Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 196
Emmanuel would welcome his mother with open arms, but he knew
Mackenzieâs personality.
She wouldnât be okay with it because she wouldnât even be living with him if
her grandfather hadnât forced her to.
Therefore, he didnât say anything, as he didnât want to make things difficult for
Mackenzie.
âMy friend has a house in Meadowbrook Residence. Sheâs currently working
out of town and asked me to take care of it. If youâre willing, you can move
there with Roselynn. Itâs much bigger than this place too.â
Mackenzie came up with a solution immediately.
Of course, the story was a lie. She had multiple properties, and the place she
offered them was one of many.
Seeing Alessandra still hesitating, Mackenzie said, âItâs also much closer to
Yociam Residence, and it would be easier for Emmanuel and me to visit you!
Alessandraâs eyes lit up. âReally? Then, will Manny and you visit me every
week if I move there?â
Roselynn couldnât help but roll her eyes. Mom is indeed Hermannâs daughter
with their patriarchal mindset. Wait⦠Since Mom is doting on her
daughterâinâlaw, it doesnât count as favoring males over females, right?
âSure,â Mackenzie promised readily.
Alessandra was delighted at the thought of being able to see her son and
daughterâinâlaw every week. She wouldnât even mind living in a doghouse as
long as they visited her.
âI know someone who can arrange the installation of surveillance cameras
by today!â
Not only was Mackenzie good at planning, but her execution skills were also
topânotch.
She immediately let Emmanuel drive them to Meadowbrook Residence so
Alessandra and Roselynn could settle in.
Then, when they came back home to pack their belongings, they realized
that the surveillance cameras were already set up.
Mackenzie had effortlessly resolved the Lowe familyâs troubles.
Roselynn couldnât help but whisper in her brotherâs ear, âYour wife is
amazing!â
Emmanuel chuckled and responded, âOf course, her abilities are
unquestionable! Sheâs an executive of a large company after all.â
Roselynn agreed wholeheartedly and felt that her sisterâinâlawâs abilities
surpassed those of her boyfriend, who was a general manager.
In the afternoon, Mackenzie parted ways with the Lowe family and went to a
highâend restaurant to meet Beatrix.
This time, Beatrix was the one who invited her.
As they had lunch, Beatrix piled Mackenzieâs plate high with food and gave
her massages.
âSay it. What do you want?â
She grew up with Beatrix, so she knew what was going through the latterâs
mind.
âHehe! You really are an intelligent goddess and the most beautiful CEO of
Yeringham! You can practically read minds!â
âCut it out! You are being too obvious. Do you think Iâm as dumb as
Emmanuel?â
Upon hearing Mackenzie bring up Manuel, Beatrix queried cautiously,
âMackenzie, can I borrow something from you for one day?â
âWhat is it?â
Mackenzie became wary.
Beatrix had never been so polite when borrowing things from her before.
Chizans
Given that she had invited Mackenzie to lunch, it was most likely not an
ordinary item she wished to borrow.
Sure enough, Beatrix eyed her cautiously and replied, âManuel!â
âWhat?â
Mackenzie put down her cutlery.
Beatrix wants to borrow my husband? If this got out, novelists could create a
lengthy family drama about it!
Mackenzie furrowed her brows and questioned, âWhat do you want to borrow
him for?â
