Mackenzie had noticed that Terence’s health was deteriorating as the days passed, so she wanted to spend more time with him.
Terence was extremely pleased when he learned that Emmanuel had sealed a contract with Summerton Corporation. “Haha, excellent! My son-in-law is making progress! Why don’t you join Terence Group and support Mackenzie?”
“Well…” Emmanuel glanced at Mackenzie.
After having a heart-to-heart conversation with Terence, he had a change of plans. Currently, all he wanted to do was find a way to join the Chamber of Commerce using the Quillen family’s connections. That way, he would be able to get in touch with Teddy, the president of the Chamber of Commerce.
So, if Mackenzie agreed to let him join Terence Group, he would be more than willing to assist his wife. It didn’t matter that he had little to no experience in the business world.
“Since you have brought back a business contract worth more than 150 million, I will appoint you as the deputy executive of the Commerce Department!”
Mackenzie saw no reason to oppose Terence’s decisions as she had long wanted Emmanuel to join the Terence Group. His inclusion into the company would only make it easier for him to accompany her to work.
“Alright, then.”
Emmanuel did not refuse his offer this time.
“Haha, I’ll leave you young people alone. I’m going back to my room to rest!”
Terence’s attitude had completely changed as he no longer wanted to deal with business matters. So, he stretched his limbs before slowly getting up from the couch.
Marilyn hurriedly approached him with a cane.
However, Terence simply said, “Marilyn, rest well. We’ll have a good chat when you’re feeling better!”
“Old Mr. Quillen, let me help you!”
Marilyn insisted on escorting him back to his room.
Terence saw no reason to object.
Emmanuel and Mackenzie watched this scene in silence.
Although Mackenzie found Marilyn annoying, she believed that her grandfather had a plan in mind. Besides, he had already made it clear he wasn’t going to interfere in the affairs of the younger generation. So, what right did she have to criticize his business?
Moreover, although she was wary of Marilyn, the girl hadn’t done anything wrong yet. So, she couldn’t just attack Marilyn like Ms. Hannah did!
“How did your sister and Julian get along tonight?”
Now that they were the only ones left, Mackenzie started asking Emmanuel about Roselynn’s love life.

Her cold demeanor had unconsciously softened over time. She was gradually learning to take the initiative to show concern for her family!
However, she hadn’t realized this change herself.
“Well, Roselynn is still refusing to give Julian a chance. Her stance hasn’t changed even though he publicly defended her by fighting Jaxton tonight. It seems the trauma she has experienced is preventing her from taking the first step,” Emmanuel said.
Mackenzie nodded as she analyzed the situation, saying, “That’s understandable. She feels that they aren’t compatible due to their different family backgrounds. Besides, Roselynn isn’t wrong to think that marriage can be a burden. Ever since she suffered at the hands of the Oatleys, she now has a fear of wealthy families. To make matters worse, the Summerton family is even more powerful than the Oatley family. Since she doesn’t have the courage to pursue a serious relationship with Julian, she has decided to suppress these emotions! She believes that as long as she can make those emotions disappear, she won’t have to think about marrying into wealth and enduring the burdens that come with it.”
Emmanuel agreed, “Mackenzie, you might be right. But I really hope that Julian can be there for Roselynn and overcome all the obstacles they face together. I can tell that he genuinely likes her!”
Mackenzie smiled, but the smile quickly faded.
Truthfully, she wasn’t sure if it was the right decision to matchmake Julian and Roselynn!
Sometimes, when she was feeling particularly stressed, she couldn’t help but think that married life was more burdensome than it was worth. When that thought crossed her mind, she would start to feel tired of being tied to Emmanuel.
Unfortunately, she was so committed to this marriage that she couldn’t even entertain the thought of leaving. Emmanuel. In the end, she could only agree with Emmanuel and work together to overcome all their difficulties in life!
“Do you know why I appointed you as the deputy executive of the Commerce Department in the Terence Group?” Mackenzie asked suddenly.
Emmanuel shook his head.
“Well, I suppose it’s going to be quite shocking news then. Ms. Hannah has transferred all her 70 million shares of the Terence Group!”
“What?”
Emmanuel felt sorry when he heard those words!
Mackenzie didn’t need to explain further as he knew Ms. Hannah’s decision was related to the slap Terence gave her.
Of course, it was also related to him marrying into the Quillen family.
Emmanuel had read those popular son-in-law novels in recent years. After the male protagonist married into the family, he would be looked down upon by his mother-in-law and his wife’s relatives. Then, he would retaliate fiercely and prove that he wasn’t just a freeloader who relied on his wife.
However, he soon realized that his experience marrying into the Quillen family was completely different from those novels’ protagonists!
However, he soon realized that his experience marrying into the Quillen family was completely different from those novels’ protagonists!
His mother-in-law didn’t give him a hard time.
His wife supported him from beginning to end.
Although a few of Mackenzie’s aunts didn’t want him to stay in the Quillen family, they rarely mocked him or looked
down on him.
Even now, the aunt who disliked him the most, Hannah, voluntarily left the Quillen family instead of seeking him out and causing trouble!
