Chapter 72
Mackenzie wasn’t interested to listen to his explanation. She delivered a
tight slap across his face, then turned to leave.
Beatrix was stunned. Indeed, those who aren’t involved will always be
more clear-minded. Mackenzie is pissed off at him and has lost her
composure!

“Hear me out, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel grabbed Mackenzie’s wrist.
Despite getting slapped across the face, he was determined to clear
things up.
Xylie panicked and sat on the bed silently. This girl is so beautiful. What’s
her relationship with Emmanuel? They look like a couple, but why did he
address her as Ms. Quillen?
“Hmph! You have thirty seconds to explain yourself. Let’s see what excuses
you can come up with.” Mackenzie couldn’t shake him off. This man is so
strong and brazen! Not a single man has dared to grab my hand in the
twenty-seven years of my life.

“That’s right! Hurry up and make up a story-I mean, explain yourself. Who
knows? If it sounds convincing, we might believe you!” Beatrix was eager
to stir the pot. Although she said she might believe him, she didn’t mean it.
“I came to the bar because I was figuring out ways to fix the logo for the
company. This just happened by accident!” Emmanuel told the truth.
“Wow, that’s a refreshing way to brag.” Mackenzie didn’t believe him.
She turned around and left.
Beatrix stuck out her tongue at Emmanuel and followed suit. Emmanuel is
done for!
“Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel chased after them. At that moment, he couldn’t
be bothered about the project or Xylie. I’m doing all this to bring Mackenzie
home! Yet, she’s dumping me. Mom will be so disappointed! Also, I’ll
embarrass myself in front of Uncle Chester and Uncle Benny tomorrow!
The company’s project doesn’t concern me anymore.
In order to lose Emmanuel, Mackenzie told her driver to speed up and take
shortcuts on the road. I have to get home as quickly as possible and lock
the door to prevent that man from ever coming in!

“Please driver faster and catch up with the woman’s car in front!”
Emmanuel urged his taxi driver.
However, the driver turned around slightly and advised, “You can’t force
someone to love you back, my friend. Why are you stalking the woman? If
things go south, you might end up in jail!”
“Stalk?” Emmanuel was livid. “That’s my wife! Cut your nonsense! I’ll give
you two hundred if you can catch up.”
“Your wife? Sit tight, my friend!” The driver floored the accelerator when he
heard the money offered.
However, there was no way a taxi could catch up with Mackenzie’s luxury
car.
The distance between the two cars grew wider, and her car was soon out
of sight.
Right then, an MPV suddenly appeared from a dark alley, forcing
Mackenzie’s car to stop.
The screeching sound disrupted the peaceful night.
