Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 538

The guards‘ contemptuous tone gained a frown from Emmanuel. Arrogant,

are they? They think we’re lowly beings.

Sarah, however, was being nice. She smiled sweetly and said, “We came all

the way here for a search. If you’ll help us, we’ll reward you.”

“Reward?” The guards were still being arrogant. They mocked, “You can’t

-begin to afford what we want. Leave, or we’ll make you.”

Emmanuel and Sarah exchanged a look. They thought the guards were being

a bit too full of themselves, as if they were gods passing judgments on

mortals, and as if Emmanuel and Sarah were maggots.

“If money’s not what you want, we have gold. As long as you help us, we can

give you that.” Sarah was still smiling. She was a beautiful and regal woman,

and men would line up just to give her gifts. If the men were the ones

receiving gifts, they would probably die from happiness.

However, the guards were unfazed, and they were starting to shove

Emmanuel away. “Last time. Leave, or you’re dead meat.”

Emmanuel was caught off guard by how strong the guards were, and on top

of that, he was carrying Sarah on his back, so he fell down. Sarah fell with him,

and she let out a scream as her wounds worsened.

“Sarah, are you alright?” Emmanuel quickly turned around to check on Sarah’s

wounds.

Sarah’s clothes were torn again, and her palms were covered in blood. Her

wounds tore open, and blood trickled to the ground. “I–I’m alright.” Sarah

smiled, not showing any weakness.

Emmanuel closed his eyes and clenched his fists. When he stood up again,

he looked at the guards with fury. “Apologize, now.”
