Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore


Chapter 423

"What did he do wrong? How did he let you down? You insisted on divorcing him and even throwing him out of the house with nothing. He was forced to leave his hometown and work here silently while suffering every day alone!" "Do you know how cruel it is to love someone and be forced to leave them while only able to secretly yearn for them?"

Killian continued to rant as if he wanted to swing his spatula and hit someone!

Emmanuel had mentioned his family situation to others here, and somehow the information reached Killian. As he was also experienced in matters of the heart, he couldn't help but scold Mackenzie as he felt that she was too discontented.

Mackenzie swore that apart from Terence, no one had ever dared to speak to her like this!

However, she wasn't angry at this moment. She just felt heartbroken. She wouldn't mind even if Killian actually went ahead and slapped, her and might even feel a bit relieved because she felt that the chef was right. Emmanuel had come to the Onza alone, endured hardships, and secretly yearned for her. It was all her fault.

He shouldn't have suffered like this. He just liked her!

She truly was a bad woman when it came to relationships!

"Mr. Killian, please stop scolding her!"

The two apprentices on the side were anxious and loudly reminded Killian, 

"Emmanuel went with Miss Zora to Madam Lofis' office to ask for his salary!

I'm afraid Madam Lofis will reprimand him!"

"Yeah. Both Madam Lofis and Miss Zora are not good people. They've even resorted to violence in dealing with salary disputes before. I'm afraid Emmanuel will suffer if he clashes with them!"

When Mackenzie heard this, she felt her rage surging within her.

Why were there still unscrupulous employers who refused to pay their workers in this era?
How could her man be bullied by these people?

She quickly took out a stack of money and handed it to Killian while saying, "Sir, please take me to find Emmanuel!"

Everyone present was stunned after seeing that stack of money, which was easily worth at least 5,000!

They always saw Emmanuel dressed plainly and living a frugal life. They never expected his wife to be so wealthy!

Killian glanced at Mackenzie, then at the money in her hand, and felt even more conflicted.

This woman had money, yet she let her husband suffer alone by working. It was outrageous!

Yet, when he saw that she was sincere and earnest in finding Emmanuel, he pushed the money back and said, "I don't need or want your money. Just make sure you and Emmanuel can restore your relationship and live a good life! You don't know that Emmanuel is truly a person with a strong sense of but it only results in him being targeted by her. He's made to do the dirtiest
and heaviest work every day, and he's constantly verbally abused. They just want to force him to leave without giving him a penny of his salary!"

As Mackenzie listened to Killian's words, her anger grew stronger and stronger by the second!
How dare these shameless people bully her man?

Hmph! Just wait and see how I deal with all of you!

"All right, take her to Madam Lofis' office quickly!"

So, the two apprentices quickly led Mackenzie to Madam Lofis' office after receiving the green light from Killian.

They also enjoyed being around Emmanuel and were even a recipient of his kindness.

He not only helped them with some heavy work, but when Miss Zora wanted to squeeze them dry and drive them away while even resorting to intimidation and suppression, it was none other than Emmanuel who stood up for them. That was why they were still here.

So, when they saw him being targeted and openly bullied by Miss Zora, they were frustrated by their own limited abilities to help him.

Now that Emmanuel's wealthy and beautiful wife had arrived, they hoped she could assist him!

Meanwhile, in Madam Lofis' office, Miss Zora, who was dressed in professional attire, had a stern expression as he led Emmanuel inside.

When they arrived in front of an elegant woman wearing pink glasses, Miss Zora's sullen face suddenly transformed into extreme flattery. "Madam Lofis, your health is important. You should remember to take breaks even if you're busy! Here, let me make you a cup of coffee!"
