Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

“Don’t worry. As long as the Five Poison Sect values their lives, they won’t dare harm Mrs. Lowe and her child,” Magnus said with unwavering confidence.

No one understood Isabella’s psychological tactics better than he did.

However, he also knew that while it was easy for him to make rational decisions as an observer, Mackenzie might not think the same way if she found out her son was truly kidnapped. In her desperation, she might make a wrong choice.

Lexi and the other women fell silent.

If they were in Mackenzie’s shoes, they wouldn’t know how to decide either. On one side lay a greater cause, while on the other was a personal, irreplaceable bond.

A mother would most probably prioritize her child above all else.

“What about after two days?”

Anna understood Magnus‘ intention to buy time, but she knew the Five Poison Sect wouldn’t let them drag it out indefinitely.

“We can only hope that Emmanuel finds the child within two days.”

Magnus hadn’t spoken with Emmanuel, but he didn’t need to. He could easily predict that Emmanuel must already be taking action.

Meanwhile, Sage led a hundred elite troops, tracking the kidnappers via surveillance footage to the outskirts of Riverhaven.

“Surround the villa ahead.” From his helicopter, Sage surveyed the terrain and issued orders.

The small village lay nestled between two mountain slopes, with only two accessible routes leading in and out. Encircling it would be straightforward.

Having served as both a reconnaissance leader in the Wolf Warrior and a long–time criminal investigator, Sage’s skills in tracking were unparalleled in Chanaea.

He was certain the culprits holding Caden had entered the village, likely with a significant number of accomplices.

Inside the village, within a modest house, a young woman in her late twenties cradled a baby while teasing him at the dining table.

“Oh my, what an adorable little boy!”

The woman, Jeff Besoz, was Ken’s sister–in–law.

Her appearance rivaled Lenore’s, but her youth gave her the advantage of a fuller figure and radiant, collagen–rich skin.
