Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe
Love at the Wrong Table Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 326

Chapter 326

Emmanuel didn’t know what the teacher was thinking, so after expressing his

gratitude, he led Tommy away.

“What a hot guy with a touch of maturity…” The teacher gazed at his tall figure

with an infatuated look. He feels like a man with a story, especially with those

eyes that carry a hint of melancholy. It’s simply a killing charm for women!

But despite that, he was neither cold nor wicked, and his smile even carried a

healing touch. How could a single woman like me resist his charm?

Tommy had no idea that his Uncle Manny had caught the teacher’s

attention. As they walked out, he looked up and asked, “Why did you come,

Uncle Manny?”

As Emmanuel patted his little head, he replied, “I quit my part–time job. From

now on, I’ll come to pick you up after work.”

Quitting the part–time job meant avoiding seeing Mackenzie, so as not to

face her without knowing what to say. Besides, his family’s financial situation

was improving, and he didn’t need to work so hard anymore. Also, he knew

what kind of woman Abellyn was, so he came to pick up Tommy after work.

As expected, that woman didn’t even come to pick up her son.

“Thank you, Uncle Manny.” Tommy was thrilled. These past few days, he had

been constantly worried, fearing that his father would pass away and no one

would care for him anymore. Now that he had heard these words from

Emmanuel, he felt relieved. “By the way, Uncle Manny, do you know how my

dad is doing now?”

“He still needs a few more days of rest before he can be discharged from the

hospital.” Emmanuel didn’t want to tell Tommy too much to avoid worrying

him. Also, he was researching traditional medicine treatments and would go

to wake up Ryder in no more than two days. “Oh, by the way, Tommy, did you

see your dad when he got hit by a car?” He didn’t know about the scene of

the accident, so he just asked casually.

However, Tommy became agitated and said, “Of course! Mom was in

another man’s car, and that man intentionally drove the car into Dad! But

Mom told me not to say anything. She said that if I did, I wouldn’t just lose my

dad, but also my mom and I would become an unwanted little stray dog…

Sniff…” As he spoke, he started sobbing.

Hearing that, Emmanuel quickly embraced him and comforted him. “Don’t

worry, Tommy. If that was what happened, I would definitely seek justice for

your dad.”

Tommy nodded repeatedly.

When Emmanuel saw the pitiful look on the child’s face, his anger flared up. I

knew that accident wasn’t as Abellyn described. The only problem now is that

Tommy is not yet six years old, so his testimony may not be valid. If only

Mackenzie were still my wife…. She would surely replace a way.

At this thought, he sighed inwardly, and a hint of sadness surfaced. Although

they had been married for less than two months, he found it difficult to adjust

to suddenly leaving Mackenzie.

When they arrived home, he discovered that Abellyn was indeed not there.

He didn’t know if she was openly meeting with another man or playing poker

again.

As he made food for Tommy, he thought about discussing with his mother

whether they should bring Tommy back to their house since Ryder wasn’t

there. Yet, he was worried that his mother would bring up Mackenzie. I don’t

know if she can handle the blow if she replaces out that her daughter–in–law has

divorced me.

Just as he felt irritated, Abellyn returned home. Hearing noises in the kitchen,

she hurriedly rushed over, looking flustered. “Why are you here, Emmanuel?”

Her expression changed rapidly, shifting from nervousness to relief, and then

her red lips gradually curled into a strange smile.

However, Emmanuel didn’t care about what she was thinking and directly

scolded her. “You didn’t even bother to pick up your son. How heartless can

you be?” Maternal instinct was natural for a woman, but he couldn’t sense

any love for Tommy from this woman.

Unexpectedly, Abellyn wasn’t angry. She just smiled and approached him,

saying, “Hehe, I was a bit busy today. Thank you for picking up Tommy. What

are you cooking? It smells delicious.” As she said that, she actively

approached Emmanuel.

When he sensed that, he sidestepped her with a frown and said sternly,

“Sorry, this is for Tommy. I didn’t consider your share.”

For a moment, her eyes flashed with annoyance, but the next second, she

regained her smile.
