Chapter 1139 Bragging

Lara immediately raised her hand after making those outrageous statements.

Although Hannah didn’t say anything, she was the first to follow suit.

Sophie and the other women didn’t hesitate to raise their hands in support of Lara’s claim.

Samantha sighed before also doing the same.

Since they had already made their stance clear, how could their family members not

follow suit?

Finally, Felicity, Terence, and Beatrix were left. It didn’t matter

as it was no longer important.

whether they expressed their opinion

“Mackenzie, look! No one in the Quillen family supports your marriage. You should go to

the civil affairs bureau tomorrow and get a divorce!” Lara declared decisively.

If one didn’t know, they would have thought she was the head of the family.

In reality, she was the youngest among the Quillens!

“Lara, that’s enough!”

Mackenzie finally lost her temper. Her patience for Lara had reached its limit!

Lara, who had been causing a massive disturbance, trembled slightly under Mackenzie’s

icy gaze and dared not speak any further.

“My dearest family, didn’t you promise me last time that as long as Emmanuel and I could

resolve the Terence Group’s crisis, you wouldn’t oppose us being together? How can you

go back on your word like this?!” Mackenzie rebuked harshly.

Samantha sighed and didn’t respond.

Hannah finally snorted coldly and retorted, “Indeed, we did promise that if that man could

resolve the Terence Group’s crisis, we wouldn’t oppose your relationship! However, did he

actually accomplish that feat?”

Sophie also chimed in, “That’s right! You negotiated the cooperation with the Chapman

family personally, Mackenzie! Besides, it was the Quillen family that stabilized the stock

market, along with that mysterious shareholder! As for the 10% increase in the company’s

profits… It was also thanks to your efforts, Mackenzie. What does this man have to do with

any of it?”

Mackenzie fell silent.

Emmanuel could only smile in bitter resignation.

He was actually the one supporting the Quillen family behind the scenes, especially when

it concerned the first two issues Sophie had mentioned.

The company wouldn’t have made a single penny if he hadn’t helped the Quillen family

with the first two problems.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t take credit for

This was extremely frustrating!

Although he was touched that his wife would stand up for him and confront the Quillen

family, he was also saddened by it!

Now that Mackenzie had no words to say, he couldn’t help but step forward and interject,

“Everyone, what do I have to do in order to gain your blessing? What would it take for all

of you to allow my relationship with Mackenzie to continue? Please state your conditions!”

He couldn’t take it anymore!

This time, he decided to shoulder the responsibility and make some visible achievements

to completely silence these women!

As expected, his words promptly silenced them.

It was Lara who spoke up again, smiling as she said, “Then, you should listen to Mr.

Gautier’s declaration of love first! Look at the vast difference between the two of you!”

After that, she immediately video-called her MIT senior.

Gautier was clearly well-prepared as he immediately made a solemn vow in front of the

Quillen family, saying earnestly, “Mackenzie, as I have always said, I genuinely like you! If

you marry me, our families will join forces and surely dominate the Yeringham business

world. I guarantee that the total assets of the Quillen family will increase by more than

30% within a year!”

The Quillen family members gasped in shock.

A 30% increase in total assets within a year? How ambitious!

“Did you hear that?”

Lara stared at Emmanuel as she curled her lips into a contemptuous smirk:

“You and Mr. Gautier are like night and day. He is a president with a net worth well above

billions. What do you have? You’re just a scumbag who only knows how to seek pleasure in

nightclubs!”

“Honestly, this is so upsetting. It seems that there was some truth when the others were

saying that you lack a certain… je ne sais quoi! In my opinion, you’re so lacking that even

a pig would make a better man than you!”

Beatrix didn’t know what Emmanuel was thinking. Right now, she was trying her best to

restrain herself from slapping Lara silly!

All that money was wasted on her overseas education, yet all she learned was to be a

brainless diva?!

Nonetheless, Emmanuel didn’t take Lara seriously. His focus was on Gautier as he wasn’t

sure whether the man could follow through with his boast!

Still, he couldn’t just back down when he was in such a situation, right?

If he did, he would lose Mackenzie in minutes!

“30%? Isn’t that too little?”

“As long as I can be with Mackenzie, I guarantee that the total assets of the Quillen family

will increase by 30% within six months. I can even ensure that it’ll increase by another

60% within a year!”

As Emmanuel spoke, the already astonished Quillen family members were even more

dumbfounded. This time, they didn’t even bother hiding their disbelief under a polite mask

as they exchanged looks in complete bafflement!

Were these men in a bragging competition? What were they thinking? Were they trying to

outdo each other and win the woman’s hand that way?
