Love at the Wrong Table

âThe Verkadesâ company is our companyâs bitter rival. They couldnât bear
to see us completing our project, so he wanted to get rid of me! If I died,
they could snatch the project from us!â Mackenzie deduced confidently.
Emmanuel couldnât help realizing something. It seems that Mackenzie will
only use derogatory terms to address me. Judging by the look in her eyes,
I can tell that sheâs pissed off at Gautier. Yet, she didnât address him the
way she would address me. Does she really hate me that much?
âWhat are you waiting for? Get a taxi and letâs go home!â Mackenzie kicked
Emmanuel. Heâs so dumb! Was he waiting for me to get a taxi?
Instead of doing what she told him to, Emmanuel asked, âHow about the
logo for our project? I did all that at the bar to get the craftsman from
Cloud Construction to finish the job!â
Only then did Mackenzie learn about the truth. It seems that this
gynecologist wasnât there to cheat.

Chapter 74 Mackenzie Is Falling For That Man
Mackenzie had thought Emmanuel was fooling around with Xylie because
Xylie looked innocent and pretty. However, she changed her mind upon
hearing how sincere Emmanuel sounded.
âAre you seriously thinking about forcing that man back to work and
completing the job by tomorrow?â Mackenzie was amused.
Emmanuel nodded firmly in response.
Mackenzie wanted to laugh at him, but she held back her laughter.
Although heâs a bit dense, heâs a serious man.
âForget about it. Send them the original picture again and tell them to
complete the job as soon as possible!â
âUhâ¦â Emmanuel was confused. âHow about the ribbon-cutting
ceremony?â

âWell, Iâll deal with that.â Mackenzie was full of confidence because she had
dealt with countless issues and knew she could easily solve the
aforementioned problem.
Soon, Emmanuel hailed a taxi and accompanied Mackenzie back to
Yociam Residence. However, he remained in the car upon arriving at the
residential area.
âHey! Where are you going?â Mackenzie was annoyed. I never liked people
waking me up from my sleep. Itâs already past midnight. Where does this
man think heâs going?

âIâm going to look for Mr. Larson. Youâll be safe now that youâre home. I wonât
be coming home tonight. Sleep tight!â
With that, Emmanuel told the driver to drive away.
âWhat a fool!â Mackenzie was enraged. No one has ever dared to defy my
orders! Iâve already told him to set the matter aside, but he wonât listen!
Forget about it. Itâs not like he can settle the issue.
To her surprise, she was told the next day that Cloud Construction had
completed the job, and the logo was fixed.
Mackenzie was in a meeting when she received the news. She was
shocked, and she couldnât help smiling.
Although the smile on Mackenzieâs face vanished within a second, Beatrix
noticed it. No! Why does it seem like Mackenzie is falling for that man?
After the meeting, Mackenzie drove back to Yociam Residence. When she
opened the door, she found Emmanuel sleeping on the couch. Heâs
snoring! He worked through the night, didnât he?
Mackenzie furrowed her brows because she hated men who snored in
their sleep.
At the same time, she knew that she could touch him to stop him from
snoring or even wake him up.
Mackenzie approached him unhesitatingly and lifted her arm. However,
she lowered it once again.
In the end, she merely frowned and let Emmanuel sleep.
Evidently, Emmanuel was in a deep sleep, and he only woke up the next
morning. When he opened his eyes, he found that he was sleeping with a
blanket over his face.

He sat up at once and saw Mackenzie attending to her houseplants on the
balcony. I must admit that sheâs very talented and artistic. All of her plants
are pleasant to look at.
Apparently, Emmanuel was also feasting his eyes on Mackenzie. She was
dressed casually in white. At that moment, she looked like an angel, and
he was mesmerized.
