Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 1446

Chapter 1446 The Mercurial Nature of Humanity 

Chapter 1446 

In the blink of an eye, Susan appeared out of nowhere and tightly embraced Gautier, 

bubbling with excitement. 

As Emmanuel watched Gautier leave, a hint of emotion stirred within him. It reminded 

him that in the business world, friendships and rivalries are never permanent. 

In the depths of his mind, Emmanuel silently reasoned. Regardless of what Gautier 

might be thinking, he should be leaning towards the Terence Group now. After all, with 

the Quillen family falling, there is no advantage left for the Verkade family. If the Quillen 

family thrives, perhaps the Verkade family can still benefit, or they may have a chance 

to make a comeback! 

“Hey, Emmanuel, where have you been?” As Emmanuel returned, his uncle’s family had 

already arrived, and Jack Lowe was teasing him. 

“Sorry, I just got caught up with something,” Emmanuel responded casually.

Emmanuel pondered silently. No matter how look at it, Jack’s family does not seem to 

be the conniving type. But could they be bribed by someone to infiltrate us? 

“Forget it. Let’s grab a bite to eat! I am hungry!” Jack waved his hand, ready to lead the 

group straight to dinner. 

Emmanuel then noticed that Jack’s wife, Alina Mcneil, and her family were also 

accompanying Jack’s family to Onza. 

Alina leaned into Jack, holding his arm affectionately. ‘Honey, my parents rarely visit 

Onza. You must take them out for some good food!’ 

“Of course, your husband is loaded now! Anything less than a five-star restaurant, and 

will not even feel at home!” Jack boasted in his usual laid-back manner. 

Alina, always one to enjoy the spotlight, quickly turned to her family and said, “Dad, 

Mom, Cherlynn, look, my husband is really great!”

The Mcneil family began praising Jack enthusiastically. “Yeah, Jack is really 

up-and-coming!” 

“My brother-in-law is amazing,” one person said. “He runs his own company and dines 

at five-star restaurants every day. It is impressive!” 

The Mcneils, rural folks who seldom ventured into big cities, hardly ever dined at 

five-star restaurants. Consequently, they held great admiration for individuals like Jack. 

Basking in the compliments, Jack’s ego swelled, and he confidently waved his hand. 

“Let’s go. I heard there is a five-star restaurant nearby called The Shallow Waterside 

Chef’s Kitchen, which is very famous in Nuthana. Today, I will take you all there to try it!” 

As Jack and Alina led the way, the members of the McNeil family quickly followed 

behind. 

“Emmanuel, why don’t we all go together?” Alessandra suggested, feeling that since

they were relatives and had come to Onza together, splitting up for dinner would feel 

awkward.

“Sure! Mom, I will give you all a ride there!” Emmanuel agreed, realizing he rarely had the 

chance to take Alessandra to upscale restaurants. So, he wanted to seize this 

opportunity to show his filial duty. 

Tia also urged Ryder to join them in Emmanuel’s business car. 

Alina’s sister, Cherlynn McNeil, turned back to Emmanuel and the others, her brows 

furrowed as she asked, “Jack, are they your relatives?” 

The Ryder family, as well as Emmanuel’s mother and himself, were not very partic 

about their clothes. Especially Ryder and Alessandra, they looked like two old farme 

appearing quite shabby! 

“Hey, Cherlynn, haven’t you met them before? Jack said casually. “That’s the family of

my 

older cousin and second older cousin.” 

Cherlynn sneered at Emmanuel’s family. “Hmm, I have met them before, but they don’t 

leave much of an impression, especially since they seem like just ordinary people. Their 

car is not impressive either. If they were as successful as you, Jack, then people would 

remember them!” she did not miss the opportunity to flatter Jack with a resounding 

compliment.
