Chapter 1133 Don’t Burn Bridges After Crossing The River
“I’m sorry,
Mackenzie! I promise I won’t go to places like that again, no matter what!” Emmanuel sincerely apologized.
“Why are you apologizing? I’m the one who allowed you to go.” Mackenzie turned away, gazing out the window in silence.
However, Emmanuel still felt guilty. It seemed that his decision last night was indeed a terrible one. Married men, for any reason, should avoid places that could cause trouble for their wives.
Emmanuel had originally planned to talk to Mackenzie about Sarah, but seeing that his wife was in a bad mood, he ultimately chose not to continue.
“Make a stop at Luxoria Hotel!” Mackenzie suddenly spoke up as they approached Cloudscape Mall.
“Alright.” Emmanuel nodded without asking why, allowing Mackenzie to prompt him. “Don’t you want to know why I’m going there?”
“It’s a business matter. Do you have a client meeting?” Emmanuel hit the nail on the head. However, Mackenzie didn’t like that at all. She believed that the sense of mystery would gradually fade if they became too familiar with each other.
They say that seven years is the itch, but she and Emmanuel had only been together for less than half a year. Was it starting already?
“A man asked me to meet him at the hotel!” she said intentionally, hoping to make Emmanuel jealous. It seemed like it had been a while since he had been jealous for her sake.
However, not only was he not jealous, but he even asked nonchalantly, “Would it be inconvenient if I accompany you?”
Mackenzie pressed her lips together and shot him an angry glare as she spoke, “Wait for me in the car then!”
With that, she got out of the car but became concerned that he would misunderstand. So, she added, “I’ll be back real soon.”
Her feelings were very contradictory. On one hand, she wanted Emmanuel to be jealous for her sake, but on the other hand, she didn’t want further suspicion between husband and wife, so she constantly felt indecisive.
“Alright, I’ll wait for you!” Emmanuel nodded and watched as Mackenzie walked into the hotel with an icy demeanor.
He also sensed a subtle change in his and Mackenzie’s relationship and felt slightly anxious. This change definitely had to do with his visit to The Paradise the night before. However, what’s done is done; he couldn’t dwell on it now.
He needed to find time to consult Rhea, his love guru, about what to do next.
He really cared about Mackenzie now, and he would feel uncomfortable seeing his wife angry and giving him the cold shoulder./
Meanwhile, Mackenzie arrived at the door of the presidential suite on the top floor, where a middle- aged man in a suit stood. He appeared to be around fifty years old, with his eyes closed and an aura of a martial arts master.
“Miss Quillen, Mr. Nathan has been waiting inside for quite some time. Please, go ahead!” the middle- aged man said without opening his eyes.
Mackenzie nodded slightly and pushed the door open.
Inside, Nathan was casually leaning back with his legs on the table, playing a mobile game and excitedly shouting, “Flank them, use the ultimate move! Oh man, can’t you do better…”
But as soon as he saw Mackenzie, he immediately tossed the phone aside.
Beauties before games-this was his principle as a charming young scion.
“Hey, Master’s wife!” Nathan grinned.
“Mr. Nathan, please show some respect! I’m not your master’s wife!” Mackenzie stared at him with cold eyes, completely unconcerned about the status and identity of this young scion.
She wouldn’t have bothered meeting him if it weren’t for the business cooperation between Terence Group and the Chapman family.
“Haha, my master risked his life to save you in Yeternia. It’s not wrong of me to call you his wife, right?” Nathan teased.
He was only testing to see if Mackenzie had discovered Emmanuel’s identity, but it seemed that his master had concealed it well. She was still clueless that the man who saved her in Yeternia was her husband.
“Mr. Nathan, if you called me here just to say these things, I’ll take my leave.” Mackenzie turned to leave right away, not bothering to entertain his pride.
“Come on, Ms. Quillen. Don’t burn bridges after crossing the river!” Nathan quickly blocked her
way.
Of course, Mackenzie wasn’t that kind of person either. It was all thanks to the Chapmans’ crucial assistance in solving the technical refining issue that Terence Group could successfully overcome the crisis.
