Chapter 451
“There’s no need to be overly concerned about the Lenoir family’s matters. As
long as you and Ms. Mackenzie are fine, no one will dare to harm you.
Moreover, the Quillen family will ensure you have a promising job opportunity
arranged for you!” Alfred intended to soothe Emmanuel’s anxiety, as he
understood that offending the Lenoir family in Yeringham was something
only a few dared to face.
Unexpectedly, Emmanuel was momentarily taken aback and responded
firmly, “I’m sorry, but it appears there has been a misunderstanding!”
“Huh?” Alfred was slightly taken aback.
Emmanuel responded earnestly, “Boing with Mackenzie has no connection to
the status of the Quillen family in Yeringham. I’ve never considered relying on
her or her family for my livelihood. My feelings for her are genuine, and that’s the reason I want to be with her.

“Uhl” Alfred was utterly taken aback, realizing that his previous remarks had come across cis somewhat insulting
toward Emmanuel. Like many others, he
had succumbed to a common cognitive bias, assuming Emmanuel was
using his relationship with Mackenzie to advance himself and benefit from
her wealth.
With Emmanuel earnestly refuting him, he offered an apologetic smile. “Mr.
Lowe, I sincerely apologize!”
Surprised by his apology, Emmanuel nodded graciously and exited the car
upon reaching the Yociam Residence.
“Emmanuel, you don’t have to pick Ms. Mackenzie up today. She’ll be escorted
home,” Alfred told him.
He glanced back, displeased with the constant interference and obstacles in his relationship with Mackenzie.
“Mister, I’ll handle the matter with Mackenzie myself. How we handle things should be our discussion. What do you
think?”
Alfred was momentarily stunned by his response but quickly smiled and
nodded. “I understand.”
As the car departed from the residence, Alfred muttered to himself, “Now I

understand why Old Mr. Quillen favors this young man and why Ms.
Mackenzie was drawn to him!”
In Emmanuel, Alfred saw authenticity, which was the most beautiful thing in
the world. Perhaps he and Ms. Mackenzie are together, not because he
covets her wealth and family status, he figured.
Emmanuel promptly contacted Mackenzie, who insisted on him picking her
up by car.
After retrieving his car, he headed to the Terence Group headquarters and found her waiting at their usual spot. At
that moment, he felt a deep sense of comfort, setting aside the troubles with the Lenoir family and experiencing a

“Emmanuel, hurry up and get some groceries. Mom is coming over for dinner
tonight.” She hopped into the passenger seat and briskly instructed him, her demeanor showing a sense of urgency.
“Okay!” He swiftly drove to the market while she diligently worked on her
laptop from the passenger seat.
“Mackenzie, wait in the car. I’ll head off to get some groceries.” Reaching the
market, Emmanuel parked the car and prepared to go grocery shopping
alone.
Looking up from her laptop, Mackenzie noticed the bustling market and
called Emmanuel, “Wait, let’s go grocery shopping together!”
He froze in surprise and looked back, almost unable to believe it. Does she
want to go to the market with me?
“No, how can you set foot in such a place?” After realizing it, he promptly
declined.
