Chapter 1288 Admiration

Unexpectedly, Mackenzie’s jade finger was about to press down!

Stone was frightened and quickly pushed her away before taking a step back.

“Ms. Quillen, please don’t act recklessly!”

At the critical moment, a melodious voice sounded.

The door was suddenly kicked open, and a black figure rushed toward Stone!

Was it Emmanuel?

.61@

With this unrealistic thought, Mackenzie didn’t press the detonation button after all. She believed that

the other party had come to save her.

But when she saw the appearance of the black shadow clearly, she was disappointed.

It turned out to be Blake!

“D*mn it! I hate scum like you who take advantage of women through force and play with them without

any skil!!”

After knocking Stone down, Blake stepped on his tools and spat at him.

He had been with many women, but it was all consensual! The night he captured Saintess, he also

wanted to develop feelings with her slowly. If he wanted to take advantage of her, he could have done it

multiple times that night!

“Ms. Quillen, life is precious. Your husband is still waiting for you to go back. If you die, how sad will he

be? And what about your family and Terence Group? What will happen to them?”

Hattie stood at the door while persuading Mackenzie not to take her own life.

She seemed genuinely concerned!

Mackenzie looked at her and sneered. “Ms. Zelinsky, you’re afraid that if I die, you won’t get the Heart

of the Sun and that you won’t be able to bear the wrath of Emmanuel and the Quillen family, right?”

“Think whatever you want.”

Hattie didn’t explain or refute. She simply said calmly, “When you’re dead, you have nothing, right?

Think about my brother, a man who was so intelligent and held a position above everyone else, but

after his death, he lost everything, too.”

“Ms. Quillen, you were once so influential that even I envied you. Isn’t it a pity to fall so low? Besides,

don’t you still have many grand visions in your heart? You haven’t given birth to a baby for the Quillen

family and Emmanuel yet, have you? How heartbroken would they be if you died?”

Her words indeed struck at Mackenzie’s weak spots.

Mackenzie could die for loyalty, but she didn’t want to die, and she certainly didn’t want to die with a

single-minded desire for death!

“Let’s talk. Perhaps we don’t have to be enemies.” Hattie extended an invitation and showed her

sincerity and bargaining chips. “Your driver’s name is Wally, right? He’s still alive.”

Her words indeed struck at Mackenzie’s weak spots.

“Let’s talk. Perhaps we don’t have to be enemies.” Hattie extended an invitation and showed her

When Mackenzie heard that Wally was alive, another weak spot was hit. Wally had been with her for so

many years. He was loyal and devoted. If there was a chance, she really wanted him to survive!

“Let’s go. The two of us women can perhaps have a heart-to-heart conversation.”

Hattie turned and walked away while exuding confidence and a calm demeanor like a majestic queen

who believed that no one would defy her will.

After some thought, Mackenzie finally took the detonator and followed Hattie.

Blake kicked Stone hard and spat on him. “You scum! Just wait until I tell your wife! You disgraceful

piece of trash!”

With that, he left.

They kidnapped Mackenzie for a grand plan, but all the chaos caused by Stone made them look like a

gang of bandits, tarnishing the reputation of the Zelinsky family and Hattie herself.

Soon, Mackenzie and Hattie were alone in a room.

There were no bodyguards around, only Blake and Dominique guarding the door.

Mackenzie was surprised. What was Hattie trying to do? Wasn’t Hattie afraid of any harm coming to

her in this room alone with Mackenzie?

Could Hattie really be a formidable fighter and pose a threat to her, given Hattie’s weak and sickly

body?

“Ms. Quillen, I truly admire and envy you,” Hattie said before turning away from Mackenzie.

“You admire and envy me?” Mackenzie raised an eyebrow and chuckled. “If anyone else said that, I

wouldn’t doubt it, but for the esteemed Ms. Zelinsky, one of the Four Beauties of Zovince, to express

such sentiments, isn’t it a bit… contradictory? When it comes to wealth, beauty, family background, and

even youth, what makes you inferior to me?”

After all, these were the factors that could lead one woman to admire and envy another.

Hattie turned around while smiling at Mackenzie without a trace of hostility. No one could tell that these

two were kidnappers and victims; they might even think they were a pair of best friends with good

looks.
