A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156 

Mackenzie remained unaware of the drama befalling her husband. 

She was occupied with a routine meeting at the offices of Terence Group. 

As usual, Beatrix secretly scrolled through her phone during the meeting, and 

her gaze suddenly landed on a shocking headline. 

“What are you doing, Beatrix Quillen?” 

She felt Mackenzie’s razor–sharp gaze on her a second later. 

Beatrix shuddered involuntarily, aware that her cousin was a fair and 

fearsome boss who would chew anyone out for getting distracted in a 

meeting. 

She hastily rushed to Mackenzie’s side and whispered, “I’m not slacking, 

Mackenzie! Look at this headline! Manuel’s being cyberbullied!” 

“What?” 

Mackenzie released a near–imperceptible sigh and swiped the phone from 

Beatrix’s outstretched hand. Once she read the headline, she stood up and 

declared curtly, “Meeting’s over. Dismissed!” 

She strode out of the conference room, leaving behind a roomful of 

bewildered management staff. 

Lexi caught up to Beatrix and asked, “What happened, Ms. Beatrix? Why does 

Ms. Mackenzie seem so anxious?” 

“Hehe, that’s a secret!” 

Beatrix was determined to keep her lips zipped. Lexi will find out eventually. 

As expected, Lexi was summoned to the CEO’s office a moment later, where 

Mackenzie handed over her list of tasks to her personal assistant. 

Mackenzie boarded her Bentley shortly after and headed straight for Beacon 

Hospital. 

She knew Hermann’s family was anything but good news. I told Emmanuel he 

shouldn’t have given them a single cent. Now look what happened! He gives 

them money, and they repay his kindness by turning him into a public 

enemy! 

Mackenzie was worried about the well–being of Emmanuel’s family if the lies 

continued to be perpetuated by the cyberbullies. 

I’m his family now, and I won’t allow this to happen. 

Her car pulled onto the grounds of Beacon Hospital at lunchtime.

Emmanuel had taken half a day off to lay low because of the cyberbullying 

incident. Addison agreed with his decision. 

When Mackenzie walked into the Department of Gynecology’s building, she 

immediately spotted a group of colleagues surrounding and encouraging 

Emmanuel. 

“We know you well, Dr. Lowe. The news on the Internet must be fake! We’ll 

never believe them.” 

“That’s right! The truth will prevail. You must stay strong till then!” 

Emmanuel was moved by his colleagues‘ unwavering support. 

He would never insist on proclaiming his innocence because he believed his 

true friends would support him regardless. There was no point in explaining 

himself to anyone else. 

Mackenzie could not help but smile at the sight. Who knew this silly man got 

along so well with his colleagues? Perhaps he wasn’t acting the part of a 

gentleman in front of Grandpa at all. 

A sharp–eyed Frederick noticed Mackenzie’s arrival and discreetly elbowed 

Emmanuel to grab his attention. 

Emmanuel promptly cut short his conversation with his colleagues and 

headed for the main entrance where Mackenzie awaited. 

Instead of looking at her husband, Mackenzie’s gaze was affixed to the Lenoir 

family heiress, who followed Emmanuel around like a puppy. 

“Why are you here, Ms. Quillen?” Claudette greeted Mackenzie civilly. The
