Love At The Wrong Table

Hannah’s gaze at Emmanuel was even one of contempt. She couldn’t believe how a smart woman like her niece, Mackenzie, could have fallen for someone like him who was potentially deceiving her emotionally.

“Alright, 100 billion!” Emmanuel raised a finger intentionally.

“What?!” A seemingly pleased Hannah jumped to her feet, glaring at Emmanuel. “Are you out of your mind?”

“Isn’t it you who said I could name my price?” Emmanuel wasn’t going to be courteous to someone who had insulted him. He replied earnestly, “In this world, we operate on the principle of equivalent exchange. To me, Mackenzie is worth more than a trillion. However, as you’re her aunt, I’m offering you a discounted price. If you can’t afford it, please refrain from speaking such words in the future.”

“You b*stard!” Hannah couldn’t contain her anger any longer; upbringing couldn’t always control a person’s emotions.

Emmanuel, on the other hand, remained calm and said, “We both know who’s the real b*stard here! Ms. Hannah, you’re a highly educated woman. I believe you understand the saying, ‘Better to bend than to break.’ Mackenzie and I are harmonious and respectful to each other. We’ve already passed the adjustment period. Ms. Hannah, why are you making things difficult for us?”

“Huh!” Hannah couldn’t hold back a scornful laugh as she looked down at Emmanuel. “You dare to say such you have no shame?”
