Chapter 1138 Delusional


    Beatrix couldn’t help but scoff in contempt when she saw Lara behaving this way. “What is your


    position and role in Terence Group? Why should Mackenzie listen to you? Mackenzie was simply being


    polite. It’s clear that her underlying message is that you shouldn’t overestimate yourself!”


    Beatrix had encountered people like Lara far too many times! Individuals like her were asmon as


    the fishes in the sea, especially on those tforms where they could get away with saying anything


    they wanted.


    These individuals were actually immature and ignorant. Yet, they enjoyed pointing out ws and


    criticizing experts on how things should be done. They would constantly act as if they were smarter


    than Einstein himself. They even had the audacity to prance around, acting as though they were rare


    geniuses who had been studying under Socrates and Aristotle since the age of three. They may even


    start quoting some random philosopher like to while acting all superior. Some delusionalizens


    would start bringing up strategies that didn’t fit the bill and write puff pieces just to get some clicks.


    In reality, they were nothing but clowns!


    Lara was already embarrassed. However, she became infuriated after Beatrix’s tongueshing as she


    hissed, “Beatrix, you’re just trying to create conflict between Mackenzie and me. Well, I’ll show you just


    who’s in charge. Since I’ve returned, you’ll be yesterday’s news soon enough! I’ll surpass you in no


    time, you loser! Hmph!”


    She knew of Mackenzie’s influence within the Quillen family. Plus, she had always idolized Mackenzie


    since she was a child. So, she didn’t dare to criticize her idol. Instead, she could only vent her anger on


    Beatrix!


    “Hmph! Big words for someone with zero achievements! Do you think I’d be afraid of you?”


    Beatrix, who had always had a fiery temper, was not intimidated by Lara’s arguments at all. Rather, she


    didn’t hesitate to confront her directly, saying imperiously, “What’s the use of learning multiple foreign


    languages? The business world values strength and experience! It doesn’t care for people who can’t


    deliver results! Do you think speaking with an ent would impress anyone? If that’s the case, I can


    start speaking in code! What do you think of that then?!”


    All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    ‘Alright, you two. That’s enough!”


    Samantha quickly intervened before things could escte further.


    The Quillen girls had constantly been at odds with each other since they were young. s, they didn’t


    expect that Beatrix and Lara, who were already 20, would start trash-talking each other the moment


    they bumped into each other. They truly hadn’t matured even the slightest!


    “Fine. I won’t waste my breath on someone so childish. I’ve returned with a greater purpose! I’m here to


    help the Quillen family regain its former glory!”


    Lara was filled with somewhat unfounded confidence.


    She didn’t care how the members of the family saw her. There was no denying the fact that she had


    received an education abroad. Hence, there was no way she wasn’t going to use this opportunity to


    show off.


    Still, she immediately changed the subject the moment she caught sight of Emmanuel!


    “Mackenzie, you can ignore my advice regarding other issues. However, there is one thing you should


    listen to me about!”


    Lara pointed at Emmanuel and said, “This scumbag is not worthy of you at all. To make matters worse,


    news has gotten out that he’s been visiting nightclubs and fooling around with women! You have to


    divorce him right now. This marriage has been aplete failure from the start! Why continue being


    with a man who has brought nothing but shame to our family?!”


    As soon as Lara spoke, the other Quillen family members who were watching the show started


    showing interest in how things were unfolding.


    Hannah had been silent all evening because she had sold her shares and was determined to have


    nothing to do with the Quillen family. She genuinely didn’t care if the family seeded or failed.


    Nheless, her aloof demeanor was reced with a glimmer of intrigue.


    Samantha and her sisters knew that Lara had a mboyant personality that they didn’t particrly like.


    In fact, they couldn’t deny that they viewed her as a jester when they were feeling particrly bored.


    Regardless, they were more than willing to use Lara as their spokesperson tonight!


    Once Lara brought up this particr topic, Sophie immediately spoke coldly, “Impressive! Cheating on


    your spouse so soon?”


    Moira, who rarely chimed in, couldn’t help but say to Terence, “Dad, is this the man you chose for


    Mackenzie? Our family’s reputation is ruined!”


    Felicity was also disappointed in Emmanuel!


    She had hoped to use him and Mackenzie to control the Quillen family. Unfortunately, this man had


    done something that not only embarrassed himself but also affected Mackenzie’s position in the Quillen


    family!


    Terence remained silent.


    Firstly, he didn’t believe Emmanuel was that kind of person.


    Secondly, he was way past his prime. The rtionship between Mackenzie and Emmanuel was


    something they needed to resolve themselves.


    Besides, he had done what he needed to do and said what he needed to say to both Emmanuel and


    Mackenzie. What they did next was up to them!


    “Don’t misunderstand Emmanuel. That was a business trip. He only did it because I told him to go!”


    Mackenzie was aware that she, as his wife, was the only one who could exin matters on his behalf.


    It wouldn’t work as well if it came out of Emmanuel’s mouth.


    Indeed, her words were more powerful than a thousand exnations from Emmanuel.


    What else could others say when the wife has made it clear that she had encouraged her husband to


    have an affair?


    The Quillen family was speechless!


    “That’s enough, Mackenzie. You don’t need to protect this scumbag anymore. Matters of the heart are


    complicated. We, as your family, understand what you’re going through!” Lara, who believed she had


    uncovered the truth, arrogantly dered, “As the heir of the Quillen family, your marriage is not just


    about yourself! Well, this is now a family matter. All of us have a say in your marriage. So, let’s have a


    vote! Those in favor of Mackenzie divorcing Emmanuel, please raise your hands!”
