A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 578

Chapter 578 

“Hmph! I’m a woman of my word! So what if I lose the bet? I’ll find myself a 

boyfriend!” Beatrix immediately patted her chest as she declared. 

In actuality, witnessing Mackenzie’s sweet yet complex marriage had her 

secretly yearning to experience the taste of love for herself. The problem is, 

where can I find someone like Emmanuel? Ugh. Why am I even thinking about 

finding a man like him? 

“Well, I’ll help you find one today,” Mackenzie added. 

“Huh? Today?” Beatrix resisted, saying, “The men attending today are those 

spoiled rich brats like Hubert. Why would I want them?” 

“Hubert is here too?” Mackenzie frowned. 

Lexi quickly chimed in. “Ms. Quillen, the Verkade family is known for being 

fickle and unscrupulous. They may have resorted to seeking a marriage 

alliance since they failed to bring us down in the business world even with 

the support of the Lenoir family.” 

“Pfft! In their dreams!” Beatrix immediately stated, “Hubert better behave 

himself today. If he dares to make any disgusting moves, I won’t hesitate to 

put him in his place!” 

Witnessing her fierce demeanor, Lexi and Mackenzie exchanged knowing 

smiles. Finding a boyfriend for her within a month may be challenging! 

At that moment, the reunion dinner was about to commence on the top floor 

banquet hall. 

More than half of the attendees were filled with anticipation and curiosity as 

rumors had already circulated about Mackenzie’s secret marriage. What 

made it even more intriguing was that her husband was a nobody! 

“Everyone praises Ms. Quillen for her exceptional wisdom and extraordinary 

foresight, but I dare say she’s blind! Mr. Verkade has been sincerely pursuing 

her for years, yet she rejected him and instead chose to marry a worthless 

nobody!” At the table, a man dressed in a white suit struck a pretentious 

pose, raising his wine glass with a sneer as he spoke. 

As all eyes immediately turned to Hubert beside him, he was clearly in a sour 

mood and downed another glass of wine. 

A while ago, the Verkade family had teamed up with the Lenoir family to 

crush the Quillen family in the business world. He eagerly anticipated their 

downfall, hoping it would give him more leverage when he eventually tried to 

marry Mackenzie. However, to his surprise, the Lenoir family had backed out 

halfway, and now, it appeared that Mackenzie intended to publicly announce 

her relationship with Emmanuel. This turn of events had crumbled his hopes 

and eliminated his chance to pursue her! 

The mere thought of the woman he had loved for years becoming someone 

else’s plaything was unbearable. It felt as if someone was constantly tugging 

at his pain receptors, and the torment would only cease when a bloody strip 

was ripped away. 

“Mr. Verkade, you appear rather distressed.” The man in the white suit leaned 

closer to Hubert’s ear and whispered, “How about I lend you a hand in getting 

your hands on her before that nobody does? Wouldn’t that be more thrilling 

than anything else?” 

Hubert’s spirits immediately lifted upon hearing this. With his experience in

wooing women, he could easily discern that Mackenzie had not yet been 

intimate with Emmanuel, judging from the way she walked like a novice who 

still guarded her chastity with tightly closed legs. If he was destined to fail in
