Chapter 503
At the very next moment, Mackenzie, Sarah, and Alfred walked in as well.
They were all sporting varying expressions!
Mackenzie red at Felicity before taking Emmanuel’s arm and saying,
“Everything’s ready. A lot of the rtives are waiting outside. Let’s go. I’ll
introduce you to them.”
Felicity’s eyes were fixed on Emmanuel.
Emmanuel didn’t feel like going, so he didn’t budge when Mackenzie tried to
pull him out.
“What are you doing, Emmanuel?”
Mackenzie was getting angry.
Everyone present knew what her personality was like, especially Alfred.
He had watched her grow up and it was his first time seeing her be this
intimate with a man, and yet, Emmanuel wasn’t listening to her.

“I feel a little unwell, Mackenzie. Let’s skip this dinner. I’m sorry!” Emmanuel
apologized to Mackenzie.
He knew that it would be even harder for him to leave the Quillen family if he
went ahead with this dinner and received the approval of the other members
of the family.
The Lenoir family was bound to cooperate with the Verkade family, and the
two wouldn’t stop until they took down the Quillen family!
Although he didn’t know what things were like for the Quillen family right now,
he saw how exhausted Mackenzie had beentely. She was even willing to
have a meal with Tobias over a measly 15 million. That alone was enough for
him to hazard a guess as to how bad things were for the Quillen family right
now.
He didn’t want to be a burden to his wife. He didn’t want to be the reason for
the Quillen family’s downfall either!
Even though he could offer up the 700 million that he had and think of a way
to help the Quillen family defeat the Lenoir family, Adolph was udette’s
father and udette risked her life to save him and Mackenzie. They couldn’t
possibly repay their debt of gratitude by taking down the Lenoir family!
Therefore, the only solution was to find a way to ovee this conflict!
“Out with it. Just what do you mean by that?”
Mackenzie swung his hand off in fury and red at him. No one had ever
seen her look this angry and aggrieved.
“Yeah, Manny! What’s on your mind right now?”
Terence was anxious as well. Mackenzie and Emmanuel had finally reunited
after everything, so why were they getting into another fight now? Can’t an
old man like me have some peace and quiet?
“Is Felicity forcing you to leave? If she is, tell me! I’ll stand up for you!” Terence
pointed at Felicity in fury.
Mackenzie was ring at Emmanuel too. She didn’t think he would be scared
of a woman when he was unafraid of ruthless men like Samuel and Adolph.
Emmanuel nced at Felicity, who was clenching her fists. Her body was
trembling. It looked as if she had something to say, though she was too
afraid to speak up.
Atst, he sighed and said, “Grandpa, Mackenzie, now’s not the time for me to
have dinner with the family. udette’s situation is still weighing heavily on
1. me. Why don’t Ie over again once I save her and resolve the grudge that
the Lenoir family holds against me?”
“Well…” Terence couldn’t think of anything to say.
“Not happening!” Mackenzie fired backmandingly. “You’re going to have
dinner with the family today whether you like it or not!”
If Emmanuel left in this manner, everyone would get the wrong idea by
thinking that the Quillen family was afraid of the Lenoir family.
The respect that the Quillen familymanded in Yeringham’s business
world would be lost for good.
s, Emmanuel couldn’t act in ordance with his emotions the way
Mackenzie could. He knew that Felicity was speaking on behalf of the Lenoir
family. She had alreadyid the cards out on the table. If he stayed with the
Quillen family and became even closer to them now, the Lenoir family would
have the perfect excuse to team up with the Verkade family and go against
the Quillen family. He didn’t want that to happen.
In any case, he needed to leave for a while. I have to find Master and save
udette!
