A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 45

Chapter 45 

“Haha! Do you think pretending to be dead will work on 

me?” Joel swaggered out of the room and saw 

Alessandra lying on the ground in pain. Not only did he 

not show any sympathy, but he also remarked 

sarcastically, “It’s not going to work, but I might pray for 

you if you were to die here!” 

The medical staff at the scene couldn’t help but think 

that Joel was inhumane and too arrogant. 

A VIP ward was located at the end of the corridor, 

which was reserved for their distinguished customers. 

Since the Quillen family was one of the hospital investors, Mackenzie was also staying in that VIP ward. 

Upon hearing the commotion, Lexi couldn’t stop herself 

from exiting the ward and checking things out. After 

that, she rushed back into the ward and exclaimed, 

“Things don’t look good, Ms. Quillen! Emmanuel’s mom 

is lying on the floor in the corridor.” 

Mackenzie narrowed her eyes in response. After giving 

it some thought, she endured the pain of her stomach flu and went to the entrance to check the situation out. 

At that moment, Emmanuel was clenching his fists, but 

he wasn’t having a go at Joel. Instead, he was busy 

trying to lessen the pain Alessandra was suffering 

from. 

“He’s a patient man! If it were me, I would’ve started beating that bald man up!” Lexi grumbled. 

On the other hand, Mackenzie was smiling, and it seemed like she had a different viewpoint. “Have you 

not heard about a saying, Lexi?” 

“Huh? What is it, Ms. Quillen?” Lexi was slightly stumped. 

“To lose patience is to lose the battle,” Mackenzie 

revealed. 

Lexi shuddered lightly, and she seemed to have 

understood what Mackenzie said. Is Ms. Quillen * 

admiring Emmanuel’s patience? 

Indeed, if Emmanuel were to beat Joel up, he would 

only worsen the situation. In fact, Alessandra could 

even get kicked out of the hospital. When Emmanuel 

chose to treat Alessandra, not only was he making her 

feel better, but he was also avoiding unnecessary 

conflicts. Hence, he knew his priority was to get a room 

for Alessandra. 

“Haha! You can play dead all you want! I’m never 

letting you have this room!” Joel provoked Emmanuel 

and Alessandra again before returning to his ward, 

crossing his legs, and lying on the bed leisurely. 

Seeing that, a lot of the medical staff were murmuring 

among themselves. 

Emmanuel, however, merely kept mum and brought 

Alessandra away from there. 

Since there wasn’t any empty ward in the internal 

medicine department, Emmanuel had to bring 

Alessandra to Department of Gynecology. Once he 

settled Alessandra down, he looked forward to settling 

scores with Joel. 

Click! 

The moment the commotion in the corridor subsided, 

someone opened the door to Joel’s ward. 

“Who the f*ck is it this time around?” Joel was 

annoyed. Why is staying in this hospital such a hassle? 

When he saw two beautiful ladies walking in, he 

immediately got out of bed and smiled respectfully. 

“Hi, Ms. Quillen. What brought you here?” 

Mackenzie wasn’t in the mood to chat with him, so she 

asked, “I want this ward. May I have it?” 

“What?” Joel froze momentarily. What’s with this ward? 

Why are so many people after it? 

“Quick! Give me an answer!” Mackenzie shot him a 

sharp gaze. 

Joel shivered when he saw the look in Mackenzie’s 

eyes. How can I say no to her? 

Since Joel’s company was working on a collaboration 

with Terence Group, he knew he was at Mackenzie’s 

mercy. 

“Haha! It’s an honor to be staying in the same ward as 

you, Ms. Quillen!” Joel uttered.
