Ch. 1451..1460

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1451-Jack felt surprised and thought about what had happened.

“Emmanuel, did you… did you guys pay the money?” Jack rushed back excitedly to inquire.

“Pay the bill? Pay for what?” Emmanuel threw back the question to Jack.

Having watched Jack grow up, how could he not be familiar with his cousin’s personality? He had phoned earlier and let Emmanuel know that they were heading out first to avoid them seeking assistance with the bill.

Emmanuel understood Jack was so stingy and such a narrow-minded person.

It’s the same as before, Jack was no change at all! or this meal? Don’t y “The bill guys need to pay for it?” Cherlynn couldn’t wait and ran over to ask.

“Oh, you mean this isn’t it all complimentary?” Tia, more astute than Ryder and Alessandra, quickly cooperated with Emmanuel, feigning surprise.

“What? Complimentary?!” Jack and the others exclaimed simultaneously and felt unbelievable.

“A bill of over a million waived like that? Why waive it?” Cherlynn felt surprised and quickly asked.

“Oh, I’m not entirely sure about this matter!” Tia replied with a smile, “It seems that the restaurant’s Jude greatly admires Mr.

Lowe.

Not only did he especially send wine over, but he also took the initiative to waive the bill for us. Didn’t he waive it for you guys?” “Huh?!” Jack was suddenly stunned, he had paid 200 thousand!” “Mr. Lowe!” At that moment, two pretty waitresses finally caught up and bowed to Emmanuel, apologizing, “Sorry, your relative walked too fast and we couldn’t stop him even when we called out! By the time we turned around, he had already settled the bill! And he kept insisting he wasn’t with you guys so we couldn’t do anything!” Emmanuel simply responded with a nonchalant “Oh,” without showing any particular reaction.

Jack got what he deserved. Angela, considering them as her relatives, instructed the staff to comp their meals. He was so concerned that his own family would take advantage of him to heat that, hastily paid the bill and left.

Who could blame anyone for that?

Since he was so wealthy, let him feel a pinch!

“Oh…Oh my!” Regarding the matter of 200 thousand, Jack no longer cared about dignity. He quickly pleaded with the two waitresses, “So… since it’s complimentary, can you refund the money to us now?” The two gorgeous waitresses, who exuded five-star service, were naturally quick-witted. Seeing the strained relationship between Emmanuel and Jack, they directly refused, “Sorry, our restaurant doesn’t provide refund services!” “What? This!” Jack was once again frustrated and felt speechless.

Benny looked at his son’s foolish behavior and was also flushed with embarrassment.

He felt disappointed in his son and scolded him silently.

If you’ve already paid and want to save face, what does this last wailing mean?

Either stand to die or live under your knees, but Jack chose to die under your knees. Why did I give birth to such a weak-willed son?

“Ah! I finally understood!” Cherlynn suddenly realized, her eyes fluttering as she looked at Emmanuel and exclaimed, “So, the noble one everyone has been talking about is Emmanuel, not Jack!” Emmanuel sneered, feeling no admiration from Cherlynn, and casually said, “Since we’ve finished eating, let’s go!” Jack watched this scene, feeling a surge of energy in his chest. He had spent 200. thousand to earn Cherlynn’s admiration, but now he found himself admiring Emmanuel instead. How could he not hold a grudge?!

In the end, the two groups went their separate ways.

Jack’s family headed to their newly acquired mansion, but Jack’s mood had soured. He felt like Emmanuel had stolen his spotlight, and now Cherlynn didn’t seem interested in him anymore!

He recalled that Emmanuel’s family used to be very poor, so when did Emmanuel become superior to them?

Yes, it was when he married Mackenzie!

However, family’s reputatione was Onza and he refused to believe that the Quille would last forever!

Emmanuel didn’t care about his cousin’s family’s opinion of him. He searched for a hotel first to let his mother and Julian’s family rest well.

Glancing at the time, it was almost time to pick up Mackenzie from the company!

But as he exited the hotel, he sensed someone lurking in the corner. His gaze was sharp then he looked at the surroundings but found no one.

Emmanuel’s expression remained stoic as he commanded, “Come out!” Someone suddenly walked out from the quiet corner of the hotel building.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1452-A hideous man!

“Haha, how impressive! You have indeed defeated Magnus!” exclaimed Blake.

“Blake! Why are you sneaking about there?” Emmanuel frowned slightly and stared at the hideous man.

Is he here to come after me again? Is Magnus going to make a comeback?

“Haha, relax! I’m not your enemy anymore,” Blake said as he looked at Emmanuel’s eye and clenched fist. He quickly waved his hand and stepped back with a smile, for he didn’t want to engage in a one-on-one fight with Emmanuel.

“What do you mean? Didn’t the Zelinsky family send you here?” Emmanuel continued to question.

“No, no,” Blake replied. He looked around and stretched as he sat on the stone lion. before the hotel. “The heir of the Zelinsky family has been determined.

Magnus couldn’t be bothered to deal with you as he is out of the picture; I’m also out of a job and have no interest in returning to Zovince,” Blake said.

Emmanuel was skeptical and asked, “Then why did you follow us here?” “Duh, I came to see my son. Did you think I came here to see you?” Blake said nonchalantly.

