Chapter 304
“What happened, Roselynn?” Mackenzie rushed to the cliff and found
Roselynn.
Mackenzie had been dealing with the company’s affairs the whole day and
only just found out about the cliff accident, so she rushed over immediately.
“When Manny and Ms. Lenoir were bungee jumping, the rope broke and they
fell!” Roselynn was all choked up.
“What?!” Mackenzie, who was usually composed, widened her eyes with
incredulity, her expression even freezing for a moment.
But the next second, she called Lexi and instructed her to arrange a rescue
team to search the mountain.
Not only that, she personally called the relevant departments and ordered,
“Even if you have to turn the mountain upside down, find them for me before
dawn, do you understand?”
Meanwhile, Roselynn quietly followed behind Mackenzie.
It was only now, after seeing Mackenzie’s cold and domineering side, that she
realized the kind of woman her little brother had married.
Mackenzie could kill with one glance, and Roselynn finally realized that the
young woman’s slight aloofness toward Emmanuel was already her best
side.
The scenic spot manager arrived in two shakes and was also scolded
mercilessly by Mackenzie.
With just one phone call from Mackenzie, hundreds of rescue teams were
summoned, and it gave Roselynn an even more profound understanding of
the true extent of her sister–in–law’s power. No wonder the previous major
issues at home could be resolved so easily!
Meanwhile, Jaxton was spooked. He realized that he must never offend the
Lowe family, or he would be dead before knowing how he upset Mackenzie.
Another hour later, the captain of the rescue team approached Mackenzie,
trembling as he reported, “Ms. Quillen, it’s already late at night and this
mountain is so vast, not to mention that the valley is pitch black so we can’t
see a thing. We really can’t find them!”
“You’re all useless!” Mackenzie reprimanded coldly. “What use do I have of
you and your team if you can’t save anyone? Since you’re incapable,
someone else should take your spot!”
The captain’s face turned pale instantly. He knew Mackenzie had that kind of
influence. His immediate superior was a woman from the Quillen family. If
Mackenzie just mentioned it to her, he could be laid off the very next day.
“I... I understand, Ms. Quillen. I’ll immediately allocate more manpower to
search the valley!” said the captain while wondering just who the two people
who fell off the cliff were to Mackenzie.
Having not received any solid news the whole time, Mackenzie checked the
time again. It was already past midnight. At that, she gritted her teeth and
instructed the rescue team to secure safety measures for her. She would go
down and search for them herself.
“No, Ms. Quillen, you can’t do this! The environment down there is extremely
dangerous and complex. Moreover, it’s nighttime! You might encounter
unexpected danger.”
“Yes, yes... Leave this kind of thing to us...”
The group quickly dissuaded her.
However, Mackenzie barked and ordered forcefully, “Enough yapping! Just do
as I say!”
Emmanuel Lowe, you idiot! I can’t believe you actually went out with
Claudette! Well, just wait until I find you. I’ll remind you who’s your wife!
An hour later, Mackenzie descended to the bottom of the valley using a
suspended rope.
Although the captain of the rescue team personally accompanied her along
with a few others, Mackenzie was more agile than them. Moreover, because
she was more concerned about Emmanuel’s safety, she quickly grew
impatient with their slow movements and left them behind to continue the
search on her own!
“Emmanuel! Lowe, you idiot! Can you hear me? Hurry up and come out with
Lenoir, or I’ll kill you!”
Mackenzie had never behaved so ungraciously before. There had never been
a time in the past 27 years of her life when she was so unruly.
Alas, she ultimately lost to her anger and worry.
If Emmanuel died just like that and word got out that my husband died while
bungee jumping with another woman, imagine how humiliated I’ll become!
Yes, this is it. This is exactly why!
Mackenzie firmly believed it was the reason why she was here in the middle
of the night searching for that man. It had nothing to do with caring for him
and definitely not because she liked him!
Huff...
