Shane was furious as well. “She’s so disrespectful!” he exclaimed.

However, Terence chuckled and said, “Marilyn, right? How about this? I’ll make a bet with you. Maybe you’ll end up

liking this old man later!”

“You?” Marilyn was also quite surprised. She didn’t expect Terence to talk to her like that. But after giving him a

once-over, she made a face and said, “Old man, I prefer energetic and handsome young guys. You don’t fit the

bill!”

Terence smiled and didn’t argue with her. He simply regarded her as an ignorant child.

She rolled her eyes once again and left the house.

As she was leaving, she bumped into Emmanuel. Suddenly, she realized something and sneered, “Oh, so Red

Mosley likes you, huh? You have a good figure, but… you don’t look like a wealthy person.”

Emmanuel frowned, not understanding what she was talking about, while she just chuckled and sped off on a

motorcycle.

“That woman. Could she be Red’s sister?” Emmanuel noticed that she bore a striking resemblance to Red, but their

personalities were completely different.

However, he didn’t pay much attention to their encounter and went inside to cook.

That night, Terence had a fervid conversation with the old lady. Around 11 p.m., he, Emmanuel, and Shane left

Red’s house and checked into a nearby hotel.

After 11 p.m., Mackenzie, who was in Yeringham, received a call from Terence.

“What? Grandpa, you want to invest 150 million in Anchortown?” Mackenzie was shocked upon hearing Terence’s

plan.

“Yes. Anchortown is our family’s hometown. Now that we have money, we should return and help the people in the

village. They are too impoverished!” Terence said with compassion.

When he returned to the town that day, he realized that the town’s economy had hardly developed in the past

decade.

These living conditions were acceptable over a decade ago, but Chanaea had rapidly developed over the past 20

years. Most places successfully escaped poverty and achieved a moderately prosperous lifestyle. So, Terence

couldn’t sleep at night, seeing his hometown still in poverty.

“Grandpa, although the company has sufficient funds now, shouldn’t we consider this carefully since we’re investing

150 million all at once without having any return?” Mackenzie advised symbolically.

She supported Terence in benefiting the villagers, but Terence Group had just experienced a bankruptcy crisis. It

was not a wise choice to suddenly withdraw 150 million.

“I’ve thought it through carefully!” Terence said firmly. “Send someone to talk to the mayor about the investment

tomorrow. As for the details, you figure it out.”

“Alright.” Mackenzie knew Terence’s mind was made up, so she didn’t say much. Then she asked, “Why did you and

Emmanuel go back to the town? Was it for this?”

She had a faint suspicion that Terence might want to entrust something important to Emmanuel.

But Terence didn’t answer her explicitly. He just got angry and said, “What’s going on? Hasn’t that boy reported to

you? This is unreasonable. I’ll go and teach him a lesson! It’s the most basic requirement for a man to report to his

wife every day!”

Mackenzie knew he was saying that intentionally but still smiled.

She did want to have this kind of power.

But before she hung up the phone with Terence, another call came in, and she immediately said, “Grandpa, you

don’t need to call him. He’s calling me now.”

“Haha. Good. You two have a good chat! It would be best if it leads to something fruitful!” Terence chuckled and

hung up the phone.

Mackenzie felt a flutter in her heart. This flutter made her feel a bit embarrassed, but it also felt strangely sweet.

After taking a deep breath, she deliberately put on a look of impatience and answered Emmanuel’s call, “Why are

you calling me so late? Did you forget about my habit of resting at 11 p.m.?”

“Uh, I’m sorry, Mackenzie! I just settled Grandpa’s accommodation and called you right away.”

“Fine. You’re the only one by his side now. Take good care of him!”

“Yeah. I will.”

After Emmanuel nodded and answered, the two of them didn’t speak for several seconds.

“What’s the matter? You called me and aren’t going to say anything?”
