Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 1242

Chapter 1242 Unexpected Negotiations 

Adding Manny’s emotions complicates the situation. He has been there for me since we were young, and I owe him for helping me enter the company and for the best moments of my life. 

Santiago’s advice about not owing favors in our line of work resonates in my mind. Now, Manny needs me to secure 

this contract. 

How can I escape and potentially cause him a significant loss? 

No, I can’t do it! 

After collecting his thoughts, Shane declared, “Let’s pretend I’m being possessed! Close my eyes and act like I don’t know anything!” Then, he returned to the Titan Group office. 

Meanwhile, Lola and Lily were unaware of his plan to run away. It was already past 6 p.m., and they were leaving work. Coincidentally, they saw Shane returning to the office. They encouraged him, “Shanny, we’re counting on you tonight! Our bonus depends on you, so keep it up!” 

They’re not the ones being possessed; of course, they can talk without feeling the pain. Shane returned to the reception room alone, sighing as he went. 

At this time, Ms. Wenlocke had just finished an important meeting and entered the meeting room to meet Shane, 

but the meeting room was empty. 

As she was about to leave, she suddenly noticed a foul smell. 

Ms. Wenlocke wondered, Strange! Who would dare to bring something sour in since all the employees of Titan Group know I’m a clean freak who loves cleanliness and fresh air? 

To confirm the source of the smell, she took a deep breath and detected it from a coat hanging on a nearby chair. 

However, Shane walked in and witnessed the scene! 

As Shane watched Ms. Wenlocke sniffing his coat, fear overtook him, and he almost lost control of his bladder. 

He quickly turned around and ran outside, gritting his teeth and cursing in his heart, How strange! Why is the old witch so interested in me? Now, she even fell in love with my belongings! I’m so charming that it becomes a problem 

for me. Sigh! 

Unaware of Shane’s presence, Ms. Wenlocke put the coat back with a disgusted expression. She fanned her nose 

and walked out. 

She thought, If it were one of the company’s employees with such a sour smell, I would fire them. However, I must tolerate it since it is from the person in charge of M&L Group. 

As Ms. Wenlocke was leaving the room, she accidentally collided with Shane, who was entering the meeting room. 

“Ah!” she exclaimed.

As Ms. Wenlocke was leaving the room, she accidentally collided with Shane, who was entering the meeting room. 

“Ah!” she exclaimed. 

Startled by the collision, Shane accidentally knocked her down. However, he quickly held her with one hand to 

prevent any harm to her old bones, acting out of humanitarianism. 

At that moment, their eyes met, and everything seemed to freeze. 

Ms. Wenlocke felt relieved and blinked her eyes, thanking him with a smile, “Young man, thank you for catching me!” 

Shane felt goosebumps all over his body as he heard her words. He wondered, D*mn! Is she flirting with me? He quickly helped her up, wiped his arm, and responded coldly, “You’re welcome.” 

“Mr. Murphy, shall we start discussing business? By the way, have you had dinner?” Ms. Wenlocke asked him warmly, considering Mr. Smith’s instructions to treat the guest well and finalize the contract details.
