Chapter 733
“Emmanuel, don’t assume that cozying up to us will make us forget what
happened on New Year’s Eve when you left the gathering halfway through!”
When it was Hannah’s turn, she smiled ambiguously and said, “It seems like
you still owe us an explanation.”
She improved her attitude toward him!
This is because she knew that Terence was satisfied with him as his
grandson-in-law.
However, she and the others were not satisfied!
They couldn’t bear the thought of seeing Mackenzie gradually fall by
associating with a man like him. Their involvement in an intimate relationship
could potentially lead to the fall of the Quillen family.
However, they had heard that Mackenzie had already fallen. She had also
slept with this man. So, their feelings were extremely complicated now.
Cha
After all, whether a woman had given herself to a man or not was a
completely different matter!
Hannah had been utterly skeptical before about Emmanuel genuinely
becoming part of the Quillen family. However, she was not so sure now.
So, she couldn’t maintain her prior attitude, causing unnecessary friction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOtherwise, if Emmanuel did become a member of the Quillen family in the
future, it would pose problems for her.
The women of wealthy families were usually very thoughtful, considering
every step and evaluating each action. They were not simple-minded
people.
“Aunt Hannah, and all the relatives of the Quillen family, I want to formally
apologize to all of you.”
In order not to make things difficult for Mackenzie, Emmanuel had to
apologize to the whole family, “That night, Claudette was critically ill, and her
elder brother, Quintus, asked me to rescue her. That’s why I left.”
Everyone was well aware of it. So, when they heard him say it again, there
wasn’t much reaction.
“Oh, I see!”
Stephanie, the eldest aunt, adopted an understanding expression, but she
asked immediately, “So, was Ms. Lenoir saved?”
Everyone’s eyes were on Emmanuel, and some even had a hint of a smile.
“She was saved that night, but she has passed away.”
Emmanuel answered with a gloomy expression.
“Oh, so your efforts that night were futile.
Hannah immediately responded.
“Oh, what a pity. It’s quite a waste for you to have cared so much about her.”
“Why did she just die like that?”
Other women joined in the discussion too.
They wanted to embarrass Emmanuel and belittle the impact of his
explanation.
He left his wife on New Year’s Eve for a woman who wasn’t ultimately saved.
Was that an acceptable behavior?
“Enough of this discussion. Let’s proceed with the banquet.”
Terence gave an order at that time, obviously wanting to help Emmanuel out.
Now that Emmanuel had slept with his granddaughter, he was even more
certain about this position as his grandson-in-law. How could he not protect
him?

Unexpectedly, Emmanuel grew serious. “Aunt Hannah, how can you say it
was futile? Every life is valuable. Furthermore, Claudette saved both
Mackenzie and me. Just because she’s no longer here, does that mean I
shouldn’t have tried to help her back then? We all have a destiny to die. Does that make our current existence
meaningless?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the women of the Quillen family looked at

The atmosphere suddenly cooled down!
Mackenzie remained silent.
She knew that most of the women in the Quillen family looked down on
Emmanuel and didn’t want him to join the Quillen family, so they would make
things difficult for him.
It might be Aunt Hannah’s strategy to deliberately provoke Emmanuel and
make him get angry.
After all, who would want to add a new member who would make the family
discordant every day?
“You’re right. I’ll apologize to you. Is that okay?”
Hannah deliberately apologized to Emmanuel.
After all, he was Mackenzie’s lawful husband.
This scene didn’t escape the notice of the other women in the Quillen family.
Many of them were growing more disapproving of Emmanuel. Even Hannah
had softened her stance. What if this man used the protection of Terence
and Mackenzie to intimidate them in the future?
“There’s no need for that.”
Emmanuel didn’t understand their thoughts, but he replied calmly.
However, he already felt exhausted. Reality’s prestigious families were not as
depicted in s.
They were even more challenging to integrate into than the fictional ones.
