Chapter 197

“Oh, it’s not me who wants to borrow him. It’s my best friend!” Beatrix hurriedly

explained, “Don’t get the wrong idea, Mackenzie. I’m not trying to seduce

Manuel. Even though he’s tall, muscular, and handsome, I’m not the type to

swoon over men!”

“You’re not?”

Mackenzie suddenly chuckled. “Is that even possible? Whose room is filled

with posters of handsome men? Who is the person who constantly gushes

about certain male celebrities being domineering, manly, and suitable to be

her husband?”

Pfft!

She exposed Beatrix so hard that the latter gave her a pleading look. “That’s

enough, Mackenzie. I admit that I swoon over men, but I will never harbor

inappropriate thoughts toward Manuel. I swear!”

With that, Beatrix lifted her hand as if taking an oath.

Only after hearing that did Mackenzie ask, “Which best friend of yours wants

to borrow that idiot?”

She knew that her cousin had a lot of friends, while she had practically none.

“It’s Elizabeth! And it’s not just her. Many of my friends are eager to meet the

superhero who took on Wolf Warrior Society alone as well!”

Beatrix’s eyes widened and sparkled as she spoke.

I must say, Manuel was so cool that night!

“I can’t believe that idiot can gain female fans from a fight!”

Mackenzie was even more determined to forbid him from going out at night

to fight in the future. What will others think of him?

“Can you allow it, Mackenzie? I promised them to take him to a laser tag

game and let him lead us! If you don’t agree, it’ll make me look bad!”

Beatrix clasped her hands together and pleaded.

Mackenzie rolled her eyes in exasperation. “Just ask him directly. It’s not as if

you’re taking me there!”

“Gosh! As your cousin, do you think I’m unaware of your standing in your

family? What he says doesn’t count!”

Beatrix’s words were like music to Mackenzie’s ears.

I’m the boss not just at work, but also at home!

“I promise I won’t let Elizabeth and the other girls get their hands on Manuel,

Mackenzie! I’ll bring him home untainted!”

Beatrix quickly vowed, knowing just what her cousin was thinking.

“Go and ask him yourself. You’re making it seem as if I’m restricting his

freedom!”

“Thanks, Mackenzie!”

With her cousin’s words, Beatrix knew that the matter was settled.

Sure enough, Beatrix invited Emmanuel to the laser tag game next Saturday

using her status in the Quillen family, to which the latter replied that he had

to inform his wife.

Naturally, Mackenzie would not stop him since she had already agreed to it.

Hence, the matter was set in stone.

“Good news, Claudette!”

Elizabeth immediately went to Claudette excitedly after confirming that

Emmanuel would participate in their activity.

“Dr. Lowe, my superhero, will be joining us for the laser tag game next

Saturday! Do you want to join us, Claudette? This is a good opportunity!”

Claudette was secretly surprised. I wonder what Elizabeth meant by good

opportunity. Could it be that she knows I like Dr. Lowe?

“You don’t have to hide it anymore, Claudette. Beatrix told me everything. Dr.

Lowe is tall and handsome, and he provides a sense of security: I also like him

very much!”

Chapter 197 Biggest Love Rival

Claudette was even more shocked after hearing her sister’s words.

“Elizabeth, what did Beatrix tell you exactly? Also, doesn’t Dr. Lowe have a

girlfriend?”

Claudette felt increasingly uneasy.

Firstly, she was hoping that Emmanuel did not have a girlfriend.

Secondly, she could not believe that her younger sister had become her love

rival.

Elizabeth knew that her sister did not know as much as she did. It’s because

Beatrix and I are best friends!

“Don’t worry about whether Dr. Lowe has a girlfriend now, Claudette. He’ll be

single in half a year anyway. If you don’t make a move now, I’ll help you get

him!”

Claudette was rendered speechless.

Never have I ever imagined that my biggest rival in love would be my sister!
