Chapter 842
Roselynn, on the other hand, peeled the skin of an apple silently while
listening to her mother ramble,
Firstly, she knew she couldn’t part on good terms with the Oatleys. Secondly,
Alessandra’s health wasn’t stable, and she couldn’t handle too much stress.
Roselynn worried she might say something wrong in the heat of the moment
and end up causing more distress to her mother. So, staying silent seemed
like the best course of action.
“Why aren’t you responding to me? You’re really driving me crazy!”
Alessandra lightly pounded her chest, her voice tinged with a hint of tears.
Initially, she was already anxious, and now that her daughter’s affair with.
Jaxton had become viral, everyone called her daughter a demoness who
destroyed her husband and his family. How would she ever be able to
remarry well in the future?
Roselynn, too, was anxious, caught between wanting to speak and knowing
that silence wasn’t a solution. She was truly unsure about what to do.
“Mom!”
Fortunately, at this moment, Mackenzie’s voice came from behind.
Behind her were Emmanuel and Rhea.
Emmanuel came with Mackenzie while Rhea, a nurse at the hospital, walked
behind them.
She envied Emmanuel and Mackenzie, their pair of lovebirds.
Her perspective was different from that of the Quillen family and other
outsiders. No matter how she looked at it, she thought Emmanuel and
Mackenzie were a perfect match. At least more compatible than she and
Emmanuel.
“No, wait, why do I have such strange thoughts?”

At that, Rhea blushed again.
“Mackenzie, you’re here!”
Alessandra didn’t notice the person behind Mackenzie; her attention was
solely on Mackenzie. Seeing her daughter-in-law, a faint trace of color
returned to her pale face.
“Yeah. Mom, are you feeling okay?” Mackenzie walked over and gently held
Alessandra’s hand, showing no signs of aversion toward the older woman.
“I’m fine, I’m fine, you don’t need to worry about me!” Alessandra held onto
her daughter-in-law’s hand tightly.

Roselynn stuck out her tongue beside them and muttered softly, “She acts all
sickly in front of her daughter and miraculously recovers when she sees her
daughter-in-law!”
Her words didn’t go unnoticed. Alessandra immediately glared at her and
said, “Go away! I asked you to talk earlier, and you remained silent. Now,
you’re interrupting!”
Roselynn rolled her eyes, stood up, and offered the best seat to Mackenzie.
Mackenzie smiled slightly, feeling this family’s playful atmosphere was quite
nice. It would be wonderful if only the relationships within the Quillen family
could be as harmonious as this family.
“Mom, please don’t lecture Roselynn anymore,” Mackenzie said in defense of
Roselynn. “She didn’t want any of this to happen. Don’t worry. Roselynn is
young and beautiful. She will definitely find a better family to marry into!”
The same words, when spoken by Emmanuel and Roselynn, couldn’t have
consoled Alessandra as effectively. But when Mackenzie said it, Alessandra
nodded, and her mood visibly relaxed.
“If Roselynn doesn’t mind, I actually have a suitable candidate to introduce to
her,” Mackenzie said suddenly.
She had known that man for a while; he was a wealthy heir. She had never
considered being a matchmaker before, but Roselynn was her husband’s
sister after all.
“Really?” Alessandra’s face instantly lit up with surprise.
Emmanuel was also quite astonished, and he doubted if the woman before
him was the Ice Queen, not to mention she was going to introduce a man to
Roselynn!
Even Roselynn was pleasantly surprised and said with astonishment,
“Mackenzie, you’re really overestimating me. That man must be
extraordinary. I’m not in a position to aim that high!”
After experiencing a man like Jaxton, she developed a trauma for young heirs
from business families. She didn’t want to go through that again and was
even more reluctant to enter another business dynasty, with all its rules that
would stifle her.
