Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Chapter 24

“Roselynn, what are you doing? It hurts!”

When Roselynn stepped out after changing, she was

shocked to discover that her brother had a band–aid

on his body and a bandage on his back. She couldn’t

help but impulsively reach out and give him a slap on

the shoulder.

Emmanuel was a living, breathing human being, and it

Not wanting his family to worry, Emmanuel lied, “Don’t

worry, Mom. I accidentally fell down, that’s all.”

“Fell down? This is a lie. You obviously got hurt. Did

someone hit you or throw something at you?”

Roselynn snapped. Her voice grew increasingly

agitated as she demanded, “Manny, be honest with
