Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 408

Alessandra responded anxiously, “I heard it was self-defense, but now he has

disappeared! It was as if he had vanished into thin air!”

“How could it be?” Roselynn shared the same nervousness, unable to believe

that her typically honest and upright younger brother would commit such an

act.

Could there have been some kind of misunderstanding?

“I don’t have the details either!” Alessandra hurriedly added, “Roselynn, should

we go to the police station and ask around? I’m not quite educated, so we’ll

rely on you and Jaxton to talk to them.”

Before Roselynn could respond, Jaxton immediately interjected, “Mother, it’s

best not to do that! Murder is a serious offense, and if the police haven’t

contacted you, we’ll only make fools of ourselves if we intrude without

permission.”

Jack’s wife, Alina, chimed in swiftly as well, “Exactly! But I heard that

Emmanuel’s wife is a really capable person. Let her save Emmanuel!”

Those words were rather a sarcastic remark than an actual suggestion.

Jack promptly responded, “Oh, Alina, you don’t know anything, so please don’t

speak without thinking! Emmanuel and his wife are divorced, so she probably

won’t care!”

“Is that true?” Alina pretended to be surprised. “Why wasn’t I told about this?”

Roselynn’s murderous intent rose as she observed the couple’s exchange. As

she was a witness to Jack’s growth since childhood, she naturally understood

his character. He was always fond of boasting about his accomplishments,

trying his hardest to outshine his two cousins. So, when he learned that

Emmanuel had married a wealthy and beautiful woman, immediately

casting a large shadow on him, of course, he felt displeased.

Is the reason for their invitation today to gloat over our misfortune?

“Roselynn, why would Emmanuel be so foolish as to divorce Ms. Quillen?”

Jaxton feigned regret but was truly dancing with joy. He had a better

understanding of Mackenzie’s true identity than Jack’s family; she wasn’t just

any typical beautiful and wealthy woman but the eldest daughter of
