Love at the Wrong Table by Emmanuel Lowe
Chapter 61

Chapter 61

It was obvious what this kind of treatment meant.

“Mom, Manny, let’s go!”

Unable to stand it, Roselynn wanted to leave even

before sitting down.

Although the Zimmermans would be paying for the

dinner, she could not care less about it after receiving

such treatment.

Alessandra grabbed her arm to prevent her from

losing her temper.

Even though her family and the Zimmerman family

were not related by blood, the fact that they could replace

the same matchmaker indicated a connection

between them. Besides, they lived near each other, so

it was better to have one more friend than one more

enemy.

Milani shot Emmanuel a smug look.

Melody and Jacob also looked at him. Why is he still

here? He must still want to marry Milani. Haha. We

enjoy watching people who don’t know their place

make a fool of themselves.

Right then, another man in a fancy suit walked in.

Milani immediately went up to him and gently held his

arm.

Her relatives in the room were surprised by the sight.

Alessandra was also stunned. I didn’t expect Milani to

get a man so soon.

“Milani, is he your boyfriend?”

“Yeah, who is he?”

Milani, who had anticipated such responses from her

relatives, gave Emmanuel a triumphant glare before

introducing the man to them in a pretentiously shy

manner.

“Well, let me introduce him to you. This is my best

friend, Darren Chase. He’s also my boyfriend–to–be I’m

currently getting to know. He’s a doctor specializing in

internal medicine at Beacon Hospital with an annual

income of more than three hundred thousand. His

uncle is the deputy director of the hospital, while his

dad is a businessman. I heard that he owns assets

worth more than tens of millions!”

Whoa!

All the relatives of the Zimmerman family went wild

upon hearing that.

Frowning hard, Emmanuel looked at Darren and

wondered if he was the reason why Alessandra was

kicked out of the ward the other day.

Darren did not even spare Emmanuel a glance since

he arrived.

In his opinion, Emmanuel could not be compared to

him. Why should I show him respect when his position

in the hospital is lower than that of mine, and his

family is also far worse off than mine?

“Dr. Chase, you’re such a promising young man!”

“I agree. Your medical skills must be very good since

you became an attending physician at the age of

thirty.”

“Congratulations, Milani. You’ve found such an

excellent boyfriend! His qualities are simply

incomparable to those men you met through blind

dates before!”

Milani’s relatives started showering her and Darren

with flattery. They had already considered Darren as

her man despite her claim that they had just started

dating.

Jacob and Melody, who were also being buttered up,

grew arrogant. They kept looking at Emmanuel and his

family while laughing.

Alessandra and Roselynn felt extremely awkward and

embarrassed as if they were being executed publicly.

Only then did they realize that the Zimmermans had

invited them over to embarrass them and Emmanuel

on purpose.

Emmanuel remained expressionless the entire time as

he watched Milani put on the show in silence.

Compared with Mackenzie, Darren is definitely not as

good. Neither is Milani. But I don’t bother to compete

with Milani. I’ve never thought of showing off my wife!

“By the way, Milani, I heard that you’re getting a

promotion and pay rise tomorrow, aren’t you? Coupled

with the bonus of three hundred thousand, will your

income be more than one million this year?” Jacob

deliberately asked to elevate Milani’s status.

All the relatives of the Zimmerman family gasped in

shock upon hearing his words.

“Congratulations, Milani! You’re so capable!”

“That’s right. You’re making millions a year even though

you’re only twenty–five years old. How impressive!

You’ve done your family proud!”

–

“You and Dr. Chase are both social elites, which makes

you a match made in heaven!”

“This makes me wonder why a man with an annual

salary of eighty thousand would dare to go on a blind

date with you previously.”
