Love at the Wrong Table Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 303
Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 303
As a gynecologist, a womanâs body was, well, just another body to
Emmanuel, but it didnât mean that he wouldnât be embarrassed when a
woman ogled his body.
âSâSorry!â Claudette quickly looked away, her cheeks blushing and her heart
racing. She longed to take another glance at him.
Shoot! Iâm one of those lecherous women!
Claudetteâs cheeks grew hotter and hotter. In the past, she didnât understand
why some women could get infatuated and call every handsome man
âhusbandâ. They would scream at the sight of a muscular body, but now she
realized that when she genuinely liked a man, the feeling of her heart racing
was so intense that she couldnât control it at all!
With that, she snuck another peek through the gaps in the bushes.
Emmanuel paid no attention to her. The current situation called for drying
their clothes and themselves first, then figuring out how to survive. After all,
no one knew how long they would be trapped in this valley.
After a while, when he put his clothes back on, he turned around and
surprisingly found that Claudette had also taken off all her clothes to dry by
the fire.
Her smooth and porcelainâlike skin that was illuminated by the flames
appeared to be twinkling. It was truly captivating!
The sudden visual impact turned Emmanuel on.
She was the second woman, after Mackenzie, who could evoke such a
sensation in him.
Claudette caught him looking just as he was about to look away. Their eyes
met, and the atmosphere became slightly awkward. However, in the next
moment, Claudette narrowed her eyes and smiled. âDo I look good, Dr. Lowe?â
âUmmâ¦â For once, Emmanuel was nervous. Still, he nodded. âYou look very
good!â
âThank you!â she replied graciously, over the moon.
âUm, youâre welcome.â Emmanuel turned around at once, trying his best to
remain natural. âYou go ahead and dry yourself and your clothes, Ms. Lenoir.
Iâll see if I can find something to eat!â
âSureâ¦âClaudette nodded bashfully as a smile gradually appeared on her
face.
Neither of them had any communication devices, and they had drifted quite
a distance along the river.
The valley below was desolate and uninhabited. They had to find a way to
survive first before they could wait for rescue. Otherwise, it would be difficult
for them to make it through.
Emmanuel took a few steps, then suddenly stopped and said, âBy the way,
Ms. Lenoir, you should put on your clothes as soon as possible. Iâm afraid
there might be other people or wild animals around hereâ¦â
Claudette paused for a moment, then her heart blossomed with joy. Is he
jealous?!
âAlright!â
âWell, Iâll look for food nearby. Call out if you need anything.â
âOkay, I got it!â
Claudette was very obedient. Emmanuel would have likely had a hard time
saying no to her, let alone any other man.
That said, he was well aware of his status as a married man. He wouldnât
entertain any other thoughts about women.
Night gradually fell, and Roselynn was still anxiously waiting for news of the
rescue on the cliff.
In contrast to her anxiety, Hubert could hardly contain his excitement. The
longer they waited without news, the higher the probability of Emmanuelâs
death!

âGautier, good news!â Hubert couldnât help giving his brother another call.
âEmmanuel has likely fallen off the cliff and died! But Mackenzie didnât bungee
jump with him. Sheâs still alive. This is my chance!â
âIs that so? Itâs up to you then!â Gautier ended the call in just a few words. His
gaze gradually turned cold and there was a hint of disappointment in them.
The Quillen family had just snatched 150 million in profits from their family. As
the heir of Verkade Group, Gautier certainly wanted to eliminate his enemy,
Emmanuel. But more than that, he longed for Mackenzie to die alongside
him!
âOnce Mackenzie dies, the Quillen family will no longer be a threat!â Gautier
said to himself with gnashed teeth.
