Chapter 10 Emmanuel Has a Wife

“What should we do? My mom might die if she delays

getting the surgery!” Frederick finally broke down and

started sobbing in front of Emmanuel.

10/21

Emmanuel let out a sigh and said, “Please don’t cry. Let

me try asking my wife. I’m sure she will lend it to you!”

In reality, Emmanuel was not sure if Mackenzie would

agree to help.

However, both of them had run out of ideas.

With their social status, it wouldn’t be easy for them to

borrow three hundred thousand in such a short period of time.

“Your wife?” Frederick was so shocked that his tears stopped at once. “Emmanuel, have you gone crazy as well? Since when did you have a wife?”

Not knowing how to explain the situation, Emmanuel merely smiled helplessly before calling Mackenzie.

After the previous day’s incident, Emmanuel had

memorized Mackenzie’s number in case she blocked

him on WhatsApp again.

“Hello. What’s up?”

Emmanuel was relieved that the woman had picked

up his call. Besides, from the clear tone and steady

pace of her voice, it did not seem like she was in a

meeting or in a rush.

“Ms. Quillen, I would like to borrow some money from

you,” Emmanuel stated the purpose of his call directly

without beating around the bush.

Ms. Quillen? Frederick was stunned. Is she really his

wife? Why would he be addressing his wife that way?

“Borrow money?”

Mackenzie froze at Emmanuel’s words. After returning

to her senses a moment later, an amused smirk crept

across her face.

Before receiving Emmanuel’s call, she was having

doubts after what happened the night before, thinking

that the man might not have married her for her