“Your son?” Emmanuel’s eyes sharpened.

“Haven’t I told you? Liam Willis is my son, although he was actually supposed to be called Liam Dotson-” Swoosh!

Before Blake could finish, Emmanuel appeared before him, grabbing him by the collar tightly.

“Haha, I’m just speaking the truth. Why are you so worked up?” Blake chuckled nervously.

“I want to hear a detailed explanation of how he is your son. You are way too unattractive to be his father!” Although Blake had briefly mentioned this to Emmanuel at The Paradise, he had not provided the details. Now that they had time together, Emmanuel wanted to hear the whole story.

“Well, Julian isn’t much better looking than I! I used to be even more handsome than you. The men in the Dotson family are all good-looking! If it weren’t for martial arts training, I would not look like this now.” Blake explained boldly.

Under Julian’s intense glare, Blake couldn’t help but spill all the truth about what had happened in the past. As Blake finished talking, Emmanuel punched him in the face, knocking him off the stone lion.

“Hey, what’s going on over there?” “No sitting on the lion, and absolutely no fighting near the hotel, understood?” At that moment, two security guards from the hotel rushed over upon hearing the noise. Emmanuel ignored them and warned Blake as he approached. “If you value your life, refrain from discussing this matter further, or I will end you!” Blake grinned, neither agreeing nor refusing. Emmanuel let go of him and allowed him to leave. Blake did not seem to be a threat to the Summerton family based on his demeanor. He could have taken action long ago if he wanted to.

Mackenzie did not meet Alessandra at the hotel that night. Instead, She worked late into the night and went home completely exhausted. Mackenzie went to sleep as soon as she reached home.

After a good night’s sleep, she went to a seaside residential area in the southern district of Onza with Emmanuel in the morning. The couple was not alone this time but joined by Beatrix, a relative with nothing better to do at the banquet.

When they learned Beatrix was coming along, Frederick and Shane hurried over. They were all neighbors from the same village at Hero’s, including Mackenzie.

“Mackenzie, this place seems familiar to me!” Beatrix suddenly exclaimed as “were about to enter the seaside buildings. “I remember now, I vaguely recall seeing similar buildings and scenery when I was kidnapped by that scoundrel Aidan!” Emmanuel and Mackenzie exchanged a knowing glance.

Mackenzie quickly speculated. “This is the affluent residential area of Onza.

Aidan might also reside here!” She then turned to Emmanuel.

When Emmanuel took Mackenzie home the previous afternoon, he had briefly mentioned his uncle’s family to Mackenzie. Observing Mackenzie’s expression, Emmanuel immediately pondered. “Mackenzie, do you believe it’s possible that ther Tanner Family supported my uncle’s relocation to Onza for business development?” “It’s certainly a possibility!

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1453-Mackenzie nodded. “I studied their background after the fallout with the Tanner family.

They have cooperated and colluded with various businesses in Nuthana with the goal of taking control of the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce. Over the years, the Tanner family has built many alliances, allowing newcomers to establish businesses and pledge their allegiance to the Tanner family in the name of company representatives.” Emmanuel said, “They might have also delved into our background and built a rapport with my uncle’s family to use them against us!”

Mackenzie thought Emmanuel’s analysis made sense and said, “Whether or not o suspicions are accurate, we must now remain vigilant against your uncle’s family, too Upon hearing Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s discussion, Beatrix suddenly felt like she had walked into a trap. She would have avoided coming along if she had known earlier.

Shane and Frederick had only arrived by car when they entered the villa.

“Look! Isn’t that Aidan’s car?” Shane recognized the distinctive purple car with a flashy design at first glance.

“Yes, that’s him! Should we just ram into him?” Frederick displayed even more eagerness than Shane.

Caught off-guard by Frederick, Shane couldn’t help but glance at Frederick excitedly. He had never killed a person, let alone done this in such a bold manner!

“Are you afraid? Let me do it, then!” Frederick might not possess Shane’s fighting skills, but he certainly had a hot temperament compared to Shane’s.

Given what Aidan h done toward Beatrix, Frederick could ram him to death.

“D*mn it! It’s not that I’m afraid, but there’s just no way I could crush the Lamborghini into pieces with my old car! My car would cost far more than just one percent of the cost of the Lamborghini.” Frederick thought Shane’s reasoning made both logical and scientific sense, prompting him to scrape the idea lest he absurdly end up harming himself instead of Aidan.

“Let’s tail him for now and wait for a good time to strike later!” “Agreed!” The two discreetly followed the purple Lamborghini to the villa zone with a sea view.

The purple Lamborghini was eventually parked at the car park by the beach.

Aidan got out of the car, still wearing his signature crafty grin.

Just when Shane and Frederick were poised to confront Aidan, they suddenly stop d and swiftly hid themselves in a nearby alcove when they saw Yosef also exiting A vehicle.

“What’s happening? Is Yosef Aidan’s personal bodyguard now?” Frederick whispered in shock.

“Who knows? We wouldn’t be able to fight him now that Yosef is protecting him!” Shane felt helpless. Despite his martial prowess, he paled in comparison to Yosef.

