Chapter 97
Fortunately for him, Hubert was another imbecile who knew alarmingly
little. Thus, he relaxed his furrowed brow before giving a great guffaw of
laughter. “Just as well. I can gift it to Mackenzie!”
He was convinced she would be moved by his sincerity in sending a batch
of local supplements to her the day before and following up with another
batch of overseas products.
Thus, his mind was made up. Hubert left once again to procure another
bouquet of roses and arrived later that day at the entrance of Yociam
Residence to intercept Mackenzie on her way back from work.
If he was being honest, he found it strange as well. Why would Mackenzie
live here instead of at the Quillen residence?
Unfortunately, nobody would tell him the truth, so he contented himself
with the inference that it was closer to her office. A workaholic like
Mackenzie would undoubtedly want to shorten her commute.

“Mr. Verkade is here again, Ms. Quillen!”
The driver announced Hubert’s arrival when he found him standing at the

making it impossible for anybody to get close to her.

Helpless, Hubert implored the guard to hand Mackenzie his gift.
Later that night, Emmanuel arrived home from his part–time job and saw
once again the pile of gifts and the bouquet of roses at the front door.
hauling in.
“I promise you I’d thrown them away yesterday, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel
explained quickly. “I’ve no idea how they turned up again!”
Mackenzie was seized by an impulse to laugh at the sight of his panic.
