Ch. 1561..1570
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1561-As expected, Ruben easily defeated his opponent, who coughed up black blood, with just a few moves.
Emmanuel was somewhat surprised. Ruben’s skill seemed noticeably stronger and more cunning than when they had sparred before. How did he manage to improve his
strength so quickly?
What puzzled Emmanuel even more was that many restrictions seemed to be lifted fo the finals. In the preliminary rounds, killing opponents would result in disqualification, but this restriction was lifted for the finals. Not only that, but Emmanuel also noticed.
that Ruben’s palm strikes were poisoned, but the organizers seemed oblivious to it, tacitly accepting it.
“Haha, winning money is quite easy!” Frederick and Shane both clapped their hands, having won a thousand each. After watching the match, they could enjoy supper without worry.
High Stakes அடி “How can you guys get so excited about winning just a little?” Beatrix glanced at the screens on their seats, feeling a bit smug.
At that, the two quickly glanced at her screen and exclaimed, “Holy sh*t, you won over ten thousand!” “My, you’re rich!” Curious, Frederick glanced at Mackenzie’s screen. He had seen Mackenzie also plac bet earlier. I wonder how much she won. When he saw the string of numbers, he was so shocked that he slumped onto his seat, pointing at Mackenzie, unable to speak.
“O-One million?!” Seeing the amount Mackenzie won, Frederick was dumbfounded and trembling with fear. He never thought that Mackenzie was such a daring gambler.
Shane also gaped, unable to say anything for a moment. Rich people sure make money so easily! Within less than a minute, a million went into her pocket!
High Stakes Mackenzie, however, remained expressionless. The betting screen for the next match appeared, and she immediately bet everything again. It wasn’t that she was addicted to gambling; in fact, a million meant nothing to her. Even if she lost a billion, she could afford it.
The Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown was ultimately about gaining power.
Emmanuel’s goal was to win the title of Grandmaster, while she aimed to win the title of the highest earner in this event.
In the first match, she believed the ambitious Eshal Silverbane would win the match for e, so she went all-in. As for the second match, she planned to bet as much as sure, possible because the next one to appear was Luna. At this moment, Emmanuel had already left the Quillen family’s area and was on stage wearing a wolf mask.
“Luna Moone! Luna Moone!” “Grandmaster! Grandmaster!” High Stakes “Chapman family for the win!” 11 The cheers from the audience below were even louder than those supporting Ruben just now. It was because Luna was the only S+ Rank fighter rated by the organizers, and he was also a promising fighter representing the Four Great Aristocratic Families of Zovince!
Almost half of the audience believed that he could help the Chapman family wi title of Grandmaster! His odds of winning were also 1.01, but unlike Ruben’s oppor who was only A+ Rank, Luna’s opponent was an S- Rank fighter.
It was known that there were only 19 fighters rated S- Rank and above. If this fighter
dich't face Luna, the probability ofm advancing to the top 32 Woufd still be promising.
Even the former Grandmaster Wyatt Lannister, who was present in the audience, was closely watching this talented fighter from the Chapman family. He knew very well that the Chapmans were definitely wealthy enough to hire a formidable fighter to participate in the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown.
beauties, have you, you cuckold of a married woman!" Luna's lépponent!!
High Stakes “Luna Moone? Huh, what a name. You haven’t taken such a name to covet the Quillen
soon as he appeared. He wasn’t just trying to tactically provoke his opponent; it was what he genuinely thought. He was annoyed by Luna’s high popularity.
Luna glanced at him, a young fighter with superior talent bubto. arrogant and talkative.ignoring him, the young man sneered contemptuously, “You were an S+ Rank fighter. The Chapmans must’ve bribed the organizers good, huh? In n opinion, your strength is inferior to mineWhoosh!
Before he could finish his trash talk, the bell for the match rang, and Emmanuel suddenly leaped into action.
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1562-“Impossible!” The expression of the young man changed instantly, his proud’demeanor disappearing in an instant, replaced by terror.
