Chapter 435
Mackenzie had always boasted in front of her by saying that Emmanuel
cooked delicious food. Beatrix also wanted to know what it feels like to be
pampered by a househusband while getting plump and chubby.
However, who would have thought that reality could be so cruel? Mackenzie
couldn’t even fulfill Beatrix’s small wish. Mackenzie asked Emmanuel to cook a
feast but sent her home. She was really heartless!
Terence still didn’t comfort her. He even demanded that she tell him more
about Emmanuel and Mackenzie’s relationship and how they reunite. Did
their feelings for each other deepen? Did they have any plans to do what
couples usually did tonight?
Beatrix was already annoyed by their display of affection today, and now she
was being forced to recall the scenes. She really wanted to complain that
Terence was heartless!
“Grandpa, I’m not going to entertain you anymore! I’m going to find a
boyfriend tomorrow and snatch the spotlight from my sister!”
Then, she left in a huff.
If she really found a boyfriend, Terence would be happy about it. After all, no
matter who it was, as long as they could give him a great-grandchild, it
would be a good thing.
However, Terence also had his own ulterior motives. He had high hopes for
Mackenzie as she was talented, and since she was the eldest, he wanted her
to give birth to a great-grandchild first.
Not long after Beatrix left, Felicity slowly entered the hall. She looked at
Terence, who was still excited, and let out a sigh.
“Dad, there’s something I didn’t mention before, but now I must discuss it with
you.”
The smile on Terence’s face gradually faded after he heard Felicity’s voice.
Then, he put on a serious expression. “What’s the matter?”
She could see the change in his expression and felt even more pressure, but
for the sake of her daughter and herself, she had to speak up. “I really feel
that Emmanuel is not worthy of Mackenzie. I know you want to have a
great-grandchild, so why don’t you let me handle this?”
Originally, she was relieved when Mackenzie and Emmanuel got divorced
previously. No matter what had happened in the past, it was all in the past.
However, she didn’t expect Emmanuel, that shameless man, to come back,
and that Mackenzie would still have feelings for him. As a mother, she
couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.
Terence snorted coldly. “You don’t need to meddle in this matter. They’re fine
the way they are now!”
Felicity still refused to give up and reminded him, “Dad, don’t forget that
because of Claudette’s matter, General Lenoir already bears a grudge
against Emmanuel. If you insist on letting Mackenzie be with that man, it
might bring trouble to the Quillen family!”
“Why should we fear the Lenoir family?”
Terence’s anger began to rise. “I actually quite like Claudette. The fact that
she was willing to stand up for Emmanuel is a heroic and tear-jerking act.
Who is General Lenoir to blame Emmanuel for this? If he can’t distinguish right
from wrong, I’ll have to teach him a lesson!”
In Yeringham, only Terence had the qualifications and ability to say such
things.
However, Felicity persisted and sighed. “General Lenoir is my older brother, so
I know him best. Whatever he says, he will definitely do it. Besides that, two
young masters from prestigious families have expressed their interest in
Mackenzie. If she’s willing, they’re ready to marry her immediately. How about
“Who are they?”
Terence became curious. Who were the young masters who proposed to
Felicity? Didn’t they know that he, the head of the Quillen family, was the one
who had the final say?
“One is from a renowned family outside of Yeringham, and the other is the
young master of the Verkade family in Yeringham,” she replied calmly.
He couldn’t help but show a disdainful expression. “Hubert, that trash? How
can he be worthy of my granddaughter?”
Only then did Felicity continue speaking. “It’s not Hubert, but the eldest young
master of the Verkade family, the heir of the Verkade family, Gautier
Verkade!”
“What?”
Upon hearing this name, Terence was surprised.
Gautier had always been the Quillen family’s number-one business rival. Why
was he actively proposing a marriage alliance with the Quillen family? What
was the real motive behind this?
