“Mr. Langstrom, I’m counting on you to expand our business to the market in
the Southeast region.” Mackenzie spoke coldly, demonstrating her efficiency
in delegating duties. As soon as she dismissed the meeting, everybody else
left, whereupon she sat down in her seat in exhaustion. At that moment, Lexi
was the only one who was still keeping her company in the conference room.
“It’s been two weeks, but why hasn’t that moron responded to my message?”
Mackenzie gently rubbed her temples and murmured to herself, although
she sounded like she was asking someone a question.
As someone who knew Mackenzie well, Lexi had been carefully observing her
for the past few days. Until she saw how concerned Mackenzie was about
Emmanuel, she never thought her boss would miss a man so dearly.
Maybe it’s true that the power of love is unimaginable. Lexi nudged her own.
glasses, complimenting herself for making a smart move to stay single. It
looks like I’m doing the right thing without dating anyone, or I’m going to be
the one suffering.
“Answer me, Lexi.”
When Mackenzie set her piercing gaze upon Lexi, the latter felt shivers
running down her spine and quickly answered, “Ms. Quillen, everyone across
the city knows whom you’re looking for. They’re just not sure if you’re the one
who sent that message. We’ve done everything we could, but Emmanuel is
still nowhere to be found, which can only mean one thing-he is out of
Yeringham.
“Damn it!” Mackenzie clenched her fists. “I’m going to make him pay for this
when I find him!”
Lexi couldn’t help but shudder at the sight of Mackenzie’s intimidating eyes,
thinking Emmanuel would never dare show up again if he saw her menacing
expression. Suddenly, Mackenzie heard a notification alert from her phone
and saw an incoming message. Upon skimming through the text, she was
seen with her mouth slightly wide agape, her face changing. The next
moment, she rose from her seat and walked straight out the door.
“Where are you going, Ms. Quillen?” Lexi asked in a panicky manner, following
closely behind Mackenzie.
