Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO
“You’re not going to admit it, huh?” Mackenzie looked at the dumbfounded Emmanuel and ruthlessly exposed his scheme. “First, you and Lexi conspired and planned this surprise without telling me! Second, the purchase time on the card clearly indicates that you purchased them this morning! Emmanuel, this is premeditated!”
Caught by his smart wife, he smiled awkwardly. Unexpectedly, she snorted coldly and commanded, “What are you standing there for? Won’t you open the car door for me?”
“Oh, right!” Emmanuel hurriedly went to open the rear door. However, Mackenzie furrowed her eyebrows. What a clueless man! Why didn’t he open the front passenger door? Does he not want me to sit beside him? While still fuming, she walked over to the Maserati and saw that the back seat had been transformed into a stunning, all–white special seat. The design was not only grand, but it also had a sense of purity!
Seeing her surprised expression, he felt a sense of accomplishment. After that, he scratched his head and smiled. “Mackenzie, do you like the exclusive seat specially made for you?”
Actually, the script prepared by Rhea wasn’t like this. It was more like, “Do you like the seat specially made for you, my queen? From now on, you’ll be the only queen in our household!”
Nevertheless, it struck him as too cheesy, and if he said a line like that, he wouldn’t be Emmanuel anymore. Despite the line losing half its impact, his wife still found this naturally clueless man with a slightly romantic side endearing. It wasn’t cheesy, and it had a touch of authenticity.
“Did you come up with this?” Mackenzie didn’t immediately get in the car but stared at him and asked.
“Uh, no!” Emmanuel scratched his head again, this time laughing awkwardly. “A female friend taught me. I hope it doesn’t make you feel awkward.”
Just as I suspected! She didn’t know who his female friend was, but she had a sneaking suspicion it was Lexi. Just great! How dare she teach my man to do such cheesy things? Still, it feels quite nice!
“Considering your effort, I won’t offer any commentary now. Just don’t come up with so many tricks next time!” Mackenzie reprimanded Emmanuel and then climbed into the car, where she crossed her legs like a queen and rested her hands on the sides of the seat. Surprisingly, this seat is quite comfortable!
As clueless as he was, he had no idea about a woman’s contradictory nature. Moreover, he did not anticipate his wife would be pleased, as he believed she would not approve of his actions.
As Emmanuel escorted the beautiful CEO into the car, the security guard, as the only witness, finally closed his hanging jaw and exclaimed, “Wow, even a man who punches above his weight can succeed in pursuing a girl with this method?” He wondered if he should learn a thing or two and pursue Miss Beatrix from the Quillen family. While everyone liked the icy goddess, he preferred a lively and energetic beauty like Beatrix!
Although Mackenzie got into the car, she didn’t initiate any conversation with her husband throughout the journey. On the contrary, he drove without hastily bringing up any topics of conversation.
Soon after, they returned to the Yociam Residence. As Mackenzie entered the house and headed to the bedroom, Emmanuel gently grabbed her wrist.
“Mackenzie, I need to talk to you!” However, she gently shook off his hand, and when she looked back at him, her eyes radiated a cold and icy light.
What’s going on? It seems like she’s still angry!
“Emmanuel, Claudette’s life had been saved, right?” At this instant, Mackenzie didn’t want to listen to whatever Emmanuel had to say. She still had that anger inside her, and if he couldn’t appease her tonight, she would make him sleep outside in the cold!
