Chapter 912 He Is Absolutely Trustworthy

By the end of dinner, Terence had had quite a bit to drink and, in a tipsy state, invited Emmanuel to stay

the night at the Quillen residence.

“Emmanuel, we’ve had such a great time today. You and Mackenzie don’t need to go back to your little

home tonight, right? We have plenty of empty rooms here!”

Naturally, Sophie and Hannah were the most uncomfortable about the invitation. Of course, the other

Quillen women shared their sentiments. They held a similar view: Emmanuel was acceptable as

Mackenzie’s personal bodyguard, but as her husband, he couldn’t provide any support to her in the

business world.

In other words, he wasn’t worthy!

Felicity, on the other hand, had somewhat changed her attitude. She had seen through the Quillen

family’s distrust of outsiders. If Emmanuel stayed at the Quillen residence, she would no longer be the

only outsider there, and she could build a relationship with him to strengthen her ties with Mackenzie.

“Is it inconvenient, perhaps?” Emmanuel didn’t want to directly refuse Terence’s kindness, so he left the

decision to Mackenzie. “Besides, Mackenzie has to return to the company tomorrow. It might be more

convenient to stay in Yociam-”

Before he could finish his sentence, Mackenzie calmly said, “It’s alright. We can stay over tonight.”

“Um…” Emmanuel was a bit stunned.

“Haha, in that case, you can spend the night in Mackenzie…” Terence interjected playfully, and when

Emmanuel was slightly taken aback, the cunning old man finished his sentence, saying, “Mackenzie’s

room!”

Childish!

Emmanuel was left feeling slightly awkward. “Are you sure it’s okay?”

Despite having lived under the same roof as Mackenzie for several months, they had never shared a

room. With so many rooms in the Quillen residence and so many people around, how could he possibly

sleep in the same room as Mackenzie?! Mackenzie certainly wouldn’t agree to it!

Unexpectedly, the young woman monotoned, “There’s nothing wrong with it. If you want to, go ahead.”

“But…” Emmanuel shivered suddenly. What has come over her today?

Beatrix was equally surprised and quickly covered her mouth, afraid to make a sound. Is Mackenzie

evolving again? She is actually allowing a man into her room and sharing a bed with her!

“Mackenzie, you can’t do this!” Hannah, who was about to leave the Quillen residence, quickly stepped

forward to dissuade her

Samantha also stood by her side this time.

After the clarification between Emmanuel and Terence the last time, they were convinced that

Mackenzie hadn’t given herself to this man yet. After experiencing the recent turmoil in the business

world, they remained committed to finding Mackenzie a man of the same social status. They believed

that Emmanuel would eventually have to find his own way out.

Mackenzie, however, remained expressionless as she said, “There’s nothing wrong with it. He is my

legal husband.”

With that, she walked toward her room.

The remaining people were left a bit stunned. They all noticed that Mackenzie was acting unusually

that day. What happened to her?

“Haha, go sleep with Mackenzie tonight, Emmanuel!” Terence, who was the most delighted, gave

Emmanuel a push and staggered his way back to his own room.

Alfred quickly came over to support him.

The other Quillen women were filled with words they couldn’t express, but they couldn’t stop this from

happening. All they could do was stare in disbelief.

“Old Mr. Quillen, how do you view Emmanuel?” Alfred, having helped Terence to his room, couldn’t

help but ask.

He rarely asked Terence for his opinions on matters, but considering the significant events that had just

transpired, he had observed Emmanuel closely and felt the need to discuss this young man with

someone.

“Haha, I absolutely have a favorable opinion of him; otherwise, I wouldn’t insist on giving him my

granddaughter! His character is absolutely trustworthy!” Terence laughed heartily.
