Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe

Chapter 1644

“Are you ready to make a move?” Envoy asked. He had assisted the chairman

of the Chamber of Commerce in killing numerous adversaries. Still, such

deeds were now mere routine for him.

Levi shook his head and cautioned in a hushed tone, “Let’s not rush into

anything. The organizers have heightened security measures, and it could

spell trouble if we’re caught.”

Though they were under the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, they

weren’t impervious, particularly in Nuthana’s territory. Should tensions

escalate, retreat would be their only recourse.

The award ceremony concluded swiftly, followed by a morning celebration

banquet hosted by the Quillen family.

The hosts would organize a champion parade at 8 a.m. the following day,

during which the Quillen family would bask in the adoration of tens of

thousands on Badlands Island.

“Cheers!”

“Haha, this feeling is amazing!”

“I’m a Quillen forever. Even in the afterlife, I’ll be one!*

“I love my family, especially Emmanuel!”

The celebratory banquet for the Quillen family was held at the organizers‘

hotel. Surprisingly, the most enthusiastic attendees were not Mackenzie and

Emmanuel but Beatrix, Shane, Frederick, and Logan.

Sage was secretly thrilled as well, but for Emmanuel, winning the Nuthana

Grand Martial Showdown championship wasn’t earth–shattering. After all,

te were

Emmanuel’s past more impressive.

“Emmanuel, join me for a toast. Let’s have a drink together.”

Beatrix bubbled with excitement as she persistently urged him to join her.

With Mackenzie abstaining due to her pregnancy, Beatrix saw it as her duty to

make up for the lack of drinking.

He felt obligated and reluctantly agreed to indulge Beatrix. Surprisingly, she

had a low alcohol tolerance. After just a few drinks, she was completely

intoxicated and slumped on the couch.

“Frederick, why don’t you take Beatrix back to her room to rest!” Mackenzie

suggested. She had confidence in Frederick’s character.

“Sure thing, Ms. Quillen,” he responded.

“I want to help too!” Shane rushed over anxiously.

Mackenzie placed her trust in Frederick but harbored doubts about Shane.

Frederick was Shane’s closest friend yet also his foremost romantic rival. They

supported Beatrix’s stumbling form and guided her back to her room.

“What are you doing? Let me go. I still want to have a drink with Emmanuel,”

Beatrix protested. Though intoxicated, she flailed her arms and reddened

their cheeks with her slaps. Even her petite feet swung out to deliver kicks and

pushed them away.

“Ms. Beatrix, you’ve had a bit much. Let’s get you back to rest,” Shane

suggested. He felt embarrassed about being so close to his goddess.

In contrast, Frederick made another attempt to guide her away.

Unbeknownst to them, Beatrix’s drunken frenzy intensified and shoved

Frederick aside.

“Get lost! You guys are annoying. I have feelings for Emmanuel, so quit

pestering me! No matter what, I won’t like any of you!”

With those words, the lively atmosphere was abruptly chilled by Beatrix’s loud

outburst.

Several aunts stood in stunned silence as they alternated their bewildered

glances between Beatrix and Mackenzie.

Emmanuel, too, felt a surge of panic. Who would have guessed that Beatrix

had such a low tolerance for alcohol and would blurt out such nonsense

when drunk? With her confession so brazenly voiced, the situation became

increasingly difficult to manage.

Feeling deeply embarrassed, Frederick awkwardly rubbed his nose. Unlike

Shane, Frederick didn’t indulge in daydreams or consider himself worthy of

Beatrix’s affection. He had never confessed his feelings. Now, with her

unexpected revelation, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

However, Shane remained unfazed and less affected by such circumstances.

Sensing the change in mood, he promptly ushered Beatrix away. “Um… Ms.

Quillen, we’ll leave now. I’ll take care of Ms. Beatrix.”

Frederick sighed inwardly and quickly left the awkward scene. Beatrix’s

drunken confession had swiftly doused the celebratory mood of the banquet.

Mackenzie, known for her generosity, maintained her composure and flashed

a smile at the remaining guests as if nothing had happened. “I’m sure

everyone is

Let’s take a break for a few hours and reconvene

tomorrow!”

The festivities ended abruptly.

Emmanuel escorted Mackenzie back to their room, and they saw Gautier

waiting for them.

“Mackenzie, Emmanuel, congratulations!” he greeted them with a relaxed

smile.

Emmanuel and Mackenzie exchanged a wa
