Chapter 1268 Dowry

Marianne’s perception of Mackenzie’s demeanor conveyed an unmistakable sense of superiority. She compared Mackenzie to a regal figure perched atop a pyramid, casting her gaze down upon others with an air of entitlement.

“Ah, Mackenzie, Beatrix, you’ve finally made it!” Roselynn greeted them warmly.

Mackenzie acknowledged Roselynn with a slight nod before turning her gaze to Marianne. “And who might this be?”

Roselynn quickly said, “She is Tia’s mother. We brought her here to attend the wedding.”

Tia, who was getting her makeup done, quickly stood up and said nervously, “Ms. Quillen, my mother spoke out of turn. Please… please don’t mind!”

Her heart raced with guilt, regardless of whether or not Mackenzie caught her words. After all, Emmanuel was Mackenzie’s husband-what if she misinterpreted Tla’s intentions toward him?

Without delving further into Marianne’s comment, Mackenzie turned to Roselynn, inquiring, “Did Ryder hastily marry Tia? Has the dowry not been settled yet?”

Roselynn responded, “Mrs. Franks just arrived. I was just about to present it.”

“Leave it to me.” Mackenzie gestured dismissively and then turned to Lexi, instructing, “Prepare a bank card with 280 thousand.”
