Mackenzie didn’t press him for answers. Even though she suspected that something had happened between Emmanuel and Ashton… She wasn’t about to assume that anything untoward had happened between them just because of a feeling.
“Maybe it’s because I assisted her in solving a case!” Emmanuel quickly explained.
He had helped her solve Claudette’s case by identifying Magnus as the killer and pointing out that Dustin was the poisoner.
That made it three times he had lent her a hand.
If that woman still dared to treat him as though he was an enemy, just like she did before, she would be nothing but an ungrateful b*tch!
Mackenzie nodded and didn’t ask any more questions.
Just as they were about to enter the community, they noticed a car parked at the entrance. The vehicle immediately struck them as rather familiar.
At that moment, the security guard approached them respectfully and said, “Ms. Quillen, Mr. Lowe, welcome back. Someone has been waiting for you over there for a long time!”
Emmanuel and Mackenzie immediately turned to look in the direction he pointed.
To their surprise, Ashton was the one waiting for them.
“Emmanuel, I need to discuss something with you!”
Ashton also caught sight of their car and didn’t hesitate to rush over.
Nonetheless, she soon noticed that Mackenzie was there. So, she was afraid that the other woman would refuse and take her time negotiating some terms before agreeing to her request.
Unexpectedly, Mackenzie simply said, “I see. Emmanuel, I’ll leave this to you. Remember to come back home early.”
“Alright then!”
Emmanuel knew right then that Mackenzie was passing on the matchmaking task to him.
Since his wife had already made the decision, he had no choice but to comply and get out of the car.
So, Mackenzie drove into the community by herself.
“What’s the matter?” Emmanuel asked.
“Since your wife has been benevolent enough to spare you, come with me. Let’s find a place to sit down and talk.”
Then, she promptly turned around and walked toward her Porsche.
Emmanuel shrugged as he thought in exasperation, This woman really is difficult to get along with. Alas, he had promised his mother that he would help his sister find a good partner. So, he had no choice but to follow her into the Porsche.

The two of them arrived at an upscale private club and found a relatively quiet booth to occupy.
The club was filled with many people, mostly affluent young individuals seeking entertainment.
The venue was spacious enough. Thus, each booth was far apart enough that the music and loud conversations from the dance floor would ensure that there would be a modicum amount of privacy for the booth occupants. As a result, they wouldn’t have to worry about others eavesdropping on their conversation.
“What do you want?” Emmanuel took the initiative to break the ice after they each had a drink.
“Somebody is looking for you, and they specifically asked me to arrange a meeting with you,” Ashton said after downing her cold beer.
“Oh, who is it?”
“A woman, incredibly beautiful! Absolutely stunning!”
“Why does she want to see me?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Emmanuel wasn’t impressed by her description.
“I don’t know either.”
“What is her name then?”
“Hattie Zelinksy is a friend I met in Zovince. She is also a talented woman.”
“Oh? What is her relationship with Magnus Zelinsky?” Emmanuel didn’t bother beating around the bush.
Ashton trembled slightly in the face of his piercing gaze. Sometimes, she couldn’t help but think that this man before her was as cunning as a fox. He was clearly intelligent. Yet, he always donned a mask, playing the part of the fool so well that everyone was deceived by his appearance!
If he lacked brains, how could he have possibly outsmarted Magnus multiple times?
It should be noted that Magnus’ deductions were unparalleled. Plus, he also had countless fighters working under him. The fact that Emmanuel could come out of Magnus’ schemes time and time again merely showed that he wasn’t an individual who just had brawn under their sleeves.
“She’s Magnus Zelinsky’s sister! Biological sibling, not cousins!”
Ashton didn’t bother attempting to hide the truth.

“She’s Magnus Zelinsky’s sister! Biological sibling, not cousins!”
Ashton didn’t bother attempting to hide the truth.
“In that case, I won’t see her.”
Emmanuel’s stance was clear. He and Magnus were sworn enemies, and there was no room for any form of compromise. Thus, it was unnecessary for him to meet Magnus’ sister, regardless of her intentions!
Besides, he had already long made the decision to clear this Earth of such filth the moment he had Magnus in his grasp!
Although Ashton had already anticipated his resolute response, she still sighed softly upon receiving his answer.
Frankly, she had a good relationship with Hattie. The other party was one of her few female friends. Plus, when she was in a relationship with and when she was together with Maxwell, her bond with Hattie only grew stronger.
Hattie probably sought Emmanuel out because she learned about his grudge against Magnus. There was also a high chance that she had been informed of Emmanuel’s abilities. Perhaps she was worried about her brother’s safety?
Ashton was well aware of the comings and goings within the Zelinsky family. Hattie and Magnus had a very deep bond. If something were to happen to her brother, she would definitely do something drastic in response.
The two fell into silence for a moment. As a result, the surrounding voices entered their ears.
Hey, have you heard? It seems Miss Mackenzie of the Quillen family has gotten married?”
