Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 155

Emmanuel’s gaze grew determined, and he announced, “This matter is too

important; someone has to step up and resolve it. If we beat a retreat now,

those nasty netizens will be all over Mom! Anyway, I’m handling the issue, and

that’s final. I ain’t scared of any trouble!”

Roselynn voiced her concern, “How can we leave you to face all of that alone,

Manny?”

“Trust me, Roselynn! I’m the man of the house. I need to defend our

household in times of trouble!”

“F–Fine! I’ll get a new phone number and call you again!”

“All right,” Emmanuel said and ended the call.

His phone almost immediately rang with a phone call from Ryder afterward.

By then, only Frederick and Claudette remained by his side. Everyone else

had already left.

Emmanuel dismissed his best friend, “You should head back to work,

Frederick.”

“Okay. Just let me know how I can help, Emmanuel. I’ll do my best to help you.

That’s what best friends are for!”
