance since he arrived. In his opinion, Emmanuel could not be compared to him. Why should I show him respect when his position in the hospital is lower than that of mine, and his family is also far worse off than mine? “Dr. Chase, you’re such a promising young man!” “I agree. Your medical skills must be very good since you became an attending physician at the age of thirty.” “Congratulations, Milani. You’ve found such an excellent boyfriend! His qualities are simply incomparable to those men you met through blind dates before!” Milani’s relatives started showering her and Darren with flattery. They had already considered Darren as her man despite her claim that they had just started dating. Jacob and Melody, who were also being buttered up, grew arrogant. They kept looking at Emmanuel and his family while laughing. Alessandra and Roselynn felt extremely awkward and embarrassed as if they were being executed publicly. Only then did they realize that the Zimmermans had invited them over to embarrass them and Emmanuel on purpose. Emmanuel remained expressionless the entire time as he watched Milani put on the show in silence. Compared with Mackenzie, Darren is definitely not as good. Neither is Milani. But I don’t bother to compete with Milani. I’ve never thought of showing off my wife! “By the way, Milani, I heard that you’re getting a promotion and pay rise tomorrow, aren’t you? Coupled with the bonus of three hundred thousand, will your income be more than one million this year?” Jacob deliberately asked to elevate Milani’s status. All the relatives of the Zimmerman family gasped in shock upon hearing his words. “Congratulations, Milani! You’re so capable!” “That’s right. You’re making millions a year even though you’re only twenty–five years old. How impressive! You’ve done your family proud!” – “You and Dr. Chase are both social elites, which makes you a match made in heaven!” “This makes me wonder why a man with an annual salary of eighty thousand would dare to go on a blind date with you previously.”
