Chapter 745
“Tommy! Tommy!” Ryder quickly returned to the room and noticed that
something was wrong with Tommy.
He quickly hugged the boy. “Don’t listen to your mother. No, I mean, don’t
listen to that woman. She’s driving a wedge between us. She’s up to
something bad.”
Tommy nodded, but his eyes were slightly red. That night, Alessandra stayed
at Ryder’s house to keep them company.
She also gave Ryder some advice, telling him to take the initiative tomorrow
because it was difficult to encounter a decent girl like Tia.
Emmanuel, on the other hand, went to the company at 8 p.m. to pick
Mackenzie up. He briefly told her about what happened today.
“That Abellyn Sheppard might’ve spread the rumors intentionally.” Mackenzie

“Yeah.” He nodded, impressed by his wife’s intelligence. He didn’t realize she
wasn’t as emotionally clueless as he was.
“Unfortunately, I’m not available tomorrow. So, you might have to invite
someone else.”
This time, Mackenzie didn’t guess correctly. She thought he wanted the two of
them to go together, along with Tia and Ryder.
“Oh, it’s alright.” Emmanuel hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
She suddenly felt something was off and stared at him coldly. “Okay, so you