Actually, he had watched Luna’s match recordings before and thought he was indeed impressive, but he didn’t think Luna could overpower him by so much. He thought that
by provoking his opponent in advance and finding his opponent’s flaws, he still chance to counterattack. Now he realized how naive he had been. Luna directly s him flying off the stage with just one palm strike.
Boom!
Finally, when the young man fell outside the ring and lost his qualification, Luna scratched his head and said, “Sorry, what did you just say? I didn’t catch it… The young fighter’s face instantly flushed, and his cheeks burned. He knew very well that-Luna had spared him just now, Otherwise, that move would’ve cost him his life.
Unforeseen Twists The deafening cheers erupted instantly from the audience below, with 80% of the people celebrating Luna’s victory. The shouts for Grandmaster resounded again and again. Mackenzie also followed suit and applauded continuously.
Beatrix and the several older Quillen ladies were astonished. They knew Mackenzie very well. She shouldn’t be so enthusiastic about unrelated people. Could it be because of the name?
“Mackenzie, aren’t you worried Emmanuel would be jealous?” Beatrix whisp Mackenzie.
Mackenzie snorted, “I dare him to try! A ton of women have a crush on him. I dare him to have any opinions of my admiration toward other men!” Beatrix thought her sister had a point. She knew a number of the women too.
For example, Claudette, the Paradise’s escort, Ashton, and… um… herself? You know what?
I should just shut up.
Unforeseen Twists Not long after, the missing Emmanuel returned to his seat. Except for Mackenzie, everyone thought he had just gone to the washroom.
The next matches began to be a bit abnormal. Except for the first two matches, which were easy wins, the outcomes of the later matches became extremely difficult to predict. Frederick and Shane lost all the money they had won and even more. It seemed like they would have no money left for supper that night.
At the same time, they were curious if Mackenzie had also lost badly t dismay, she hadn’t bet on any other matches since the first two. It wasn’t Mackenzie had any inside story but that she always played it safe. She wouldn’t any fighters who were close in strength or had no hope of winning the championship she wanted to win the title of best better, not losing a single bet was more important than winning money. Because losing one round meant she would need to win many rounds to make up for it, and not betting meant winning many rounds!
As the matches in the upper half of the draw progressed, the beautiful receptionist at Unforeseen Twists the ferry suddenly appeared behind Joe and whispered a few words in his ear.
Joe.
quickly stood up and instructed the receptionist, “Don’t refuse him, and don’t provoke him. Wait for my signal to let him enter the stage!” “Yes, Mr. Wallace!” The receptionist hurriedly went to make arrangements.
Joe then left his seat and quickly entered the VE room backstage,"
where the president of the Martial Arts Association and Levi were sitting together.
The president of the Martial Arts Association, Horace Adkins, was a middle-aged ma whose age was hard to discern. He had a faint beard and looked serious, with an assertive aura.
“Mr. Adkins, the representative player from Onza Tanner, Yosef, has arrived at the venue. Should we let him on stage to compete?” It was a major and urgent matter, so Joe immediately asked for instructions, not having time to consider Levi.
Unforeseen Twists Horace glanced at Levi and asked, “Mr. Lestrange, what do you think?”
Yosef's identity was special, ang 19, was a fugitivefor the run. f he was allowed on
stage, it would definitely cause a huge controversy. But if someone higher up helped block it, such matters wouldn’t affect the Martial Arts Association at all because suppressing such matters was too easy for the real upper echelons.
“Mr. Adkins, what is your purpose for hosting the Nuthana Grand Martial Sho Levi deliberately asked back.
"Of course, it is to provide an exciting martial arts eyent for the martial arts enthusiasts
of Nuthana!” Horace replied solemnly.
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1563-Mackenzie’s words infuriated Rustin. However, she did not take what he said seriously and just sat down in silence, not even deigning him with a response.
Darn it!
When he saw that Mackenzie’s face had returned to an indifferent expression once
more, his anger burned even brighter. He roared, “Everyone, if you wan bet, go all out on Bronco from the Zimmerman family! No matter how low I guarantee you will all win big!” Huh?
