Chapter 548
On the other hand, Mackenzie always thought there was more to Sarah than
what was seen on the surface and kept her guard up even higher than she
did with Felicity.
Eventually, the three women continued to converse for a considerable
amount of time until Lexi returned and reminded, “Ms. Quillen, the Unger men
have been outside waiting for some time! If you don’t want to see them, why
don’t I have them return tomorrow instead?”
Mackenzie’s memory was jogged when she heard this, and a slight frown
formed between her brows. “Let them in.”
“Yes, Ms. Quillen.” Lexi turned toward the door and did as instructed.
“Roselynn, the father and son duo of the Unger family, are Jaxton’s relatives,
right? That means he’s your uncle by marriage too. By the way, how are you
and Jaxton doing these days?”
In the meantime, Roselynn was taken aback when she heard this, which filled
her with admiration for her sister–in–law! I don’t even remember them, yet
she knows who they are! How much information can she store in her brain?!
She has such a sharp and meticulous mind! “I’m about to divorce him!” she
said honestly.
Mackenzie nodded upon hearing this. Her attitude toward the Unger family
largely depended on their relationship with Roselynn, and since Roselynn had
said as much, it meant that she didn’t need to be overly courteous with
them!
Afterward, Cain came in looking rather obsequious.
On the other hand, Richie carried himself like a spirited young man who was
pretty proud of himself.
“How nice to meet you, Ms. Quillen! Now that I’m meeting you up close, you
seem even more beautiful than an angel!” Cain immediately began with a
few groveling words, though he obviously meant them. In my fifty years of
life, I have never seen a more beautiful woman than her. If she hadn’t been
born into a wealthy family, she could have become a top celebrity based
solely on her appearance and aura! What an honor it would be for our family
if my son married a woman like her!
“Why did you come to see me, Mr. Unger?” Her tone was fairly cool.
At this instant, Cain felt as though he were confronting an iceberg. Indeed,
she lives up to her reputation as an Icy Female CEO.
“If you have no reason to be here, please leave!”
“Oh! Yes, there is!” Nonetheless, he didn’t expect her to be so impolite
because he also owned a small business and was related to Roselynn. Then,
he immediately signaled his son with a look.
After that, Richie quickly brought out an exquisite box and walked over to
Mackenzie with a smile. “Ms. Quillen, I just got this good wine from abroad but
couldn’t possibly have it all myself. As they say, a good wine should be given
to a beautiful lady, so I came here to offer this to you!” While saying this, he
opened the box.
Despite having the least knowledge of wine, Roselynn could tell how good the
bottle of wine was, and the color of the wine was enough to entice her.
Ultimately, she couldn’t help but remark, “Oh, my! It must’ve been quite
expensive.”
In the meantime, he was delighted to have someone else start the ball rolling
but did not express any gratitude. Instead, he merely used the opportunity to
crow, “I didn’t think you had a good enough eye to tell, Roselynn! This wine
was bought at an auction abroad. It’s a wine made specifically for royalty by
St. Louis Vineyard. I paid over 450 thousand for just one bottle! I’m sure you’ve
never had such wine before, huh?”
On the other hand, Cain tried to signal his son to stop, but it was too late! You
silly boy! Can’t you see how close Ms. Quillen and Roselynn are?! Why are you
saying such things? Do you think the Quillen family cares about a measly 450
thousand? It wouldn’t be so bad if you simply brought it up in passing, but
why are you puffing your chest out and boasting about it like it’s a big deal?
