Chapter 189


    Emmanuel couldn’t help but feel a little angry when he heard that. “How


    could you say that, Ms. Quillen? I just didn’t want these tickets to go to waste.


    That’s all! Besides, you know how it is. You’re the only femalepanion I


    could find to go with me. I don’t want to go there with some other guy, you


    know?”


    Pfft! Who would’ve thought this gynecologist is actually straight?


    Mackenzie let out a snicker when she heard that, but she was quick to regain


    herposure and asked coldly, “What about udette, then?”


    “Oh, you’re right!”


    Oblivious to the fact that Mackenzie had said that on purpose, Emmanuel


    realized he could give the ticket to udette instead.


    Mackenzie got angry when she saw him getting ready to leave.


    “Hold it right there!”


    “What is it, Ms. Quillen?”


    Emmanuel turned around, only to see that Mackenzie’s cheeks were puffed


    with anger as she made her way toward him.


    Before he even realized what was going on, she reached out and snatched


    the two tickets out of his hands.


    Wait a minute… Aren’t these the two tickets that Quintus had when he tried to


    invite me?


    “I know you don’t want to go to the concert, but you can’t stop me from going


    too! I actually like ssical music!” Emmanuel protested after recovering


    from his state of shock.


    “Who says I’m not going?” Mackenzie shot him an icy–cold re before


    continuing, “I happen to be freetely, soe pick me up at my office


    building tomorrow night.”


    She then turned around and went back inside her room after that, leaving


    Emmanuel frozen in shock outside.


    Huh? Did Mackenzie just agree to go on a date with me? Well, it’s just a


    concert, so why do I feel like my heart is pounding faster than usual? Oh, no…


    This simply won’t do!


    “We had an agreement! An agreement!” Emmanuel mumbled to himself


    while trying to calm himself down.


    I can’t fall in love with Mackenzie, or it will hurt me even more when she files


    for a divorce.


    Emmanuel headed over to Terence Group to pick Mackenzie up the next day.


    Mackenzie was wearing a violet silk dress with a white shawl draped over her


    shoulders. That outfitplemented her beautiful face really well and made


    her look all the more graceful and elegant.


    Emmanuel couldn’t help but pause in disbelief when he saw her. Whoa… Am I


    really going to a concert with such a gorgeous woman? I’m not dreaming,


    am I?


    “What’s the matter? Why are you looking at me like that?” Mackenzie asked


    with a slightly smug grin on her face as she got into the passenger seat.


    “You look amazing, Ms. Quillen!” Emmanuel eximed.


    Mackenzie liked how he would behave like an airhead at times. “You’ve told


    me that countless times now!”


    “I know I have, but you always look prettier than before, Ms. Quillen. That’s why


    I always say that.” Emmanuel replied with a straight face.


    Pfft!


    Mackenzie couldn’t help but let out a snicker when she heard that.


    Okay, I think I finally understand why I like hispliments now! His


    progression. I’m pretty sure every woman would love to hear someone say


    they look prettier than they did before. None of those men I’ve met in the past

    are capable of doing this.


    “What are youughing at, Ms. Quillen?”


    “I’mughing at you for looking so crappy!”


    “Huh? I look cr*ppy?”


    I know I’m not handsome or anything, but I don’t look that bad, do I?


    “Yeah, that’s right! I’ve never seen someone go to a concert in work clothes!”


    “I’m sorry, but I didn’t have any fancy clothes-”