No one understood where Rustin’s confidence came from, as the organizers had already announced the odds.
Rustin could sense the odd gazes directed toward him, and he frowned.
Swift Defeat Even Linda could not help gesturing with her eyes for him to look at the screen.
Shoot! What’s going on?
Emmanuel’s odds were 1:1.2.
Bronco’s odds were 1:4.
“Hahaha! Zigler, your contestant’s odds are quite high, but none of us dar him.” From the front, Nathan let out a mocking laughter, adding fuel to the fire. “He definitely won’t win. Not even if the odds are 1:40,000.
Upon seeing the dark look on Rustin’s face, the crowd around him laughed as well.
Not only that, but the amount of money being bet on Emmanuel continued to rise while his odds were reduced. It was clear evidence that no one had faith in the Zimmerman Swift Defeat family.
“This is ridiculous! You’re a bunch of fools!” Rustin was beside himself with fury and burst out cursing.
The family had an intention to bet more money on Bronco so that his odds would be lowered, making themselves look less humiliated. However, due to the upper by the organizers, every person could only bet 250,000 at most.
Linda had also bet 250,000 for the Zimmerman family’s sake. It was all for spite.
The Zimmerman family could lose to anyone but the Quillen family.
Compared to the panicked and frenzied energy that rose among the Zimmerman family, the Quillen family was extremely calm and composed.
Mackenzie had already bet five million on Emmanuel when his odds were at their Swift Defeat highest.
Beatrix and the others were slightly slower, but they also dumped five million into the bet.
When Frederick and Shane looked at the numbers listed, they realized just how modest and stingy their bets looked in comparison.
“Darn it! It’s possible for anyone to cheat us out of our money, but Em Some never do that to us. I’ll borrow more money,” Shane cried out.
“Me too!” Frederick responded.
They instantly shot to their feet. They could earn a million in the blink of an eye.
They could not miss out on this opportunity.
“Tee-hee! I’ll loan you the money.” Swift Deicht Beatrix had been ready the entire time. It was good for everyone to share in the profit.
Thankfully, there was still enough time. Once the two men were done betting all of their money on Emmanuel, the competition started.
“Bronco, kill Emmanuel! Crush the Quillen family!” As he was annoyed by Mackenzie. With his personalities formed in a rather c vulgar environment, Rustin instantly started shouting down toward the stage.
“Darn it! She is just some country bumpkin from a small town Yeringham! Does she really think she’s all that? Everyone knows she’s just a socialite. Tonight, the Zimmerman family will tear you into pieces and snap you back to reality.” Upon hearing that, Emmanuel, who had planned to hold back as respect for the organizers, abruptly changed his mind.
Swift Defeat As both Emmanuel and Bronco were rated S- everyone was eagerly anticipating a ferocious battle.
Although Emmanuel had a slight advantage, it still would not be an easy win.
To the crowd's surprise, as soon as.
the bell rang, Emmanuel lappeared Out of thin air
before Bronco’s eye. Bronco had still been responding aloud to Rustin when that happened.
“How is he so fast?” Bronco unwittingly let out a loud shout from shock.
Emmanuel did not hit hard, but the hit was enough ta gatel hislopponent"
Smack!
the one punch sent Bronco soaring through the air.
Bronco attempted to fight back as he fell to the ground but Emmanuel sent him falling
down again with a sweep of his leg.
“Hey, hey, hey! Stop!” Bronco kept shouting in shock. Emmanuel is a sly fox! How can he be so audacious as to purposefully launch a surprise attack?
Smack!
In the end, Bronco tumbled out of the ring.
“Hahaha! That was three seconds on the dot, Beatrix triumphantly said with a laugh.
50000 She had been keeping track of the time.
Rustin’s agitated expression had yet to fade away. How was it over so soon?
The crowd around him felt awkward as well.
Even if they forgot about the money they lost their face.
Whatever. It was better for them to make a swift exit. After all, everyone around here only recognized Rustin, not them.
