Chapter 2010 The Terrifying Bandits

Chapter 2010

“Mr. Quail, I’ve donated a significant amount of resources. Is it too much to

ask for a tracking system to ensure the supplies are reaching those in need?”

Mackenzie’s tone grew firm.

Seeing that he couldn’t simply push her away, Anthony resorted to stalling.

“Ms, Quillen, you’re adding to our workload! We’re already short on staff, and

you’re making things even more complicated.”

Mackenzie chuckled. “That’s perfect! I’ve brought my own team along. If

you’re short–staffed, they’re more than capable of stepping in. In fact, they’re

highly experienced, so there’s no need to worry.”

“Uh…” Anthony hesitated, clearly scrambling for another excuse,

Mackenzie’s eyes suddenly hardened, and she asked coldly, “Mr. Quail, are

you hiding something? If you keep stalling, I’ll have no choice but to expose

this mess to the public. Then you’ll be facing a nationwide backlash.”

Anthony was left speechless, trapped by her resolve. Mackenzie was not

someone to be trifled with. No wonder she’s managed to climb to the top of

the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce!

Unable to dismiss her, Anthony feared Mackenzie might see through his act.

He tried to excuse himself, but Rhett stopped in once again, leaving him with

no way out.

“Mr. Quall, we’re just trying to ensure the disaster relief efforts are honest and

fair. We won’t stand by and let the supplies be siphoned off by corrupt

hands,” Mackenzie said, her gaze sharp.

“Mr. Jidrus Abovos already told me that hardly any of the supplies have

reached Riverhaven. If this blows up, you won’t be able to contain the fallout.”

“Well… Um…” Anthony finally broke under the pressure and sighed heavily. “Ms.

Quillen, I’ve been forced into this! Those supplies weren’t stolen by me–they

“Bandits?”

Mackenzie’s brow furrowed, still not fully convinced.
