Chapter 591

All women in the Quillen family were extremely hostile toward Felicity for one

reason alone. Since marrying into the Quillens, she had been constantly

damaging their interests by taking advantage of her status as the family’s

daughter–in–law. She benefited her own family in every way possible:

projects, markets, funds, even landownerships or futures… She would give

whatever she could to the Lenoirs regardless of the situation. Sometimes she

succeeded, sometimes she didn’t. Still, she always based her interests on the

Lenoirs, not the Quillens. Because of this, the Quillen family’s women had long

detested this bloodsucking parasite of their family. Had Terence not focused

on the bigger picture, they would have gotten rid of her at the quickest

opportunity!

Taking heed of her example, most women in the Quillen family thus chose to

stay unmarried to prevent any man from marrying into their family. Even the

daughters who were married off had no real power in the family, so they

could never give away the family’s assets.

However, going on like this wasn’t the solution, considering that the Quillens

were mostly women in the first place. At the end of the day, the Quillen family

was in need of men. Therefore, it went without saying that Mackenzie’s

husband was now the family’s top priority. Every woman in the Quillen family

would keep a check on him, so it wouldn’t be that easy for him to really

become part of their family! At the sight of the look on Mackenzie’s face,

Samantha hurriedly stopped Hannah. “Hannah, what are you talking about?

Stop it already!”

Hannah wouldn’t shut up, though. “Why should I stop it? I’m saying this for the

good of both Mackenzie and our family!”

Samantha stared straight at her, arguing, “Emmanuel was picked out by Dad

for Mackenzie, who only gave her approval after keeping him under

observation for three months! By saying that, do you mean you don’t believe

in Dad and Mackenzie’s judgment?”

Hannah retorted defiantly, “I know both Dad and Mackenzie have great

wisdom, but even they can slip up sometimes! And besides, Mackenzie isn’t

an expert when it comes to relationships. Is it wrong of me to share my

experience with her as someone experienced in romance?”

Knowing Hannah’s sharp tongue, Samantha was really at a loss for a

counterargument for a while. Even though she was also one of those who

helped keep a check on Emmanuel, she wasn’t of the same view as Hannah.

She sincerely didn’t think Emmanuel was the kind of “Socialite Collector” that

Hannah described.

Neither did Mackenzie believe this. She and Emmanuel had spent three

months together, but this idiot never spent a penny of hers. He insisted on

paying back the money he borrowed from her; not only that, he even chose

to leave without taking anything from her as compensation in the event of a

divorce. I know better than anyone else whether he’s pretending to be a

decent guy! If he’s really pretending and is able to fool even me, I’ll have to

hand it to him.

“What’s the matter? What’s all the argument about?”

“Mackenzie, why don’t you dump that Emmanuel guy? You two are from

different backgrounds!”

“I think so, too. At first, I thought he was pretty nice, but he dared to actually

disrespect our family! Who the hell does he think he is?”

“Don’t accept anyone who doesn’t know their place! We already have a

precedent here!”

More and more of the Quillen family’s women came in, each expressing their

own views, acting as though they were guardians of Mackenzie’s love life.

“Shut up, all of you!” snapped a really annoyed Mackenzie. “You’re so noisy!”

With that, she returned to her room, leaving these women stunned for a

moment before they continued to argue endlessly in the living room.

Meanwhile, Hubert was sent back to the Verkade residence by the Quillen

family’s men.

“What happened? Where is Hubert? Is he okay?” asked Winona Zelinsky,

Hubert’s mother. She had just heard that something had happened to her

son. Before she could find out the details, the Verkade family’s servants

reported that Hubert had been sent home.

Hubert was lying on his stomach on the living room couch. Despite being a

man, he burst into tears of grievance as soon as he saw his mother. “Mom…

Mom!”

“What’s wrong, Hubert? What on earth happened to you?” Winona was only

relieved when she saw that her son was still in one piece. All her friends and

relatives had texted her just now, saying that her son was in great trouble or

that her son was really incredible. However, none of them let her in on the

details, and she was worried to death as a result.

Hubert sobbed like a baby with despair written all over his face. “Mom, I want

to die! I don’t want to live anymore…

Clasping him in her arms, Winona pressed his face to her bosom with loving

eyes. “Come on, son, be good and tell me what happened. Who bullied you?

I’ll stand up for you!”
