Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 2208 Why Experience Always Wins!

Not just the assassins–even Frederick was caught off guard by the sudden change in direction.

This isn’t part of the plan!

“Hahaha!” Terence burst into hearty laughter the moment he saw Frederick’s stunned expression. “Frederick, if you didn’t expect this, imagine how those b*stards chasing us must feel right now!”

Despite his age, Terence clearly still enjoyed outplaying his enemies. The mere thought of their shocked faces sent him into fits of laughter.

Frederick, however, remained confused.

Shane, on the other hand, smugly stepped in, acting as if he had it all figured out. “Heh, I saw through this from the start! The moment I noticed that I didn’t recognize a single one of the representatives, I knew Old Mr. Quillen was pulling a classic decoy trick!”

Of course, Frederick already knew that much.

The real representatives had already set off toward Zovince in separate vehicles. Sure, traveling by road was slower than taking a plane, but with Terence and the Wolf Warrior Unit drawing all the attention, they’d slip past any enemy blockades unnoticed.

But one thing still didn’t make sense to him. “Old Mr. Quillen, I understand why we used decoys, but why did we suddenly turn around? Couldn’t we just continue heading toward the airport?”

Before Terence could answer, Shane smirked. “You really don’t get it, do you, Frederick? If we kept heading straight for the airport, we’d get there too quickly. But by leading them in circles, we’re buying more time— keeping them occupied so they can’t chase the real targets!”

“Haha, exactly!” Terence confirmed with a chuckle.

Shane, feeling immensely proud of himself, quirked a smug brow at Frederick. “Good thing we’re not love rivals. With my superior intellect, you wouldn’t stand a chance!”

Frederick rolled his eyes, unimpressed. While he would admit that Shane was a little quicker on the uptake, when it came to looks and height? No contest–he had the clear advantage.

“But Shane isn’t all right,” Terence continued, still amused. “Buying time is just one reason. The bigger issue is Gautier Verkade. If he’s working for Tanner, there’s no way he sent just one squad after us. He must have planned for multiple layers of ambushes, ensuring we never make it to the airport alive.”