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1564-“In that case, why refuse the Onza Tanners’ participant? He didn’t violate any qualifications for the Grand Martial Showdown, did he?” Levi smiled, his attitude already evident.
“You have a point, Mr. Lestrange,” Horace responded respectfully to Levi’s words. Still, he said to Joe, “Take me to see that participant!”
“Yes, Mr. Adkins!” Respecting Levi was one thing, but the Martial Arts Association was definitely not subordinate to the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce. Horace, as the head of the association, absolutely couldn’t blindly follow Levi’s advice and cause a big mess.
Regardless of Yosef’s identity, even if he was a fugitive, Horace didn’t care. But he had to make sure that Yosef was mentally stable. Otherwise, if he lost control after going on stage and started killing people, they, as the organizers, would find it difficult to bear The Unexpected Challenger such responsibility, as such incidents had happened before. After all, martial artists.
falling into madness was a common occurrence.
Levi also followed the two to a backstage room and met Yosef.
To be honest, after seeing him in person, Horace found it hard to connect Yosef with a fugitive. He looked so clean and refined, with a somewhat literati demeanor.
“Are you Yosef?” President Horace asked, staring at Yosef, who nodded silently.
“The Tanner family of Onza has fallen. Why do you insist on competing?” Horace continued to question. He needed to confirm whether the man in front of him was mentally stable and what his motives were.
Yosef’s gaze grew increasingly icier. In the past, he wouldn’t have bothered to lie. He had come here openly and specifically to kill Emmanuel. But before he could speak, Levi gave him a profound look as if silently hinting something to him.
The Unexpected Challenger Yosef didn’t know Levi, but he was smart enough to understand the meaning behind that look. Eventually, his haughty expression softened, and he spoke, “I want fame and fortune. I want to earn the title of Grandmaster!” A very mundane reason. But Horace nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, you can go on stage.” Yosef didn’t respond further, not even a thank you.
After carefully observing him again, Horace turned and left. As he left the room, his heart was also surging. For so many years, he had never seen a master with such a strong demonic nature. Perhaps this year’s Grandmaster would be stronger than any Grandmaster in the past three decades. As a martial artist himself, he couldn’t help but anticipate.
Meanwhile, at the arena, the matches were in full swing, and the atmosphere remained heated without any dull moments. But the Quillen ladies suddenly became nervous and excited. Beatrix couldn’t help but stand up and shout towards the stage, “Beat them to a pulp, Emmanuel!” Emmanuel’s match had finally arrived.
It wasn't that the organizers deliberately cause@treuble.byom plabing the Zigler family's
viewing area right behind them; it was divided based on theistrength of the fordes, and
Upon hearing his sister-in-law’s cheer, Emmanuel, who was about to enter the stage, looked over. Even Samantha and her sisters were cheering him on enthusiastically.
Whether they liked Emmanuel or not was one thing, but they definitely their family like Hannah.
Shane and Frederick naturally shouted their lungs out for Emmanuel.
tray Although Mackenzie didn’t shout, the meaning contained in her shimmering eyes was completely conveyed to Emmanuel. Emmanuel smiled at Mackenzie, indicating that she didn’t need to worry at all.
Mackenzie assured her family, “Don’t worry, Emmanuel will definitely win!” The Unexpected Challenger Her voice was not loud.
the Zigler family should indeed be behind them.
Rustin, who had been watching Mackenzie all along, was immediately irritated by her words. Now, hearing her speak up, wished he could mock loudly with a “Haha, you’re doomed, Quillens! You think you can win, huh? Huh, dream our fighter teach your husband a lesson!”
Although the atmosphere in the arate many a is out voice stin
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1565-“Wow, the Quillen family’s fighter is truly amazing!” “The Quillen family is destined for victory!” The arena echoed with the excited cheers of the crowd.
In all honesty, the identity of the champion did not matter to the average pe The person who helped them win their bets would be their hero.
As for those who lost money betting on Bronco, they only cursed at the Zimmerman family. No one would ever direct their ire at Emmanuel for being too strong.
