Chapter 1250
Chapter 1250 Deeper Motive
Gautier’s arrangement today was incredibly clever. Needless to say, the setting was beautiful.Moreover, the dining area was strategically placed in a public space, yet far enough from othercustomers.
This way, there were plenty of people around who could observe them and witness their reactions,but couldn’t
overhear their conversation.
“Mr. Verkade, I apologize. You spoke for quite a while just now. I can’t recall what you said. Whatexactly is your position?” Emmanuel apologized.
Mackenzie couldn’t help but smile. Emmanuel was clearly mocking the other party’spretentiousness. If Gautier truly wanted to make friends, he wouldn’t need to showcase such alengthy title in his introduction.
Emmanuel’s little trick seemed to have exposed Gautier.
“Mr. Lowe, just call me Gautier.”
“I’m Emmanuel Lowe, the current Deputy Head of the Business Department at Terence Group, andthe husband of the CEO of Terence Group. It’s a pleasure to meet you.” Emmanuel mimickedGautier’s words, even prolonging his introduction before shaking hands with him.
Gautier’s charming smile became slightly strained, but he calmly withdrew his hand.
Then, he snapped his fingers. Soon, several formally dressed waiters brought forth a lavish andromantic meal.
“Mr. Verkade, you’ve truly gone to great lengths. Isn’t this the Westeria romantic meal? As uninvitedguests, are Beatrix and I intruding on your careful preparations?” Emmanuel’s words were cutting.
Gautier clearly intended to have a romantic meal alone with Mackenzie. No man could toleratesomeone else making advances towards his wife in this manner, including Emmanuel.
If he had known Gautier’s intentions, he would not have accepted Mackenzie’s invitation last night.Instead, he would have reluctantly agreed to her invitation to the boxing ring.
Mackenzie rarely witnessed Emmanuel behaving this way. However, she thoroughly enjoyed seeinghis current demeanor.
Beatrix watched the scene with great interest. In fact, she came here to witness the clash betweenEmmanuel and Gautier. The spectacle of two men vying for a woman was too thrilling.
“How could that be?” Gautier, a highly educated MIT graduate who had studied psychology, was notso easily thrown off by Emmanuel. He still smiled charmingly and said, “Our restaurant has aparticular style. Please don’t overthink it, Mr. Lowe.”
The implication was that Emmanuel shouldn’t be so petty.

Nevertheless, it was impossible for Emmanuel not to overthink it.
40%.
You have confessed your feelings to my wife several times. I have tried to convince myself that youare trying to do business with her. However, you openly make advances towards her. How can I
bear it?
On the contrary, Mackenzie was still pondering what Gautier would say. She interrupted,“Emmanuel, Mr. Verkade
knows I’m your wife. How could he pursue me? Choose your words carefully.”
“I suppose so.” Although Emmanuel was angry, he still cooperated with Mackenzie. He nodded andsaid, “However,
Mr. Gautier’s brother has attempted to drug my wife on multiple occasions. I’m genuinelyconcerned.”
Gautier was no pushover either. Not only was he unembarrassed, but he also took the initiative toraise his glass to
Emmanuel. “If such a thing has occurred, I sincerely apologize. On behalf of Hubert, I apologize toboth of you.”
Emmanuel observed his expression for a moment before raising his glass.
In reality, he had another motive for deliberately provoking Gautier, which was to intentionally testhim.
Now, it appeared that Gautier not only desired Mackenzie’s beauty but also genuinely wanted tocollaborate with the Quillen family.
Emmanuel wondered what his deeper motive was.
The onlookers couldn’t help but discuss the scene they had witnessed.
Among them, some had witnessed the previous incident where Emmanuel slapped Gautier. Theycouldn’t help but
wonder how they were so harmonious today.
They still hoped to see Emmanuel and Gautier fight again, and for Gautier to finally lose his temperand have his bodyguards rush up to teach that arrogant man a lesson.
Nevertheless, they maintained a facade of conversation and laughter in front of Mackenzie. It wasunbelievable.
They wondered if one of them had abandoned Mackenzie, and they became friends after theargument.
If that were true, it would be overly dramatic.
“After the toast, Gautier maintained his pleasant and graceful demeanor as he greeted the guests,saying, ‘Everyone, please enjoy your meal.”
Beatrix was astonished. Does Mr. Gautier truly feel satisfied with being sidelined?
“Mr. Gautier, let’s cut to the chase.”
