Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe
Love at the Wrong Table Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 599

Chapter 599

“Dr. Lowe, you can’t be too emotional in this line of work,” Magnus taunted

Emmanuel after swiftly dodging his fist. Then, he courteously extended a

hand toward Laura. “Ms. Laura, please come with me!”

“Of course.”

As Laura gently wrapped her arm around his, she sent a covert glance

toward Emmanuel before she left. Emmanuel, who managed to discern her

meaningful look, waited for the crowd to leave before he hastily removed all

of the cameras in the room.

Then, he called out softly, “Claudette! Claudette!”

In the next moment, Claudette slowly peeled her eyes open, mumbling under

her breath with a pained expression, “My hand…”

Hearing that, Emmanuel hastily examined her hand, only to realize that three

of her left fingers had been fractured by Magnus‘ grip.

“That b*stard!”

A murderous intent reignited within him, and he even regretted not taking

Magnus‘ life in the hall earlier.

“Emmanuel, don’t be angry! We don’t have much time left… Can you hold my

hand while we talk?” A lovely yet sorrowful smile bloomed on her face.

Emmanuel quickly clasped her hands, and they were cold to the touch.

Although her cardiac surgery was a success, it was impossible for her to fully

recover in such a short amount of time, so her limbs were completely devoid

of any warmth.

“How warm…”

Claudette was finally content–this was why she had come back to life.

“Claudette, did you know that Magnus might not want you to survive? You’re

in great danger now!” Knowing that they were running out of time, Emmanuel

hurriedly informed her of his grave discovery.

“Yeah, I know…” There was no trace of fear in her eyes, and she even went on

to tell him something he found difficult to believe. “I even know that the

person he wanted to murder the most that night wasn’t Mackenzie, nor was it

you… It was me…”

Emmanuel’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief. That night, he had

witnessed for himself how Magnus‘ eyes had been overflowing with love for

Claudette. Had he misunderstood, or was it possible for Magnus to feign such

an expression?

“Claudette, why would he want to end your life? You’re the woman he loves!”

“Yeah, he really does like me… But, his affection isn’t pure…”

After Claudette went through the miraculous revival, her eyes now gleamed

with profound wisdom, as if she could witness things that were beyond their

world. With a grave smile, she continued, “He is a remarkably intelligent man,

and he is drawn to the strange and the unusual. Only things that are odd are

able to draw his interest, and I just happen to be a woman like that…”

Emmanuel tightly clenched her hand, listening to her without saying a word.

“Ever since I was born, my body has been different from everyone else. I

heard that it’s because my aunt, Felicity, brought something back that

affected my mother’s body.”

“It may sound strange, but I believe it to be true. What about you, Dr. Lowe?”

she questioned, wanting to hear his opinion.

She believes in me! However, Emmanuel did not have an answer. It was his

first time seeing someone as strange as Claudette, and he was only just

replaceing out the reason behind her odd condition today.

“What exactly did Felicity bring back to the Lenoir family?” he asked.

“I didn’t dare to say it before, but now that you’re married to Mackenzie, I can

probably tell you, right? I think it’s an incomplete energy product that was

invented by the Quillen family called Heart of the Sun!”

I knew it!
