Chapter 469
I really want to date a man like Manuel!
âMhm.â Mackenzie nodded and got into Emmanuelâs car.
As Beatrix sat in the Bentley and went home, she felt an increasingly strong
desire for love.
After the couple returned home, Emmanuel went straight to the kitchen to
cook while Mackenzie obediently went for a hot shower to freshen up.
Emmanuel prepared some simple food. It was only after he placed them on
the dining table that he realized that he had received numerous messages.
Upon opening them, he discovered they were all from Sarah.
âEmmanuel, did you contact the expert I recommended? I have a few indoor
fountain design proposals here. Iâll send them to you for reference!â

âHello?â
âEmmanuel, are you not satisfied? Why havenât you replied yet? Are you too
busy enjoying time with my sister and ignoring me? Heheâ¦â
âEmmanuel, Iâm going to bed if youâre not going to reply to me!â
After reading the pile of messages, Emmanuel quickly responded, explaining
that he had just returned home with Mackenzie and was cooking.
He had always found this sisterâinâlaw of his to be an easygoing person who
lacked the airs of a wealthy heiress. She even reminded him of Claudette.
Wait. They might be the same type of person!
After replying to Sarahâs messages, Emmanuel casually put down his phone
and prepared to get plates and cutlery to serve Mackenzieâs meal. However,
-he didnât expect to receive a reply from the young lady who hadnât fallen
asleep.
âYeah, Mackenzie works really hard. Remember to take good care of her,
Emmanuel!
âDue to the competition between the Verkade and the Lenoir families in the
storage and logistics industry and the energy sector, we are somewhat
divided in our focus on capturing the Quillen familyâs market. Not only that,
the warehouse was bombed, and we need funds for various investments.
Mackenzie is definitely stressed about financial issues.â
Sarah provided more details than Beatrix, allowing Emmanuel to understand
Mackenzieâs concerns.
Because of this, Emmanuel became more interested in chatting with her.
He felt uncomfortable directly asking Mackenzie about workârelated matters
since he was just an unemployed gynecologist. He didnât want her to get
impatient when answering his many questions.
However, he didnât have that hidden psychological burden by getting
information through Sarah.
Unexpectedly, after chatting with Sarah for a while, Emmanuel didnât realize
that Mackenzie was already standing behind him in a bathrobe.
âEmmanuel, what are you doing?â
âAh! Sorry, I havenât served your meal yet!â
Upon seeing his wife, Emmanuel hurriedly ran into the kitchen. When he
returned, he saw Mackenzie holding his phone, her beautiful face devoid of
émotion.
âEmmanuel, didnât I ask you not to get too close to Sarah?â
âYouâre being sensitive, Mackenzie. Iâm just having a casual conversation with
her.â
Emmanuel thought his wife was jealous of her younger sister, but then he
decided that probably wasnât the case after he reconsidered it. After all, his
wife shouldnât be bothered by him simply maintaining a normal relationship
with his sisterâinâlaw.
âI said no!â Mackenzie stubbornly proceeded to block Sarah.
Emmanuel wasnât happy about that, and he thought his wife was being
unreasonable. How am I going to explain it to Sarah later?
But despite being upset, Emmanuel knew that Mackenzie was exhausted,
and he didnât want to argue with her over these trivial matters. In the end, he
served her food and reminded her, âDonât go to bed until an hour after dinner.
It wonât even be 11.00PM then.â
However, Mackenzie didnât eat; her beautiful eyes were fixed on him the
whole time.
