Love At The Wrong Table

Mackenzie had thrown out a ridiculous counteroffer to test Eve. There was no way she could be happy with the outcome of that test as it proved that her husband was really concealing his true identity!

“No need to thank me. We’re only doing business! If you’re interested, the Wolf Warrior Society would be willing to provide you with security solutions as well. The price is negotiable,” Eve replied.

Her sole purpose was to assist Emmanuel in completing the triple-S class mission of eliminating Teddy and avenging the fallen Wolf Warriors. What she was doing should be considered using Mackenzie and the Quillen family instead of genuinely helping Mackenzie.

Thus, even if Mackenzie did not pay the Wolf Warrior Society, they would still vow to protect anyone and anything that belonged to the Quillen family.

“Sure. Since you accepted my counteroffer for the place without hesitation, I won’t haggle with you. Just name your price,” Mackenzie confidently said. It showed that she did not only have great business acumen but also great social skills.

“It’s a real pleasure to work with you, Mrs. Lowe. We, the Wolf Warrior Society, pledge to guard this base with our lives. If there are any problems, you can hold me accountable. As for the price, how about one billion a year?”

Eve did not demand a high price as she also wanted to test Mackenzie.

“Agreed!” Mackenzie readily accepted the offer, surprising Eve Thompson.

“Mrs. Lowe, do you trust us that much?”

“You’re mistaken, Miss Thompson. I have no faith in you at all.”-

Mackenzie gently slid her hand around Emmanuel’s arm and continued, “I trust my husband. I trust anyone whom he trusts!”

Huh? Eve was taken aback by the sudden display of affection. She nearly froze in shock. It took a while before she reacted by bursting into laughter.

Emmanuel was also surprised. He awkwardly scratched the back of his head as the fear that Eve would tease and mock him for this flashed across his mind.
