Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 2123 Delving Deeper

“It’s nothing major.”

Emmanuel responded casually, “I just dealt with Magnus. Now, the Zelinsky family is teaming up with the Lannister and Tanner families to come after me. Let them try, though.”

“That’s what you call ‘nothing major?“”

Mackenzie immediately grew anxious. “The Big Four wields immense power. Now, three–quarters of them are after you. They must be desperate to eliminate you. Your situation in Zovince is extremely dangerous!”

“Don’t worry.”

Emmanuel waved her concerns off. “I hold the rank of a 5–Star Honored Battle General. If they want to use legal means against me, they’ll need authorization from the head of state. If they try to take me out covertly, who among them is my match?”

While his words were confident, Mackenzie glared at him through the screen. “I know you’re impressive! But as your wife, not some starry–eyed fangirl, I hope you’ll stay cautious. Don’t let them catch you off guard. If anything happens to you, what will become of me and our child?”

“Haha…”

Emmanuel couldn’t help but laugh.

But despite his amusement, he nodded seriously. “Mackenzie, I understand. I’ll make sure I’m fine. You need to do the same. When dealing with the Five Poison Sect, don’t take unnecessary risks. Don’t put yourself on the front lines. If something happens to you, what will happen to me and our son?”

“You idiot! Did you just quote me back at myself?”

Mackenzie glared at him with mock anger, her expression fierce as if she wished she could reach through the screen and give him a good smack.

But soon enough, her demeanor shifted, and she turned serious. “Speaking of the Five Poison Sect, we’ve located the Serpent King’s base and are planning to wipe them out. Magnus suggested you arrange for some large–scale weapons to bomb the place entirely.”

“That’s actually a solid plan.”
