Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

“Roselynn, what are you doing? It hurts!”

When Roselynn stepped out after changing, she was

shocked to discover that her brother had a band–aid

on his body and a bandage on his back. She couldn’t

help but impulsively reach out and give him a slap on

the shoulder.

Emmanuel was a living, breathing human being, and it

was only natural for him to cry out in anguish when he

was unexpectedly struck by sudden pain.

Alessandra had been engrossed in matters regarding

her daughter–in–law and paid no attention to her son.

Belatedly realizing he had been concealing his injuries,

she asked anxiously, “Manny, how did you get hurt?”

Not wanting his family to worry, Emmanuel lied, “Don’t

worry, Mom. I accidentally fell down, that’s all.”

“Fell down? This is a lie. You obviously got hurt. Did

someone hit you or throw something at you?”

Roselynn snapped. Her voice grew increasingly

agitated as she demanded, “Manny, be honest with

1. me. Did your wife beat you? Is this domestic violence?”

Emmanuel nearly coughed out blood in exasperation.

He quickly replied, “Roselynn, how could you think that

way about my wife? This has nothing to do with her!”

He couldn’t bring himself to say that Mackenzie hadn’t

hit him, since she had quite obviously kicked him twice.

His waist was still aching as a result.

“Manny, be honest with me. How did you get hurt?”

Emmanuel was Alessandra’s only son, so she was

determined to get to the bottom of things. She was

afraid that her son’s stubborn pride would prevent him.

from confiding in her.

“Some scoundrels tried to take advantage of

Mackenzie, so I fought with them and ended up getting

hurt,” Emmanuel explained. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

He wasn’t entirely fabricating the story as the ruffians

were indeed stirring up trouble on Mackenzie’s project.

She was the reason he had to fight them.

“Oh, I see. Good job, Manny! I love that you’re so

protective of your wife!” Roselynn relaxed and gave

him the thumbs–up.

After all, the male leads in TV dramas were all manly.

“It’s almost time, Roselynn. Let’s go!”

Emmanuel didn’t want to hear his mother’s nagging

and instantly changed the topic by urging Roselynn to

leave.

Alessandra grabbed his arm and said, “Manny,

remember to find Roselynn a good man at the party.

He doesn’t have to be rich as long as he’s a person of

integrity!”

A mother knew her daughter best. Naturally,

Alessandra knew why Roselynn was still single and

unmarried despite being in her thirties.

Before arranging blind dates for Emmanuel, she had

already introduced a lot of men to Roselynn.

Alas, Roselynn was harsh in her criticism of all those

men, declaring that none of them measured up to the

male leads of her favorite television shows. She said

they were either too short, too ugly, or too meek.

Naturally, all those men were scared out of their wits

and quickly made their escape.

If she was unwilling to be flexible and open to different

possibilities, she would never get married, ever.

“Got it, Mom,” Emmanuel hastily replied.

Finding Roselynn a suitable husband would be a more

difficult task than finding me a wife.

The siblings hailed a taxi and went on their way.

Throughout the journey, Roselynn was already

swooning over the possible eligible bachelors at the

party.

HOW DID You Get hurt

“Manny, have you heard of the four prominent families

in Yeringham?”

“Yeah.”

Emmanuel nodded and gave a cursory reply, but he

knew that the four prominent families of Yeringham

didn’t exist.

This was not a television show, so it was impossible to

determine the number of families in Yeringham that

were involved in commerce.
