Love at the Wrong Table - Season 5 Episode 39

Mackenzie was quite satisfied that Emmanuel didn’t expose her, nor did he

insist that she couldn’t do household chores. Still, she coldly shouted at her

husband to stop him from cleaning up the floor. “Don’t move!”

Startled, the man froze in place before looking at his wife innocently.

“Tonight, the kitchen is mine! If you come to clean up the mess, wouldn’t it

prove I can’t do household chores?”

Her expression was extremely serious as she was determined to prove she

was a good wife who could handle the kitchen!

“Um…”

Emmanuel was stunned for a moment. Since she insists on not getting my

help, I have no choice but to comply, right?

In the end, he respected his wife’s wish and nodded, saying, “Alright. Be

careful, then!”

“What are you trying to say?!”

Feeling a little miffed, Mackenzie said, “Are you looking down on me? I told

you it was just an accident. I know how much dishwashing liquid to use. I’m

not that kind of clueless idiot!”

The man nodded repeatedly. “Y-Yeah, I know!”

After saying that, he quickly left the kitchen, afraid that she would start hitting

him if he stayed even for a moment longer.

However, after leaving the kitchen, he was still worried that his wife might

hurt herself, so he pretended to clean the living room while occasionally

peeking into the kitchen through the doorway.

Fortunately, although she wasn’t very efficient, she was still capable of

washing dishes!

While Mackenzie was still washing dishes, her phone rang.

“Emmanuel, could you help me check who it is?”

“Okay!”

Emmanuel quickly ran over and was stunned for a moment when he saw the

name ‘Felicity.’ Isn’t this my mother-in-law? Why did Mackenzie save her

mother’s number by her first name?

“Who is it?”.

His wife’s voice came again, and he only reacted then and answered, “It’s

Mother. I mean, your mother!”

This time, it was Mackenzie’s turn to be stunned. Her eyebrows furrowed

slightly as she wondered why Felicity was calling at this hour.

Before she could respond, Emmanuel had already taken her phone and

rushed into the kitchen.

Thus, she could only instruct, “My hands are full. So, after you answer the call,

put the phone by my ear.”

“Alright.

After doing as instructed, he realized this posture was a bit ambiguous. It was

as if he was hugging Mackenzie from behind.

The fragrance of her body and her hair entered his nostrils, making him feel a

tight and comfortable sensation in his body.

“Hello, Felicity. Is there something you need?”

On the other hand, Mackenzie was unaware of their current ambiguous

position and instinctively leaned toward her husband so that she could hear

the call better.

He felt her buttocks press against his crotch. He wanted to retreat, but it was

inappropriate to do so, so he could only blush and stay still.

The fact that his wife had just addressed her mother by her first name also

shocked him. It seemed to him that the relationship between these two was

icy-cold. Is it normal for wealthy families to be so distant from each other?

“Mackenzie, did you bring Emmanuel back to Yeringham?” On the other end

of the line, Felicity was unaware of the situation and asked directly with a

calm tone.

“Yeah,” Mackenzie responded nonchalantly.

“How about you listen to my advice and reconsider? He can never help you in

your career-

“Shut it!” Mackenzie hurriedly interrupted Felicity. How could this woman

speak so recklessly? What if Emmanuel heard it?

In fact, Emmanuel had already heard it, and he truly felt uncomfortable in his

heart.

He was well aware that he was not worthy of her. If he had known

Mackenzie’s identity earlier, he wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage.

However, after going through so many ups and downs with her, he couldn’t

just leave her now!
