Chapter 229

No, I can’t open the door! He could be up to something! Mackenzie was

hesitant until Emmanuel showed her the jewelry–golden jade phoenix.

instantly got her enchanted. When she opened the door and got her hands

on that jewelry, she asked in surprise, “You bought this?”

“Yeah.” Emmanuel nodded firmly.

“Like hell I’m going to buy your story!” Her response left him dumbfounded as

he didn’t think she’d talk to him like that.

“It’s true, Ms. Quillen. I did buy it for you!”

“You paid for it?”

“Yeah, I paid with your grandpa’s card. I already transferred three thousand

back to him after that, though. I must say it’s not cheap!” Emmanuel said

earnestly.

“Are you dumb or what?!” Mackenzie directly called him a fool.

Nevertheless, the man refused to admit it and questioned her, “What’s wrong,

Ms. Quillen? Why are you being so mean? This thing is worth twenty

thousand! I’m sure I didn’t get conned!”

“Oh, come on. You’re such a damn fool! You’re the most foolish person there

is in this world!” Mackenzie was rendered speechless. She could tell that the

item Emmanuel just showed her was a delicate masterpiece made by

Thomas, in which case it should have cost way more than three thousand.

Therefore, she couldn’t believe Emmanuel had bought that item with just

three thousand. Come on, does he think I’m a fool or something? That thing

should cost at least 30 million! However, she could tell the man must have

been fooled by her grandfather, judging from how serious he looked while

saying all that nonsense.

“Fine, fine! I’m dumb! Happy now?” Emmanuel directly admitted it and took

the pendant away from her. Just as Mackenzie thought the man had gotten

mad, he added seriously, “Ms. Quillen, I’d like to present you with this pendant

as a gesture of gratitude for the help you’ve given all this while. Now, I’d like to

put this on you for you because I believe it will look amazing on you! It’s a

perfect match for your character.”

Mackenzie shivered slightly upon hearing his declaration. Is he stupid? Why
