Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 56

No matter what, I’ll have to confront her tonight and

get a confirmation.

Having made up his mind, Emmanuel went home after

getting off work and waited for Mackenzie’s return

anxiously.

To his frustration, Mackenzie came home later than

usual, not arriving until half past ten.

“Ms. Quillen, you came home later than usual today,

huh?” Emmanuel broke the silence.

Mackenzie was busy. She gave her husband a grunt

instead of a verbal response. Obviously, she was going

to grab her pajamas, take a shower, and go to bed.

Emmanuel knew she would sleep at eleven sharp, so

he stood in front of her, blocking her path.

“What is it?” Mackenzie frowned.

“Ms. Quillen, you promised to pay my family a visit, so

my mom has gone out of her way to make all the

necessary arrangements, even inviting our relatives. If

you were to suddenly change your mind and not

come, I wouldn’t be able to explain it to her.”

After a pause, he added, “If you don’t keep your word,

I’ll have no choice but to let your grandpa know.”

Mackenzie scoffed in disdain.

Everyone knows I hate being threatened. I can’t believe

he’s so bold to threaten me!
