Love at the Wrong Table - Season 4 Episode 57

It may not be as bad as it sounds, but that doesn’t mean it’s good news.”

Terence heaved a heavy sigh and walked away with his hands behind his

back. Soon after, Alfred followed closely behind him with his head bowed.

As they turned back to the living room, they saw Felicity approaching from

the opposite direction. Alfred noticed she was heading toward Mackenzie’s

room and said nothing to stop her.

In the meantime, she knocked on her daughter’s bedroom door, and after

receiving no response, she gently nudged it open. Sigh! Even now, she tends

to leave her doors unlocked. Then, she walked in and closed the door behind

her but couldn’t see her daughter in the room. Where could she be hiding in

this over 1000 square foot space with several other rooms?

“Get out!”

At this instant, Felicity was startled to hear Mackenzie’s voice shouting from

the en–suite bathroom. Clearly, Mackenzie had heard someone enter her

room, and although she did not know who it was, she knew it was not

Terence.

However, Felicity did not leave but sighed as she slowly approached the

bathroom door. “I’ve always told you that women should never feel love for

men, or the consequences would be dire. All men are the same because

they’re dirty, disgusting devils. Why wouldn’t you believe me?” As soon as she

finished speaking, silence descended upon the room. At that moment, she

realized her words had swayed Mackenzie. While she rarely listens to me, she

has always been receptive to this philosophy. Why else would my daughter

end up with misandry as serious as mine? “As women, we can only protect

ourselves by being heartless. That is the only way we can be stronger. That is

the only way we can make sure we have no weaknesses! Forget everything

that has happened in the past two months and just picture it all as a

nightmare.” She continued to preach.

After receiving no response from her daughter, she knew she had

accomplished her goal. Since the beginning, I have never supported

Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s decision to get married. How could such a man

be worthy of my daughter? Also, my daughter’s marriage to such a man

would only lead to our family’s fall from grace, which I will never allow. Sadly, I

3/4

am powerless to do anything while Terence is still around, and this family

only listens to him. In addition, I will have to wait for a rift in the marriage

before convincing my daughter to leave Emmanuel. I have always believed

that if two people come from vastly different backgrounds, they will never be

able to successfully navigate the challenges of a committed relationship. I’m

determined to prove to Terence that he’s wasting his time. It appears that my

speculations have come to fruition. At this thought, she proposed, “I’ll contact

one of the well–bred young men from Zovince in a few days. He will surely be

better than-”

“Shut up!” Mackenzie had finally spoken, interrupting Felicity with a frosty and

impatient roar. “Get out!” They clearly did not have a normal

mother–daughter relationship, as evidenced by her lack of restraint and loud

outbursts.

Very well. Still, I may be the only one who truly wants the best for you. Think

about it.” Felicity did not rush to try and sway her daughter’s decision as she

turned and left the room.

Once the silence had returned to the room, Mackenzie, sitting naked in the

tub, raised her head and let the hot water run down her delicate body. Her

eyes were tightly closed as she held the position until she felt out of breath,

her bosom rapidly rising and falling.