“Hehe, Master Harper, after you!” The arrogant Aidan displayed utmost respect toward Yosef, recognizing him as the key to their family’s victory in the Grand Martial Showdown championship. They needed to ensure his loyalty to the Tanner family.

Yosef remained impassive as he followed Aidan toward the beach. As they neared the shoreline, a dozen stunning girls in bikinis enthusiastically dashed toward them.

What a time to be alive, surrounded by all these stunning girls!

Shane and Frederick couldn’t help but gape as they observed from their hiding sp “D*mn! No wonder Yosef is serving the Tanner family! I wonder if they need any more bodyguards!” Shane exclaimed.

Who could resist being surrounded by twelve bikini-clad beauties vying for his attention? Many men would not even mind taking on the role without a salary!

Frederick shot Shane a stern glance. Shane chuckled. “Just kidding!

Brotherhood triumphs lust. How would I ever be part of the Tanner family?” “Isn’t it the other way round?” Frederick rolled his eyes and teased. “I never saw you as a reliable person.” “How could you say that? Everyone knows that I value loyalty above all else! I wouldn’t even bat an eye at these girls.” Shane beat his chest with righteousness, but he thought otherwise.

At least thirty, so I can have a different one every day!

“Master Harper, do these girls appeal to you?” Aidan smirked, “If you’re interested, I arrange a villa for you here and have them serve you every day.

How does that sound?

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1454-“Please don’t touch me!” Yosef suddenly scanned all the women in the room with a lukewarm glare, leading to these women reading the room and walking away from him.

Indeed, this was the power of righteousness and nobility. The man in front of them would not move a bit even if they stripped to seduce him.

Frederick immediately recognized this side of Yosef, which he was familiar with.

This guy was just like Emmanuel when dealing with women!

“Go away from me!” Aidan was dissatisfied with the result and vented his anger on these gorgeous women, kicking them away with his big feet.

“Master Harper, I wonder what your type is. Let me know, and I will meet your requirements!” Aidan asked with a flattering smile.

“Listen up, Tanner!” Yosef looked aloof, not even looking at Aidan as he spoke, “I don’t care who you are or what rewards you offer. Since I have joined the Tanner family, I will participate in the Grand Martial Showdown as a member of the Tanner family. Don’t try anything funny!” Yosef walked away after saying that, leaving Aidan and the rest bewildered.

“D*mn, he’s a weirdo!” Aidan couldn’t stand Yosef’s behavior. Which subordinate didn’t work for Aidan for money and chicks? He worried that Yosef, with his aloof demeanor and rebellious attitude, would betray him at any moment.

“Mr. Tanner, you don’t have to worry at all.” His advisor, Robin, the crookedmouthed man, leaned in and whispered in his ear, “As far as I know, someone like Yosef would hold himself accountable and value their promises. He would honor his words sin said so.” Aidan nodded, putting on his sinister smile once again.

Seeing Yosef leave, Shane and Frederick debated whether to rush out and deal with Aidan. Suddenly, they saw another familiar face.

“Isn’t that Manuel’s cousin? What is he doing here?” Shane muttered immediately.

Frederick’s curiosity was piqued, too. As far as he knew, the Lowe family should have gone to his house for the housewarming party. Why was this guy showing up here now?

Jack was still in his new villa in this seaside area just fifteen minutes ago.

Mackenzie and Emmanuel’s guesses were not wrong. The Tanner family was the one supporting Jack’s family behind the scenes.

The Tanner family didn’t have to do much. All it took was a small villa worth a few hundred thousand and a struggling small company to get Benny and Jack to work f them.

Jack had no idea about the true intentions behind the Tanner Family’s recruitment of them. He came to look for Aidan, not upon instruction but his initiative.

Putting aside the embarrassment and the fact that she had lost money thanks to Emmanuel yesterday, Mackenzie went with Emmanuel’s family to the villa. Jack took the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Mackenzie when she was alone.

What happened next? Mackenzie completely ignored him. Unfortunately, Cherlynn saw it and asked Jack if he was trying to seduce Mackenzie. She even mocked him, making him feel very embarrassed.

Struggling to swallow this insult, Jack went out to find his backer. While he thought. dealing with Cherlynn would be easy, he knew he didn’t stand a chance to deal with Mackenzie with his abilities!

“Haha, are the Quillen sisters also here on my turf?” Upon hearing Jack’s words, Aidan couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement. If one were to ask him who caught his attention at that moment, it would undoubtedly be Mackenzie! This woman had once embarrassed him at a meeting at the Chamber of Commerce.

To make matters worse, Terence Group took over the Hadley factory he had been eyeing.

Of course, what struck Aidan was Mackenzie’s stunning beauty! Despite having been involved with numerous women, not even belles like Beatrix could impress Aidan.

However, Mackenzie managed to pique his interest. Now that this beauty was in his territory, he couldn’t resist the urge for revenge and to admire her beauty.

Aidan couldn’ help but have such thoughts.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1455-“Young Master Tanner, are you going to mess with Mackenzie?” Jack asked, feeling a surge of enthusiasm brew within himself as he observed the gleam of excitement in Aidan’s eyes.

