Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 1370

Chapter 1370 A Woman’s Grudge

The Quillen family had just submitted their membership application and were not yet official members of the chamber of commerce.

“Emmanuel, are you going?”

Mackenzie glanced at Emmanuel and sensed that the invitation was not specifically for her.

“Since the president’s invitation is for the Quillen family, the head of the family should make the decision!” Emmanuel replied with a slight smile.

She nodded in agreement. President Silverbane’s invitation was a rare occurrence, so regardless of the target, they should attend to see what he wanted.

Mackenzie instructed Lexi and Beatrix to return home first, while she and Emmanuel headed to meet Stanley.

Lexi sensed something unusual that day, especially when Aidan glanced at Zaiden subconsciously when Mackenzie went up on stage. She knew that the matter must be related to the Summerton family.

Although she rarely paid attention to the Summerton family’s affairs, the involvement of the Terence Group in the day’s events compelled her to take action.

She decided to visit Zaiden’s house alone and waited at the door. After a while, she spotted Zaiden and his wife stepping out of a car.

“Uncle Zaiden, Aunt Althea!”

“Lexi, is that you? It’s been a while!”

Zaiden greeted Lexi warmly while embodying the demeanor of an uncle meeting his niece.

On the other hand, Althea appeared colder than before. She harbored displeasure toward Lexi for leaving the Summerton family’s business to work for the Quillen family in Yeringham. However, since Lexi was not her daughter, she was unable to take any action.

Now, because of her hatred for the Lowe siblings and her resentment toward the Quillen family, she naturally had an even worse attitude toward Lexi!

“Uncle Zaiden, did you do something in the chamber of commerce? Why are you targeting the Quillen family? Is there a conflict between you?”

Lexi, known for her gentle nature, maintained a polite tone even while questioning Zaiden.

Julian coincidentally emerged from the house and observed the trio conversing at the door. He discreetly eavesdropped, assuming that Lexi had visited for a significant reason.

“Lexi, I had no other choice!”

Zaiden sighed and admitted that he did not anticipate Aidan’s actions toward the Quillen family’s application.

“Could you provide an explanation? If you are compelled, I will convey it to Ms. Quillen. Our families could form an alliance and collaborate in the future. It is unwise for you to create unnecessary enemies!”

She considered not only Zaiden but also her own interests and the Summerton family’s well-being. Despite the Quillen family’s non-membership status, their possession of the Heart of the Sun indicated significant potential. Making a wrong choice could lead to regret in the future for the Summerton family.
