Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore
Chapter 1262

Chapter 1262 The Sway Of Love And Business

Witnessing the entire scene, Mackenzie was truly at a loss for words.

Even the most absurd soap opera would struggle to depict such a scene, yet it unfolded before their eyes. It seems that a

woman’s infatuation with a man can genuinely lead to a state of intellectual deficiency.

With numerous media reporters present today, Gautier’s popularity was undoubtedly going to skyrocket once the

news broke.

The same applied to Mackenzie, of course.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

Gautier declined the staff’s offer to check his injuries. Ignoring the fact that Susan hadn’t left the scene, he hurriedly approached

Mackenzie and asked, “Mackenzie, are you alright? Did anyone hurt you just now?”

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

The onlookers couldn’t help but sigh. Sometimes, reality was more dramatic than television dramas, or rather, more absurd.

Love could indeed turn a person into a lunatic or a fool.

“I’m fine.”

Mackenzie reassured Gautier. Ultimately, under the pressure of countless gazes around her, she asked with a slight grip on her

fist, “How are your injuries?”

The truth was unclear, but the fact that Gautier took a bullet for her was undeniable.

If she were heartless towards Gautier, she would undoubtedly be thrust into the spotlight, surpassing Emmanuel’s previous

ordeal of being criticized and trending throughout the city. This might even make her the hottest topic

worldwide.

No matter how intelligent Mackenzie was, she was tightly controlled by an invisible force at this moment. She was

unsure of how to break free.

This invisible and terrifying force was called public opinion.

“Mackenzie, I’m fine.”

Gautier wore a satisfied smile as if he had just received attention from a goddess he had pursued for years.

This kind of demeanor was something even Hubert couldn’t portray.

Mackenzie nodded. However, before she could utter another sentence, a reporter thrust a microphone forward and asked

excitedly, “Ms. Quillen, are you here today to represent the Terence Group in discussing a partnership with the Verkade Group?”

Without giving Mackenzie time to answer, the next reporter’s question came.

“Ms. Quillen, we heard that the Quillen and Verkade families are planning a marriage alliance. Forming a business team to enter

the National Chamber of Commerce?”

Before the third reporter could ask a question, Gautier forcefully protected his beloved, disregarding his injured arm. He loudly

declared, “Everyone, please adhere to the order of the press conference. We will answer questions one by one inside.”

“Gautier is so cool. Protecting beauty with such strength.”

Observing this scene, Lara clasped her hands together. She watched Gautier protect Mackenzie.

This is my vision of a prince and princess.

On the other hand, Beatrix stared at her. She pouted and said, “As a sister, helping outsiders break up your sister’s marriage. If

this isn’t stupid, it’s evil.”

“Hmph, I don’t want to talk to you. You’re not worthy.”

Lara ignored Beatrix and walked away proudly.

“If you can’t argue, just run away. Don’t pretend to be tough. Pah, pah, pah!”

Beatrix retorted without showing weakness.

Since Mackenzie had arrived, she was prepared to face the interview. In any case, she must not let Lara represent the Terence

Group and cause chaos.

If it were someone else, Mackenzie would have fired her immediately. However, Lara was her sister, after all. She couldn’t do

that, so she had to clean up this mess personally.

However, upon arriving at the scene, she realized that this mess was more challenging to clean up than she had

imagined.

Lara was naive and unknowingly manipulated. Mackenzie being caught in the whirlpool of public opinion made it

difficult for her to break free.

Ashton was also quietly observing from behind.

Even she could sense that Mackenzie might replace it challenging to reject Gautier today. The probability of Emmanuel being

cuckolded was increasing.

though my beloved Claudette is no longer here, I still want to separate you and Emmanuel. Just be a puppet, Mackenzie.”

William had been present at the press conference from the start. He warmly embraced Mackenzie and greeted her with a smile.

“Welcome, Mackenzie! We have already discussed the collaboration with Lara and have prepared a 450 million order as a token

of our appreciation. Once you sign, it will belong to the Terence Group.”

“Wow! Isn’t this welcome gift too generous?”.
