Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 1922

Chapter 1922

Emmanuel smiled again. “Of course, you’re someone very important to me.”

“How important?” Claudette suddenly asked, catching him off guard.

Emmanuel hesitated, momentarily stunned. Before Claudette regained

consciousness, he could easily speak his mind. But now, he found himself

unsure of what to say.

“Hehe, just kidding. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to,” Claudette

said with a lighthearted smile. “I know you just became a father; you must

love your missus dearly. So, you should maintain boundaries and keep your

distance from other women.”

If anyone else had said those words, Emmanuel wouldn’t have given it much

thought. But hearing them from Claudette gave him a strange sense of

melancholy, as if the world had changed overnight.

“You should rest,” Emmanuel said after a moment, unsure of how to engage

like the Claudette he once knew.

“Goodnight!” Claudette smiled warmly, her expression soft and endearing. But

At that, Claudette lay down, pulling the covers over her head like a child,

trying to push away the lingering feelings.

The next morning, Emmanuel prepared to lead the Blade Battalion toward

Eldoria.

“Emmanuel, when you find Roselynn, make sure to let me know right away. I’ll

take good care of Caden while you’re gone,” Mackenzie said softly, holding

his hand as they said their goodbyes.

“I will. If anything happens, make sure you tell me right away too,” Emmanuel

responded seriously. With his mother gone, his wife and child were now his

entire world.

“Don’t worry, the Wolf Warrior Unit you left behind isn’t here just for show, and

your wife isn’t helpless either! Once I’ve recovered, I’ll take charge of the

Julian grinned, unfazed by the criticism. “But Roselynn is Emmanuel’s sister.

It’s normal for me to lose to her, and I heard she’s beaten him 17 times

without losing once! Could you do that?”

“You!” Ashton huffed, clearly annoyed. “You’re good at nothing but arguing!”

“At least it’s better than being completely useless. And I can take photos,

can’t I?” Julian grinned as he snapped a shot of his sister’s irritated

expression. But after the click, his face turned serious as he stared ahead.

“What’s wrong?” Roselynn noticed the sudden change in his demeanor.

“I think I just caught a shadow of someone in my photo,” Julian said with a

frown, quickly checking his camera.

Though no person appeared in the photo, the movement of the tree

branches suggested that something–or someone–had indeed been there.

The three of them had ventured into the Ancient Woods of Eldoria to escape

being hunted…
