Chapter 316


    While the members of the rescue team were anxiously awaiting Mackenzie’s


    return, they unexpectedly found Emmanuel returning. He was supporting


    udette as they arrived at the rescue area.


    “Mr. Lowe, Ms. Lenoir, did you not encounter Ms. Quillen?” the rescue team


    captain hurriedly approached and asked, feeling incredibly restless.


    He would bear the me if something happened to Mackenzie. How was he


    to exin it to the Quillen family?


    Emmanuel shook his head and anxiously asked in return, “Has Mackenzie not


    Livid, the captain stomped his foot. “Would I ask you if she had returned?”


    “We got separated from her,” udette quickly replied. “There were people in


    the valley trying to kill us. Emmanuel saved me but couldn’t bring Ms. Quillen


    back.”


    In turn, the members of the rescue team looked at each other in shock.


    Mackenzie had only descended into the valley to save Emmanuel, but


    Emmanuel, in his attempt to save another woman, hadn’t brought her back?


    Has Ms. Quillen’s love failed her? What sphemy! This is Makenzie Quillen,


    the number one icy goddess of Yeringham, for heaven’s sake!


    Just then, Mackenzie returned to the rescue site with Hubert behind her.


    “Mackenzie! Thank goodness you’re okay!” Emmanuel hurriedly rushed over,


    visibly relieved.


    However, Mackenzie nced at him, then at udette trailing behind him.


    Her cold gaze stabbed him like a sword through the heart.


    Emmanuel shivered.

    As expected, Mackenzie didn’t acknowledge him and simply walked away


    while instructing the captain, “Let’s go back. We’re leaving as many people as


    we came!”


    “We…” It quickly dawned on the captain that Mackenzie didn’t want to take


    Emmanuel and udette back with them.


    What’s the meaning of this? You were the one who insisted that we descend


    to the valley in arge group for the rescue, but now you don’t want us to


    bring them back up when they’ve been found?


    “Mackenzie, wait, let me exin!” Emmanuel knew Mackenzie had


    misunderstood him and tried to exin in front of everyone. Unfortunately,


    Mackenzie didn’t want to listen to him.


    Seeing this, Hubert was over the moon. He even exchanged suggestive


    nces with udette, celebrating the sess of their mission.


    Looks like Mackenzie’s ditching Emmanuel for good!


    udette, however, pursed her lips and didn’t respond to him. In fact, she felt


    somewhat ufortable.


    Mackenzie happened to catch Hubert and udette exchanging nces


    and shot an icy look at the young woman.


    She hadn’t expected to find that udette was actually a scheming woman.


    “Feel free to keep my trash, Ms. Lenoir! Good riddance!” said Mackenzie before


    turning to leave.

    “Don’t go!” Emmanuel grabbed her hand and eximed anxiously. “Please let


    me exin, Ms. Quillen!”


    Mackenzie tried to struggle but found herself unable to break free.


    How dare you behave like this toward me in front of everyone, you jack*ss!


    “Believe it or not, the person I actually wanted to save was you! Go ahead


    and be mad, but please don’t humiliate anyone!” Emmanuel wasn’t a


    pushover, either.


    He nearly died trying to save Mackenzie, but she ended up humiliating him by


    calling him a piece of trash because of Quintus‘ interference. How could


    anyone ept that?


    However, Mackenzie didn’t buy his story this time and snorted disdainfully. “I


    can’t read minds, so I only ever judge people through their actions!”


    Her words pierced through Emmanuel’s heart.


    “Let go!” Mackenzie kneed Emmanuel’s abdomen mercilessly, and the


    excruciating pain caused him to finally release her.
