Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 421
These words couldn't be said to anyone else. They could only be quietly spoken when she was alone as it made her feel a little more relieved.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Jimmy finally took the risk of being scolded and couldn't help but approach.

He thought he heard a familiar name just now but couldn't hear it clearly enough to be sure.
"Bring me the bill please."

Mackenzie didn't scold him and had no intention of staying any longer. She just wanted to pay and continue searching for Emmanuel.

"Huh?" Jimmy was startled.

He thought he heard Mackenzie calling the name, "Emmanuel" and wanted to tell her that they had a new employee at the restaurant named Emmanuel. Furthermore, their tastes seemed similar. So, he wanted to suggest that they meet and talk.

Who would have thought that Mackenzie ordered a table full of food, and two expensive bottles of wine but didn't touch any of the dishes or have a sip of wine and wanted to pay and leave?
Was she crazy?

However, the beautiful lady had money whereas Jimmy, a part-time worker, could only comply.

After Mackenzie settled the bill, she turned around to leave.

Yet, just as she was about to step out of the door, she seemed to hear someone in the neighboring room cursing.

"You want money? You won't get anything, so get lost! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Miss Zora, you're being unreasonable!"

"You want to talk about reason, huh? If you dare, go talk to Madam Lofis. I'd like to see if you want money or your life. Hehe..."

The voice quickly faded away.

However, it was this faint conversation that suddenly revitalized the previously listless Mackenzie.

Her beautiful eyes instantly turned icy.

She could discern that the voice she just heard arguing seemed to belong to Emmanuel!
Was that dummy Emmanuel being bullied by someone?

"This is outrageous! Who dares to bully my man?"

Mackenzie's face turned cold and domineering as she spoke. So, she followed the direction from which the voice had come without hesitation and disregarded everything in her path.
Alas, she was quickly intercepted by two restaurant staff members!

"Miss, that's our restaurant's staff area. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed in!"

"Get out of my way! I'm going in!"

Mackenzie completely ignored the obstruction.

Her dominating aura and the chilling presence exuding from her body made the two staff members hesitate to stop her.

They both had a strange feeling as if this woman resembled their boss. She even possessed a power that surpassed their boss'.

Who was she exactly?

"Hey, Miss! Miss!"

After the two staff members regained their senses, they still wanted to continue blocking Mackenzie, but she had already pushed open the door and barged into the backstage room.
When she entered, she was taken aback. Inside was the kitchen area with only one elderly chef and two young apprentices. There was no sign of Emmanuel or any other woman.

Could she have misheard or mistaken the place?

Yet, Mackenzie was an assertive and confident woman. She believed that her hearing and judgment couldn't be wrong!

"Miss, do you have any business here? Outsiders are not allowed to enter our kitchen!" said one of the young apprentices as they approached and blocked Mackenzie's path.

At that moment, Mackenzie couldn't proceed further. Behind her, two security guards from the restaurant were walking in and ready to escort her out. They wouldn't hesitate to act just because Mackenzie was attractive. On the contrary, they saw this as an opportunity to take advantage of her beauty, whether by getting a hug or a touch from a stunning woman like her. 
After all, how many men wouldn't want to take advantage of a beautiful woman?

Especially since unique men like Emmanuel were quite rare.

"Wait, wait! Please don't do anything!" Suddenly, a panicked voice came from behind.
