Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 569
Hmph!
“Yes, she’s awake!” Emmanuel answered with a smile but noticed Mackenzie’s
expression seemed even colder now. Strange, why does she seem even less
happy? “General Lenoir has promised not to compete with the Quillen family
for the energy market and won’t engage in any business rivalry with you
anymore,” he quickly added the main point.
“I know,” she replied with the same icy coldness.
Due to her grandfather’s financial backing, she wasn’t afraid of the Lenoir
family. In the long run, the Quillen family would not be the ones to suffer, but
as the company’s CEO, she would be slightly more exhausted.
Ultimately, her husband reviving Claudette brought mixed feelings for her.
Sigh, a new invincible rival in love will emerge! What should I do? Oh well, I
should deal with the Sarah situation first.
Immediately after, Mackenzie handed her phone to Emmanuel.
While unsure of his wife’s intentions, he froze when he looked at the phone,
and his face turned slightly pale too. Finally, he understood why his wife was
so cold and angry.
“How do you explain this?” She sat on the couch, crossing her legs. With her
arms folded, she gave off an aura of a frosty CEO interrogating a

subordinate.
“How do I explain?” Emmanuel laughed bitterly, spreading his hands. “This
actually happened. Sarah was bitten by a snake in the wilderness. I couldn’t
just leave her alone.”
Mackenzie was angry at his response. How could this man have the audacity
to speak so boldly? Fortunately, her sharp gaze observed his sincere
expression, and she knew he wasn’t being deceitful. “Then, why did she go to
the wilderness with you?” She pressed on with her line of inquiry.
“I was going to Eastern Star Mountain to see my master, and coincidentally,
she wanted to find a medicinal herb called Verdant Bloom for her mother. We
happened to meet there...” He gave her a full rundown of what happened.
Suddenly, he frowned and added, “There were only the two of us at the time,
so who could have taken those photos and videos?”
After hearing this, she sneered, her lips curving into an attractive arc. “Now
you know what kind of woman Sarah is, don’t you?”
He was taken aback when he learned this. Despite the overwhelming
evidence in front of him, he still had trouble believing Sarah was such a
deviously manipulative person! In what way was she able to foresee my
arrival in West Shelter Village and set up this elaborate charade? Also, that
arriy

friendly charm she showed toward Amy... Could that also be an act?
“Avoid communicating with her in the future, understood?” Mackenzie
demanded directly. She could forgive Emmanuel for this incident since Sarah
intentionally threw herself at him, and Emmanuel had admitted there had
been no sexual encounter between them.
After making up her mind to trust her husband, she would no longer dwell on
this matter. However, if it were to happen again, she definitely wouldn’t be
able to accept it!
“Well-” His voice trailed off slightly.
As she took in his apparent uncertainty, her glare sharpened. I’ve already put
the past behind me, giving him a way out, but why does this man still want to
be involved with Sarah? It doesn’t matter if she is his sister–in–law or just
some random girl; he should sever ties with her!
“Mackenzie, I can promise to keep my distance from her, but I can’t
completely cut off contact with her,” Emmanuel responded rationally.
He could end things with Sarah for Mackenzie’s sake, but he couldn’t change
the fact that she was his wife’s sister. Due to Sarah’s assistance in caring for
Amy and the guardian of West Star Village, he could not completely cut off
contact with her.
Since it was not in keeping with his nature to lie, he had no intention of doing

so now to make his wife happy.
After hearing this, Mackenzie’s anger reached a boiling point, and she
pointed toward the door. “Fine, since that’s the case, get out! Sleep outside in
the cold tonight!”
