Chapter 912 He Is Absolutely Trustworthy
By the end of dinner, Terence had had quite a bit to drink and, in a tipsy state, invited Emmanuel to stay the night at the Quillen residence.
“Emmanuel, we’ve had such a great time today. You and Mackenzie don’t need to go back to your little home tonight, right? We have plenty of empty rooms here!”
Naturally, Sophie and Hannah were the most uncomfortable about the invitation. Of course, the other Quillen women shared their sentiments. They held a similar view: Emmanuel was acceptable as Mackenzie’s personal bodyguard, but as her husband, he couldn’t provide any support to her in the business world.
In other words, he wasn’t worthy!
Felicity, on the other hand, had somewhat changed her attitude. She had seen through the Quillen family’s distrust of outsiders. If Emmanuel stayed at the Quillen residence, she would no longer be the only outsider there, and she could build a relationship with him to strengthen her ties with Mackenzie.
“Is it inconvenient, perhaps?” Emmanuel didn’t want to directly refuse Terence’s kindness, so he left the decision to Mackenzie. “Besides, Mackenzie has to return to the company tomorrow. It might be more convenient to stay in Yociam-”
Before he could finish his sentence, Mackenzie calmly said, “It’s alright. We can stay over tonight.”
“Um…” Emmanuel was a bit stunned.
“Haha, in that case, you can spend the night in Mackenzie…” Terence interjected playfully, and when Emmanuel was slightly taken aback, the cunning old man finished his sentence, saying, “Mackenzie’s room!”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Childish!
Emmanuel was left feeling slightly awkward. “Are you sure it’s okay?”
Despite having lived under the same roof as Mackenzie for several months, they had never shared a room. With so many rooms in the Quillen residence and so many people around, how could he possibly sleep in the same room as Mackenzie?! Mackenzie certainly wouldn’t agree to it!
Unexpectedly, the young woman monotoned, “There’s nothing wrong with it. If you want to, go ahead.”
“But…” Emmanuel shivered suddenly. What has come over her today?
Beatrix was equally surprised and quickly covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound. Is Mackenzie evolving again? She is actually allowing a man into her room and sharing a bed with her!
“Mackenzie, you can’t do this!” Hannah, who was about to leave the Quillen residence, quickly stepped forward to dissuade her
Samantha also stood by her side this time.
After the clarification between Emmanuel and Terence the last time, they were convinced that Mackenzie hadn’t given herself to this man yet. After experiencing the recent turmoil in the business world, they remained committed to finding Mackenzie a man of the same social status. They believed that Emmanuel would eventually have to find his own way out.
Mackenzie, however, remained expressionless as she said, “There’s nothing wrong with it. He is my legal husband.”
With that, she walked toward her room.
The remaining people were left a bit stunned. They all noticed that Mackenzie was acting unusually that day. What happened to her?
“Haha, go sleep with Mackenzie tonight, Emmanuel!” Terence, who was the most delighted, gave Emmanuel a push and staggered his way back to his own room.
Alfred quickly came over to support him.
The other Quillen women were filled with words they couldn’t express, but they couldn’t stop this from happening. All they could do was stare in disbelief.
“Old Mr. Quillen, how do you view Emmanuel?” Alfred, having helped Terence to his room, couldn’t help but ask.
He rarely asked Terence for his opinions on matters, but considering the significant events that had just transpired, he had observed Emmanuel closely and felt the need to discuss this young man with someone.
“Haha, I absolutely have a favorable opinion of him; otherwise, I wouldn’t insist on giving him my granddaughter! His character is absolutely trustworthy!” Terence laughed heartily.
