A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO

Chapter 2012 Luring the Enemy

"This time, it might not be possible!"

The bandit leader with the felt hat frowned. "They've got serious protection

now, and not just one expert. If we go head-to-head, we might lose. Better to

live to fight another day. Once these experts leave, we can strike the next convoy."

Though the henchmen felt disappointed, they knew all too well the dangers of their line of work. One wrong move and it could be the end of the road for them. So, despite the missed opportunity, they agreed with their leader's

cautious decision.

Down at the base of the mountain, Rhett quickly leaped back into the vehicle,

leaving Anthony and the others in awe.

They had never seen anyone with such agility and skill before.

to hold her ground.

"What's the situation up ahead, Rhett?" Mackenzie immediately asked. Rhett leaned in and whispered in her ear, “Your Holiness, there are indeed bandits in the mountains. I caught two trying to blow up the road, but I took care of them. From what I can sense, there are at least a few hundred more

hiding in the hills, though they don't seem eager to make a move." Mackenzie's expression turned serious. She nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Rhett."

Rhett simply stood tall behind her, folding his arms as he resumed his watch

like a stone statue.

"Ms. Quillen, what should we do now?" Anthony asked nervously, still shaken at the thought of bandits.

"It's fine. Let's keep moving. No one's going to rob us," Mackenzie replied calmly.

Hearing her confidence, Anthony let out a small sigh of relief, though he was

still on edge. It wasn't until the entire convoy had passed through the

treacherous pass that he could finally relax.

"Ms. Quillen, we really owe you for this! With your people here, those vicious bandits didn't dare make a move," Anthony said, visibly relieved.

In truth, he wasn't a corrupt official or a schemer. He had only been trying to protect his position and reputation after the last supply convoy had been robbed. That's why he had resorted to some underhanded methods to cover

jt up. Now, with this shipment safely en route to the disaster-stricken area, he

felt his troubles were behind him.

But just as he was feeling optimistic, Mackenzie suddenly spoke up. It's

getting late, and pushing forward through the night isn't safe. Let's rest for a
