What’s going on?! Emmanuel and Ashton were astonished. Is Mackenzie also here?!

Ashton felt a bit guilty. After all, she had occupied someone else’s husband for a whole night and was now having dinner with
him.
Emmanuel didn’t know how to feel even more so. Shouldn’t Mackenzie still be at the company at this time? How could she be in
the restaurant with Verkade?
“Wow, so romantic!”
“Yeah, I’ve always thought that Mr. Gautier and Ms. Quillen are a perfect match!”
“Gautier, Hubby, I love you! I can’t accept losing to other wormen, but I have nothing to say about losing to Ms. Quillen! I can only
wish you both the best!”
The women around began expressing their feelings, creating a cacophony of excited sounds.
The woman at the adjacent table let out a high-pitched scream, causing discomfort to Emmanuel and Ashton’s eardrums.
Everyone followed Gautier’s gaze immediately when Mackenzie walked out with a cool demeanor.
Even after the morning battle, showing a bit of fatigue and wearing simple makeup, Mackenzie unquestionably outshone the
women in the crowd. Moreover, the aura of a woman who had just been through a fierce battle lingered around her.
“You see for yourself!” The man at the adjacent table finally found an opportunity to retaliate against his female companion,
pointing at Mackenzie. “You and Ms. Quillen are worlds apart. Sometimes, I marvel at the difference between women!”
“You... You!” The woman who admired Gautier turned red with anger, unable to retort. No matter how proud she was, she didn’t
dare to compare herself with Mackenzie.
Emmanuel continued to ignore the adjacent table, widening his eyes as he watched Mackenzie approach Gautier. His heart
thumped loudly. What had happened during these two days he wasn’t around?
“You are very talented indeed, Mr. Gautier. You even resemble a prince from a fairy tale when you play the piano,” Mackenzie
said, and the entire room fell silent.
The smile on Gautier’s face became even more enchanting.
In the audience, Lara wore an expectant expression, resembling a flower about to bloom. She hoped that her elder cousin and
the senior could be together, for she believed they were a match made in heaven, the prince and princess of Yeringham.
Moreover, if their families allied and dominated Yeringham, it wouldn’t even be a dream to rule the national market. By then, she
could truly become the princess of Chanaea!

However, Mackenzie’s next words took a turn. “Unfortunately, I don’t really understand piano compositions. I’m afraid I can’t
grasp your emotions in the music. Mr. Gautier, please play it for the connoisseurs. Excuse me, I’ll take my leave!”
What?! The audience, expecting a romantic love story, suddenly exclaimed in nervousness. It was a scene of unrequited love. It
appeared that reality was indeed not a fairy tale.
“Mackenzie!”
“Mackenzie!”
Simultaneously, two calls came from both ends of the restaurant. Gautier and Emmanuel stood up at the same time, shouting at
the same woman. Both of them looked tense and concerned.
After calling out, they also glanced at each other.
The entire audience was in shock.
Lara also stared at Emmanuel, wondering why he had appeared there. He was such a killjoy.
Mackenzie, seeing Emmanuel, parted her lips and inexplicably relaxed.
The Heart of the Sun was still on her, and she feared Gautier might harm her. She was well aware of Gautier’s intentions; he
wanted to win her heart. If she couldn’t be won over, she worried Gautier might forcefully make her his.
Now that Emmanuel had shown up before her, she could finally relax, knowing nobody could harm her with her husband around.
However, when she saw Ashton sitting across from Emmanuel, she became evidently angry. Without acknowledging anyone,
she stormed toward the door.
“Mackenzie!” The two men simultaneously exclaimed and then rushed toward Mackenzie.
The restaurant’s patrons were all stunned. They all enjoyed a dramatic love triangle.
Although Emmanuel moved faster, Gautier was closer and was the first to grab Mackenzie’s wrist. However, in the face of
absolute strength, being first didn’t matter. Emmanuel caught up and delivered a punch to Gautier’s face, knocking him down,
roaring, “Hands off my wife, Verkade!”
