Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 1274 Misunderstanding

Mackenzie couldn’t help but sigh slightly when she realized that Lare was truly causing her a lot of

trouble!

However, as the eldest daughter and head of the Quillen family, she couldn’t simply ignore Lara’s

behavior. especially with their parents not around. She had to find a way to discipline Lara, which was

proving to be quite a challenge!

Meanwhile, Shane returned to M&L Group with the Diamond Titan Military Technologies contract and

received a hundred thousand bonus. Not only that, but he also received a promotion and a raise!

His male colleagues were envious of him, his female colleagues flattered him, his superiors valued him,

and his subordinates fawned over him. Needless to say, he was feeling quite satisfied with himself!

After he transferred 45,000 to Santiago to buy alcohol, Santiago immediately called him in a panic!

“Shane, be honest with me! Just how many illegal things did you do to earn this money? I like to drink,

but I never drink tainted alcohol!”

“Oh, Master! How many times do I have to tell you? I earned all this money with my skills. Do look like

someone who would dare to break the law with such a timid personality?”

“That’s true, but you only have a junior high school education

“What’s wrong with a junior high school education? Did Bill Gate, Steve Job, or Tom Edison have a

higher education? If you add up our net worth, it would still be several billion! Don’t underestimate me!”

“But they are all more successful than you!”

“What does success have to do with height? How much taller is Jeff Besoz compared to me? Kevin

Heart is not taller than me either, but they still make a lot of money, don’t they? In any case, my money

is absolutely legal and earned through my skills. You can rest assured!”

Shane hung up the phone in a hurry and headed straight to Terence Group after leaving the company.

Today, as the project manager of M&L Group, he was going to meet with Terence Group to discuss

cooperation.

Upon arriving at the branch of Terence Group and announcing his name, an assistant led him to

Beatrix’s office

“What’s that you have there?” Shane couldn’t help but strike up a conversation with the assistant, who

looked quite

adorable.

“This is the lunch takeout for Ms. Beatrix. I brought it along for her!

“Can I help you bring it in?” Shane eagerly offered

“But you’re a guest. How can I be so impolite?”

“It’s all right. As a hero from Hero’s Village, I enjoy helping others!” Shane said before taking the

takeout from the

assistant’s hand.

The assistant could only express her gratitude and leave

Meanwhile, Beatrix was on the phone with Frederick. She had expressed her gratitude for his

protection earlier when Lara had tried to harm her. She planned to invite him to have lunch together as

a way of showing ther

appreciation.

Not only did Frederick help her eliminate the traitor, but even Emmanuel said that Frederick was a loyal

man. She had a favorable impression of him and decided to focus on his development in the future.

However, just as the call connected, she heard someone knocking on her office door.

“Come in!” Beatrix called out casually, and her attention was focused on the computer screen as she

dealt with work. She was wearing a Bluetooth earpiece in preparation for the call.

“Ms. Beatrix, here’s your takeout!”

“Okay. Just put it on the desk!” Beatrix, who was unaware that it was a representative from M&L Group,

assumed it was one of her subordinates and didn’t bother looking up. Her attention was still on other

matters.

Shane felt disappointed by Beatrix’s indifferent attitude. Just as he was about to speak up, he heard

Beatrix suddenly say, “Hey, have you had lunch?”

“Uh… Not yet!” Shane thought she was talking to him and replied quickly.

“Let’s have lunch together then!”

Beatrix continued without looking at him.

“Oh? Really?”

Shane felt embarrassed and couldn’t help but salivate at the delicious aroma of the takeout.

“What’s there to be embarrassed about? We’re all friends here?”

“Well…”

Shane was utterly surprised and felt like he was being treated like royalty. He couldn’t help but wonder

if this person’s charm was just too overwhelming. It was fine that Lola and Lily, the ordinary female

employees, showed interest in him. Could it be that even the esteemed third young lady from the

Quillen family had taken a liking to him?

Alas. If being handsome was a flaw, he must be irredeemably flawed then!

“Since you’re so enthusiastic, I’d be impolite to refuse!”

Shane was not one to be excessively polite. If Beatrix invited him to dinner, he wouldn’t hesitate. He

opened a lunch box and began to savor the meal!

Beatrix sensed the commotion and was startled when she looked up!

What was happening?

Where did this fat guy come from? Why was he so impolite by casually eating her food?

“Ms. Beatrix, what’s wrong?”
