Chapter 687

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 the 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.” Even 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 S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. 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.