He could no longer tolerate Mackenzie’s presence. Her mere existence had inflated Manny’s ego and relegated him to a subordinate position within the Lowe family.

They had even discredited him just yesterday! Mackenzie had brazenly excluded him from her interactions while engaging warmly with the rest of the Lowe family.

He cursed inwardly. Who does she think she is? A queen? An empress dowager? L it! If I don’t bring down a woman of such arrogance, I’ll never find peace!

“Hehe, I’ve got a little mission for you,” Aidan whispered to Jack, leaning in.

Though Frederick and Shane kept a vigilant eye on Aidan, unfortunately, they were too far away to catch the whispered conversation. All they sensed was trouble brewing.

“Let’s take him down now!” Shane struggled to contain his urge to confront Aiden then and there, but Frederick pulled him back.

They were in Aidan’s territory, surrounded by his formidable allies. Moreover, Yosef lurked nearby, and his allegiance to the Tanner family made any confrontation with Aidan perilous.

“Let’s go back and report Emmanuel on the situation here,” Frederick suggested.

Dealing with Aidan and Yosef would require Emmanuel’s guidance; otherwise, he and Shane were undoubtedly no match for them.

Shane nodded in agreement, and together, they decided to retreat.

However, just as they turned to leave, a sudden blow struck the back of their heads.

With their vision fading to black, they collapsed to the ground.

Yosef glanced at his two comrades from Hero’s Village, unable to bring himself to take their lives. Instead, he knocked them out to prevent them from returning and reporting to Emmanuel.

Meanwhile, at Benny’s newly acquired residence, the atmosphere at the housewarming. banquet was vibrant. Over thirty guests gathered together in lively conversations. Men discussed weighty topics, while women exchanged gossip and shared various life hacks.

As Beatrix admired Tia’s remarkable embroidery skills and eagerly sought to learn from her, Roselynn seized the opportunity to lead Mackenzie to the garden for a private conversation with Alessandra.

“Mackenzie, what’s bothering you? You look a bit tired,” Alessandra asked worriedly as she gently held Mackenzie’s hand. “Are you overwhelmed with work? Remember to take care of yourself and get enough rest.” Roselynn also noticed Mackenzie’s fatigue as she expressed her displeasure with Emmanuel. “That clueless oaf! Doesn’t he know you need nutritious soup for energy?” “Mom, Roselynn, please don’t blame Emmanuel,” Mackenzie defended Emmanuel softly. “He’s swamped with work and has helped me a lot.” Despite her apparent detachment and her comfort with the lifestyle facilitated by a maid, she was well-versed in social etiquette and traditional customs.

The tradition of Chanaea dictated that men were responsible for external affairs while women managed the household. Even though Mackenzie’s and Emmanuel’s status were different from the average family, having Emmanuel make soup for her ever would likely invite ridicule.

“Since no one takes care of you in Onza, I’ll stay here briefly and cook you some soup and dishes. Your health comes first.” Alessandra had resolved to help Mackenzie tone up her body and increase her chances of getting pregnant. Otherwise, as Roselynn pointed out, relying solely on her clueless son to get Mackenzie pregnant might take forever!

“Mackenzie, please don’t hate having a country bumpkin mother-in-law like me!

If you prefer not to live with me, I can rent my own place and leave after cooking for you,” Alessandra added, worried that Mackenzie might not feel comfortable living with her.

Mackenzie smiled faintly. Indeed, she had never considered living with Alessandra before, but she couldn’t turn down Alessandra’s warmth and goodwill. It seemed unreasonable to deny Alessandra the opportunity to live with her, and perhaps she had to consider acquiring a larger house to accommodate everyone.

“Mom-” Just as Mackenzie began to reply, a wave of nausea washed over her. Despite her efforts to conceal it, both Alessandra and Roselynn noticed her discomfort.

That’s the difference between men and women, she thought.

In fact, she had similar symptoms in front of Emmanuel before, but either he hadn’t noticed them while driving, or she had covered them up effortlessly.

Roselynn’s comment about men being clueless oafs seemed to ring true!

“Oh my, Mackenzie, what’s wrong with you? Could it be-”

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1456-Alessandra quickly reached out to support Mackenzie, her expression as radiant as a blossoming flower-or perhaps more accurately, as the rising sun! She was overflowing with happiness!

Roselynn also jumped for joy after receiving Mackenzie’s tacit confirmation.

“What fantastic news! Both the Lowe family and the Quillen family will soon have heirs!

That was why Mackenzie cherished her friendship with Roselynn. She valued Roselynn’s forthrightness, maturity, and unbiased manner of speaking.

“Mackenzie, when did this happen? Why didn’t Emmanuel inform me? I won’t let that. b*stard off so easily!”

Alessandra, known for her mild temper, now erupted into a rare outburst of anger after realizing that Emmanuel hadn’t informed her of such significant news-Mackenzie’s pregnancy.

“Mom, please don’t blame Emmanuel. In truth, I haven’t informed him yet,” Mackenzie Interceded, coming to Emmanuel’s defense.

