Chapter 93
Mackenzie did not bother about him and headed back to her room.
“Wait up, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel called out to her after entering the house
and locking the door.
“Did I step on your toes today? Why are you acting so angsty? Also, what
do you mean by looking for backup? Let’s settle things once and for all
now!”
Emmanuel’s tone was assertive; no men had spoken to Mackenzie in that
manner before.
Mackenzie glanced back over her shoulder, her eyes giving off an icy glint.
Seeing her expression, Emmanuel knew she must be harboring a grudge.
Mackenzie could hide her feelings well in front of people, except for
Emmanuel, whom she did not give any qualms about outright displaying
her emotions.
“How did you come back earlier?”
“What do you mean?” Emmanuel’s brows knitted tighter.
“Which woman sent you home?” Mackenzie raised her voice, her tone
increasingly cold.
A sudden realization dawned upon Emmanuel. So it’s because she saw
Claudette sending me home?
“Emmanuel, listen up!”
Seeing Emmanuel not respond, Mackenzie became frustrated and gave a
stern warning. “I may not like you, but I’m still your legal wife. I hope you
give me due respect and don’t cheat on me during our marriage.
Otherwise, it’ll be a thorn in my flesh even after we divorce. I don’t care if
you want to hook up with a young, pretty heiress, but just not while we’re This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
still married. Do you understand?”
Emmanuel found her words so ridiculous that it made him laugh.
“What are you laughing at?” Mackenzie was fuming mad. How dare he
gives such a response? Is he tired of living?
Just then, Emmanuel strode toward her.
Mackenzie became flustered when she saw Emmanuel’s eyes firing like a
beast. She stuttered while trying to be composed, “W-What are you trying
to do?”
She looked around, searching for a weapon to protect herself in case
Emmanuel tried to do something funny.
However, Emmanuel quickly pinned her against the wall before she could
escape.
Shocked and furious, Mackenzie glared at him in disbelief.
What audacity!
“Listen!”
t
Emmanuel did not care about her feelings and yelled, “Ms. Lenoir sent me
home today because I was giving her treatment! She was already my
patient before I knew you. Other than a doctor-patient relationship, we’re
also friends. But why do we sound like a cheating couple in your eyes?”
Mackenzie bit her lower lip in anger. “You…”
She could not rebuke him.
It was true that she did not catch them doing anything out of line.
Ultimately, it was her wild imagination acting up.
Gosh! When did I become such a person?
Emmanuel continued, “There’s a saying; a person with a black heart is
blind to goodness. You are beautiful, yet, you view the world with tainted
eyes. I have nothing to hide from my relationship with Ms. Lenoir. You
portray us as a cheating couple and deduce that I must have gone
looking for her if I’m not home.”
・・
The more Emmanuel spoke, the closer his face inched toward hers.
Mackenzie’s body increasingly stiffened.
She did not know if it was her misandry condition or her nervousness
causing it.
She was tempted to kick Emmanuel’s groin and see if he still dared to
treat her that way.
But ultimately, she did not move and could not even utter a single word.
