Chapter 35
Those who laughed and enjoyed Emmanuel’s
misfortune earlier felt their cheeks heat up in
embarra*sment.
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.