“Well fought.” Emmanuel saluted and left the stage.
He looked calm and nonchalant as if he had only vanquished a minor foe, as if this were nothing extraordinary since it was all in a day’s work.
His demeanor was another humiliation for Bronco.
Among the crowd, Bronco was still dazedly mumbling to himself, saying, “H-How was he so fast? That’s not logical!” Angela and Ronnie had been applauding Emmanuel’s victory, but they soon stop.
That was because Stanley had walked over with a sizable entourage behind him.
Bobby and Blaze were among the group.
The mayor of Onza was there, too.
The grave look on Stanley’s face made Angela sense that something big was about to happen.
“Ronnie, it will soon be your fighter’s turn to get on the stage. Where is this Beowulf guy?” Bobby had spoken with a laugh.
“He’s warming up.” Angela swiftly interjected on behalf of her father.
“Warming up? Where is he warming up?” Ruben, who was standing behind Bobby, spoke up with a sneer, saying, “I was just at the preparation area for the fighters, and he wasn’t there.” They did not need to acknowledge what Ruben said.
The Eshal Siverban However, the mayor actually spoke up then. “Mr. Ronnie, I know just how powerful Eshal Silverbane’s fighter is. Now, I am eager to get to know the fighter of the Silverbane family of Onza. Would you be willing to do me the honor?” “Well…” Ronnie had a conflicted look on his face. Emmanuel had just finished his last round.
Who knew where he was now? How was Ronnie meant to look for Emma ong the crowd?
Angela’s forehead was covered in a sheen of sweat. Had Emmanuel’s true identity exposed?
Wait!
As an astute woman, la soon deduced the truth.
As long as Stanley did not say anything, Bobby and the others could not have known that Beowulf was actually Emmanuel. However, that group of people knew the Silverbane family of Onza very well. They absolutely knew that there was no fighter asContents belong to NovelDrama.Org powerful as they claimed in the Silverbane family in Onza.
Furthermore, Beowulf always had a mask on. Thus, Bobby and the others had guessed that Beowulf was a fighter who fought for another party as well. Thus, they should not know who Beowulf really was. At the very least, they could not be certain about his identity.
“Well? Won’t you?” The mayor repeated himself with a frown.
“T-That’s not it.” Ronnie hurriedly waved his hand in a negative gesture as beads of sweat formed on his brows.
As a member of the Silverbane family in Onza, there was no way he could disrespect a political heavyweight in Onza.
However, he could not just order Beowulf to show himself.
Angela realized she had been careless. She should have arranged for a body double, but she had not expected such an abrupt turn of events.
Why had Stanley not informed her of this ambush beforehand? Was all of impromptu development?
“Ronnie, if you’re willing to do the mayor the honor of introducing Beowulf, tell your best fighter to show himself! We still have more important matters to discuss, and they concern him.” Bobby was giving his brother extra stress once more.
In his eyes, Ronnie had not been his brother for a long time. Instead, Ronnie was the biggest obstacle on his climb to the top.
Ronnie was still thinking of an excuse he could use.
However, Bobby refused to give him any chance to think and swiftly continued, “Are you hesitating because he’s an outsider you asked to help out at the last minute so that you’re not humiliated? In reality, he doesn’t fight for Onza, does he?
Both Ronnie and Angela flinched upon hearing that.
They were doomed!
If that information were confirmed and made public, how could they compete with Eshal Silverbane? Their entire family might even become a laughingstock!
“Someone asked for me?” Just then, a familiar voice rang out from behind them.
Angela turned around, and the weight on her shoulders was instantly gone.
It was Emmanuel in a mask.
After he had helped the Quillen family move onto the next round as Emmanuel, there was no need for his true identity to stay for the rest of the night. Thus, he put on the mask and made his way to the Silverbane family of Onza. To his unexpected arrival proved to be useful to the family.
“You are Beowulf from the Silverbane family of Onza? You really are remarkable!” The mayor of Onza had a discerning eye and could sense the formidable aura Emmanuel exuded.
