Chapter 506
Samantha had watched over Mackenzie all her life.
121
When Mackenzie was a child, there had been rumors of her not being
Felicity’s biological daughter, fueled by the lack of resemblance between the
two of them. On the other hand, Mackenzie did look a bit like Samantha.
Samantha had remained single all this while, so she treated Mackenzie like
her own daughter.
It could be said that her relationship with Mackenzie was even stronger than
the mother–daughter bond between Mackenzie and Felicity, so naturally, she
knew just how much Mackenzie stayed away from men.
Samantha always thought that she was partly the reason for that, as she too
had never fallen in love with a man before. Therefore, she was extremely
worried that Mackenzie would stay single forever, just like her!
She had been the most thrilled to hear the news of Mackenzie getting
married and was dying to meet her husband. She kept wondering what kind
of man had won over Mackenzie’s cold heart.
Although Felicity was the one who suggested having this dinner, Samantha
was the one who wanted it to happen the most, and so it only stood to
reason that she didn’t mince words when she figured that Felicity had

chased the man off!
“What do you mean by that?”
Felicity never got along with Samantha, and Samantha’s bluntness only
made her respond with a similarly frigid expression.
“What do I mean by that? You understand the words, don’t you?”
Samantha didn’t go easy on Felicity as she ripped into her. “You’re the one
who decided to have this dinner. Everyone came over just so they could take
a look at Mackenzie’s husband and see what kind of a man he is, but you took
it upon yourself to chase him off! Are you toying with us?”
Felicity turned red with fury and the veins on her forehead started throbbing.
Qut of the entire Quillen family, Samantha was the one who treated her the
most poorly.
Felicity had put up with it many times now, but she wasn’t going to put it with
Samantha wagging her finger at her.
The two women were at loggerheads but neither Mackenzie nor Beatrix
showed any sign of stopping them. Sarah had to grit her teeth and do it
herself!
“Don’t blame it on Mom, Aunt Samantha. Emmanuel was the one who chose
to leave!”
Sarah was the only one who would stand up for Felicity.

The other Quillen women simply watched in silence.
Samantha snorted. “Your brother–in–law chose to leave, huh? Are you taking
us for fools or are you saying he’s one? Why would he come all the way here
only to leave for no apparent reason? Why would he have come over in the
first place?”
“Well..” Sarah had nothing to say. Samantha was involved in politics, so
naturally, she had a way with words and a logical mind to go with that.
“Get out of the way!” Samantha wasn’t all that polite with Sarah either. She
shoved her away and continued to rebuke Felicity. “You’re going to have to
answer us today! You’re the one who set up this dinner. All of us dropped
everything else, including work, just so we could come over, and yet you
drove off the star of today’s dinner! Do you think our time can be wasted like
that or do you have no respect for us at all?”
She kept inching her way closer to Felicity who backed away in response.
“Show me a little more respect, Samantha!” Felicity couldn’t take it anymore
and exploded in rage. “Yes, this house belongs to the Quillen family, but
you’re just the Quillen family’s daughters! I’m the daughter–in–law! I’m the
matriarch of this family!”
According to Chanaea’s local customs, women could not represent their
maiden families, especially if they were married. They would be considered

part of their husband’s family instead.
Even though Samantha was single, according to the local customs, her
brother’s wife was the matriarch of the family, not her!
“Have you people ever treated me like I’m a part of your family? All of you
have always treated me poorly as if I’m an outsider!”
The more Felicity let out, the more agitated she became. She threw all
propriety and decorum out the window. “Emmanuel’s my son–in–law. Am I
not allowed to have a private conversation with him? Are you Mackenzie’s
mother, or am I? What right do you have to stick your nose into my
conversation with my son–in–law? Do you think that you, Mackenzie’s aunt,
can have any kind of say in her marriage?”
Felicity seemed to be on the verge of hysteria. None of the other Quillen
women wanted to argue with her now.
On the other hand, Samantha was a straight shooter who didn’t care about
showing courtesy, so she fired right back. “I’m Mackenzie’s aunt! We share the
same last name! We all grew up in this family, so why can’t we care about
Mackenzie’s happiness? Meanwhile, you’re the one who married into this
family, but I’m guessing that your heart’s still with your maiden family, huh?
Don’t think I don’t know about all the times you’ve taken things that belonged
to the Quillen family and fed it back to the Lenoir family. You’ve been living off

us and yet secretly helping your maiden family!”
Many of the Quillen family members knew about this but no one ever
brought it up in public because they wanted to keep the peace. They never
thought Samantha would bring it up right in front of everyone today! Things
were taking a turn for the worse!
Once again, Mackenzie couldn’t stop Samantha in time. Her head was about
to explode!
