Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 482
Two days later, Emmanuel walked out of the police station again.
This time, Alessandra and Roselynn were waiting for him.
Jaxton was also there, but Roselynn ignored him. It seemed like he had
voluntarily followed her, and the two of them were still giving each other the
cold shoulder, locked in a silent battle.
âManny, are you okay?â Alessandra and Roselynn hurried toward Emmanuel,
their faces filled with concern as soon as they caught sight of him stepping
out.
âMom, Rosie, Iâm fine!â Emmanuel smiled slightly.
The very next moment, Jaxton approached with an overly cheerful
expression, playing the role of the perfect brotherâinâlaw. He leaned against
Emmanuel and placed a hand on his shoulder as he commented, âGreat to
see youâre all right! Come on. Iâll give you a ride home!â
âWho asked you to give us a ride? And who are you, anyway?â Roselynn
9T1
interjected out of the blue, causing Jaxtonâs smile to freeze and leaving him
scratching his head awkwardly.
Fortunately, Alessandra stepped in to defuse the situation. She didnât want
any tensions arising in her childrenâs marriages, so she swiftly intervened by
saying, âRoselynn, Jaxton didnât mean any harm the last time. Donât hold onto
grudges like that! Look, he still cares about our family!â
âThatâs right!â Jaxton immediately chimed in, eager to salvage the situation.
âRoselynn, weâre all family. If thereâs any issue, letâs discuss it at home. Iâm
prepared to apologize and fulfill any request you make, but letâs not make a
scene right outside the police station, hmm?â
However, Roselynn wasnât swayed by his attempts.
She saw through his true intentions. He was nothing more than an
opportunist, constantly adapting to the circumstances. When he learned of
Emmanuel divorcing the young lady of the Quillen family, he wanted to
trample on her family. Now that Emmanuel and Mackenzie had reconciled
and gained the full support of the Quillens, he undoubtedly sought to curry
favor with them.
Emmanuel brushed off Jaxtonâs hand and sternly demanded, âI can let Rosie
handle the issues between both of you, but you owe my mom an apology for
knocking her down!â
Jaxton sensed the determination in Emmanuelâs eyes and instantly felt a
twinge of intimidation. How am I supposed to endure the overwhelming
sense of danger emanating from someone who is not only Ms. Quillenâs
husband but also a person with a dark history of ruthless acts and even
murder?
âHaha! Manny, youâre right!â Jaxton exclaimed, swiftly bowing and apologizing
to Alessandra. âMom, I truly didnât mean it last time. Please forgive me! You
can even hit me to vent your anger!â
Alessandra, being the kindâhearted person she was, would not lay a hand on
anyone. She quickly helped him up and replied, âAlright, alright. I know it was
an unintentional mistake on your part.â
With that, she shifted her attention to Emmanuel and Roselynn, suggesting,
âAre things resolved now? Letâs go home and talk things through.â
Still standing with her arms crossed, Roselynn emitted a disdainful snort.
âMom, itâs your choice to forgive him, but Iâm not getting in his car!â
Jaxton immediately grew anxious. âRoselynn, if you donât get in my car, are
you planning to take a cab home? Please stop causing a scene, okay?â
Just as he finished speaking, a Maserati pulled up at the scene.
Emmanuel was slightly taken aback, thinking his wife was coming to pick him
despite both cars being a Maserati.
âEmmanuel, Mackenzie is still in a meeting at the company, so Iâve come to
pick you up on her behalf.â A voice resonated from the rolledâdown car
window. It was Sarah.
While she might not have possessed the same striking beauty as Mackenzie,
Sarah, being a young lady from a distinguished family, held her own charm.
Her fair complexion and graceful demeanor undeniably added to her allure.
Jaxton was taken aback for a moment, his face slightly reddening.
He had just thought that Roselynnâs family didnât have a ride, but here came
a Maserati!
However, Jaxton, who was shameless as ever, immediately donned a
charming smile and approached Sarah, trying to establish a closer
connection. âSo, youâre Mannyâs sisterâinâlaw, right? Iâm his brotherâinâlaw,
Jaxton Oatley. Itâs my pleasure to meet you!â
With those words, he extended his hand toward Sarah, hoping for a
handshake.
At the sight of such a scene, Roselynn felt a surge of disgust. From this small
interaction alone, she could discern that her husband was not only an
opportunist but also a lecher.
This marriage was undoubtedly destined for divorce.
âHello! Iâm Sarah Quillen.â