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1566-It was Bobby and his family’s turn to have unpleasant looks on their faces. They were just about to reveal the true form of the Silverbane family of Onza, but Beowulf had arrived just in time.
Just who was he?
“You flatter me, Mr. Mayor.” Emmanuel had met the mayor of Onza before. After all, he had discussed the prominent figures that would appear today as he walked into the arena. Thus, he now raised his arms in a salute as he asked, “What business do you have with me, Mr.
Mayor?” “Mr. Beowulf, are you certain you are the fighter for the Onza Silverbane family?” The mayor asked once more to confirm Emmanuel’s identity after Bobby had said.
Winner Gets the Com “Of course!” Emmanuel adopted a cold and haughty demeanor. “Angela isn’t just my employer, but she’s also a good friend of mine. Naturally, I will fight for Onza Silverbane with all my strength.” “Haha! Well, congratulations to the Onza Silverbane family for becoming a great fighter.
I wish you all the best at the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown.” The mayor did not mind Emmanuel’s arrogance and politely wished him well getting to the point.
“It’s like this. There’s a significant municipal project coming up in Onza, and we’re looking for the most powerful businesses to collaborate with. After some internal deliberation, we have decided the Silverbane family is our best choice. The Eshal Silverbane family is willing to take on the project, but President Silverbane wants everyone to have an equal chance. I am here to inquire if Mr. Robbie is interested in Winner Gets the Contract taking on the project.” Robbie was shocked.
A municipal project in Onza was not just a very lucrative venture, but it would also be at project that would greatly improve his family’s reputation.
If the project was successfully completed, it would strengthen his family politicians of Onza while giving the family much more weight in the upcom for the next president of the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce.
he This was something that he knew, and even Emmanuel, who had only just stepped foot in the business world, knew. They knew full well that whoever won the contract would.
have succeeded by 80% in the next election.
“We are!” When Angela saw Robbie’s silence was going to last, she hurriedly spoke up on his Winner Gets the Contract behalf. “The Onza Silverbane family is very interested in collaboration with the government on this project.” “Hahaha! That’s good.” The mayor was happy with that response and turned to grin at Stanley. “Old Mr.
Silverbane, both your sons are interested in your project. What should I do now?” “Mr. Mayor, the Eshal Silverbane family is stronger than the Onza Silverban every aspect. Everyone knows that. Of course, you’ll be choosing us!” Blaze was very blunt and obvious in his attempt to fight for the right.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org “However, the Onza Silverbane family operates in Onza. Shouldn’t a municipal project in Onza be awarded to the local enterprises? Otherwise, people will say that Onza’s businesses are failures.” Winner Gets the Contract Angela was a smart woman, so she quickly interjected with a retort.
“Both arguments are valid. How about this?” The mayor smiled and continued, saying, “Since the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown is ongoing, and I’m a martial arts enthusiast myself, I will entrust the project to the winning Silverbane family. How does that sound?” “Well…” Ronnie and Angela were surprised.
They had told Emmanuel to prioritize the Quillen family with their family being a casual side project. It was all so that they did not put any pressure on him.
However, they could not easily give up on this great opportunity for the family.
If the Eshal Silverbane family were awarded the contract, that side of the family would only grow more powerful If the Quillen family did not win the competition, then the future president would be Bobby.
“Very well. We accept that condition” Of course, Bobby happily agreed to it Blaze, Ruben, and the others behind Bobby were equally excited as well.
The pressure was now on the Onza Silverbane family Before they could say a word, Bobby chuckled “Ronnie, if you don’t want to compete, you can just give up. Otherwise, if you lose in the end, you’ll only be laughed at.” “I agree to the condition!” ter Winner Gets the Contract Ronnie was actually not a competitive man, except for when his brother was involved.
He especially did not want to lose to Bobby.
The brothers had fought and competed since they were young. Ronnie had only moved to Onza to start his own business because of a fight with Bobby.
He would not care about a challenge from anyone else, but a challenge from Bobby would have him instantly accepting it.
