Chapter 733


    “Emmanuel, don’t assume that cozying up to us will make us forget what


    happened on New Year’s Eve when you left the gathering halfway through!”


    When it was Hannah’s turn, she smiled ambiguously and said, “It seems like


    you still owe us an exnation.”


    She improved her attitude toward him!


    This is because she knew that Terence was satisfied with him as his


    grandson-inw.


    However, she and the others were not satisfied!


    They couldn’t bear the thought of seeing Mackenzie gradually fall by


    associating with a man like him. Their involvement in an intimate rtionship


    could potentially lead to the fall of the Quillen family.


    However, they had heard that Mackenzie had already fallen. She had also


    slept with this man. So, their feelings were extremelyplicated now.


    Cha


    After all, whether a woman had given herself to a man or not was a


    Hannah had been utterly skeptical before about Emmanuel genuinely


    bing part of the Quillen family. However, she was not so sure now.


    So, she couldn’t maintain her prior attitude, causing unnecessary friction.


    Otherwise, if Emmanuel did be a member of the Quillen family in the


    future, it would pose problems for her.


    The women of wealthy families were usually very thoughtful, considering


    every step and evaluating each action. They were not simple-minded


    people.


    “Aunt Hannah, and all the rtives of the Quillen family, I want to formally


    apologize to all of you.”


    In order not to make things difficult for Mackenzie, Emmanuel had to


    apologize to the whole family, “That night, udette was critically ill, and her


    elder brother, Quintus, asked me to rescue her. That’s why I left.”


    Everyone was well aware of it. So, when they heard him say it again, there


    wasn’t much reaction.


    “Oh, I see!”


    Stephanie, the eldest aunt, adopted an understanding expression, but she


    asked immediately, “So, was Ms. Lenoir saved?”


    Everyone’s eyes were on Emmanuel, and some even had a hint of a smile.


    “She was saved that night, but she has passed away.”


    Emmanuel answered with a gloomy expression.

    “Oh, so your efforts that night were futile.


    Hannah immediately responded.


    “Oh, what a pity. It’s quite a waste for you to have cared so much about her.”


    “Why did she just die like that?”


    Other women joined in the discussion too.


    They wanted to embarrass Emmanuel and belittle the impact of his


    exnation.


    He left his wife on New Year’s Eve for a woman who wasn’t ultimately saved.


    Was that an eptable behavior?


    “Enough of this discussion. Let’s proceed with the banquet.”


    Terence gave an order at that time, obviously wanting to help Emmanuel out.


    Now that Emmanuel had slept with his granddaughter, he was even more


    certain about this position as his grandson-inw. How could he not protect


    him?

    Unexpectedly, Emmanuel grew serious. “Aunt Hannah, how can you say it


    was futile? Every life is valuable. Furthermore, udette saved both


    Mackenzie and me. Just because she’s no longer here, does that mean I


    shouldn’t have tried to help her back then? We all have a destiny to die. Does that make our current


    existence meaningless?”


    As soon as he finished speaking, the women of the Quillen family looked at


    each other.


    The atmosphere suddenly cooled down!


    Mackenzie remained silent.


    She knew that most of the women in the Quillen family looked down on


    Emmanuel and didn’t want him to join the Quillen family, so they would make


    things difficult for him.


    It might be Aunt Hannah’s strategy to deliberately provoke Emmanuel and


    make him get angry.


    After all, who would want to add a new member who would make the family


    discordant every day?


    “You’re right. I’ll apologize to you. Is that okay?”


    Hannah deliberately apologized to Emmanuel.


    After all, he was Mackenzie’swful husband.


    This scene didn’t escape the notice of the other women in the Quillen family.


    Many of them were growing more disapproving of Emmanuel. Even Hannah


    had softened her stance. What if this man used the protection of Terence


    and Mackenzie to intimidate them in the future?


    “There’s no need for that.”


    Emmanuel didn’t understand their thoughts, but he replied calmly.


    However, he already felt exhausted. Reality’s prestigious families were not as


    depicted in novels.


    They were even more challenging to integrate into than the fictional ones.
