Chapter 23

He was aware that his aunt and his cousin’s wife had a

tendency to clash with one another. It seemed that

every time they encountered one another, a heated

argument would ensue, and on rare occasions, it

would escalate to a physical altercation, leaving his

poor cousin trapped in the middle of it all.

her antics in the days ahead?

too busy,Emmanuel quickly explained.

No matter how furious he was, Mackenzie was still his

wife.
