“Haha, well said!” Terence quickly applauded and gave Emmanuel a thumbs
up in his mind.
Looks like Mackenzie digs Emmanuel’s attitude. Either way, I’ve already told
Emmanuel everything I wanted to say earlier. If he doesn’t make a move and
get Mackenzie pregnant sooner, I’ll give him another piece of my mind!
“I don’t know, and I don’t care whether you got rich by relying on Mackenzie,
but either way, I have no intention of managing the clothing store anymore.
It’s not worth much now anyway, so consider it a gift from your
mother-in-law,” Felicity added generously.
Firstly, she enjoyed seeing the Quillen women deflated before her. Secondly,
since she reconciled with Mackenzie, she decided to take advantage of this
situation and give her son-in-law the asset, believing it would further
improve her relationship with Mackenzie.
“Thank you, Mother, but since I said I would acquire it, I’ll pay you the money,”
Emmanuel insisted.
Felicity quirked her lips in response, obviously not liking his persistence.
“I’ll help you two handle this matter,” said Mackenzie, done going back and
forth about such trivial matters. Then, she turned to Samantha, who cared for
her the most, and tried to soothe her. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Aunt Samantha, Felicity is still a member of the Quillen family. We don’t need
to fight amongst ourselves and become a laughingstock. She promised to be
on the same page as us, no longer sending the Quillen family’s assets away.
Let’s give her a chance, okay?”
Samantha didn’t know what to say for a moment. The enmity between her
and Felicity couldn’t be resolved with just a few words. However, because
Mackenzie interceded, she would give in. Thus, she remained silent.
Meanwhile, Hannah and Sophie turned their faces away, their attitudes
similar to Samantha’s. They might not believe Felicity, but they didn’t want to
confront Mackenzie head-on, especially with Terence present.
“It’s all decided, then!” Terence sealed the deal and turned to Felicity. “Felicity,
I won’t hold onto past grievances. I hope you can live well here with us.”
Felicity nodded slightly without a word.
“Sophie, let’s go!” Hannah turned around and left, taking Sophie with her.
Samantha, on the other hand, sighed and gently patted Mackenzie’s hand.
“Just be careful in everything you do, and be careful not to be deceived!”
Mackenzie knew what she meant and could only smile faintly. “I know.”
This feeling was truly unpleasant. One was her mother, and the other was her
husband, yet they couldn’t gain her other family members’ trust. How was
she supposed to mediate in between?!
“The way I see it, Mackenzie is becoming increasingly confused!”
“Terence Group’s management has become increasingly poor since she got
married.”
“Worst of all, she doesn’t listen to our advice. If this continues, our family will
eventually be in big trouble!”
“That’s right. Despicable rouges are in charge!”
Hannah and Sophie deliberately spoke aloud the things they dared not say in
front of Terence and Mackenzie as they left. Either way, their purpose was to
be heard.
As a result, Mackenzie’s mood worsened.
Emmanuel was upset as well. If the situation at Terence Group truly
deteriorated, he feared his marriage with Mackenzie wouldn’t hold up either.
Therefore, he had to help stabilize the situation for his wife…
The next day.
Rhea had officially started working at Beacon Hospital. Unfortunately for her,
though, her idol was no longer practicing there.
“Hey, Rhea, I heard a big shot is coming to our hospital today for a charity
event! Shall we go take a look?” A fellow nurse suddenly walked up to Rhea,
linking arms with her.