“What? Why not?” Alessandra yearned to delve deeper, but Roselynn immediately signaled her to stay out of the couple’s affairs. As a mother, it was wiser not to overstep boundaries; instead, their priority right now should be ensuring the well-being of Mackenzie and the baby.

Grasping Roselynn’s subtle hint, Alessandra understood the significance of respecting the couple’s privacy. She turned to Roselynn and instructed, “Guide your oblivious brother to make amends. He must make sure that Mackenzie and the child receive the utmost care.” “Yes, ma’am!” Roselynn also couldn’t contain her excitement about sharing this good news with Emmanuel, curious to see his reaction.

“Come on, Mackenzie, take a seat. I’ll pour you a glass of milk. It’s essential to drink lots. of milk and soup during pregnancy. I’ll prepare some for you tonight…” Alessandra couldn’t stop fussing over Mackenzie, carefully leading her to an unoccupied room where she could get the undisturbed rest vital for her pregnancy.

Mackenzie found herself drawn to this feeling-a comforting warmth or a sense of true family connection that Felicity Lenoir had never offered her.

Alone after Alessandra’s departure, Mackenzie consciously avoided excessive phone usage during her pregnancy. Feeling bored, she glanced around the surroundings and noticed a diminutive figure darting out of the yard.

“Tommy?” Mackenzie immediately stood up, her curiosity piqued. Is everyone too busy to take care of Tommy? Why is he running out alone?

Mackenzie discreetly trailed behind Tommy, sensing something amiss with him.

Could it be that the mind-controlling witchcraft worm within Tommy has been provoked?

This time, Mackenzie kept her guard up.

Soon, she found Tommy sneaking out to meet with an ugly man.

“Haha, is that Ms. Quillen?” Blake’s keen perception immediately caught sight of Mackenzie.

Startled, Mackenzie realized the precariousness of her situation. Knowing there was no way she could outrun Blake, she mustered her courage and took a decisive step forward, ready to contact Emmanuel at a moment’s notice. This time, she wouldn’t fall into the same trap as before.

Noticing the wariness in her expression, Blake raised his hand in a placating gesture.

“Ms. Quillen, take it easy. I assure you that I mean no harm. I’m just here to see my son, Tommy. He came to me of his own accord as well. You can ask him if you me.” Mackenzie was taken aback and quickly turned to Tommy for confirmation. She could tell by the look in Tommy’s eyes that he wasn’t under control, a stark contrast to their last encounter.

“Don’t worry, Mackenzie! Mr. Ugly has changed his ways. He promised me!” Tommy reassured Mackenzie.

“Promised?” Mackenzie narrowed her eyes, torn between belief and skepticism.

“Ms. Quillen, I ran into Emmanuel yesterday. If he can trust me, I hope you can, too. All I want is to see my son.” Blake grinned.

“I’m not your son!” Tommy immediately cut him off. “You promised to stop pretending to be my dad, and that’s why I hang out with you. If you lie, I’ll never talk to you again!” “Well, you’re not my son. You’re the son of that unpleasant man, and your last name is Lowe. Is that alright?” Blake quickly corrected himself, eager to put Tommy at ease.

Mackenzie observed their interaction and felt that Blake wasn’t lying. She and Emmanuel shared the same thought: if Blake intended to hurt her and Tommy, he wouldn’t have waited until now.

Since Blake and Tommy had reached an agreement, Mackenzie didn’t want to disrupt their moment.

Quietly, she turned to leave. If she didn’t return soon, Alessandra would surely start worrying about her whereabouts.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1457-Just around the corner, Mackenzie unexpectedly collided with three unfamiliar men blocking her path.

She reflexively spun around, only to find another burly man blocking her retreat.

Confusion quickly consumed her thoughts. What’s going on? Is this planned?

Who could have anticipated my presence at Jack’s housewarming banquet today and followed my every move?

“Hehe, Ms. Quillen. Please come with us obediently,” said one of the men with a As they slowly closed in on her, seemingly ready to pounce at any moment, Mackenzie instinctively placed a protective hand over her abdomen. While she

would typically resist or flee, she dared not move this time, worrying that any sudden movement would lead to unforeseen consequences.

Putting on a frigid expression, she asked, “Who’s behind your invitation?” The men momentarily faltered, surprised by Mackenzie’s unexpected compliance.

“Ms. Quillen, you’ll learn once you get there. Cooperate with us, and we won’t resort to force.

“If you try to escape or call for help, we won’t take it lightly.

“We would deeply regret any harm befalling you.” They weren’t just ordinary brutes; they were seasoned kidnappers, the very one had once abducted Ms. Beatrix.

Driven by her maternal instincts to protect her unborn child, Mackenzie gritted her teeth and reluctantly agreed, “Fine, lead the way.” “Ouch!” Just as they began to move, Mackenzie stumbled unexpectedly.

“Ms. Quillen, are you alright?” The lead man asked warily, puzzled by her misstep since she wasn’t wearing heels.

“I’m fine. I just broke my heel. Let’s keep moving.” Feigning nonchalance, Mackenzie remarked as she took off her shoes and tossed them aside.

The men didn’t pay much attention to her outburst, reassured by their presence within the Tanner family’s territory.

