Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore
Chapter 1658

Upon hearing this voice, most people present were stunned.

Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw Alfred supporting the heavily

injured Terence as they walked in.

Everyone’s expression instantly froze.

“Grandpa!”

“Dad!”

“Old Mr. Quillen!”

No one had expected that Terence was still alive.

Gautier quickly suppressed his surprise and glanced at Mackenzie. Judging

from her expression, it seemed she didn’t even know that Terence was still

alive.

“Mackenzie, please don’t blame me.” Only then did Emmanuel speak up. “In

fact, I’ve known that Grandpa didn’t die. It was all part of my plan to let

Ashton cooperate in acting. The goal was to expose all the villains in the

Quillen family. Of course, Grandpa and I had discussed this earlier. The

person who called that morning when we were still on Badlands Island was

Grandpa.

Mackenzie glared at him with a complex expression.

She had long known that Terence was cunning, but she couldn’t believe that

he had the audacity to deceive her. She wouldn’t let this off easily.

“Haha! I’m fine. All thanks to Alfred for protecting me so desperately. I won’t

die, so don’t worry

Terence waved his hand, reassuring the Quillen family members.

Marilyn, who usually stayed by his side, was unusually slow to react. It took

her a while to approach and tremulously say, “Old Mr. Quillen, it’s really great

that you’re alive…”

“You b*tch! Aren’t you ashamed to say that?” Samantha couldn’t bear it any

longer. She delivered a fierce slap across Marilyn’s face.

Marilyn covered her face in fear.

“It’s fine. Marilyn is still young and easily deceived. After all, she once risked

her life to save me. Spare her.”

Terence was cunning but not totally kind. Nevertheless, older folks like him.

usually had a soft spot for children.

Marilyn was not yet nineteen. She was still naive about the world and easily

manipulated by others. The mastermind was certainly not her.

Mackenzie caught the hidden meaning in Terence’s words. She immediately

questioned coldly, “Marilyn, who instigated you to do this? Tell the truth, and I

can spare you on behalf of Grandpa. Otherwise…”

Coordinating with Mackenzie, Emmanuel suddenly exuded a murderous aura.

As the new Grandmaster and the Northern Region War God, his imposing

presence was not something ordinary people could withstand.

“L… Mary’s fear was palpable as she was exposed.

After all, she was just a country girl. She lacked the courage and boldness of

a businessperson, no matter how cunning and ambitious she was.

Previously, she had tagged along with street racers to build up courage. Now,

she realized that the battles of the upper society were far more dangerous.

than the thrilling rush of street racing.

Even Shane watched this scene emotionally. Red is so kind and gentle. Why is

her sister so different in character?

“I’m the one who arranged everything. Just as Emmanuel and Mackenzie

awaited Marilyn’s confession to seal Gautier’s fate, Lara unexpectedly stood

up and confessed voluntarily.

She even challenged Térence as she said, “Why is there such a big difference

in treatment between us granddaughters? I could have married into a

wealthy family. Are we inferior to Emmanuel and Mackenzie?”

At that moment, Mackenzie finally realized the depth of Lara’s admiration for

Gautier, which far surpassed her admiration for herself.

She could even become an enemy to her own family for Gautier.

Gautier was truly terrifying. His brainwashing techniques were top–notch.

Emmanuel had the same thoughts. Now, he only hoped that Gautier had

nothing to do with all these matters. Otherwise, with both him and Terence

setting the trap, ending up only dealing with Lara and Marilyn seemed a bit

useless.

Terence just sighed without responding.

Mackenzie’s eyes turned cold as she rebuked directly, “Lara, do you know the

consequences of admitting to being the mastermind? You attempted to

murder Grandpa. You’ll be facing prison time. I’ll give you one last chance

now. Tell me, did you plan everything?”

“Yes.” Lara didn’t hesitate to declare loudly. “I planned everything, discussed it

with Marilyn, and arranged the car bomb. It was all me.”
