Chapter 72


    Mackenzie wasn’t interested to listen to his exnation. She delivered a


    tight p across his face, then turned to leave.


    Beatrix was stunned. Indeed, those who aren’t involved will always be


    more clear-minded. Mackenzie is pissed off at him and has lost her

    “Hear me out, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel grabbed Mackenzie’s wrist.


    Despite getting pped across the face, he was determined to clear


    things up.


    Xylie panicked and sat on the bed silently. This girl is so beautiful. What’s


    her rtionship with Emmanuel? They look like a couple, but why did he


    address her as Ms. Quillen?


    “Hmph! You have thirty seconds to exin yourself. Let’s see what excuses


    you cane up with.” Mackenzie couldn’t shake him off. This man is so


    strong and brazen! Not a single man has dared to grab my hand in the


    twenty-seven years of my life.

    “That’s right! Hurry up and make up a story-I mean, exin yourself. Who


    knows? If it sounds convincing, we might believe you!” Beatrix was eager


    to stir the pot. Although she said she might believe him, she didn’t mean it.


    “I came to the bar because I was figuring out ways to fix the logo for the


    “Wow, that’s a refreshing way to brag.” Mackenzie didn’t believe him.


    She turned around and left.


    Beatrix stuck out her tongue at Emmanuel and followed suit. Emmanuel is

    done for!


    “Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel chased after them. At that moment, he couldn’t


    be bothered about the project or Xylie. I’m doing all this to bring Mackenzie


    home! Yet, she’s dumping me. Mom will be so disappointed! Also, I’ll


    embarrass myself in front of Uncle Chester and Uncle Benny tomorrow!


    Thepany’s project doesn’t concern me anymore.


    In order to lose Emmanuel, Mackenzie told her driver to speed up and take


    shortcuts on the road. I have to get home as quickly as possible and lock


    the door to prevent that man from evering in!

    “Please driver faster and catch up with the woman’s car in front!”


    Emmanuel urged his taxi driver.


    However, the driver turned around slightly and advised, “You can’t force


    someone to love you back, my friend. Why are you stalking the woman? If


    things go south, you might end up in jail!”


    “Stalk?” Emmanuel was livid. “That’s my wife! Cut your nonsense! I’ll give


    you two hundred if you can catch up.”


    “Your wife? Sit tight, my friend!” The driver floored the elerator when he


    heard the money offered.


    However, there was no way a taxi could catch up with Mackenzie’s luxury


    car.


    The distance between the two cars grew wider, and her car was soon out


    of sight.


    Right then, an MPV suddenly appeared from a dark alley, forcing


    Mackenzie’s car to stop.


    The screeching sound disrupted the peaceful night.


    “Don’t you know how to drive?” Mackenzie’s driver wanted to give the


    MPV’s driver an earful, but all of a sudden, a few burly men were seen


    exiting the Mercedes-Benz.


    Mackenzie’s driver was terrified when he saw that the men were armed


    and up to no good. He quietly went back into the car.


    “Mackenzie, what’s happening? It seems that these men have been


    targeting us. Are they trying to rob us?” Beatrix asked.


    “Don’t worry. I’m here.” Mackenzie then ordered the driver, “I’ll get out of the


    car in a while. Drive away and find a safe spot to call the police!”


    “No way, Mackenzie! What about you?” Beatrix wanted to convince


    Mackenzie otherwise, but there was already amotion outside.


    “Get out! Get out!” the leader of the men, who was dressed in ck,


    shouted and broke the car window with a metal rod.

    Shards of ss flew everywhere, injuring the people in the car.
