Chapter 124
However, she didn’t want her mother to worry about Emerson’s safety
either.
“We’re family here, Roselynn. You wouldn’t sit by and do nothing, would

He was determined to take full advantage of Roselynn’s dilemma.
“Roselynn does not have eighty thousand, so you can forget about asking
her for money! We still have three days, so let’s try to come up with an

take care of this, so you don’t have to do anything on your end. We don’t
owe Uncle Emerson anything, so we are not responsible for the
consequences of his own actions. He has only himself to blame for what
happens to him.”
Roselynn felt the same way about the situation. “That’s right! Uncle
did it to himself!”
It was almost noon at the time. Mackenzie had her driver take her to a
Not only did she summon Beatrix to join her for lunch, but she also had Lexi
come over.
“It’s a Saturday, Mackenzie. Shouldn’t you be staying home with Manuel
instead? Why would you ask us out for lunch?” Beatrix protested.
She had been very busy lately after taking over some projects at work, so
out of bed just to have lunch with her!
