Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO - Season 2 Episode 45

Emmanuel didn’t like to quarrel with a woman. Not to mention that she was

Ryder’s relative, which meant that he should act in consideration of Ryder at

the very least.

However, Mackenzie couldn’t stand it any longer. After walking up to

Emmanuel’s side, she responded, “Is this your son? He broke Tommy’s

birthday gift!”

Upon hearing that, Chloe didn’t pay attention to the matter. Instead, she

reacted just like Abellyn when she first saw Mackenzie. This woman is so

beautiful!

Not only was Mackenzie beautiful, but she also had the temperament of a

socialite of high status. Even the boss of Chloe’s previous company seemed

far inferior to her!

Although Chloe, like Abellyn, was also considered a beauty when she was

young, she couldn’t help but feel jealous of Mackenzie’s beauty and

elegance.

Besides, Chloe marveled at Emmanuel’s luck because she couldn’t believe

that a poor guy like him would be able to marry such a gorgeous woman.

“Chloe, let me introduce you to my sister–in–law, Ms. Mackenzie Quillen!”

As the host, Ryder walked over and introduced them politely.

Chloe immediately put on her widest smile and tried to please Mackenzie

because she believed that the gorgeous lady before her was rich and had

high social status.

However, Mackenzie didn’t bother to respond to her. Her expression was

indifferent as ever.

This woman is adamant about defending her son regardless of the truth, so

she’s definitely not a righteous person!

Furthermore, Mackenzie was very protective of Emmanuel. Although she

bullied him sometimes, she would never allow anyone else to do so.

She also wouldn’t let anyone bully Tommy, who was an obedient kid.

“What birthday gift? We are guests today. Although my son broke your son’s

toy, he’s only eight years old. Don’t tell me you expect me to compensate

you?” Chloe asked Ryder impatiently.

Ryder looked helpless because he knew he was being guilt–tripped.

Emmanuel understood very well that if Ryder got into an argument with

Chloe, the three women of the Sheppard family could defeat him easily.

Mackenzie, too, was unhappy that Ryder couldn’t defend his son.

However, on account of Emmanuel, she didn’t want to argue with these

women at Ryder’s house. She didn’t want to be blamed in case any problem

arose in Ryder’s marriage.

Hence, she merely said to Tommy, who was still crying, “Don’t cry. I’ll buy you

a better one. This broken toy can be given to a child who suits it!”

Although she didn’t state it explicitly, it was obvious that she was implying

that the toy was for someone of poor character.

However, Chloe couldn’t understand the underlying meaning because she

clearly lacked education. Looking like she had stumbled upon a great deal,

she quickly stuffed the drone into her son’s hands without giving Tommy a

chance to refuse.

On the other hand, Tommy was generous. “You can have that broken toy.

When I have a new one, I won’t let you play with it!” he declared with a cold

snort.

This time, Robby burst into real tears. With an envious expression on his face,

he pleaded to his mother, “Mom, I want a new toy too! I want one too!”

Chloe was about to agree to buy him a new one when she saw the price tag

still attached to Tommy’s toy. The toy cost eight hundred and eighty–six. How

could she afford to buy such an expensive toy for her son to play with?

“No showing off, Tommy! You’re still a young kid. Who taught you to be so

arrogant?”

Abellyn couldn’t help but feel that Mackenzie was intentionally showing off.

However, since Mackenzie was not someone to be messed with, she directed

her frustration toward Tommy.

Disgusted by Abellyn’s behavior, Mackenzie thought that she was unworthy of

being Tommy’s mother.

“All right, it’s our son’s birthday today. No one is allowed to scold him! Go to

the kitchen and help out so we can start the feast sooner and welcome the

guests.”

Ryder couldn’t take it anymore and finally spoke up.

However, Abellyn snorted coldly and sat back on the couch with her arms

crossed, throwing a tantrum. “I’m not making dinner. Other people’s wives

don’t have to work in the kitchen, so why should I?”

“You…”

Ryder really had had enough of her. He was so angry that he raised his hand.
