Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 35

Chapter 35

Those who laughed and enjoyed Emmanuel’s

misfortune earlier felt their cheeks heat up in

embarrassment.

None of them knew that the man who looked shabby

was, in fact, part of the Quillen family.

When did the Quillen family have a man among them?

Milani’s mind had gone blank, while Chase dared not

utter a word.

Even Claudette couldn’t hide her shock. Emmanuel has

joined the Quillen family? Does he work for them? Or

has he become a live–in son–in–law?

Despite being the center of attention, Emmanuel was

confused as he didn’t know who Beatrix was.

Adam hastily explained, “Ms. Beatrix, I am deeply sorry

for my error. I had absolutely no idea that this man

was your personal guest, nor did I know he was a

member of the esteemed Quillen family!”

“If you don’t know anything, why didn’t you check first?

Isn’t it rude to kick someone out after allowing him

entry?”

Beatrix’s retort struck Adam silent.

At first, he intended to look into the issue further, but

upon overhearing people talking, particularly Milani’s

comment, he made an impulsive decision without

conducting an investigation into Emmanuel’s identity.

This is my fault. If Ms. Beatrix tells Old Mr. Quillen about

this, I’ll get fired tonight.

“I’m really sorry, sir. The inconsiderate treatment you

received was due to my oversight. Please accept my

apology!”

With that, Adam gave a polite bow, seeking

Emmanuel’s forgiveness.

That sight caused everyone’s jaws to drop open in

disbelief.

Emmanuel is just a useless man. Who is he to get

treated this way?

Milani bit her lip, refusing to accept what happened in

front of her face.

Many shared her sentiment, too.

At first, Emmanuel was met with scornful stares, but

now, the people who had regarded him with such

contempt were casting him glances of surprise and

admiration.

Some were even sneaking out of the hall as they were
