Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 1670 The Old Man
Chapter 1670
Mackenzie could not help but ask the question.
Hattieâs eyes were full of sadness and helplessness. âMy mother is also in
Airspace Group and ranks higher than Yasmine!â
âThen, why wonât she try saving you?â Mackenzie asked, puzzled.
Hattieâs sadness deepened. âTo her, Magnus and I are just unwanted kids. She
only married my father for one reason and cut ties with the Zelinksy family
after we were born. She no longer wants us.â
âI see,â comforted Mackenzie, who was sympathetic about Hattieâs plight and
grateful that Hattie trusted her enough to share her life story.
âYasmine is targeting your unborn baby as she believes heâll turn into the King
of the Dark Night someday. The baby might not come back with you if you
head to the Dark Night Islands,â warned Hattie in an attempt to dissuade
Mackenzie from endangering herself.

âOh,â answered Mackenzie, recognizing the seriousness of the problem. âGet
some rest here as youâve consumed the special medicine. I have something
to deal with.â
She rose to her feet, not really needing to deal with anything but craving
some time alone. She either had to watch Hattie die and never pry into her
parentsâ secrets, or she had to risk her babyâs safety for a gamble. Both
choices unsettled her.

She felt exhausted on her return journey and asked her driver to park the car
temporarily so she could get some air.
âPull over, Wally.â
âAlright, Ms. Quillen.â Wally obeyed her request.
âMs. Quillen, Emmanuel said not to move around!â reminded Lexi when
helping Mackenzie from the car. Despite the numerous bodyguards around
them, neither Emmanuel nor Sage were present. Regular bodyguards might
not be effective against a powerful adversary.

âIâm okay,â Mackenzie knew that her recent appointment as the Nuthana
president meant she had not offended anyone yet, not to mention that
Emmanuel had his formidable Grandmaster reputation. Anyone who dared
provoke him would suffer terrible consequences, so she was not worried
about assassins.
Mackenzieâs stubbornness made Lexi hesitate, but the latter had no choice.
âMadam, I can feel something dark inside you, which can worsen if itâs not
dealt with,â an intriguing old man suddenly appeared before them.
Lexi trembled, unsure of when he had arrived as she had not seen him.
Mackenzie had the same reaction, and sensed this was an extraordinary man
who had somehow been waiting for her. Well, she just had to deal with this
then.
Knowing it was unavoidable, Mackenzie settled right in front of his stall, which
worried Lexi somewhat, but the latter did not dare speak rashly. He had long
hair and a long beard, was clad in gray robes, and did not have a sageâlike
aura but a vaguely evil one.

âCan you take a guess about my woes, sir?â questioned Mackenzie to test his
abilities.
âMadam, see there?â the old man pointed to a bird nest in a tree where two
birds were separating, one bird flying off by itself.
Mackenzie was shocked and curious about whether it was coincidental or
deliberate.
âYou were birds of a feather, but one of you had to leave first. Madam, the
issue troubling you now has to be connected with your most beloved!â
Lexi shook after hearing that. Thatâs amazing!
Mackenzie was skeptical about his mindâreading abilities, but it was still
surprising if he had staged this. For one, how had he been able to predict that
she would pull over here? She was going to see what he was about to say!
âYouâre right, sir. It is indeed related to my beloved.â She chose to be honest.
âMy best friend and her friend require our assistance in going somewhere to
save them, but we will be endangered if I go. Besides, Iâm pregnant, and he
