A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 1144

Chapter 1144

As Mackenzie prepared herself for whatever this man 

After a while, Mackenzie opened her eyes. 

“Mackenzie, you seem a bit tired today. Let’s rest early.” 

Emmanuel sensed that something was off with Mackenzie today. 

Furthermore, he hadn’t taken a shower tonight, and his wife was a neat freak. He was afraid that she would find fault with him if they became intimate later, which would be embarrassing! 

Most importantly, he felt that he hadn’t gained the approval from all members of the Quillen family, and their marriage wasn’t stable yet. It wouldn’t be appropriate to rush into taking Mackenzie’s virginity, right? 

In any case, tonight was not the right time. 

“Okay…” 

Mackenzie’s lips curled slightly, her thoughts appearing complicated, but ultimately, she remained silent. 

The next morning, as Emmanuel dropped off Mackenzie at Terence Group, he received a call from Alessandra. 

“Mom, did you say you gave the dowry to the Zimmerman family? And you’re going to help Ryder buy a house tomorrow?” 

Emmanuel listened to Alessandra’s words and looked surprised. 

Mackenzie, who had just stepped out of the car, also paused, and listened attentively. 

“Alright, I understand.” 

Emmanuel furrowed his brows slightly and ended the call. Only then did he realize that Mackenzie had returned to the car. She asked, “What’s wrong?” 

“Ruby and Ryder are getting married. My mom gave the dowry to the Zimmerman family, but Ruby insists on getting a house before agreeing to marry!” Emmanuel summarized. 

Mackenzie also furrowed her brows slightly. Ryder was clearly being manipulated by Ruby. 

However, considering the care he had shown Emmanuel since childhood, as well as his honesty and how well he had been treating Alessandra, Mackenzie couldn’t just ignore him. 

In the next moment, she took out a bank card and handed it to Emmanuel. 

“What are you doing, Mackenzie?” 

Emmanuel was slightly stunned. 

“What are you doing, Mackenzie?” 

Emmanuel was slightly stunned. 

“There are 750 thousand in this card. Use it to buy a house for Ryder so that he can get married without worries. But the property must be registered under Ryder’s name as pre-marital property!” 

Mackenzie instructed. 

She believed that Ruby was trying to deceive Ryder into marriage, but since things had come to this point, Ryder had to marry her. Even if they couldn’t retrieve the dowry, at least the house shouldn’t be taken away by her later. 

“No, he’s my cousin. He’s getting married, and it’s my responsibility to help him…” 

Emmanuel wanted to refuse, but when he saw Mackenzie’s determined gaze, he could only sigh and accept the card. 

“Just let me know once you’ve made the purchase,” Mackenzie said and left, her expression cold and aloof. 

Seriously, we just agreed to fulfill the promise together last night. Ryder is also my cousin, yet he’s still holding back with me! 750 thousand is nothing compared to having to raise 3 billion in assets. 

Snap! 

Little did Mackenzie know that her act of forcing money onto Emmanuel had been captured by Lara, who was hiding nearby. 

“Hmph! Emmanuel, you pretty boy, always asking Mackenzie for money, huh?” 

“No matter what trick you used on her, I will gather evidence and work with the Quillen family to kick you out!” 

“Only Gautier is worthy of her!” 

Lara hid in the car, watching the video and photos she had taken, and smiled with satisfaction. “Beatrix, you clueless girl, how dare you team up with this pretty boy to bully me last night? After I drive him away, let’s see who else you can rely on!” 

In her eyes, Emmanuel was just a pretty boy, ignorant and only capable of taking advantage of women. He knew some martial arts but only used it to exploit women. 

Worthless! 

Useless! 

Nothing but scum!
