Chapter 189
Emmanuel couldn’t help but feel a little angry when he heard that. “How
could you say that, Ms. Quillen? I just didn’t want these tickets to go to waste.
That’s all! Besides, you know how it is. You’re the only female companion I
could find to go with me. I don’t want to go there with some other guy, you
know?”
Pfft! Who would’ve thought this gynecologist is actually straight?
Mackenzie let out a snicker when she heard that, but she was quick to regain
her composure and asked coldly, “What about Claudette, then?”
“Oh, you’re right!”
Oblivious to the fact that Mackenzie had said that on purpose, Emmanuel
realized he could give the ticket to Claudette instead.
Mackenzie got angry when she saw him getting ready to leave.
“Hold it right there!”
“What is it, Ms. Quillen?”
Emmanuel turned around, only to see that Mackenzie’s cheeks were puffed

Before he even realized what was going on, she reached out and snatched
the two tickets out of his hands.
Wait a minute… Aren’t these the two tickets that Quintus had when he tried to

concert, so why do I feel like my heart is pounding faster than usual? Oh, no…
This simply won’t do!
“We had an agreement! An agreement!” Emmanuel mumbled to himself
while trying to calm himself down.
I can’t fall in love with Mackenzie, or it will hurt me even more when she files
for a divorce.
Emmanuel headed over to Terence Group to pick Mackenzie up the next day.
Mackenzie was wearing a violet silk dress with a white shawl draped over her
shoulders. That outfit complemented her beautiful face really well and made
her look all the more graceful and elegant.
Emmanuel couldn’t help but pause in disbelief when he saw her. Whoa… Am I
really going to a concert with such a gorgeous woman? I’m not dreaming,
am I?
“What’s the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?” Mackenzie asked
with a slightly smug grin on her face as she got into the passenger seat.
“You look amazing, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel exclaimed.
Mackenzie liked how he would behave like an airhead at times. “You’ve told
