Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 329
âMackenzie has a really strange temper, Mom. I just donât understand her!â
Cornered by Alessandraâs pressure, Emmanuel had no choice but to turn
around and speak.
âWâWhat?â She was also in a state of exasperation, not knowing whether to
cry or laugh. Immediately, she circled back to him, assuming a parental
posture. âManny, womenâs thoughts are more delicate and complex than
menâs. Itâs normal for women to throw some tantrums. Youâre a grown man.
Canât you accommodate her a bit?â
âMom, I-â He wanted to say that he had been accommodating her all along.
However, his personality prevented him from saying anything. He was so
frustrated that he even took out a cigarette and wanted to smoke it.
Yet, Alessandra snatched the cigarette from him and reprimanded, âYou
donât usually smoke, so why are you smoking now? Iâm telling you now. If you
donât bring Mackenzie back, Iâll⦠Iâll be angry! Really angry!â Growing
increasingly desperate, her tone of speech indicated her state of mind. She
had always showered her son with affection, never before uttering such
words.
Naturally, Emmanuel understood his motherâs feelings, but he was more
worried about her health. So, he quickly supported her shoulder and
comforted her, âCalm down, Mom. I understand everything youâre saying.â In
his mind, however, he thought, Even if I understand, Mackenzie probably wonât
see me again. I donât have the chance to accommodate her anymore, even
if I want to.
âThis wonât do! I canât just sit here and do nothing. Iâll talk to Old Mr. Quillen and
see if he has any good solutions.â Alessandra knew that her sonâs efforts were
futile, so it was better to go and talk to Terence.
When Emmanuel saw that she had a plan, he became less worried.
Regardless of what she said to Terence, after she finished the call, he told her
that he would bring Tommy to stay with them for a few days, and she
agreed. Since he didnât ask, she didnât tell him what she had talked about with
Terence either.
On the other hand, in the Lenoir Residence, Claudette paced back and forth
in her room, holding her phone. She wanted to contact Emmanuel, but she
couldnât muster the courage, as she was afraid of being accused of breaking
up someone elseâs marriage and being a shameless mistress. But why canât I
contact him? I heard that he has already divorced Mackenzie.
âGosh, this is killing me!â She sighed and put her phone down for now.
In the next moment, the door of the room was pushed open by a seductive
woman.
Startled, Claudette stared and said, âAunt Laura, can you have some
manners? Remember to knock when entering a room. And why are you
dressed like this? I thought it was some prostitute who entered the wrong
room.â
Both mother and daughter were goddessâlike figures outside, and everyone
thought they were elegant. However, if men from outside were to see how
the two were behaving at home, their eyeballs would probably pop out in
-shock.
LauraâGeneral Lenoirâs wifeâalways wore sleepwear that was more
revealing than underwear, parading around the house. What Claudette said
was the truth. Even the women working at a massage parlor wouldnât dress
as provocatively as Laura.
âHehe.â Instead of being angry, Laura was proud of it.
Then, she walked into the room and directly pointed out what was on
Claudetteâs mind. âSo, still hesitating whether to pursue your Dr. Lowe? Do you
expect not to be criticized for being a mistress?â
Instantly, Claudette became agitated and said, âHey, can you use better
words?â In her mind, she added, Although thatâs the truth.
âDidnât I tell you? Becoming a legal wife from a mistress is a skill, and itâs
something to be proud of. Now is your best opportunity. What are you
hesitating about?â Laura came to encourage her. If she hesitates at this
critical moment, it will erase all her previous efforts.
Seeing Claudette remain silent, she continued, âEmmanuel is not an ordinary
person. If you can have him, you will feel that you have great taste in men in
the future.â
