“Hold it!”

The crowd blocked Emmanuel before he could enter the company building.

Hubert slowly approached from behind, his face filled with anger.

Isn’t he Mackenzie’s personal bodyguard? She even used him as a shield at

Azure Business Club. This guy has repeatedly ruined my plans. I’m not going

to let him off the hook today!

Just then, the captain of Terence Group’s security team, Ryan Brandson,

emerged with a group of security guards in tow.

They had grown tired of Hubert’s audacious pursuit of their revered CEO. If it

weren’t for his social status and connections, they would have eagerly taught

him a lesson he wouldn’t forget.

Much to their surprise, he had taken it to another level that night, turning the

business district into his personal romantic haven adorned with candles and

all.

This is outrageous! What if a fire were to break out? Even if there’s no fire

incident, it’s still wrong to burn the plants!

Fortunately, Emmanuel had taken the lead and extinguished the candles.

With the CEO’s orders, they could finally take action and teach him a lesson.

As the company’s security team came out in full force, Emmanuel held his

head high and pointed at Hubert and his group. “You bunch of thugs! How

dare you attempt arson at Terence Group. What gives you the nerves to

cause trouble?”

His accusations stunned Hubert and his comrades.

Arson at Terence Group? What a strong accusation! Does this guy want to

frame us for a crime?

Hubert and his men were fuming with anger, and their eyes burned with

frustration as they locked gazes.

Ryan and his security team yelled, “We are the company’s security guards,

and it’s our duty to put out fires!”

“If you don’t leave now, don’t blame us for being rough!” one of the security

guards shouted angrily.

Another chimed in, “Remember to clean up the place! If we see any mess,

we’ll ensure you come back and clean it up!”

Hubert clenched his teeth and shot Emmanuel a cold, piercing gaze. “Just

you wait!”

He then reluctantly led his defeated group away from the scene.

“Hey, don’t forget to pick up your candles!” Emmanuel called out.

Alas, his words fell on deaf ears as none of them bothered to turn around.

Emmanuel could only sigh helplessly. “He litters and lacks civic

consciousness. No woman would have a good life with someone like him.”

Pfft!

Beatrix had been observing the entire scene and discreetly recorded it all.

This was a battle between Mackenzie’s husband and his romantic rival.

Emmanuel emerged triumphant. She couldn’t wait to share the episode with

Mackenzie.

Little did Beatrix know that Mackenzie had been observing the entire scene

from upstairs. She couldn’t help but think that having a husband had its

advantages, especially when it came to chasing away unwanted suitors.

That evening, Emmanuel finally realized his grand plan of leaving work and

going home with his wife.

As they sat in the car, Emmanuel did not want to mention about the episode

involving Hubert. He decided to chat about a different topic. “Ms. Quillen,

tomorrow is Tommy’s sixth birthday. My cousin has invited us for a casual

dinner. Tommy really wants to meet you!”

It was no surprise that any man would want to meet Mackenzie. In fact, she

had grown accustomed to the requests.

While she had misandry, she didn’t harbor any dislike for children. However,

with a busy schedule and no holiday the next day, she had no intention of

making time for the event.

When Emmanuel noticed her silence, he swiftly interjected, “I’ve already told

my cousin that you’re swamped with work, so the likelihood of you being able

to make it is slim. I just wanted to mention the event to you. If you don’t feel

like going, it’s completely all right to decline.”
