Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 137

Chapter 137

Beatrix was in disbelief as she looked at Emmanuel and then at Mackenzie.

to pretend to be poor.

Taking advantage of Emmanuel’s obliviousness, Mackenzie made her way

toward him.

Beatrix decided not to disturb Mackenzie and her husband any further. She

swiftly retreated from the scene along with the bodyguards.

was now willingly holding a man’s hand.

Even though it was just the act of holding his sleeve, it signified a remarkable

breakthrough nonetheless.

unison outside the hotel.

Ignoring her subordinates, Eve walked out of the hotel and fixed her gaze on

the departing couple.

What a beauty! He certainly has excellent taste!
