Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO
The combination of black and white was seemingly simple. However, Mackenzie wore the outfit with the effect of top models. Along with her innate icy temperament, it secretly captivated the male bodyguards around her. This woman belonged only in heaven!
Mackenzie felt cold, so she wrapped a red scarf around her neck. That instantly brought a festive atmosphere to the first day of the new year!
“Grandpa, let’s go!” She walked over and wrapped another red scarf around Terence’s neck.
The old man dressed in a red suit perfectly matched with the festive scarf!
“Haha. Let’s go! Let’s wish our in–laws a happy new year!”
He was in a great mood today. Choosing Hero’s Village as the first stop for the new year’s greetings was marvelous to him! However, this magnificent procession of new year’s greetings frightened the surrounding villagers.
Is this a new year’s greeting or an invasion by the enemy? Many people secretly followed behind to watch, pointing and discussing among themselves. Who has such distinguished people as guests?
People in Hero’s Village had not seen such liveliness during the new year for many years since the younger generation kept migrating out!
Mackenzie was unfamiliar with the route, so she approached an elderly lady at the entrance and asked, “Excuse me, miss. Happy New Year! Can you tell me where the Lowe family lives?”
The way Mackenzie addressed her made her heart flutter with joy! She pointed toward the eastern part of the village and excitedly said, “The way to the Lowe family’s house is easy to find. Just keep walking straight until the end, and you’ll see a brick house directly facing the heroic stone statue!”
“Thank you.” She nodded and walked away. Terence felt that his granddaughter’s way of expressing gratitude was a bit cold, so he turned to the elderly woman and said, “Thank you, miss!” Then, he instructed someone to give her a generous reward.
However, the elderly lady insisted on declining the reward, and her happy and smiling expression instantly turned cold. This old man! How could he address me as ‘miss‘? I don’t want to be a ‘miss‘ to him!
It was lively since the Lowe family had returned to the countryside for the New Year after many years. More and more people were pressing Emmanuel for information about his wife. However, he did not know how to respond.
Even Alessandra knew nothing about Mackenzie, so how could he casually reveal details to these people?
At that moment, Howard appeared again with his wife and burst into laughter. “Emmanuel, did Frederick suddenly use you to brag and catch you off guard? You can’t back down now, right? Seriously, not having a wife is not a big deal! Why lie on the spot and stick to it?”
Everyone chimed in and agreed. So what if someone did not have a wife? At most, they might receive a few mocking remarks. However, lying was a matter of character and would make the village look down on you!
“I got married. Today, I planned to bring her back to the village to pay respects to our ancestors.” He had no choice but to continue saying so.
“Stop spouting nonsense!” Howard could not bear it any longer and angrily interrupted him. “I despise trash like you the most. You refuse to face reality.
You’re doomed for a lifetime” Before he could finish his sentence, someone outside suddenly exclaimed,
“Someone’s here for New Year’s greetings to the Lowe family!” The voice was filled with excitement, catching everyone inside off guard. Howard frowned in annoyance. What’s so surprising about New Year’s greetings? Why make such a fuss?
However, in the next moment, even his eyes widened! His gaze shifted to the entrance, and he saw a woman as delicate as the snow. The woman was not enthusiastic, but her vermilion lips curved with a charming smile as she said to the bewildered Alessandra, “Mom. Happy New Year! Grandpa and I are here to visit you.”
As soon as she spoke, the scene fell into a dead silence.
