Chapter 452
Mackenzie observed Emmanuel’s anxious expression and could not help but
chuckle. “What’s the matter? Do I have a contagious disease or something?
Why can you guys buy groceries at the market, but I can’t?”
He laughed and humorously explained, “You should ask your employees
about that. Imagine their faces if they found out you went to the market to
buy groceries.”
As he said this, she could not help but think of Lexi and Beatrix. If those two
knew she went to the market to buy groceries, their expressions would surely
be more exaggerated than his!
However, Mackenzie insisted on going and coldly stated, “After work, I’m no
longer the CEO. I’m just an ordinary wife.”
Huh? But- Emmanuel felt as if a lightning bolt had struck him when he heard
those words. Her sudden statement was shockingly lethal!
Despite her statement, it was simply Impossible for her, as the esteemed
CEO of Terence Group, to go to the market like an ordinary housewife. She
took care of buying and paying, while the tasks of carrying groceries and
bargaining naturally fell on him, the family cook.
As she walked, she was like the eye of a storm, with a large group of people
automatically trailing behind her.
Those husbands, who accompanied their wives to the market for groceries,
and the male stall owners could not help but involuntarily turn their heads to
admire this stunning beauty, Mackenzie, only to be pinched in the ear or
kicked in the ass by their wives.
In short, her arrival at the market caused a sensation akin to a celebrity
entering a fan zone!
“Miss, are you a celebrity?”
“That’s right. Why would someone like you come here for groceries? With just
one item from you, you could buy our entire stall!”
“Miss, why do you only have one servant with you?”
Many people around engaged in conversations with Mackenzie. When she
heard others say that Emmanuel was her servant, she could not help but
laugh. But in the next moment, she swiftly regained her composure as
laughing in public would undermine the composed image she had carefully
maintained over the years.
“Mackenzie, we’ve bought enough! I can’t carry anymore, even if we buy more!”,”
**
Hearing his reminder, she turned back and saw him in a sorry state,
burdened with bags of live seafood. But only his build and strength enabled
him to carry hundreds of pounds of food. Other men would likely struggle to
keep up with her shopping frenzy.
“Okay, let’s go home!” At least she had enjoyed shopping.
After Mackenzie’s departure, the market gradually returned to its usual state.
Both the men and the stall owners eagerly awaited the return of this
mesmerizing beauty. She captivated them with her charm and impressed
them with her generosity. Who would not like a woman like her?
After arriving home, Emmanuel hurriedly stored the groceries in the
refrigerator, filling it almost to the brim.
With just one trip to the market with her, they bought enough groceries for
half a month!
‘Mackenzie, what are you doing?” He turned around and found Mackenzie
busy in the kitchen, seemingly cooking away.
Oh my God! Did she catch a fever today? After being married for so long,
Emmanuel had no idea she could.cook!
She, however, calmly stared at him and coldly snorted, “I’ll cook dinner
tonight, so stop being so surprised!”
Stop being surprised? He was stunned. If her employees and family were to
witness this scene, they would undoubtedly be amazed.
“Mackenzie, I’m not sick or injured today, so let me handle the cooking. You’re already busy with work, so focus on that!” He
attempted to usher Mackenzie
T
out of the kitchen, but her piercing gaze made him involuntarily shiver.
