Love at the Wrong Table Emmanuel Lowe Chapter 601

Chapter 601

When Emmanuel exited the room, the Lenoirs’ butler was already waiting for

him outside. Meanwhile, Quintus threw himself at him and grabbed his

shoulders, asking, “How is Claudette? Has she woken up?”

After glancing at his surroundings, Emmanuel shook his head at him. “Not yet.

Why don’t you head inside and see her?” Since he had discovered that

Magnus wanted Claudette dead, he could not let his guard down. With

Quintus around, at least Magnus would not dare to act rashly.

At that moment, the butler asked Emmanuel, “Dr. Lowe, Madam asks that you

immediately report the situation to her after coming out of the room.”

With a nod, Emmanuel left with the butler. They passed through several

corridors before arriving at an equipment room. Inside the room, Laura was

making a video call with another noblewoman through a large screen,

giggling as they spoke. Their conversation consisted of typical flattery used in

upper society.

When Emmanuel entered the room, he glanced at the large screen and saw

that the noblewoman was not the type of woman that wore all sorts of

expensive jewelry like she was showing off her wealth to everyone. Instead,

she was exuding a noble temperament from within.

Noble and elegant! Those were the only words he could think of to describe

the noblewoman.

Meanwhile, Magnus was sitting quietly behind Laura like an obedient child. In

addition, he had a graceful smile while listening to the two women

conversing! If Emmanuel had not fought with him earlier, he would have

thought he was a nerdy genius!

Kolton used to tell him that the real devil lay hidden under a harmless

facade, and now, Emmanuel had finally comprehended what it meant!

“Hey, it’s Dr. Lowe. How’s Claudette?” Without turning off the video call, Laura

immediately rose to her feet and approached Emmanuel, swaying her curvy

figure.

“Not good!” He was frank. “She might never wake up.”

“What?!” Her figure shivered as tears poured out of her eyes like a waterfall.

She began hitting Emmanuel’s chest the next moment to vent her emotions.

“You liar! You lied to me! You promised that you would save my daughter! If

Claudette dies, I will make sure you die with her…”

Emmanuel frowned in pain. Though Laura seemed like a weak vixen, she was

pretty strong. Also, she treated him like an enemy while hitting and grabbing

him like a shrew! However, he had no time to stop her because he had

accidentally met Magnus’ gaze.

Magnus adjusted his glasses while sadness filled with eyes. Who knew if they

were real or fake?

“How could that be? Magnus, go and check on Claudette. You have to make

sure she lives! She’s the best candidate I have in mind to be my

daughter-in-law!”

The noblewoman on-screen looked anxious.

“Yes, Mom,” he replied quickly like an obedient child. Right before he exited

the room, he sneaked a peek at Laura and Emmanuel from the corner of his

eyes.

Once he was gone, Emmanuel began to think about how he would tell Laura

the truth. After all, Quintus was all brawn and had no brain, so it was

unrealistic to count on him to protect Claudette.

“You liar! I’m going to kill you!” Suddenly, Laura began thrashing around

vigorously and pulling at Emmanuel’s clothes.

The new shirt he had specially put on for tonight was ripped into pieces, and

there were even scratches and blood on his chest and neck! Depressed, he

thought, This woman is so powerful! Is she beating me up like how she would

to a mistress?

Just as he was thinking of stopping her, she suddenly threw herself at him

and stood on her tiptoes, parting her red lips to whisper in his ear, “Dr.

Handsome, do you have a secret to tell the little old me?”

-Emmanuel felt electrocuted. When he looked at the computer equipment, he

saw they were out of the picture. It was then that he realized what Laura was

doing; she was trying to avoid the noblewoman inside the screen.

He knew the woman before him was more complex than she seemed! Could

she have seen through Magnus’ thoughts too?

“Mrs. Lenoir, someone doesn’t wish for Claudette to live!” He made it short and

simple.

Her expression showed slight shock, but she whispered in his ear, “It’s not that

he doesn’t want Claudette to live. He refuses to see her become someone

else’s wife… It’s such a pity. He knows he can’t change reality, so he destroys

everything to save his pride…

When Emmanuel heard that, he fell into a deep thought.
