Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12

In the next moment, Mackenzie turned on her phone

and tossed it at Emmanuel.

Emmanuel grabbed the phone, but before he could

read the information on the device, he heard

Mackenzie speaking to him in an irresistible tone. “Help

me expedite this project. It needs to be completed

within a month!”

Baffled, he quickly read the content.

Terence Group requested Cloud Construction to build

a large-scale, strategic warehouse. The contract

involved one billion, and the deadline for the project

was the end of the month.

2/15

However, Cloud Construction informed Terence Group

two days ago that the project couldn’t be completed in

time.

Confused, he asked, “Terence Group can recoup the

funds and demand fifty million from Cloud

Construction for breaking the contract if they can’t

complete the project on time. Why are you in a hurry

to get it done?”

In response, Mackenzie smirked as a domineering and

resolute look entered her eyes. “If this warehouse can’t

be completed in time, Terence Group will suffer an

obscene profit loss. It’s not something fifty million can

compensate for. Do you understand?”

Emmanuel was stunned by that look of hers. No

wonder this woman is an executive in a large

corporation. She has an ambition that even a man

doesn’t have! Someone else would’ve been content

earning fifty million, but she wants even more profits! I

didn’t believe her in the past when she said she earns

three billion annually. But now, I think she’s telling the

truth. It’s a shame that the money she earns goes to

the company, not her pocket. Otherwise, she would be

living in a mansion instead of a

two-hundred-square-foot apartment in a residential

area.

Chapter 12 Emmanuel Again

“You think too highly of me, Ms. Quillen.” Suddenly,

Emmanuel smiled. “If Terence Group’s employees in

4/15

charge of this project can’t solve this issue, why do you

think a mere gynecologist like me can pull it off?”

“Useless!” A sigh slipped out of Mackenzie’s mouth.

She wouldn’t have thought much of his response if

other men had told her that instead.

However, because he was her husband, he was a lot

more special in her eyes.

The project was very important, so as the CEO of

Terence Group, she couldn’t just watch it fail without

doing anything to save it.

Of course, she had sent many to urge Cloud

Construction to complete the project in time, but all

returned without success.

Initially, she had already accepted the fact that the

project was botched. However, when she saw

Emmanuel not even flinching despite suffering severe

injuries, she abruptly recalled how he faced five thugs

fearlessly and thought he was a tough nut. That was

why she had unrealistic expectations about him.

“Wait!” Emmanuel didn’t feel great seeing the

disappointment in Mackenzie’s eyes, so he offered, “I’ll

help you out, but if I succeed, you must do one thing

for me in return.”

She turned to face the slightly agitated man and

grinned. I seem to have ignited his fighting spirit by

looking down on him.

“What is it?”

“You’ll have to return home with me to meet my

mother and sister as my wife,” he stated firmly. This is

my best chance to pull it off. If I miss this opportunity,

there’s no telling how long I’ll need to wait before she’s

willing to return home with me.

As she stared at him, her expression shifted multiple

In reality, she still hadn’t acknowledged the marriage.

In fact, she thought it would end at any moment, which

was why she didn’t want anyone else to get involved.

Otherwise, things would only become more

complicated in the future.

However, she didn’t think he would succeed, so she

agreed.
