Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11

When Milani regained her composure, her expression

instantly turned into a look of disdain. She did not

believe for a second that Emmanuel already had a

wife. Laughing off the idea, she remarked, “You must’ve

gotten the money from loan sharks. Now, you want to

rub it in my face. That’s why you’re spouting such lies.

What a joke!”

I was at Emmanuel’s house just yesterday, and it sure

didn’t seem as though he had a wife. If he does, why

would he still go on a blind date with me? Does he not

care that he’d be committing bigamy?

Seeing that she doubted him, Frederick started

panicking.

Emmanuel had to go over and tug on his arm. Saving

his mother is the most pressing matter on hand. Why

does he care what nonsense this woman is saying?

Upon noticing Emmanuel, Milani did not attempt to

hide her sneer. “Emmanuel, I heard you have a wife.

Who’d be willing to marry you? Why don’t you send me

a photo of her so I can see what she looks like?”

Naturally, he was not about to send Milani a photo of

Mackenzie just to embarra*s her. Firstly, I don’t have

Mackenzie’s photo. Secondly, this woman still wouldn’t

believe me even if I had one to show her. And thirdly,

Mackenzie isn’t really my wife, so what’s there to brag

about?

Hence, he remained silent while pulling Frederick

toward the operating room. After all, the most

important thing they had to do now was to urge the

hospital to operate as soon as possible.

It only amused her further that he dared not utter a

retort. “Hmph! You two are just a couple of broke losers,

stubbornly trying to cling to your pride and dignity!”

After getting off work that evening, Emmanuel headed

home. He still rode an electric scooter as he had no

money to buy a car.

During the journey back, he kept thinking about

Frederick. We’ve managed to schedule the operation,

but I’m afraid it’ll take Frederick years to return the

money. He can take his time paying off the sixty

thousand from Mom. As for Mackenzie, however, who

knows how she’ll take it if I delay returning the two

hundred thousand I borrowed from her for years?

He was so preoccupied with his thoughts that he

accidentally rammed into the front of a Bentley while

turning a corner.

Bang!

The impact sent him tumbling to the ground, and

when he looked up, his face fell. D*mn it! That’s an

expensive car!

The driver of the Bentley stepped out of the vehicle

with a grim expression. In an icy tone, he asked, “Hey,

are you all right?”

The man had sounded his horn just before turning to

alert the others at the intersection. Despite that,

Emmanuel had not slowed down at all. Hence, the way

he saw it was that the accident was Emmanuel’s fault.

Nonetheless, he could not help worrying as the area

had no surveillance cameras. If he can’t get up, the

traffic police will likely rule the car liable for the

accident when they get here. And if this guy staged

the accident, he might go as far as to blackmail my

boss for a hefty sum of money!

With those concerns in mind, the driver dared not

berate Emmanuel despite his anger, fearing the latter

would get annoyed and pretend to be severely injured.

“I’m all right! So sorry about that!” Emmanuel quickly

scrambled to his feet. Although his calf was bleeding,

he kept insisting he was fine.

He was well aware he had caused the accident by not

slowing down at the corner, and if the other party

demanded compensation, he knew it would not be a

small amount. Hence, he quickly limped off while

pushing his scooter after apologizing.

When he had left, Mackenzie finally emerged from the

car. She furrowed her brows while watching him

hobble away. What on earth was he doing? How could

he drive around so distractedly? Is he trying to get

himself killed?

Not knowing that the man who had just collided with

the car was her husband, the driver asked, “Ms. Quillen,

do we need to call the police?”

“No need for that. It’s no big deal. Take the car to have

its paint touched up. I’ll walk the rest of the way.”

“Huh?” For a moment, the driver was stunned. Then, he

finally nodded and said, “Very well, Ms. Quillen.”

Nonetheless, he was puzzled. This Bentley is her

favorite car. Had something like this occurred in the

past, she would’ve thoroughly investigated the matter.

With her connections and capabilities, it wouldn’t be

difficult for her to make the other party compensate

and apologize for their mistake. This time, though, why

did she let that guy off the hook just like that?

When Mackenzie arrived home, she saw Emmanuel