“Hahaha! Good. That settles it then.” The mayor instantly sealed the deal and even said with another laugh, “My anticipation for the outcome of the Grand Martial Showdown just keeps rising.” Stanley let out a soft sigh but remained silent the entire tim
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1567-Stanley understood that Ronnie had no choice but to accept the challenge as refusing to do so meant accepting immediate defeat.
Next, it was up to Emmanuel’s performance.
After the group left, Angela pulled Emmanuel aside backstage before the mate started.
“Mr. Lowe, I apologize on behalf of the Onza Silverbane family for any trouble this may cause you.” She bowed deeply in a show of respect.
Her overly deferential demeanor made Emmanuel slightly uncomfortable.
“Just fight as you have initially planned. No need to bother with us.” How She Envied Mackenzie Angela continued when he did not speak.
However, he patted her on the shoulder and said in a tone that made them seem like they were friends, “I promise you that I will do my best.” Angela was touched by his promise, and her eyes shimmered.
NOVEL DRAMA While she was the precious daughter of the Onza Silverbane family, she wa average woman in front of him.
It was an overwhelming shock and joy for her to hear her idol promise her that.
How she envied Mackenzie for being the object of this man’s affection and love.
“I’ll be heading back then, Mr. Lowe.” “Alright.” How She Envied Mackenzie After bidding Angela farewell, Emmanuel put on his mask and got ready to head toward the fighters’ preparation area. Suddenly, he sensed movement outside the room.
“Who’s there?”Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org Emmanuel’s sudden appearance startled the person outside.
It was Beatrix!
“Ms. Beatrix, why are you here?” Emmanuel was secretly shocked.
He knew that she only arrived outside the room after Angela left, which meant there was no way she could have overheard his conversation with Angela.
Still, should she not be in the viewing area? Why would she suddenly be here?
How She Envied Mackenzie “Mr. Beowulf, I’ve missed you so much!” Beatrix could not contain her overwhelming emotions and threw herself into his arms.
She looked up at him with twinkling eyes.
“Didn’t I tell you I’m married?” Emmanuel hurriedly pushed her out of his arms.
How could he act in such a way with his sister-in-law?
There was no way.
It was absolutely impossible!
“I like you though. What can I do? Why don’t you ask your wife if she’s willing to take me in as a sister? We can both be with you.” How She Envied Mackenzie As Beatrix said that, she held on tight to his hand. Finally, her anxious heart calmed down.
There was no doubt about it.
This man is Emmanuel!
Just before he went up on the stage, she high-fived him with a hand that sh secretly smeared with a specific type of perfume.
Right now, she could smell the same fragrance on this man’s palm. She could also se the pale pink glint that came from the perfume.
Who else could he be but Emmanuel?
He was still putting on an act. He never returned to the Quillen family’s area after leaving them. Then, the Onza Silverbane family’s Beowulf appeared. It was such an obvious flaw in his act.
How She Envied Mackenzie 企业 However, she still pretended to be ignorant of that fact. In her heart, she knew that if the truth was spoken, she would not have the courage to go against the morals of society to openly say she liked him.
When Emmanuel heard what she said, a dark look descended on his face.
Beatrix was Mackenzie’s sister already. What was there to ask about?
“Don’t say that nonsense. We can only be friends at most. I am just a crude m not worthy of “I think you are worthy, though.” Emmanuel’s soft rejection could not deter Beatrix at all.
“Well, you are unworthy of me. My wife is even more beautiful than you. She would not want you as a sister.” How She Envied Mackenzie He realized he had to be harsher. Otherwise, this would never end and become even messier.
“I don’t believe it! Let me meet your wife. I want to ask her in person.” Beatrix held her head up high as she let out a haughty huff.
Ha! Mackenzie was her sister. How could Mackenzie not accept her as a sis However, being a mere “sister” was not all Beatrix meant when she said that. She meant it in a different way. Beatrix wanted to tease Emmanuel as payback for saving her while concealing his identity.
It even made her fall in unrequited love with him!
Hmph! She would never forgive him.
