Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56

No matter what, I’ll have to confront her tonight and

get a confirmation.

Having made up his mind, Emmanuel went home after

getting off work and waited for Mackenzie’s return

anxiously.

To his frustration, Mackenzie came home later than

usual, not arriving until half past ten.

“Ms. Quillen, you came home later than usual today,

huh?” Emmanuel broke the silence.

Mackenzie was busy. She gave her husband a grunt

instead of a verbal response. Obviously, she was going

to grab her pajamas, take a shower, and go to bed.

Emmanuel knew she would sleep at eleven sharp, so

he stood in front of her, blocking her path.

“What is it?” Mackenzie frowned.

“Ms. Quillen, you promised to pay my family a visit, so

my mom has gone out of her way to make all the

necessary arrangements, even inviting our relatives. If

you were to suddenly change your mind and not

come, I wouldn’t be able to explain it to her.”

After a pause, he added, “If you don’t keep your word,

I’ll have no choice but to let your grandpa know.”

Mackenzie scoffed in disdain.

Everyone knows I hate being threatened. I can’t believe

he’s so bold to threaten me!

Despite the fact that she had made a commitment to go and visit his family earlier, she changed her mind

later as she believed he had spent a romantic evening

with someone else.

Now that the truth had been unveiled, she couldn’t

help but think that he was a fool.

“Since you brought this up, I have a task that I need

you to complete.”

“What is it, Ms. Quillen?” Emmanuel asked politely.

I can do anything as long as she agrees to meet my

family.

“I promised to visit your family if Cloud Construction’s

project ends on time, but a minor problem has

occurred.”

Mackenzie retrieved a flash drive and placed it in front of him. “Following today’s strategic meeting, we have

come to the conclusion that the logo for the building

must be changed. Tomorrow, you need to persuade

Cloud Construction to alter the logo in accordance

with the new design without compromising the

timeline of the project.”

Emmanuel’s brows scrunched up, but he accepted the

flash drive nonetheless.

He knew that Mackenzie wasn’t trying to make things

difficult for him on purpose. She had just helped his

mother out, so he was obliged to return her favor.

“Good luck!” Mackenzie parted her lips to utter some

words of encouragement for formality’s sake before
