Chapter 92
“What’s going on? I don’t remember locking the door,” Emmanuel
muttered under his breath as he tried to open the door.
He was sure he only closed the door and did not lock it.
Only one possible scenario exists; Mackenzie must have locked the door.
Likely she didn’t know I was out of the house and went to lock the door
when she pa*sed by the living room since it was nearing bedtime. What
do I do now?
Emmanuel knew pressing the doorbell would not work if Mackenzie was
already in her room with the door closed. With the exceptional

She could not explain her actions, but perhaps the earlier sight of
Emmanuel and Claudette together prompted her to do so. She felt they
looked more compatible, and thus, she decided to give them her blessing.
Well, go and find Claudette since you can’t enter the house!