“Mr. Ugly, did you hear Mackenzie scream just now?” Tommy’s sharp ear caught the sound. Astutely, he called out to Blake before darting toward the source of Mackenzie’s scream.

“Hey, brat!” Blake begrudgingly followed Tommy.

Arriving at the scene, they found Mackenzie’s shoes deliberately arranged, pointing in the direction she had been heading.

“Oh no! Mackenzie might be in danger. Mr. Ugly, come with me to save her!” Tommy was familiar with such situations; after all, he was responsible for Mackenzie’s kidnapping last time. The weight of that past mistake still burdened him, driving his determination to make amends this time.

“Why should I care?” Blake grumbled, reluctant to get involved. However, with Tommy already charging ahead, he had no choice but to join the rescue effort.

“Mackenzie!” “Mackenzie!” Tommy kept running in search of Mackenzie. Thanks to their proximity to the beach, the streets among the buildings were blanketed with sand and dust, providing the perfect canvas for Mackenzie’s footprints to leave noticeable indentations.

Despite the tender age of six, Tommy showed remarkable intelligence beyond his years, enabling him to track the footprints and eventually succeed in finding Mackenzie.

“Mackenzie!” Despite the looming danger, Tommy ran toward Mackenzie without hesitation.

“Tommy!” As Tommy came to her rescue, Mackenzie’s eyes lit up, and she was amazed by his intelligence. It was worth all the love she had shown him.

“Where did this brat come from? Stay out of this, or I’ll kill you!” Before Tommy could reach Mackenzie, a man abruptly blocked his path, threatening him menacingly.

“Where are you taking Mackenzie?” Fearless, Tommy resembled a hero straight out of an animated film.

Watching the unfolding scene, Blake couldn’t help but chuckle. Who does this kid take after? It couldn’t be his mom, could it? Is it a matter of personality not being hereditary, or are genetic mutations at play? Tommy seems to be more heroic than I am!

“None of your business, kid.” The burly man tried to kick him away, but Tommy swiftly dodged and seized the opportunity to bite his calf.

“Ouch!” the man screamed in pain.

“Mackenzie, I’m here to save you!” Tommy, heedless of the danger, charged towards Mackenzie with determina “Tommy… Please don’t be reckless…” Mackenzie felt a mix of emotions. She was prou that Tommy was her little hero, but she also worried he might get hurt.

Sure enough, the other two men showed no regard for either the elderly or the young, angrily shouting, “Go to hell!” as they kicked toward Tommy.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1458-“Tommy, it’s dangerous!” Mackenzie shouted.

Mackenzie didn’t even think about her child in her belly, and she wanted to rush over to save Tommy.

Unfortunately, she was too slow!

Tommy was terrified. His eyes widened in fear, and he was unsure of how to react.

However, two burly men were sent flying through the air at a critical moment!

“D*mn it, how dare you touch my kid? I’ll kill you!” It was Blake!

Mackenzie never expected that the person who had kidnapped her last time would come to her rescue this time.

However, she rejoiced too soon.

In the next moment, a long-haired and stern man stood in front of her. He was instructing the burly men who had just gotten up and said, “Take her away first.

I’ll handle this.” “Yosef?!” Mackenzie was shocked.

Mackenzie trembled slightly. She was feeling extremely surprised and conflicted.

Firstly, she had no idea how this man appeared in front of her.

Secondly, she never expected that this man from Hero’s Village would become her enemy, while her former enemy had now come to rescue her.

Thirdly, she realized who was behind the plot against her when she saw this man.

“Mr. Ugly, please save Mackenzie!” Tommy desperately tugged at Blake’s pants, pleading excitedly.

“Hehe, why should I care? I won’t save her!” Seeing that Yosef was not to be trifled with, Blake had no intention of engaging in a direct confrontation with such a skilled fighter for Mackenzie. It wasn’t his style Casanova.

“If you don’t save her, then I won’t talk to you anymore! Don’t expect me to call you Dad!!

Tommy immediately threatened.

Mackenzie was about to be coerced into the car!

The child was very anxious and almost in tears!

“Alright, fine. If you call me ‘dad’ now, I’ll save her!” Blake said.

“Dad! Save Mackenzie!” Tommy exclaimed.

“Such a little br*t!” Blake chuckled at Tommy’s words. He had done everything before to let Tommy call him Dad. However, Tommy didn’t hesitate to betray Ryder for Mackenzie.

“Gorgeous women are indeed troublemakers. They’ve even harmed my son at such a young age!” Blake said leisurely, loosening his muscles and walking forward.

“Please stop!” Yosef stopped him expressionlessly and said, “Don’t force me to take action. I don’t want to kill you.” “Oh?” Blake was curious about it.

He was suddenly stunned, as if he had heard a great joke. Then he burst into laughter and said, “Oh, this pretentious talk. I’ve lived for thirty years, and it’s the first time I’ve heard of it! I suddenly feel like picking a fight with you!” Yosef maintained his cold expression, his left hand already resting on the hilt of his sword at his waist.

“Haha, so you’re also a sword practitioner?” Blake asked.

