Chapter 1259 Unethical And Unprincipled Questions
“No one!”
Although Mackenzie was suppressing her emotions, her voice was noticeably gloomy, like an impending storm.
“She’s being too reckless. Mackenzie, you have to stop her!”
Emmanuel was extremely anxious. Sage had already informed him that another killer had silenced the shooter from that night before the police arrived. Based on all the evidence, it was highly likely that Gautier had orchestrated the entire incident to manipulate public opinion and blackmail Mackenzie.
“All right. If I can make it in time, I’ll attend Ryder’s wedding.”
After ending the call, she was filled with mixed emotions.
Lara’s reckless actions had certainly angered her, but what troubled her more was the word “emotion.”
She didn’t know if she was manipulating Tia’s feelings. At the same time, she wondered if Lara and Gautier were manipulating her emotions.
Were emotions merely a matter of manipulation?
Perhaps they were. Wasn’t the process of men pursuing women and women pursuing men a form of emotional manipulation? Otherwise, where would all the instances of love at first sight come from?
At that moment, dozens of journalists and business people had gathered at the Infinite broadcasting building in,
Yeringham.
Ashton was among them!
She wasn’t there on assignment, but she hadn’t seen Emmanuel in many days, and when she heard the news about the cooperation between the Quillen family and the Verkade family, she wanted to come and join in the gossip.
Recently, there had been so much gossip news about Gautier and Mackenzie in Yeringham that even she, a policewoman who disliked entertainment gossip, came across it every day.
After all, they were prominent figures in Yeringham’s business world. Everyone was quite enthusiastic about such news. The popularity continued to rise, and the media were all competing to report on it as they were eager to
make money!
She didn’t know if Mackenzie was secretly betraying Emmanuel by having an affair with Gautier or if someone behind the scenes was paying to hype up a romantic connection between them.
Ashton still hoped it was the latter. Although Emmanuel, that annoying ghost, always made her angry, she knew that his feelings for Mackenzie ran deep. If he was being betrayed by Mackenzie, he would undoubtedly be devastated, right?
No!
No!
Ashton shook her head. Emmanuel and Mackenzie were both so annoying. Why should she sympathize with them? Hmph! What did it have to do with her? She just wanted to enjoy the show!
“Hey… Isn’t that Susan?”
Ashton walked out of the news hall of the broadcasting building and strolled around the front garden. She didn’t see Emmanuel and Mackenzie, but she did spot another annoying person.
Compared to Emmanuel and Mackenzie, Ashton really disliked Susan!
As a prominent family in Onza, the Summerton family had a lot of dealings with the Silverbane family. Ashton had clashed with Susan since childhood, or rather, she looked down on women like Susan from the bottom of her
heart.
Susan was impulsive, unreasonable, and very immature!
So, Ashton had no intention of going over to greet her upon seeing her now.
Susan was also engaged in conversation with a lady from Yeringham, so she naturally didn’t notice Ashton.
“Mackenzie is here!”
