Chapter 1220 I’ll Avenge You, Magnus

“Grandpa,” she said, “we’ve retrieved the Heart of the Sun. Sage will take care of what happened

tonight. I’ll let you know tomorrow when there’s progress. I’m tired and want to rest for a while.”

The other three women were still concerned. Why didn’t Mackenzie tell them the details? Also, where

exactly was she injured? Why was there something odd about the way she walked?

On the other hand, Terence seemed to have noticed something. After a moment of surprise, he burst

into laughter, saying, “Great! Excellent! There’s no rush; you and Emmanuel go back to your room and

finish your business first! Haha…”

Felicity, Beatrix, and Lara had never experienced such a thing before, so how would they know where

Mackenzie was hurt?

Only Terence, the old fox, knew it, but even he found it hard to believe. Emmanuel, this little rascal,

used to be as timid as a rabbit. He had been living with my granddaughter for almost half a year and

yet hadn’t managed to win her over. Who would have thought that they would… under such

circumstances tonight? Hehe…

As an old man, he couldn’t understand the thoughts of young people nowadays. It’d be best if they

could start a family together.

Back in the room, after locking the door, Mackenzie glared at Emmanuel.

Emmanuel touched his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed under his wife’s gaze.

“You embarrassed me! Someone must know what happened…” Mackenzie didn’t have time to think

about it at the time, but now that she was home, she felt it was inappropriate. This foolish Emmanuel

was so ungentlemanly; he hurt me so much, as if he had torn me apart. I probably won’t be able to

walk properly tomorrow and won’t dare to go to the company!

If people in the company found out what had happened to her the night before, word of it would quickly

spread like wildfire, causing a public sensation!

“I’m sorry, I didn’t think about it at the time…” Emmanuel gave her a wry smile. He really wasn’t a

beast, but all men have their beastly side. All he could do now was apologize.

“Humph!” Mackenzie snorted coldly and walked into the bathroom with an odd gait to take a shower.

The night gradually faded.

In the villa on the outskirts of Yeringham, Hattie also stayed up all night, waiting for news.

Finally, Dominique approached her and said with a sigh, “Miss, Mr. Magnus’ plan has failed again. His

body was found downstream of the river.”

Hattie sighed sadly and fell silent.

Her mother, who had a unique identity, had married into the Zelinsky family. Before that, the head of the

Finally, Dominique approached her and said with a sigh, “Miss, Mr. Magnus’ plan has failed again. His

body was found downstream of the river.”

Hattie sighed sadly and fell silent.

Her mother, who had a unique identity, had married into the Zelinsky family. Before that, the head of the

Zelinsky family had already married two wives. Her mother gave birth to a boy and a girl for the

Zelinsky family, but because of her identity, she was not accepted by the other members of the Zelinsky

family.

When she was little, she was often bullied by other children in the Zelinsky family. It was her brother

who had always protected her.

Since she was a child, she had suffered from a strange illness, which made her physically weak. It was

her brother who had tried every means to help prolong her life.

Her brother had used his intelligence to accomplish many surprising and admirable things, finally

gaining the approval of the elders of the Zelinsky family and being included in the list of heirs. As long

as he could bring the Heart of the Sun back to the Zelinsky family, he could become the family’s heir.

They, as siblings, could then take charge of the Zelinsky family and seek revenge for their mother’s

past suffering.

But who would have thought that her brother, a brilliant person who had always succeeded effortlessly

in everything he did and had been bestowed the title of Magnus the Genius by the Great Sage of

Chanaea, would repeatedly fail in this matter?

The man who caused her brother to fail and even die was named Emmanuel. Although there was no

evidence of it, it was speculated that he was very likely the former Wolf Warrior.

“Magnus, I will avenge you!”

Tears continued to stream down Hattie’s face.

Outsiders believed that Magnus was dealing with Emmanuel because of Claudette, but in reality, he

was doing so for his sister’s sake. There was a mysterious connection between her peculiar illness and

Claudette’s, so it was all for her well-being that her brother desired to marry Claudette into the Zelinsky

family.

Observing Hattie in this state, Dominique clenched her fists in anger. Hattie had humbled himself by

personally coming to Zovince to replace Emmanuel, pleading for Magnus’s life and agreeing to any

conditions he might impose! Yet, that man disregarded Hattie’s plea and killed Magnus! He is simply

too arrogant and self-centered. How unforgivable!

“Dominique, let Mr. Parrish handle the company’s affairs on my behalf for now. I intend to remain in

Yeringham to avenge my brother and retrieve the Heart of the Sun for him!”
