Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore


Chapter 429

When Mariah heard what Emmanuel sald, her facial expression turned even prouder. "So, you want me to let you go, huh? That's fine with me, too. But on two conditions!"

"Do tell, Madam Lofis." Although Emmanuel knew the conditions must be demanding, he figured he should give her a chance and listen to what she had to offer.

Mackenzie, too, held her horses. After all, as Terence Group's CEO, she was not someone who had no patience. I have to keep my cool for a moment, especially when my men have yet to arrive.

"First, you and your wife must compensate 150 thousand for our losses. And secondly, get down on your knees, admit your wrongdoings, and beg us for mercy," Mariah stated. Her tone was full of intolerance.

As soon as those words escaped her lips, everyone present was stunned. including the security guards, everyone was aware that Vivian was the malignant one. If truth be told, they believed she deserved to get beaten up.

After all, she was the one who deducted Emmanuel's wages first and then insulted him and his wife. For that reason, they still secretly sided with Emmanuel and Mackenzie, even though they got paid by Mariah and worked for the hotel.

Killian shook his head and sighed as well. However, just when he was about to persuade Emmanuel and Mackenzie to keep calm and make a concession, he heard a sneer.

"Hey, Lofis, are you trying to make me die laughing with your self-complacency? Who do you think you are? I never intended to spare you, but you are devising to let me off instead? Are you an idiot?"

Instantaneously, the people present in the office gasped when they heard Mackenzie's words. This woman is too savage! We have been working in this hotel for years, but we have never seen anyone dare to talk to Madam Lofis like this!

Emmanuel, too, looked at Mackenzie in surprise. Considering she always kept an icy demeanor, he was slightly unfamiliar with this side of her today. In his mind, he wondered who caused her invasive attitude today. "Emmanuel, we're leaving!" Mackenzie never wanted to continue the fight. Thus, she took his hand and walked toward the door.

However, the security guards by the door hurriedly blocked them in their path. Without Mariah's order, they dared not let Mackenzie and Emmanuel leave the office.

"Scram! Or you will bear the consequences!" Mackenzie warned coldly. Despite her voice sounding soft, it had an awe-inspiring authority. None of the security guards thought it was a weak threat. In fact, they all felt they would face some dire consequences for real if they didn't comply.

"You think you can leave just like that? In your dreams! Just watch how I'm going to punish you!" Mariah spoke through gritted teeth. Just when she was about to order the security guards to take action, someone ran in from outside with sweats beaded on their forehead and shouted, "This is bad!

Madam Lofis, this is bad! A dense crowd and many vehicles have surrounded our hotel!"

"What?!" Once again, everyone focused their attention on Mackenzie upon hearing that, somehow feeling that it must have something to do with her, who was full of confidence.

"How many men in total?" Mariah asked, panic-stricken.

"Madam Lofis, I think there are thousands."

"What?! Thousands!?" The woman had a look of disbelief as she wondered if she had heard it wrong.

Meanwhile, the security guards turned pale with fright on the spot. Holy sh*t! There are only a few dozen security guards in the entire hotel, but Emmanuel and his wife have thousands of reinforcements! Things will most certainly not look well for us if we are to fight them. No way! We won't die for the sake of salary!

Even Emmanuel was taken aback by the number of men who showed up. Then, he looked at Mackenzie in shock. Never in his wildest dreams had he thought that his icy-cold wife would have such power!

At this moment, Mackenzie wasn't in a hurry to leave anymore. She calmly walked toward the sofa, sat down, and said frostily, "You won't let us leave, huh? Fine! As you wish, then."
Mariah instantly panicked. What should I do now?
