Chapter 353

The following day, Terence showed up at the Terence Group, and despite

being the company’s chairman, he rarely set foot in the office. Since handing

over the company to Mackenzie several years ago, he had only been in the

office less than twice a year. When everyone witnessed his gloomy

countenance as he stormed in, they were overcome with fear. Even the

executives quavered as they greeted him, while some lower–ranking

employees were too terrified to approach him. Afterward, he marched

straight into his granddaughter’s office.

However, she scowled when she heard someone burst into her office. No one

has ever been so bold; does this person have a death wish? When she

looked up and saw her grandfather and Alfred standing there, she jumped to

her feet. “Grandpa, why are you here?”

“Do you want me to die out of anger?” While saying this, Terence angrily

tapped his cane on the floor. “Didn’t I tell you that you are not allowed to get a

divorce? I told you to give me a great–grandchild! Do you not listen to a word

I say? Do you honestly believe I would not take back what I’ve given you?”

I would have cursed the living daylights out of whoever threatened me if it

wasn’t Grandpa! However, Mackenzie chose not to argue against what her

grandfather had said and not because she was afraid to. Then, she averted

her gaze and remained silent.

When Terrence saw her acting in such a way, it infuriated him even more. I

can dismiss her and leave the company to the other women in the Quillen

family, but none of them are as talented as her.

“Ms. Mackenzie, your grandfather has a heart condition. Please think of his

aging body!” Alfred could not resist speaking up in an effort to sway her mind.

“It’s not my fault, Grandpa.” Finally, Mackenzie explained, albeit grudgingly, “I

gave Emmanuel a chance, but not only has he refused to admit he has done

anything wrong, but he also continues to flirt around with Claudette. What do

you want me to do?”

“You… Oh…” Ultimately, Terence sighed because he knew how obstinate his

granddaughter was, and he could do nothing once she dug her heels in.

What on earth is Emmanuel doing? I have warned him beforehand that she’s

the type who needs to be charmed into doing anything; she’s not one to put

her feelings into words. I also reminded him to say sweet nothings to her and

lavish her with affection and kisses, regardless of how much she protests.

That brat! At the end of the day, he said nothing and continued to flirt with

Claudette. How infuriating!

At that thought, he said, “Wait and see! I’ll make that brat explain himself!”

On the other hand, he had not wanted to stage an intervention since his

granddaughter had been pretending to be poor, and Emmanuel still did not

know the truth about her identity. Will he finally commit to my granddaughter

instead of flirting around if he discovers she is Mackenzie Quillen of the great

Quillen family, a woman of equal wealth and social standing to Claudette?

While he did not believe Emmanuel was that type of man, Terence thought-

laying their cards on the table was necessary.

“It’s too late, Grandpa. I’ve ordered Mr. Castro to finish the divorce paperwork.

By now, I should be legally divorced.” Then, Mackenzie continued coldly,

“There’s no turning back. No matter what, I would never get married to

Emmanuel again.”

“Well, Mackenzie, what if Mr. Castro hasn’t done it yet? Will you still insist on

divorcing Emmanuel?” Suddenly, Beatrix strides into the room, chuckling and

sticking her tongue out at Mackenzie while speaking.

As everyone in the room was not as dúmb as rocks, they all knew what her

implicit message was.

“What do you mean by that, Beatrix? What did you do?” While asking,

Mackenzie scowled and shot Beatrix with a frigid glare.

Beatrix shuddered in fear upon seeing this.

Nevertheless, Terence reacted instantly and quickly defended her. “You did

well, Beatrix!”

At that instant, Beatrix did not need to say another word for the others to

know she had done something about the divorce.
