A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 1165

Chapter 1165 Can I Try? 

Then, she swept her haughty gaze across everyone before landing smugly on Beatrix, who was feeling a mix of emotions, mostly nervousness. 

Lo and behold, the machinery emitted a sizzling sound, making one’s scalps tingle. 

“Oh no, this is the prelude to failure!” a researcher immediately exclaimed. 

“Lara, shut down the equipment now!” Mackenzie promptly ordered. 

7- 

Proud and wholly confident seconds ago, Lara was now caught off guard by the unexpected. However, she was still reluctant to stop when the results had yet to come out. 

As she hesitated, the storage container burst open with a boom. 

“Ah!” Lara screamed, watching the explosive fragments flying toward her. 

Just when she thought she was doomed, a figure quickly tackled her to the ground, saving her from harm. 

“Emmanuel?!” Mackenzie involuntarily exclaimed, hurrying over. 

“Lara!” 

“Lara, are you okay!” 

The older Quillen ladies also hurried forward. Terence, too, went to inquire about the situation with the support of 

his cane. 

Fortunately, Emmanuel tackled Lara in time, preventing her from getting hurt. 

However, Lara didn’t even say thank you. She quickly got up, stared at the burst container with wide eyes, and exclaimed in confusion, “Why… Pourquoi?!” 

Seeing Lara in her current state, Beatrix couldn’t help but chuckle. If she took a picture of Lara’s current appearance, it would surely ward off evil spirits if hung on the wall. 

Everyone wore a disappointed expression. The older Quillen ladies sighed, expressing a transition from hope to disappointment for Lara. 

In the eyes of their elders, Lara was a genius in this field, a potential future star of the Quillen family who deserved special attention. Yet, it had come to this…. 

“Mackenzie, how about I give it a try? I might know where the problem lies,” Emmanuel volunteered suddenly. 

“What?!” the older Quillen ladies exclaimed immediately. 

09:16 Sat,

Beatrix was equally surprised. She had no idea her brother-in-law had such abilities. 

Even Mackenzie was clueless about this. However, she didn’t express as much surprise as others. Instead, she looked at Emmanuel and asked seriously, “Are you really sure about this?” 

Emmanuel nodded. 

The older Quillen ladies exchanged glances. 

Lara immediately scoffed, “Huh, don’t pretend! How can you possibly succeed when even I failed to understand something so profound?! Forget it. You won’t succeed. Don’t try your luck!” 

Emmanuel didn’t respond. 

Instead, Beatrix retorted, “What, you’re allowed to try your luck and fail, but others aren’t allowed to try their luck 

and succeed?!” 

“Beatrix! I’ve tolerated you long enough!” Lara, talented in academics but emotionally immature, could easily be provoked to anger. She roared while rushing toward Beatrix “You have no skills yourself, always envious of me! Always wanting to see me fail! I’ll show you who’s boss!” 

“I was just speaking the truth. Was I wrong?” 

The cousins refused to back down. 

“Enough!” Terence roared.
