Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

"Alright, since everyone has nominatedto lead, I'll take charge and form this anti-bandit alliance!" Mackenzie had anticipated this outcfrom that night's banquet, so she didn't hesitate, showcasing her leadership skills. “Our alliance's slogan will be: Eradicate the bandits, clear the trade routes, boost West End's economy, benefit the people!" As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd erupted like a military assembly, echoing the slogan.

"Eradicate the bandits, clear the trade routes!" "Eradicate the bandits, clear the trade routes!" Quintus and Rhett had been at the banquet the entire time, keeping an eye on Mackenzie for her protection. Quintus, seeing this display of support, couldn't help but smile, his eyes filled with admiration. “Heh, as expected from the woman I love. She's so captivating! Wherever she goes, she's the center of attention. I must say, my taste is impeccable!" 1/9 19:34 Sat, Dec 9x 53 Chapter 2029 Maxwell Zelinsky Rhett, usually quiet, couldn't resist chiming in with a playful remark. "Yep, looks like everyone here has good taste!" Quintus immediately got defensive, retorting, "I clearly have the best taste! I liked Mackenzie before anyone else, even Emmanuel!" "Too bad emotions and love don't follow a first-come, first-served rule..." Rhett responded with a philosophical remark before quickly walking away, not wanting to get dragged into a duel over this.

Mackenzie, however, had no tto pay attention to their banter. Being appointed the leader of West End's anti-bandit alliance was a huge responsibility, and she felt its weight. But the benefits were obvious-several influential business representatives had already pledged their support tonight. With the Chamber of Commerce elections only a little over a month. away, she needed to ensure everything stayed on track and that she emerged victorious.

The next morning, at exactly 8 a.m., Emmanuel called his wife via video chat. His reasons were threefold: to see his wife, to check in on their son, and to 5536 19:34 Sat, Dec 7 DE Chapter 2029 Maxwell Zelinsky 01 synchronize information to make sure both their plans were progressing smoothly.

When Emmanuel learned that Mackenzie was planning to lead a campaign against the bandits, he wasn't surprised, but he still felt the need to warn her. "Mackenzie, just take on the role of commander in nonly. Don't lead the charge personally, and whatever you do, don't put yourself at risk by entering the Five Poison Sect's territory." Mackenzie smiled. "Don't worry, I'll be careful." She understood Emmanuel's concerns and had no intention of taking unnecessary risks. She wasn't someone who enjoyed taking the spotlight on the battlefield, especially since she wasn't skilled in martial arts.

"On the other hand, don't get too distracted by West End's situation," Mackenzie reminded him. “I heard that Ethan Hale is going to have a public debate in Zovince soon with Catherine Adams and Mason Morgan. You should keep an eye on that!” Emmanuel chuckled. “These public debates are highly secure, so there's not 3/0 19.34 Sat, Dec 7 10 53% Chapter 2029 Maxwell Zelinsky much forto worry about. Besides, I can't really help Ethan win votes-it's all up to him now!" Mackenzie knew that, too; she was just expressing her concern.

Emmanuel had assigned Anna as her bodyguard, and she didn't want to wander around, fearing Gwain might track her down. Julian handled any public appearances she had to make. As for Ashton, her family and friends had left Onza, and she'd quit her job and moved to Zovince, effectively leaving her with nothing to do. Emmanuel had no tfor her, but she still wanted to follow him to Capitol Hall. Part of her wanted to know what kept him so busy, and part of her was genuinely interested in the national elections. However, just as she arrived at the venue and was about to go in,
