A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40 

“I got it. Why are you so long–winded when you’re a 

man?” admonished Mackenzie icily. 

After she ended her sentence, she felt it took quite a 

long time to calm herself down. I must admit, life after 

marriage vastly differs from a single life. It seems like 

it’ll take me some time to get used to living with 

another person. 

The next day was Sunday, yet she still left the house at 

half past six in the morning. 

For a workaholic, there were basically no rest days or 

holidays, only work days. 

Sitting in her office, she used her phone to check the 

surveillance footage instead of dealing with her 

matters hurriedly as she always did. 

The edges of her lips curved upward when she thought 

about how Emmanuel didn’t know she could monitor 

everything that happened in the house. I want to see 

what he’s doing when I’m not around. 

Unbeknownst to her, Beatrix just happened to have 

arrived outside her office, secretly watching her. 

“D*mn it! I knew that man was unreliable!” Suddenly, 

Mackenzie slapped her hand on the table because she 

saw him washing her pants by hand. He told me he 

would let the washing machine do the laundry! What 

right does he have to touch my pants? 

Hmph! That’s so personal! Wait a minute… 

The next moment, she instantly blushed because she 

realized why he was doing that. Apparently, he was 

removing her bodily secretion from the pants, which 

was very difficult for a washing machine to do. 

“I’m going to kill that man!” She exploded with rage 

and embarrassment. 

Outside the office, Beatrix thoroughly enjoyed 

watching her sister’s reaction because she rarely got a 

glimpse of that side of her older sibling. 

Suddenly, someone patted her shoulder, frightening 

her and spurring her to turn around. 

“Why are you hiding outside Ms. Quillen’s office, Ms. 

Beatrix?” Lexi couldn’t help but ask. 

Hastily, she argued, “I–I’m not! I came here to learn 

from her!” 

At that moment, she was working as a management 

trainee while studying. 

When she wasn’t busy with her studies or had a 

semester break, she would help her sister out at the 

company and learn how to run a business from her. 

“Here to learn? Why do I feel like you’re peeping at 

her?” While Lexi was a subordinate, she had a good 

relationship with the sisters. 

Hence, when no one was around, she would joke with 

Beatrix. 

“Shh! Don’t talk nonsense!” Immediately, she whispered 

into her ear. “Actually, Grandpa gave me a secret 

mission. He asked me to watch over my sister and her 

husband as well as help them conceive as soon as 

possible.” 

“What?” Lexi was shocked but skeptical. “Are you telling
