“What's going on?” Emmanuelasked immediately.

Beside him, Mackenzie clenched her fist. If anyone dared to harm her Quillen family, it meant war, and she

wasn't about to let

that slide!

“I'm not entirely sure, but he said to attend the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown tomorrow and everything will

becclear. He also mentioned it’s the free-for-all tournament tomorrow!” Ashton relayed the message.

She had almost gotten into it with someone named Mr. Tanner earlier, but without evidence, and considering she

was investigating in a personal capacity, she refrained from confronting Aidan. Given the Tanner family’s

influence and prominence, if she dared to act against Aidan impulsively, she could risk losing her position

afterwards. So, she could only be held back from resorting to violence!

After hanging up, Emmanuel wanted to rush to the Tanner family and deal with the issue immediately. “How can

we wait until the next day? Who knew how Aidan would treat Beatrix?”

But just as Emmanuel started to rise and plan to find the Tanner family, Mackenzie suddenly felt dizzy!

Emmanuel had to abandon his plans and quickly support Mackenzie, asking with concern, “Mackenzie, are you

okay?”

“I... I'll be fine. Mackenzie said softly, but she looked unwell.

“Letcheck your pulse,” Emmanuel suggested, feeling a strange suspicion.

Besides sstomach problems, Mackenzie had always been healthy. Suddenly feeling dizzy was new since

their marriage!

“Could she be pregnant?” Emmanuel thought in his mind.

“No need,” Mackenzie declined firmly. “Maybe | just need srest. I'll go lie down and | should be okay.”

She also didn’t know why she didn’t want Emmanuel to know about her current condition even in this tense

situation.

At the stime, she hoped he would rescue Beatrix now instead of worrying about Mackenzie!

But how could Emmanuel not worry?

With Chloe’s health concerns, he could only stay hand have Eve send someone to find Beatrix.

But there was no update all night.

The next day, with Beatrix still missing, despite it being the weekend, Mackenzie had to oversee the Hadley

factory’s reconstruction herself, managing things on site. The Titan Group's project was crucial to the Quillen

family, no room for

mistakes!

Emmanuel stayed with Mackenzie, waiting for news from Eve and Wally.

And without evidence that Beatrix was in danger, they had to wait 24 hours before investigating!

By evening, neither Eve nor Wally had received any news. Onza was so vast, and they were not police officers.

Finding someone in such circumstances was too difficult.

After Emmanuel and Mackenzie reported the case to the authorities, they had no choice but to go to tonight's

free-for-all tournament at the boxing ring, as per Aidan’s instructions!

The Quillen family was also participating in the Grand Martial Showdown. Because of their tarnished reputation

and not being members of the chamber of commerce, they didn’t have the sprivileges as the Silverbane

family and Chapman family according to unwritten rules.

Emmanuel and Mackenzie guessed that the competition to advance to the next round would be intense at the

beginning and end of the preliminary rounds. So, they decided to register for the 17th day of the preliminaries

based on their instincts.

based on their instincts.

Emmanuel had already been registered for the 17th day by the organizers, so even if there was open registration

tonight, he wouldn't have a chance to compete!

Of course, Emmanuel wasn’t there to compete tonight. They were there to watch Aidan’s moves!

“Emmanuel, Mackenzie!”

“Ms. Quillen!”

As they approached, they heard Shane and Frederick calling from behind.

“We've been waiting for you! What's up with Beatrix?”

“Yeah, we gotta make sure the safety of Ms. Beatrix. If anything happens to her, we can’t let Mr. Tanner off the

hook!”

Shane and Frederick knew about Beatrix because Emmanuel had told them. That's why they'd been waiting at

the arena’s entrance early in the morning, unable to go in but waiting for Emmanuel and Mackenzie to show up.

Seeing their worried faces, Mackenzie was surprised. “Did they really care so much about Beatrix? Did Beatrix

have such a close relationship with them?” Mackenzie felt curious. “Why did it seem like they both acted like

Beatrix’s significant others?”
