Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 994
Alfred couldn’t help but lock eyes with Terence again, feeling a strong curiosity rising in his heart. Who exactly was this young
man?
Alfred had long known that Terence’s most remarkable trait was his insight. The Quillen family, as well as the people of
Yeringham, all believed that Emmanuel was a social climber who sought favor with Mackenzie, but it could very well be that
Mackenzie had attached herself to an extraordinary figure!
Based solely on his medical skills, they dared to conclude that Emmanuel’s worth was definitely not inferior to anyone in the
Quillen family!
After finishing Marilyn’s treatment, Emmanuel let out a sigh of relief and said to Terence, “Grandpa, don’t worry. Her physique is
strong, and she is not in any life-threatening danger now.”
“Great! That’s great!”
Terence’s expression showed a hint of excitement.
The events of tonight had dealt a heavy blow to his heart.
First, Alton died right in front of him, once again confirming his title as a harbinger of disaster. Every time he came back, there
would be no good news.
If a young woman like Marilyn were to die because of him as well, he would only feel more guilty!
Now that Alton was dead, he was certainly heartbroken, but with Marilyn saved, he finally got some mental relief.
Alton was a foreman, and with his death, the operation of the iron mine naturally came to a halt.
The next morning, Terence dealt with Alton’s affairs together with his two sons.
One of them was Oscar.
Emmanuel also stayed at the iron mine but did not get involved in Alton’s affairs. He just curiously took a stroll around and
discovered that the mine was huge. That being said, it had been mined for many years, so many places had already been
depleted.

Not only that, the mine was located in the mountains, and some areas were very dangerous and unsuitable for mining.
Behind the mine was an empty valley with a tranquil environment and morning mist, giving it a somewhat ethereal feel.
Emmanuel greedily took a breath of fresh air and instantly felt refreshed, all exhaustion leaving his body.
10:14 Fri, Nov 17
After taking a stroll and leaving the mine, Emmanuel noticed that this place was once again. surrounded by a large number of
people early in the morning.
But this time, it wasn’t the troublemaking thugs but the miners from the mine.
82%
Anchortown was relatively poor and backward, and there were not many companies that could provide employment. This iron
mine had been operating for decades and had always been the place with the
most workers in town.
Now that Alton had died, according to the law, the mining rights should be inherited by his son.
However, the mining rights were about to expire, and the mine had been continuously losing money due to poor management.
Alton had been using his own savings to pay the miners’ wages.
Now that Alton had passed away, and neither of his two sons wanted to inherit the mining rights, the miners were worried about
losing their jobs and their source of income. So, they had all come to Mr. Harrison, who was still at the mine, to petition him!
Faced with such a significant problem, Mr. Harrison was initially at a loss. After all, there weren’t many wealthy businessmen in
town. Luckily, Terence happened to return to invest in his hometown, so Mr. Harrison earnestly requested him to acquire the iron
mine in order to maintain the stability of
the town’s livelihood!
“Mr. Harrison, it’s not that I don’t want to help... Sigh! Anyway, I have to consider it carefully and can’t promise you for now!”
In response to Mr. Harrison’s request, Terence did not immediately agree because he also had his

hands tied!
This mine had been mined for so many years, and the prime investment period had long passed. The difficulty of further mining
would only increase, and the chances of losses were extremely high!
How could Terence, who had been in business for so many years, not consider this?
Although the Quillen family was wealthy and influential, with such a large investment and with a ninety percent chance of losing
everything, he could not disregard his family business for the sake of sentiment!
“Old Mr. Quillen, I understand your concerns, but please, think of a solution!”
Mr. Harrison was a good official who cared about the well-being of the town’s people. He bowed ninety degrees to Terence,
pleading.
“Harrison, you should stop bothering Old Mr. Quillen. Let him rest for a while first! He hasn’t slept for two days since yesterday,
and he is physically and mentally exhausted. I’m worried that he won’t be
able to handle it!”
It was Alfred who spoke up and sent Mr. Harrison away.
Afterward, Alfred quickly and quietly escorted Terence out of the mine and back to Crimson Banner for
dinner and rest.
Once they entered the hotel room, Alfred quickly persuaded Terence, “Old Mr. Quillen, take a rest for the night. Let’s leave
everything else for tomorrow!”
