Chapter 156

Mackenzie remained unaware of the drama befalling her husband.

She was occupied with a routine meeting at the offices of Terence Group.

As usual, Beatrix secretly scrolled through her phone during the meeting, and

her gaze suddenly landed on a shocking headline.

“What are you doing, Beatrix Quillen?”

She felt Mackenzie’s razor–sharp gaze on her a second later.

Beatrix shuddered involuntarily, aware that her cousin was a fair and

fearsome boss who would chew anyone out for getting distracted in a

meeting.

She hastily rushed to Mackenzie’s side and whispered, “I’m not slacking,

Mackenzie! Look at this headline! Manuel’s being cyberbullied!”

“What?”

Mackenzie released a near–imperceptible sigh and swiped the phone from

Beatrix’s outstretched hand. Once she read the headline, she stood up and

declared curtly, “Meeting’s over. Dismissed!”

She strode out of the conference room, leaving behind a roomful of

bewildered management staff.
