Chapter 499
Mackenzie had a complicated look on her face. “Are you confident about it,
then?”
Emmanuel shook his head. “I’m afraid I can’t do it with my medical skills, but
my Master probably can!”
“Oh? So, you have a Master?” replied Mackenzie without thinking, but her eyes
weren’t looking at him. She didn’t know what her feelings were at this
moment. She knew that Claudette had only ended up like this in order to
save her and Emmanuel, for which she would always be in her debt. That
being said, Claudette was her number one love rival, after all, not to mention
that this woman had died to save them. If she really were to come back to
life, she would only mean more to Emmanuel than before. If Claudette wants
to continue chasing after Emmanuel after that, what am I supposed to do
about this savior of mine?

bring Claudette back to life!” replied Emmanuel excitedly; he seemed
brimming with confidence. Just when he feared that Mackenzie would ask
him who his Master was, she merely replied, “Oh,” and walked out of the room
with a heavy heart.
He knitted his brows. What’s wrong with Mackenzie? Does she not want me to
save Claudette? No, that won’t be the case! He understood Mackenzie’s
character and knew that she was a warmhearted woman beneath her cool
exterior. Claudette had died in order to save her, so how could she possibly
not want him to bring her back to life?
They never spoke again that night. Thinking that Mackenzie was angry about
Sarah’s visit, Emmanuel didn’t try to talk to her when he saw that she was
busy with work.
The next morning, he drove her to work as usual.
Before getting out of the car, Mackenzie finally broke the silence between
them. “Pick me up this evening. We’re going back to my home.”
“Going back to your home?” Emmanuel didn’t pick up on what she meant for
a moment. Don’t we go back to your home every single day?
Luckily, Mackenzie was clever enough to see at a glance that this dunce
wasn’t on the right track. She quickly added, “I mean, we’re going back to the
Quillen residence. It’s my mom who asked for that!”
Emmanuel replied, “Oh, okay!” All of a sudden, he felt a sense of pressure. This
was his first time going back with Mackenzie to her parents‘ home! A wealthy
and powerful family like that must have a lot of people, no? Most importantly,
this was requested by Felicity herself. He wondered what his mother–in–law’s
intention was.
After Mackenzie went to work, Emmanuel instantly phoned Eve, asking her to
call Kolton to find out where Santiago was right now.
Eve agreed to do so, saying that she would let him know as soon as she
heard of anything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt 5.00PM, Emmanuel started waiting downstairs outside the Terence Group
headquarters for Mackenzie to get off work. He was feeling slightly nervous.
Mackenzie left work on time at 6.00PM. After getting into Emmanuel’s car, she
immediately ordered, “Let’s go!”
Taking a short breath, Emmanuel replied, “Okay. Which way do we go now?”
“I’ll send you the location. Just follow the GPS directions,” replied Mackenzie
before looking at him with her attractive eyes. She asked, “You’re nervous?”
Emmanuel nodded with a slightly wry smile. He felt like back when he had
entered the battlefield for the first time. He had entered the battlefield a
million times, but as it turned out, he would nonetheless feel nervous when
going back with his wife to her parents‘ house for the first time!
“Relax!” replied Mackenzie assertively. “You’re my husband. I won’t let anyone
give you a hard time!”
Emmanuel was amused. “Why does it feel like I’m the wife here, while you’re
the husband?” He let out an inward sigh. With such a self–assertive wife, it’s
no wonder why some people think I’m a toy boy.
