Chapter 94

Emmanuel raised his arm and stepped away from Mackenzie.

Emmanuel laughed. “I remember you mentioning once that you wouldn’t

Mackenzie wheezed with rage. Her chest heaved rapidly. “As I said, this is a

matter of pride! I’m only worried about people finding out about your

indiscretions!”

Emmanuel turned to regard her. As the atmosphere had regained its

calm, he teased, “I see. But your actions earlier did make it look like you
