Chapter 856 Trust Me Just This Once

“My, my, are you two lovebirds trying to torment me, a single woman, by being all lovey-dovey?”

At first, Beatrix was worried that Mackenzie and Emmanuel had put themselves under too much pressure, but to

her surprise, they found joy in little coincidence. Is this the power of love?

“You fool, how are you going to handle this? If we can’t find any company willing to handle logistics for us in five

days, it’ll delay the shipment. In that case, we’ll need to pay a large compensation.”

After she had a hearty laugh, Mackenzie put on a stern face, trying to intimidate Emmanuel into speaking the truth.

Is he just talking nonsense, or does he have a plan?

“Five days?” Emmanuel murmured as he frowned. Then, he eventually answered with a firm nod, “It shouldn’t be a

problem.”

What a fool! His overconfidence will kill us! Mackenzie stared at him, trying to find a sign of him joking, to no avail.

Emmanuel didn’t need words to understand what went on in her mind. He gently squeezed her shoulder and/

promised, “Mackenzie, relax and trust me just this once, will you? I genuinely care about you, so I wouldn’t joke

about something like this!”

His words blew her mind. She was unprepared for his sudden declaration of love. It struck her, causing her mind to

go blank, unable to respond.

Emmanuel studied her delicate face in proximity as he felt his heart pound faster.

As if possessed, he drew himself closer to her. Terence’s words rang in his mind. Be bold, and go for it!

Just when he was about to claim her lips, a whimper snapped them out of their private moment.

It was Beatrix. Realizing that the pair was about to kiss, she shrieked excitedly. No! I can’t ruin their special

moment! The idea crossed her mind. Therefore, she hurriedly covered her mouth, which explained the muffled

whimper.

As if on cue, Mackenzie snapped out of her trance. Blaming Emmanuel for coming up with the stupid idea to kiss

her, she pushed him off her and turned to Beatrix. “W-What’s wrong, Beatrix?”

“I’m sorry, Mackenzie! I-I didn’t mean to interrupt you! Don’t mind me. Just carry on with whatever you are doing.

B-Bye!”

At that, Beatrix turned on her heel and ran away. I’m such an idiot! I can’t believe that I ruined Emmanuel’s special

moment after he bravely fought off bad guys for me today.

After Beatrix left, Mackenzie glared at Emmanuel. Her hardened eyes seemed to be saying one thing. ‘Explain

yourself, Mr. Lowe.’

Scratching his head in embarrassment, he abruptly changed the subject. “Let’s go back, Mackenzie.”

She sneered at him one more time before walking toward the Maserati.

He stared at her in confusion. What does that mean? Well, there’s no use dwelling on that. We can leave it for later.

It’s time to go home.

After dropping Mackenzie off at work the next morning, he planned to contact Eve. He didn’t expect Sage to call

when he checked his phone.

“Emmanuel, thanks to you, Ashton has finally identified the murder suspect of Sebastian’s car accident!”

“Who is it?” Emmanuel asked.

“A well-trained guy who currently serves as Magnus’ personal bodyguard. Taking him’ down will be a challenge,”

Sage lamented.

Emmanuel chuckled at Sage’s tone. “Sage, this doesn’t sound like you. Back on the battlefield, you defeated the

White Hawk, the man who made himself known among the seven nations, with your unwavering

determination. You also depended on your strong belief to kill eight enemy generals with your bare hands. Who’s

there to be afraid of?”

Sage forced a smile at Emmanuel’s tease. “Emmanuel, it all happened back when I was in my prime. Besides, I was

still no match for him when I was in my prime. You’re our only hope to take him down.”

“Oh, who exactly is that guy?” Sage’s statement piqued Emmanuel’s curiosity. After all, only a few people in this

world could make Sage feel humbled.
