Chapter 1029

Terence had no idea what was on Marilyn’s mind. He simply instructed Shane wearily, “Since you are

willing to take care of her, stay in town and help her with the arrangements for her grandmother and

sister.”

“Sure, Old Mr. Quillen!” Shane nodded.

But Marilyn asked nervously, “Old Mr. Quillen, don’t you want me anymore? Didn’t you promise to take

me away from this place?”

Looking at her anxious eyes, Terence finally said, “Once you have settled things here, you can leave

without any worries!”

Then, he turned to Mackenzie and instructed, “Mackenzie, give them some money.”

“Okay!” Mackenzie nodded.

Shane didn’t refuse, but it was Marilyn who got excited and said, “Old Mr. Quillen, I don’t want your

money! I just want to be with you, listen to your teachings, and let you show me a bigger world! I want

to broaden my horizons!”

Terence chuckled and said, “I told you. You can only explore this world after you have settled your

matters!”

Seeing how special Terence was treating Marilyn, Mackenzie couldn’t help but worry. Could it be that

this girl has grand ambitions and wants to take Grandma’s place? This is absurd! She’s much younger

than me. But in the end, Mackenzie didn’t say anything.

“Mackenzie, Shane is my junior. I’ll take care of the money issue for him,” Emmanuel spoke up to

shoulder the responsibility.

“Well, alright then!”

Mackenzie didn’t like to dwell on things. After settling the situation here, she and Emmanuel had other

more important matters to deal with.

Two days later, Mackenzie accompanied Emmanuel and returned to Hero’s Village once again. Many

people from the village came to attend the funeral, knowing that Queenie had passed away.

Alessandra and Roselynn also returned, and Mackenzie gave Alessandra some money and asked her

to represent the Lowe family and express their condolences to Queenie’s family. Even Frederick took a

special leave from the city to come back.

Queenie would be buried on the hillside next to the fields so that her soul could always enjoy the view

of Hero’s Village.

“Old Godfather is here!” someone called out just as Queenie was about to be buried.

Everyone looked up the mountain and saw Yosef and a girl pushing Old Godfather’s wheelchair up the

hill as everyone in the crowd paid their respects to Old Godfather.

Only Mackenzie had the time to curiously observe the girl, who had a beautiful appearance and a

serene aura like a tranquil lake.

“Who is she?” Mackenzie curiously asked Emmanuel beside her.

Emmanuel was also quite surprised that Mackenzie was curious about someone else. It seemed that

she was becoming more willing to integrate into his world.

“Susie Harper. Yosef’s sister and she’s 10 years younger than him,” whispered Emmanuel.

Mackenzie nodded. She had heard Emmanuel mention before that Yosef was one year older than him,

which meant that Susie was only twenty years old this year. When Emmanuel left the village, she

should still have been a baby.

Hmm. This woman probably has nothing to do with my husband. Mackenzie didn’t know when she

became so sensitive, but she realized that Emmanuel was just as popular with women as she was with

men!

He was an emotionally dense man, so he wouldn’t be too sensitive about love rivals. But she was a

woman!

After watching one woman after another bumping into her husband and even two women dying for her

husband, how could Mackenzie not be sensitive? She wouldn’t be sensitive unless she didn’t like

Emmanuel!

“Emmanuel, please tell me honestly. How did Queenie die?” Yosef and Old Godfather entered the

scene and directly questioned Emmanuel.

Everyone also looked at Emmanuel, including Howard and his parents.

In fact, before Emmanuel returned Queenie’s body, the Yeringham police had already informed them

that Queenie died under the punch of a man named Blake Dotson. But they still wanted to know more

details!

“She…” Yosef’s question came too suddenly and directly, so Emmanuel hesitated for a moment before

answering honestly, “Someone wanted to kill me. When I redirected the opponent’s punch, Queenie

blocked it with her body and was fatally hit.”
