Chapter 996
Beatrix was terrified. Fortunately, her brother-in-law was by her side, or else her grandfather would have been in
grave danger.
If her grandfather had suffered a heart attack and died like this, she would have been responsible!
Beatrix was growing more and more fond of her brother-in-law!
Only then did Alfred hurriedly give Terence the medicine, and fortunately, everything turned out fine!
“Grandpa, you should go back to your room and rest. Leave the matters outside to me!”
Emmanuel was concerned about Terence’s condition. Terence couldn’t handle any more shocks, so he had to take
care of everything.
“Alright…”
After a moment of thought, Terence sighed and nodded. “Then, Emmanuel, I’m counting on you!”
“Grandpa, I will take care of everything. You don’t have to worry!”
After comforting Terence, Emmanuel walked out of the hotel with Beatrix.
There were more people gathered outside than they had anticipated!
Apart from a small number of miners wearing mining uniforms, the rest were mostly family members of the
miners. At a glance, there was a sea of people.
Even the security guards and waiters in the hotel were panicking because of this situation. If a riot broke out, they

“Ms. Quillen, where is Old Mr. Quillen?”
Mr. Harrison saw Emmanuel and Beatrix coming out and quickly approached them anxiously.
“My grandpa is not feeling well. He has entrusted the affairs here to his grandson-in-law!”
Beatrix quickly pointed at Emmanuel to inform Mr. Harrison.
“Oh, so Mr. Lowe is your husband, Ms. Quillen?”
Mr. Harrison had only just learned Emmanuel’s identity and looked a little surprised.
This man is really low-key!
To be precise, Mr. Harrison still didn’t know Emmanuel’s identity. He thought he was Terence’s driver or bodyguard
before, but now he thought he was Beatrix’s husband.
“What?”
Beatrix was taken aback. She didn’t expect such a misunderstanding. A blush appeared on her pretty face, but she
didn’t explain further.
Emmanuel also didn’t have time to explain, as a group of villagers were already pleading desperately to him.
“Please, invest in the mine!”

Without the mine, we won’t be able to find work. My whole family will starve to death!”
“You also came from our town. Don’t turn a blind eye to our plight!”
Seeing their pleading expressions and helpless eyes, Emmanuel couldn’t help but feel heartbroken.
Nobody would willingly come and beg others if they weren’t desperate.

At this moment, with Shane leading the way, Red and her grandmother emerged from the crowd and came before
Emmanuel.
“Manuel, I’m begging you, could you please help them?”
“Many of them were my dad’s former colleagues. I know their family situation well. Most of the families rely on the
head of the household to make a living at the mines. Without a source of income, they will really starve!”
“There are few job opportunities in this town, and finding work is really difficult!”
Red and her grandmother also pleaded with Emmanuel.
Although this matter had nothing to do with them, when Red’s dad was still alive, he used to work as a miner, and
their family almost fell apart after his accidental death.
So, she really didn’t want other families to experience the same tragedy as them, or even worse!
“Alright! I promise to help you!”
Emmanuel saw this scene in front of him and almost didn’t hesitate at all. He readily agreed.
Beatrix was shocked!
What was her brother-in-law doing?
She thought he wasn’t from this town and wouldn’t be emotionally involved like their grandfather. Who would have

What should she do now?
This iron mine and these poor workers would burden the Quillen family!
“Mr. Lowe, are you serious about what you said?”
When Mr. Harrison heard this, he was overjoyed and tightly held Emmanuel’s hand.
“Of course!”
Emmanuel nodded. “I dare not deceive thousands of families, let alone joke about the livelihoods of thousands of
people!”
“Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Lowe!”
Mr. Harrison was so agitated that tears welled up in his eyes. He immediately raised his arm and said to everyone,
“Everyone, rest assured! The Quillen family will take over the iron mine, and you will not lose your jobs! You will not
lose your source of income!”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately cheered!
“Thank you, Mr. Lowe!”
“Mr. Lowe is our savior!”
“Long live the Quillen family! Long live Old Mr. Quillen! Long live Mr. Lowe!”
Seeing them go from worry to excitement, cheering and jumping, Emmanuel couldn’t help but smile.
