Chapter 568
“You’re not going to admit it, huh?” Mackenzie looked at the dumbfounded
Emmanuel and ruthlessly exposed his scheme. “First, you and Lexi conspired
and planned this surprise without telling me! Second, the purchase time on
the card clearly indicates that you purchased them this morning! Emmanuel,
this is premeditated!”
Caught by his smart wife, he smiled awkwardly.
Unexpectedly, she snorted coldly and commanded, “What are you standing
there for? Won’t you open the car door for me?”
“Oh, right!” Emmanuel hurriedly went to open the rear door.
However, Mackenzie furrowed her eyebrows. What a clueless man! Why
didn’t he open the front passenger door? Does he not want me to sit beside
him? While still fuming, she walked over to the Maserati and saw that the
back seat had been transformed into a stunning, all–white special seat. The
design was not only grand, but it also had a sense of purity!
Seeing her surprised expression, he felt a sense of accomplishment. After
that, he scratched his head and smiled. “Mackenzie, do you like the exclusive
seat specially made for you?”
Actually, the script prepared by Rhea wasn’t like this. It was more like, “Do you
like the seat specially made for you, my queen? From now on, you’ll be the
only queen in our household!”
Nevertheless, it struck him as too cheesy, and if he said a line like that, he
wouldn’t be Emmanuel anymore.
Despite the line losing half its impact, his wife still found this naturally clueless
man with a slightly romantic side endearing. It wasn’t cheesy, and it had a
touch of authenticity.
“Did you come up with this?” Mackenzie didn’t immediately get in the car but
stared at him and asked.
“Uh, no!” Emmanuel scratched his head again, this time laughing awkwardly.
“A female friend taught me. I hope it doesn’t make you feel awkward.”
Just as I suspected! She didn’t know who his female friend was, but she had
a sneaking suspicion it was Lexi. Just great! How dare she teach my man to
do such cheesy things? Still, it feels quite nice!
“Considering your effort, I won’t offer any commentary now. Just don’t come
up with so many tricks next time!” Mackenzie reprimanded Emmanuel and
then climbed into the car, where she crossed her legs like a queen and
rested her hands on the sides of the seat. Surprisingly, this seat is quite
comfortable!
As clueless as he was, he had no idea about a woman’s contradictory nature.
Moreover, he did not anticipate his wife would be pleased, as he believed she
would not approve of his actions.
As Emmanuel escorted the beautiful CEO into the car, the security guard, as
the only witness, finally closed his hanging jaw and exclaimed, “Wow, even a
man who punches above his weight can succeed in pursuing a girl with this
method?” He wondered if he should learn a thing or two and pursue Miss
Beatrix from the Quillen family. While everyone liked the icy goddess, he
preferred a lively and energetic beauty like Beatrix!
Although Mackenzie got into the car, she didn’t initiate any conversation with
her husband throughout the journey.
On the contrary, he drove without hastily bringing up any topics of
conversation.
Soon after, they returned to the Yociam Residence. As Mackenzie entered the
house and headed to the bedroom, Emmanuel gently grabbed her wrist.
“Mackenzie, I need to talk to you!”
However, she gently shook off his hand, and when she looked back at him,
her eyes radiated a cold and icy light.
What’s going on? It seems like she’s still angry!
“Emmanuel, Claudette’s life had been saved, right?” At this instant, Mackenzie
didn’t want to listen to whatever Emmanuel had to say. She still had that
anger inside her, and if he couldn’t appease her tonight, she would make him
sleep outside in the cold!