Blake’s laughter grew more triumphant and he said, “I won’t decline a sword fight. Just to clarify, not that kind of sword fight. I’m straight, like my sword. Don’t know about yours, though.” The burly men around who were attempting to force Mackenzie into the car all chuckled.

This ugly man really enjoyed talking nonsense.

However, Yosef remained impassive. His sword’s temperature remains uncertain, but his expression was definitely colder than a butcher’s knife that had been used to slaughter pigs for thirty years!

“Go to hell!” Blake took the initiative and threw a punch.

Today, he was determined to be a hero in front of his son!

This was also his redemption as an unattractive man!

Yosef easily dodged his Thrust Impact Fist, followed by Whirlwind Ho It was still evaded by Yosef.

The third move was a side whip kick.

Completing three successive moves without interruption, moving as fluidly and gracefully as water.

Yosef can’t help but admire, Impressive!

Dang!

Yosef evaded Blake’s three consecutive strikes. The fourth punch finally compelled Yosef to lift the scabbard for defense.

No!

He even drew his sword in one fluid motion!

If another warrior had been in Blake’s place, this punch might have severed their hand.

However, Blake acted as if nothing happened “Is this the traditional Ironclad Fabric? I didn’t expect to encounter such a skilled practitioner like you. It’s interesting!” Yosef’s apathetic gaze finally displayed a hint of brightness.

His fighting spirit also slowly began to kindle!

“Hehe. Not bad, young man. If I hadn’t trained in external martial arts, I might have been defeated by your swordplay in a few moves!” Blake also refrained from being overly cocky and withdrew his fist.

The man in front of him possessed exceptional skill. He surpassed even the master-level fighters he had encountered previously.

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1459-It was probably another formidable fighter on par with Emmanuel!

The spectacular fight between the two deeply captivated the surrounding onlookers.

After a few burly men realized what was happening, they persisted in forcing Mackenzie into the car.

Mackenzie gritted her teeth lightly. She was defenseless and had no chance of escaping moments ago. She refrained from resisting to safeguard the child in her womb. However, now that Blake had stepped in to save her, she needed to stall and hoped that her husband would arrive soon!

Yosef seemed to anticipate Mackenzie’s strategy and promptly instructed the men, “Quickly take her away!” The burly men then reacted.

Swish!

In order to drive Mackenzie to despair, Yosef unleashed his sword against Blake.

A move reminiscent of Dragon Splash made Blake break out in a cold sweat.

His sword was already exceptional, and he even infused internal strength into the blad to make it slice through obstacles effortlessly.

Blake didn’t dare to not evade!

Yosef then executed a technique known as Moonbeam Sword.

Everyone could see the sword emitting a green light!

“Isn’t that awesome?” “It’s like immortals fighting!” The burly men were still not satisfied. They turned back to steal a glance, reluctant to -let Mackenzie be taken away.

Blake sacrificed his hair and clothes, and even his formidable Ironclad Fabric. It also bore a faint red mark from Yosef’s sword blade. Eventually, he found an opportunity to strike Yosef’s temple directly with a Springloaded Fist.

“Dangerous!” The burly men instinctively exclaimed.

Yosef’s gaze remained composed. In the end, Blake’s fist stopped abruptly about centimeter away from his temple.

“Swiftstrike Veinbreaker Sword?!” Blake appeared surprised and slightly pained.

Mackenzie suddenly realized that Yosef’s sword spike had pierced Blake’s wrist when she was about to be coerced into the car. It was causing blood to trickle down, impeding his fist’s advancement!

“Where did you learn those sword skills? That’s so cheap!” Blake bellowed, consumed by anger.

Conversely, Yosef’s gaze stayed calm.

Mackenzie discerned the victor in this confrontation!

The situation looked dire. Mackenzie understood that Blake likely wouldn’t triumph Yosef. She needed to devise an escape plan!

“Mackenzie, you must leave now!” Tommy shouted.

Tommy rushed over desperately and lunged at a large man at that moment. He also bit a big man on the thigh.

“Ah-” The burly man was hit unexpectedly and yelped in pain. After that, he punched Tommy’s temple hard.

How could a poor child withstand such a strike?

Tommy’s vision darkened. He collapsed and lay motionless on the ground.

“Tommy! Tommy!!” Mackenzie shouted.

She cried out in anguish.

“My son! My son!” She continued to shout.

Witnessing this, Blake’s eyes blazed with fury Disregarding Yosef and Mackenzie, he rushed to retrieve Tommy.

“Take him away!” Yosef coldly commanded the men. The burly men shivered, and they swiftly ushered Mackenzie into the car!

Mackenzie was filled with grief and anger, yet she maintained a semblance of composure. She realized that engaging with these individuals now might result in harm.

She wasn’t afraid of injury, but she feared for the safety of the child in her womb!

Ultimately, the van departed in a cloud of dust.

Yosef also didn’t continue to attack Blake. Instead, he safeguarded the Tanner family’s bodyguard to fulfill the mission before he sheathed his sword and left.

Meanwhile, within the villa.

Upon receiving the news from Roselynn, Emmanuel was so elated that he nearly dropped the teacup in his hand!

“Roselynn, you’re telling me the truth? Mackenzie really has a child?” Emmanuel asked.

