Chapter 597
“I have no idea,” Emmanuel replied solemnly while shaking his head. His
relationship with Mackenzie was initially just a means to deal with his
mother’s arranged marriage, and his actions toward her were not driven by
her wealth.
Magnus neither laughed nor doubted him, but rather, he said with a tinge of
envy, “It seems you genuinely love Mackenzie. Congratulations on obtaining
the most precious and elusive thing in this world.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
That thing was love!
Emmanuel neither confirmed nor denied it. He chose not to respond to
Magnus‘ words.
“For you, the most valuable thing in the Quillen family is undoubtedly
Mackenzie’s affection. There’s nothing more priceless than mutual love.
However, for outsiders like us, there are two other things.”
At this point, Magnus‘ words completely piqued Emmanuel’s curiosity.
Having been inside the Quillen residence, Emmanuel knew that Felicity had
been continuously searching for the Quillen family’s possessions, which had
caused dissatisfaction and aversion from the Quillen family members.
However, Emmanuel had no idea what Felicity’s ultimate goal was. Perhaps
he could find out from Magnus today.
“One is the Energy Diagram of Nine Palace, and the other is called the Heart
of the Sun,” Magnus revealed without hiding anything. “These are both
semi–finished products developed by the Quillen family in the field of energy.
One is a technology, and the other is a product. However, the Quillen family
abandoned them halfway and kept these two items with unlimited
commercial value hidden away. As long as you can-‘
“I’m sorry. I refuse!” Emmanuel immediately cut off Magnus as soon as he got
the information he wanted.
Since he and Magnus would forever be enemies and could never become
friends, why would he waste time talking to such an enemy?
A trace of displeasure flashed in Magnus‘ eyes, but after making eye contact
with Emmanuel, he curved his lips into a smile. “You’ll agree sooner or later.
I’m not in a hurry!“;
Emmanuel became even more repulsed after seeing his confident
expression.
Laura appeared not long after Magnus left the hall.
Laura was dressed in a fiery red spaghetti–strap dress, which exuded a
feeling of underwear worn on the outside. Her flesh–colored silk tight–fitting
garment enveloped her chest but revealed her belly button adorned with a
plum blossom decoration, like a charming and alluring gaze from a young
lady.
The key areas were covered and she did not reveal an inch of bare skin, yet
still exuded an incredibly sensual appeal.
There was no doubt that this woman excelled in this aspect!
She was simply enchanting!
“Dr. Handsome, you finally came! My daughter and I have been waiting for
you,” said Laura, her tone devoid of the previous hostility, but it made
Emmanuel quite uncomfortable.
He knew that she was only a few years older than him, but in terms of
seniority, she was Claudette’s mother.
Which man would feel comfortable being flirted with by a friend’s mother?
“I’m here to see Claudette.”
“Oh! That’s great! I was afraid you’d forget about my daughter. Come. Let me
take you to see her,” Laura said enthusiastically while taking hold of his wrist.
He felt extremely awkward and subtly freed his hand from the clutches of this
enchanting woman.
“Hehe…” Laura chuckled without showing the slightest embarrassment.
Soon, Emmanuel once again stood before Claudette and found Magnus also
by her bedside.
“Dr. Lowe, please take care of Claudette!” Magnus had a completely different
expression when he saw Emmanuel again, as if he had never seen the latter
before!
That was the terrifying aspect of Magnus the Genius!
“Who are they?” Emmanuel approached and noticed that the nurses taking
care of Claudette were different from before.
Laura’s expression also seemed somewhat strange.
“They are medical staff specially hired from Zovince. They are very
authoritative and well–known in Zovince,” Magnus replied with a smile.
“Claudette is my princess, and I will make sure she survives.”
Upon seeing his smile, Emmanuel didn’t feel any affinity but rather a sense of
horror.
This man was a smiling demon. He was a dark knight!
“All of you, leave!” Emmanuel commanded firmly.
Adolph was not present at the scene today, and Laura looked a bit hesitant.
