Chapter 228
As expected of Grandpa, he knows my wife better than anyone else. When
Emmanuel checked the time, he was surprised it was that late already.
“Alright, Grandpa, stay safe. Let me know when you get home. Gotta go now!”
As soon as he finished his words, he quickly went back to his Maserati and
headed home. He believed Mackenzie had most likely locked the door since it
was already past 11.00PM. After all, he had been forced to sleep outside a few
times now just because he had missed his curfew.
“Haha. What’s wrong with my grandson–in–law? His prowess was unrivaled
when he was fighting, yet he was afraid of my granddaughter. I guess even a
tiger can match her in terms of intimidation!” Terence laughed about what
he said, only to sigh a few seconds later.
The next moment, Alfred emerged from the darkness in the night and jokingly
said, “It looks like you’re concerned that Ms. Mackenzie would take things a

little too far with him. Are you afraid that your grandson–in–law can’t handle
her?”
“Exactly!” Terence sighed and reacted with a long face. “Well, you sent four
men to rob me, so what do you expect?”
Alfred responded with his head down, “It was all my fault, Old Mr. Quillen. But it
seems to me you were enjoying the show, though.”
“You’re technically right, but it was also a little embarrassing. After all, that
guy just defeated four of my experts, which is going to embarrass the Quillen
family if word about it gets out.”
“But what if people find out he is the Quillen family’s grandson–in–law?
They’re going to think that the Quillen family has grown stronger, don’t you
think?” Alfred made his point heard, his words resonating with Terence’s mind
as if he could read his mind.
“Indeed. That’d be most wonderful! Now, all that’s left is to see whether he

can handle Mackenzie. If he can, my future great–grandson will certainly be
such a badass. Haha!”
By the time Emmanuel drove home, it was already past midnight. When he
reached the seventeenth floor and tried to open the door to his home, he
realized it was locked. Damn it! It’s locked!
He paced back and forth outside the door, seemingly pondering over
something. Do I have to settle down outside? Or should I give Mackenzie a
call for her to open the door? In that instant, an idea came to his mind, and
he decided to call Mackenzie. If the call goes through, she’ll open the door for
me; if it doesn’t, she is probably asleep, which means she has no intention of
letting me into the house. If that’s the case, I’ll just sleep outside, then.
Unfortunately for him, his call went unanswered. Thus, he believed Mackenzie
must have slept and thought he shouldn’t disturb her anymore. A few
moments later, just when he was about to make his way to the long bench
downstairs and settle down there, a bright light suddenly shone from behind
him. Donning white pajamas, Mackenzie stood at the doorway in all her glory
and asked, “You wanted me to open the door, but now you’re heading
downstairs to settle down there?”
Emmanuel quickly turned around and immediately noticed the unhappy look
on her face, which made his heart sink. “I’m sorry, Mackenzie! I didn’t know the
auction would take so long!”
“Auction?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe woman knitted her eyebrows because he didn’t tell her anything earlier
that night. Thus, she had no idea where he went. When the door was open,
she immediately noticed the marks and bruises on his arms that indicated
he had just been in a fight, which irked her even more. Did he get into a fight
over another woman or something? Therefore, when Mackenzie heard that
he went to an auction, she stood behind the gate and asked, “What did you
do in the auction? Did you go there to fight or something?”
Emmanuel quickly explained, “I only got into a fight because someone tried to
rob your grandfather. So, I had to step in and stop things from turning ugly. I
didn’t start it first….” Deep down, he understood why his wife was so angry at
him; after all, he had already gotten into four fights in the same month of his
marriage.
“So, you went to the auction with my grandpa?” Mackenzie had a bad feeling
about this. Grandpa must have abetted Emmanuel in conducting mischief
again. No way! I can’t let him in, or he is going to act up!
Emmanuel had no idea what she was worried about, only nodding his head
and saying, “Yeah, we did, and I got you a present, so would you please open
the door?”