Roselynn felt like she was about to be scattered by his shaking for a moment.

She quickly moved his hand away and replied, “Why would I lie to you? She confirmed it herself!” Emmanuel was completely shocked. His body froze in place, but his heart was fi with joy!

After a moment, he smiled and exclaimed, “I’m going to be a father? I’m really going to be a father?” He had never imagined that he would one day become a father.

Upon returning from the Northern Region, he faced a major setback in life and was feeling discouraged. He even doubted if he would ever get married.

After seventeen unsuccessful blind dates, he felt even more convinced that no one would want to marry him.

However, he never anticipated that fate would be so kind to him. Not only did he marry Mackenzie, but he also blessed him with a child after enduring numerous trials for half a year!

Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1460-Joy uncontrollably surged from the bottom of Emmanuel’s heart when he thought about Mackenzie being pregnant with his child. The feeling was simply wonderful!

Upon seeing Emmanuel’s current expression, Tia also experienced mixed emotions.

She walked over with a smile and said, “Uncle Emmanuel, congratulations!” Ryder exclaimed excitedly with a smile on his face, “That’s fantastic! If it’s a boy, our Lowe family will have a new generation again! Tommy will also have a cousin!”

Emmanuel rarely smiled. However, he nodded with a smile this time.

Roselynn couldn’t help but pinch his waist hard when she was watching his reaction.

She sternly said, “Are you a fool? Instead of rejoicing here for so long, why don’t you go find Mackenzie?” “Right!” The majestic Wolf Warrior appeared no different from an ordinary person at this moment. It was only after being reminded by his elder sister that he excitedly ran out of the grand living room.

As he hurried to the side hall, Jack walked in from outside.

Benny, who had been quiet all along, immediately grabbed him. He asked, “Where did you go?” Like father, like son. He also knew that his son was upset with Mackenzie and still held onto some resentment towards Emmanuel for what happened yesterday. At this moment, he suddenly ran out. Could it be that he wanted to confront his own relati “Dad, have you forgotten how we made our fortune?” Jack didn’t hide it from him either, leaning in to whisper softly in his ear, “Mackenzie has been taken away by the Tanner family!” “What?!” Benny exclaimed.

He was secretly shocked.

Actually, his thoughts were different from his son’s. He desired wealth but wasn’t in a rush to take advantage of his relatives!

This kid just couldn’t keep calm. If this matter was exposed, who knew how Emmanuel would react towards his family?

“Mackenzie! Mackenzie?” Emmanuel exclaimed.

Rushing to the side hall of the villa, Emmanuel realized that Mackenzie was n be found. He quickly approached Alessandra, who happened to be in the side hal asked, “Mom, where’s Mackenzie?” “I’m looking for her too. Wasn’t she staying in the main hall and having a chat with you guys?” Alessandra asked.

Alessandra also appeared puzzled.

I have just instructed Mackenzie not to wander around. However, Mackenzie is gone as soon as I turn around.

“What’s happening? What’s going on? Are you all searching for Mackenzie?” Beatrix asked.

Beatrix heard the commotion and came over to join in.

A heart-wrenching cry suddenly echoed from the direction of the villa’s main gate before Emmanuel could respond.

“Emmanuel! Emmanuel, come out and save my son!” Blake shouted.

“Blake?!” Emmanuel was shocked.

Emmanuel ‘suddenly had a bad feeling. What’s happened to Tommy?

Mackenzie has Suddenly disappeared from the villa. Could it be related to Blake?

“Tommy? What’s wrong with Tommy?!” Emmanuel asked.

Emmanuel swiftly walked out of the hall and saw that Blake was holding the unconscious Tommy. His heart sank.

Based on his experience, he instantly realized that Tommy had suffered a severe blow.

This resulted in a concussion for him!

“W-What did you do to Tommy? What’s wrong with my son?” Ryder asked.

Ryder was seated in a wheelchair. He also attempted to lunge at Blake with emotion.

Tia was equally anxious, as she also regarded Tommy as her own son!

“Stop asking questions right now! I can’t be bothered with you guys either.

Tommy was just punched by a big guy. Emmanuel, please help him! Aren’t you a miracle doctor?” In a state of extreme anxiety and distress, Blake shouted excitedly at Emmanuel.

Seeing his expression, Ryder was surprised!

Why was I so concerned about my son? Was he some kind of great person?

Emmanuel quickly had Blake lay Tommy down on the couch and carefully examined Tommy’s condition.

After that, Emmanuel gently pressed a few acupoints on the back of Tommy’s head and said, “Tommy has lost consciousness due to a concussion. There are currently no signs of intracranial bleeding! I am using acupressure to alleviate his pain. Please be careful not to move his head around. He should regain consciousness after resting for a while, but there may be some lingering effects.

We can only assess the situation once he wakes up.” Blake and Ryder remained anxious upon hearing Emmanuel’s words. Finally, they both let out a sigh of relief at the same time. The absence of lifethreatening danger was indeed a blessing in disguise!

“Blake, how did Tommy end up getting beaten like this?” Emmanuel quickly grabbed Blake and asked. He sensed that this incident might be related to his wife Mackenzie’s disappearance.