Emmanuel was perplexed for a moment before he swiftly said, “Ms. Beatrix, I don’t have How She Envied Mackenzie time to chat right now. I have to compete soon. Excuse me. I need to head to the fighters’ preparation area.” “Very well! I wish you the best of luck in achieving the title of Grandmaster. Then, I can become your concubine with pride!” Beatrix shamelessly exclaimed.
Love At The Wrong Table Chapter 1568-fft!
Emmanuel nearly spat up the blood in his mouth, resisting the urge to rip off his mask and reveal himself before daring her to repeat those words in front of her sister.
However, he chose to slip away, realizing he couldn’t keep up the charade any longer.
Finally getting rid of Beatrix, he made his way to the prep area via a hidden passage, which was deserted, unlike the bustling competition venue, as it was strictly off-limits.
to regular folks.
Emmanuel caught faint footsteps ahead, but no one was in sight.
Clearly, an expert fighter was using stealth! He tensed up immediately. Who has sneaked into the prep area? What were they up to? And who were they targeting?
“Hey, what’s got you staring?” Blake’s voice surprised Emmanuel from behind.
Distracting Teddy Both Mackenzie and Beowulf’s names were so obvious that Hattie and Blake knew Emmanuel was using a nickname!
“Someone found a way in.
Emmanuel and Blake had warmed up to each other the closer Mackenzie and Hattie got. After all, Emmanuel hadn’t sided with Magnus when Claudette took the plunge, so there wasn’t any bad blood between them!
Blake was curious. “Who’s got the guts?” Soon, they heard a scuffle on the other side of the prep area.
Emmanuel and Blake, both top fighters, watched from the shadows instead of jumping in and found a lower-level contestant about to enter the arena being held captive by masked men. This was Callum Cavent, who represented a small family and supposedly facing the fake Wolf Warrior that night. The giant choking Callum was familiar too and Distracting Teddy was most probably the superfighter Nathan had brought, Brent Overton, who had a rough time against Yosef’s elixir field! Emmanuel was sure the other two masked guys.
were from the Chapman family, too.
What is Nathan plotting now?
“Sir… please, spare me!” Callum begged, scared out of his wits. With an A+ Rank, he stood no chance against the masked guy, likely an S- Level.
• cave! “Follow my orders, and you’ll be safe. Disobey, and even the king Got it?” boomed the giant. Callum nodded frantically. “You’re up against the Wolf Warrior tonight, who is also Mr. Chapman’s Master and way stronger than me! Got it?” the giant boasted. Distracting Teddy Callum went pale. He ouldn’t handle this guy, let alone someone dominant and a hundred times stronger like the Wolf Warrior. He couldn’t possibly measure up! “S-Should I give in?” “No! You’ll go out and beg for mercy.

He had never imagined winning, so surrendering and begging for mercy for his life seemed inconsequential. Pleased with his compliance, the masked men allowed him to move on to the preparation area but were subdued by Emmanuel and Blake working in tandem before they could go. “It’s me! Don’t worry!” Emmanuel used his own voice, as there was no need to pretendContents belong towith his allies. Distracting Teddy Brent recognized him and stopped struggling, realizing there was no use. “What does Nathan want? Why has he sent you to threaten the participants?” Emmanuel went straight to the point. The superfighter leaned in to whisper, “Mr. Chapman said Teddy has sent men to the showdown to unmask the Wolf Warrior!” What?! Emmanuel was secretly shocked. If Teddy knew who he was, things would get dicey. “So, Nathan’s helping you hide behind the fake Wolf Warrior to distract Teddy!”

Blake burst into laughter, ready to speak, but Emmanuel shot him a threatening gaze.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org “Haha, Beowulf, your title’s almost the same as the Northern Region war god! Wanna switch it up? If the Wolf Warrior catches wind, you might have a real mess on your hands!” Blake was usually smooth with words being a Romeo, but Emmanuel sighed, “True!
Wolf Warrior’s the world’s top dog. I think he’s the real deal for this showdown! Wonde if it’s too late to change my name now?
