Chapter 1249 Dinner
Indeed, a daughter-in-law’s word was worth a thousand words from a son.
“Alright then. Thank you for your assistance, Mackenzie,” Alessandra said.
“Mom, it’s my pleasure.”
Mackenzie ended the call and walked out of the front yard with Emmanuel. They were ready to attend
the dinner Gautier had invited them to the previous night.
“Mackenzie, Emmanuel, where are you headed?” Beatrix hurried over after noticing them.
“We’re going to have dinner with Verkade.”
“I’m coming too!”_
Beatrix insisted on joining Mackenzie and Emmanuel. After all, it wasn’t an intimate candlelit dinner for
just the two of them, so she wouldn’t be a third wheel.
Mackenzie had no choice but to let her come along.
However, as soon as the three of them got in the car and reached the mansion gate, they ran into Lara.
“Hey, Mackenzie, where are you going?”
“Dinner.” Mackenzie’s answer was much simpler this time.
She didn’t want to bring Lara along, knowing that she had feelings for Gautier.

However, Mackenzie didn’t agree. “Too many people would be inconvenient. Emmanuel, let’s go.”
“Okay.”
Emmanuel drove off without letting Lara get in the car.
Beatrix even deliberately rolled down the rear window and made a face at Lara.
Lara was furious. She didn’t understand why Mackenzie was so biased towards Beatrix. In fact, it was
clear that she was much more capable than Beatrix.
“It must be because of that man, Emmanuel! As long as I can get Emmanuel out of the Quillen family
and make Gautier my brother-in-law, Mackenzie will definitely favor me in the future,” she muttered to
herself and quickly drove away from the mansion.
Half an hour later, Emmanuel, Mackenzie, and Beatrix arrived at the Willow.

“Mackenzie, you’re here?”
Upon seeing the three of them walk in, Gautier immediately came over to greet them.
He was undoubtedly dressed to the nines, looking like a prince straight out of a fairy tale. His
appearance immediately caused many women to scream.
For sure, Beatrix couldn’t help but suspect that these women were hired to play along.

She used to think that Gautier was handsome, but he was not necessarily more charming than
Emmanuel. She couldn’t understand why those women were so indifferent when they saw Emmanuel
but acted like they were infatuated when they saw Gautier.
“Let’s find a quieter spot.” Mackenzie remained composed.
If there was any woman in Yeringham who could be personally greeted by Gautier, it would be none
other than Mackenzie.
In the eyes of other women, she was deserving of the envy and jealousy of Gautier’s admirers.
“Okay.”
Gautier didn’t show any displeasure because Mackenzie brought others to the appointment. He led the
three of them to the specially decorated dining area and pulled out the chairs for the Quillen sisters with
gentlemanly grace.
Then, with a charming smile, he told Emmanuel, “Mr. Lowe, please have a seat.”

Emmanuel smiled casually and sat down next to Mackenzie.
It had to be said that birds of a feather flock together. Gautier, who associated with Magnus, shared
some similarities with him in terms of demeanor. However, he also had his own unique traits.
Gautier wasn’t as profound as Magnus and perhaps not as hypocritical. Nevertheless, his smile made
Emmanuel feel even more dangerous than Magnus.
This man was definitely a hundred times more challenging to deal with than Hubert.
Just because Emmanuel had been slapped three times by him and yet he could still wear such a smile
without holding any grudges, Emmanuel had to be cautious around him. He wondered what tricks
Gautier would play tonight.
“Haha! It appears that you’re not as serious as the rumors suggest, Mr. Lowe. You actually have a good
sense of humor, Gautier responded with hearty laughter to Emmanuel’s words.
Then, he extended his hand towards Emmanuel. “Why wouldn’t I welcome you? We may have had
some conflicts in the past, but now I wish to reconnect
