Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore
Chapter 428

Chapter 428

“Aah! S-Stop! Stop!” Vivian shouted, feeling herself about to be beaten to

death by Mackenzie there and then.

However, Mackenzie ignored her cries. It wasn’t until she was drained of her

energy that she resumed her aloof demeanor, threw the spatula away, and

snorted. “You dare to show off your superiority in front of me? Then, I will strike

you dead with pangs of beatings!”

All the security guards, who were blocking the door, were dumbstruck when

they saw the utmost dominance Mackenzie exuded. They stood frozen for a

long time, marveling at her. Who exactly is this beautiful woman? She’s

simply an embodiment of both an angel and a demon!

“Mackenzie, how’s your hand? It’s not aching, right?” Just then, Emmanuel

expressed his concern. After all, considering the effects of force were mutual,

he feared Mackenzie would injure her hand by overdoing it.

Excuse you! Vivian, who lay on the ground, nearly sprung up in anger. No one

gives a sh*t about me, the victim who got brutally beaten to the ground, but

the one who hit me receives the care instead! Has society lost its justice?

Does the law still prevail?

“I’m fine. I’m not that fragile!” Mackenzie responded proudly.

Clap! Clap! Clap! Just then, someone applauded, and to everyone’s surprise,

it was Mariah.

“I don’t care who you are, but I absolutely won’t spare you today, not when

you dare to injure my subordinate in my hotel!” As the hotel’s general

manager, Mariah firmly believed that she was the only controller in the hotel.

Hence, she feared she would lose everyone’s respect, and none would work

themselves to death for her if she simply let Mackenzie go even after she

dared to beat Vivian up in front of her. In her territory, no less.

It was as if Mariah’s words had woken the security guards outside from a

dream. One by one, they crowded her office, getting ready to fight Emmanuel

and Mackenzie upon Mariah’s order.

Thinking she was in control of everything, Mariah held her head so mighty

high that it almost reached the roof.

“Oh, no! They’re doomed…” The two young trainees only returned to their

senses after they saw such a stifling scene. Sure enough, as the hotel’s

trainees, they were well aware that Mariah was famous for having a stingy

and self-centered personality. Now that Mackenzie trespassed her office and

beat the crap out of Vivian, her lapdog, she certainly wouldn’t let Mackenzie

and Emmanuel off.

“Wait! Don’t fight! Madam Lofis, please forgive them!”

Fortunately, Killian barged in at the right moment. He walked up to Mariah

and stood up for Emmanuel and Mackenzie. “Madam Lofis, Emmanuel is

merely asking for his salary. He has done nothing wrong. It’s fine if you don’t

want to pay him, but how can you still assault him? You won’t want our hotel

to wind up in hot water if things get serious, will you?”

While Mariah was a little swayed by his words, Killian seized the opportunity

and walked up to Emmanuel and Mackenzie. Then, he persuaded earnestly,

“Hurry up and apologize to Madam Lofis. I’m saying this out of my good

intentions. Now that the two of you finally have the chance to be reunited, it’s

better not to be charged with murder because of such a small amount of

money.”

Given his kind nature, Killian firmly believed that Emmanuel and Mackenzie

were no match for Mariah. That was why he tried to help them out of trouble.

Likewise, everyone shared the same thought as Killian. Although they were

clueless about Mackenzie’s identity, they figured she was, at most, a young

uptown girl and wasn’t powerful enough to go up against Mariah. Not to

mention they were currently in Onza-Mariah’s territory, which meant she

was above the law.

Mariah’s facial expression was extremely arrogant at the moment.

Mackenzie couldn’t help but sneer when she saw the prideful expression on

that woman’s face. As the CEO of Terence Group, I naturally know a thing or

two about the grand hotels in the nearby cities of Yeringham. Besides, the

owner of this hotel is an acquaintance of mine. Regardless of her job position,

she is merely an employee here. Yet, she’s now acting superior and brash!

How ridiculous!

“Madam Lofis, you can keep my salary. So, how about we end this matter

here?” At this very moment, Emmanuel had lost interest in claiming his

hard-earned money. All he had in mind was not to put Mackenzie out. Forget

it! I’ll just treat that money as contributing to this Zora woman’s medical bills!

Otherwise, even if I can defeat all these security guards here, it will still lead

to a series of troubles later if a fight fully breaks out.

“Hmph! So, now you admit your mistake?”
