Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO - Season 2 Episode 10

He came to an abrupt stop and felt a surge of tension as he read the texts

he had received.

One text read: Manny, what on earth is Milani doing? She just posted on

her Instagram, openly confessing her feelings for you and stating that

you’re her future boyfriend! If your wife sees this, you won’t be able to

explain yourself!

Another read: Emmanuel, you’re amazing! This is the first time I see a

woman openly pursuing a man. Doesn’t Milani know that you’re married?

Another text went: Emmanuel, you sly dog! I can’t believe you’ve been

keeping this a secret. You told me you’ve never been in a relationship

before, and now a beautiful woman has publicly declared her love for you!

His friend also texted him: My friend, you’re good at flirting, huh? Can you

teach me? I’m willing to pay for your time!

Emmanuel’s mind went blank. He had no time to reply to all the texts as he

quickly clicked on Instagram.

Previously, he had followed Milani’s Instagram due to work purposes.

Indeed, he saw a post dedicated to him in her profile.

She’s crazy! Is she out of her mind? If this situation spirals out of control

and Mackenzie finds out, I won’t be able to explain myself!

Right then, another new post was uploaded.

Emmanuel refreshed the page and felt his energy drain out of him. He

leaned against the wall weakly..

The caption read: Emmanuel, I have fallen head over heels for you! Destiny

brought us together on that blind date, and now we got to know each

other better through work. I truly believe that we are meant to be a loving couple in real life very soon! Emmanuel, you are mine, and I will go to great lengths to win your heart and make you mine! To all my Instagram friends,

1 kindly ask for your support in this endeavor. And when I succeed, I

promise to deliver sweet treats to each and every one of you!

Accompanying the post was a series of photos showcasing their

moments together, from their blind date to their interactions at work. To

those unaware of the situation, it would be easy to a*sume that they were

intimately connected and romantically linked to one another.

Claudette’s phone call arrived almost immediately.

“Dr. Lowe, what is going on? Roselynn told me that a lady named Milani

Zimmerman is professing her love to you. You’re quite the lady killer, huh?”

Claudette teased, but it was obvious that she held a grudge over the

matter.

Emmanuel was speechless, not knowing how to respond to her.

I said nothing nor did anything. Why did I become famous suddenly?

“Dr. Lowe, is Ms. Zimmerman the girlfriend you mentioned previously?”

Claudette asked.

Clearly, that was the reason she had made the call in haste.

If Emmanuel admitted that Milani was his girlfriend, she reckoned she

would still stand a chance.

“No! Of course not. Milani and I are not romantically linked. Thanks for your

concern, Ms. Lenoir,” Emmanuel explained quickly.

“Oh, I see!” came Claudette’s reply.

Despite her smile, she felt bitter inside. It looks like there are many women

who have the same taste as me!

After the call ended, Emmanuel was no longer in the mood to buy any

gifts.

I must address this situation with Mackenzie immediately. If she were to

discover this from an external source, it would only reignite her suspicions

and doubts about me.

Emmanuel contemplated reaching out to Mackenzie, but he knew she

was preoccupied and unlikely to discover the situation so soon. He

hesitated, concerned that contacting her at this moment might be

misconstrued as showing off or seeking attention rather than genuinely

wanting to explain things.

Ugh, how annoying!

To his surprise, Mackenzie’s call arrived.

“Emmanuel, where are you?”

“Me? I’m at Midcloud Mall. I’m alone.”

“Why are you there? Wait, why did you specifically mention that you’re

alone?”

Emmanuel had no answers for her questions.

Fortunately, Mackenzie didn’t press for answers and continued, “I’m going

to get off work soon. Pick me up at the same spot where you dropped me

off this morning.”

“Oh, okay. I’ll be there soon!”

Judging from Mackenzie’s tone, Emmanuel a*sumed she still had no idea

about the posts on Instagram.

Given that Milani and Mackenzie were not in the same social circle, there

was a possibility that the news had not yet reached Mackenzie.
