A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 230

Chapter 230 

The tea-tasting event was held at a place named Divine Tea, which was 

located in a shopping mall. Because of that, it became a favorite thing to do 

for many rich women as they could go shopping after the event. 

Meanwhile, Lexi might only be Mackenzie’s personal secretary, but the 

Summerton family was actually prestigious. Therefore, it wasn’t surprising for 

Lexi to attend the tea–tasting event as she mingled with the other rich 

women. Nonetheless, there was an unexpected guest on that particular 

Saturday. Although Divine Tea was currently occupied with wealthy and 

snobbish women, they were left with their eyes wide open as they stood up in 

disbelief the moment they saw a certain someone. 

“What’s wrong with you people?” Lexi, who was facing away from the door, 

couldn’t help but feel puzzled when she noticed the expressions on the other 

ladies‘ faces. Soon enough, her curiosity prompted her to turn around and 

find out what was going on, in which a surprised look appeared on her face. 

“Ms. Quillen? What brings you here? I remember you haven’t been here for at 

least a year.” She quickly walked up to Mackenzie. 

In the meantime, Mackenzie–a revered figure in Yeringham–was instantly 

surrounded by the ladies around her. Thinking Mackenzie rarely came to an 

event like this, they would never give up on the chance to get to know her 

better. Nonetheless, she only nodded at those people without showing much 

interest in interacting with them. 

Although those ladies didn’t know her well, they didn’t find it surprising to see 

the pricey jewelry she wore on her, as they believed she could afford them. 

As for Lexi, she was too surprised by Mackenzie’s arrival that she didn’t notice 

the necklace around the latter’s neck right away when she saw her. 

Until Claudette approached them and greeted Mackenzie, “Ms. Quillen, you 

look gorgeous today! Is that golden jade phoenix you’re wearing?” It turned 

out that Claudette was the owner of Divine Tea, which gave her a 

respectable status in that place. Thus, her words had instantly given rise to 

audible gasps from the crowd. 

“Hey, I recognize that. That was Thomas Cline’s finest piece of art in the 

auction last night!” 

“Wait, what?! How come Ms. Quillen is wearing it? Could it be that some rich 

guy is trying to win her heart or something?” 

“It seems to me that she does live up to her reputation as the prettiest 

socialite in Yeringham! How charming she is!” 

Regardless of the intentions behind those compliments, Lexi immediately 

caught on to what Mackenzie was up to, being someone who knew her well. 

Ms. Quillen is here to show off, isn’t she? Holy moly! This is unbelievable! 

“Guilty as charged, Ms. Lenoir. You’re too kind.” Mackenzie reacted with a 

beautiful smile that replaced her initial indifferent expression. 

“I have to admit I’m envious of you, Ms. Quillen. I wish I could have a man who 

would do that for me!” Claudette smiled as an unfathomable look flashed 

across her eyes with a slight hostility. 

Mackenzie smiled and said, “You’re a beauty, Ms. Lenoir. I believe there will be 

some men out there who will do anything for you, too. The only question is 

whether they’re your Mr. Right.” 

It was then that the situation began to dawn on Lexi even more. Ah, I see 

4/5 

what’s going on now. Ms. Quillen didn’t come here just to show off. She is here 

to warn somebody. Somebody whom she considers her love rival! The 

reason Lexi thought that way was because Claudette was the other person 

besides herself who knew that Mackenzie was already married. 

Mackenzie knew Claudette would be joining Emmanuel in laser tag later that 

afternoon. Since Mackenzie couldn’t keep her husband from going, she went
