Chapter 156

Mackenzie remained unaware of the drama befalling her husband.

She was occupied with a routine meeting at the offices of Terence Group.

As usual, Beatrix secretly scrolled through her phone during the meeting, and

her gaze suddenly landed on a shocking headline.

Beatrix shuddered involuntarily, aware that her cousin was a fair and

fearsome boss who would chew anyone out for getting distracted in a

meeting.

Mackenzie! Look at this headline! Manuel’s being cyberbullied!”

“What?”

Mackenzie released a near–imperceptible sigh and swiped the phone from

declared curtly, “Meeting’s over. Dismissed!”

She strode out of the conference room, leaving behind a roomful of

bewildered management staff.
