Chapter 769
“I’m also scratching my head over this for my sister,” Emmanuel replied
slowly, but he didn’t continue. Instead, he advised, “Here’s some tea to relieve
fatigue. Mackenzie, why don’t you finish this cup of tea first?”
Mackenzie glared at him with a cold expression. Still, she followed his advice
and took a few sips of the tea.
Only then did Emmanuel continue speaking. “My sister and that guy have no
feelings for each other anymore. She wants a divorce, but my mom is dead
set against it!”
“So, that’s how it is. Then, there’s no need to collaborate with the Oatleys!”
Mackenzie immediately made the decision.
Emmanuel said seriously, “Mackenzie, thank you for caring so much about my
family, but when it comes to business matters, I hope you’re still making
decisions in the best interest of Terence Group.”
“Humph! Do I need you to teach me how to do things?” Mackenzie pretended
to be aloof. In reality, she had always been like this. When did she ever learn
to be worldly-wise after getting married?
Knowing her character, Emmanuel wasn’t angry at her response. In fact, he
even found it kind of cute. “Mackenzie, why don’t you take a hot bath and
relax for a while?”
“I got it. Don’t nag at me like my dad!” Mackenzie seemed impatient, but deep
down inside, she felt that this kind of life wasn’t bad at all. “Oh, by the way!”
She was about to go to the bathroom when she suddenly turned around and
said, “I’ll find some time to talk to your mom about your sister’s situation. She
might listen to me!”
Emmanuel’s face lit up at once. He and Roselynn were Alessandra’s children;
sometimes, she might not really understand when he discussed these
relationship matters with her. However, if Mackenzie was willing to talk to her,
she might be able to persuade her! “Thank you, Mackenzie!”
“Humph!” Mackenzie turned around coldly in response to his words of thanks.
Why is this idiot being so polite?
Mackenzie coming out of her room.
“What’s wrong? You don’t look right!” Mackenzie immediately noticed that
something wasn’t right with Emmanuel.
“Ryder said that Tommy suddenly got possessed and is vomiting severely
now. His life might be in danger!”
“What? That’s so serious!” Mackenzie was also surprised. “How could this
happen all of a sudden?”
“I don’t know either. I have to go over to take a look. I won’t be able to drive
you to work!”
“Okay, just go ahead!” Understanding the seriousness of the situation,
Mackenzie let Emmanuel hurry to Ryder’s place.
On the other hand, Ryder was still at a loss for what to do after hanging up
the phone. After pondering for a moment, he quickly boiled some water and
then trotted outside, wanting to prepare a set of silver needles for Emmanuel
first. Unexpectedly, just after running out of his house, he came face to face
with the black Corolla he had seen at the restaurant yesterday. He didn’t stop
or think much about it; instead, he continued running toward the pharmacy.
“Huh? How come it’s that ugly man from yesterday?” Blake thought it was too
much of a coincidence when he saw Ryder. At the same time, an inexplicable
bad feeling rose in his heart.
