Chapter 613
“Is... Is she Manny’s wife?!” Shane was the first to exclaim in shock. At first
glance, he thought Mackenzie was a goddess who had descended to the
mortal world!
He, on the other hand, was a keyboard warrior who loved to comment on
beautiful women online. Gradually, he developed a high standard toward
women and believed that true beauty should possess both looks and
temperament, beauty inside and out. However, even with his critical eye, he
could not find any flaws in the woman before him!
It was not just him, though. Seeing the envious gazes of everyone, even
Alessandra suddenly felt a sense of dizziness as if her eyes were playing
tricks on her! How should I describe my daughter–in–law? Too beautiful. Too
pure. Too unique. Too elegant and poised! She was undoubtedly excited and
happy, but she could not help but worry deep down. Is my ‘ugly son‘ worthy of
such a lady?
“Mom, Mackenzie is here to greet you for the New Year. Why aren’t you saying
anything?” It was Roselynn who came over in time to remind Alessandra.
She excitedly and loudly exclaimed, “Ah! Mackenzie, you finally came. I’ve
been eagerly awaiting your arrival!”
Terence burst into hearty laughter. “Apologies for keeping Mrs. Lowe waiting.
Mackenzie and I were preparing some New Year gifts, so we arrived late,
haha.” After speaking, he waved his hand.
Immediately, Alfred signaled outside the door, and a row of men in black
suits promptly carried in large and small gift boxes. The entire room was in
astonishment.
“Please make way!”
Howard and his wife, blocking the path, were directly pushed aside.
Alessandra only then realized that there were so many people outside. She
wore an expression of sincere anxiety. “Old Mr. Quillen, isn’t this too much? I’m
happy to have you and Mackenzie here for the New Year! We really can’t
accept so many gifts from you!”
She finally started to worry! My daughter–in–law’s financial power is not
simply that of a high–level executive in a large corporation, right? Why would
they bring so many bodyguards and subordinates just for a trip? Is her
grandfather the leader of some shady organization? However, his demeanor
and style don’t quite match that description! They’re more like a prominent
wealthy family! What should I do? Help!
Alessandra had a clear understanding of her son’s status. It was considered
a blessing from the ancestors to find a wife after going on 18 blind dates, so
how could he enter a prestigious wealthy family with his humble
background?
“Haha, Howard, do you still think I’m lying? Do you find yourself ridiculous?”
Frederick saw Howard being pushed aside and could not help but feel a
sense of relief even though he was still single!
Shane also added fuel to the fire, taking advantage of his shoved wife on–the-
ground, and whispered, “Hurry up and hide your wife, or else the whole village
will compare her to Mackenzie. You’ll be so embarrassed!”
Damn it! Howard instantly broke down. He raised his arm high and shouted,
“It’s fake! It’s all fake! You can’t fool me!”
All eyes in the room were drawn to him instantly, thinking he was crazy in
unison. Even if Emmanuel’s wife is more beautiful than yours, there’s no need
to react like this, right?
“Emmanuel, tell us the truth! Where did you rent this beautiful lady from,
some company?” Howard thought he had the truth in his hands. He pointed
at Emmanuel and loudly questioned him.
Emmanuel looked puzzled, not understanding what he was talking about.
What company?
Seeing his silence, Howard continued to shout, “Don’t think I don’t know!
Nowadays, many companies specialize in designing setups, providing actors
and props to assist losers in showing off at home! You, who haven’t returned
for ten years, suddenly come back and marry a heavenly goddess. She also
happens to be from a prestigious family. Do you think I’d believe you? You
paid a professional team to stage this act, right?”
