Chapter 923 Rhea’s Mischievous Side Resurfaces
Unexpectedly, the phone rang again, and it was Juan on the line.
“Hey Manny, tomorrow at noon, can you visit Luxoria Hotel? The female patient will be waiting for you there!”
Juan also didn’t mention anything about compensation, for Emmanuel likely wouldn’t ask for a fee either after meeting the patient. Of course, it never crossed Emmanuel’s mind either; he was just helping out the doctor as a favor.
“Sure!” he readily agreed.
After hanging up, he told Alessandra, “Mom, it turns out Dr. Gomez asked me to help treat a female patient. The one who called earlier should have been his wife. It seems there was a mix-up in the notification.”
“I see,” Alessandra replied, relieved. However, she couldn’t resist offering a piece of advice, “Manny, now that you’re married to Mackenzie, you can’t mess around with other women. Otherwise, if you make her angry, you’ll be hearing from me!”
“Mom, don’t worry! Do I look like that kind of person?” Emmanuel chuckled. If he were the type to fool around with women, he wouldn’t have gone on eighteen blind dates!
Alessandra thought about it and agreed. She decided not to nag her son any further.
Emmanuel noticed some unread messages on his phone and opened them. He was excited as he read the messages, and he told his mother, “Mom, Mackenzie said she has arranged Roselynn’s blind date!”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Really? What is the guy’s background?” Alessandra was even more excited; she had been waiting for this for days.
“I heard he’s Mackenzie’s personal secretary’s cousin. His name is Julian Summerton. All I know is that he’s into photography and comes from a wealthy family. That’s it,” Emmanuel replied honestly, as he had never met the man.
“Oh, I trust Mackenzie’s judgment. It surely won’t be a disappointment!” Alessandra had complete faith in her daughter-in-law; she was very reliable.
“Well, I trust Mackenzie’s judgment too. But I heard this guy is quite busy lately, so we might have to wait until the day after tomorrow for him to come to Yeringham.”
“In that case, we’ll have to wait two more days. I need to inform Roselynn right away!”
After their conversation, Alessandra couldn’t care less about lunch and went to call Roselynn. Emmanuel sighed; it seemed that this time, his sister would likely have to go through with the blind date.
On the other side, after returning home in the evening, Juan also informed Rhea about the arranged date by Hannah, making the young woman frown. “Why another blind date? Dad, are you in such a rush to kick me out?”
“Hey, watch your words,” Juan replied with a stern expression. “This is a kind gesture from Ms. Hannah. She says the man is quite a catch, and you’ll definitely like him. If you dare refuse to go, I’ll be very upset!”
Rhea had no choice but to grumble and retreat to her room, closing the door behind her.
“Hmph, bring it on! The more you introduce, the more I’ll scare away! Let’s see who gets the last laugh!” she muttered to herself, clearly annoyed.
Her unconventional cooking last time, which she used to scare off her date, ended up victimizing Emmanuel, and it mortified her while also making her aggrieved. She blamed it on the “blind date” mishap.

“Hmph, this time I don’t care who you are, try my Rhea’s special dark cuisine!” Rhea said with determination.
She knew that her dad would probably praise her cooking in front of the date again. But the date was at the Luxoria Hotel. How was she supposed to showcase her culinary skills? Her only way to impress her date would be to prepare a lunchbox in the morning and bring it along. As long as it didn’t poison him, she hoped it would make him wary of her.
“Hehe…” As she thought about it, her naughty side resurfaced. She realized that blind dates could be quite entertaining, allowing her to play tricks while being completely unapologetic.
