Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 1299 Deceitful Wedding
“I don’t have feelings for your bride, but I must put an end to this deceitful wedding today.”
As soon as Sage spoke, the atmosphere became restless as the crowd started wondering what he meant.
“Captain Payne, you are going too far with your words.” William quickly stepped forward with his wife.

“The Verkade family has always been law-abiding and charitable. I have always considered you a good friend, and we were
originally delighted to have you here today. However, your words will undoubtedly damage the reputation. of both the Quillen and
Verkade families. We have no grievances or conflicts, so why would you do this? Why would you disrupt everyone’s blessings
with such discordant words?”
William’s words were very wise. First, he portrayed the Verkade family in a positive light. Then, he emphasized that everyone
was here to give their blessings, aligning himself with them and putting Sage on the opposing side.
In doing so, Sage would no longer represent the righteous side but the antagonist. Antagonists often represented falsehood and
evil, so whatever he said next, his credibility would greatly diminish.
The Verkade family needed this marriage. Hence, William had to think carefully to defend it.
“Captain Payne, words should not be spoken carelessly.”
“Even though you are a powerful figure in Yeringham, you cannot bear the consequences if you make a mistake.”
“Uninvited guests should leave now.”
There were immediately people on the scene who joined William in pressuring Sage, wanting him to leave with his people
immediately.

Sage also admired those seasoned businessmen like William, who had a persuasive way of speaking. Unfortunately, he was not
someone who could be easily pressured.
He solemnly said, “If the woman before us is the real Mackenzie, I will offer my blessings no matter who she chooses to marry.
Unfortunately, she is an impostor. Today has been a scam, from beginning to end.”
“What?!”
Sage’s words shocked the entire scene.
The crowd of thousands exploded in an instant.
The Quillen family was also thrown into panic, and a group of women were at a loss.
Even Hattie, who had always been composed and capable, couldn’t help but furrow her brows slightly. She knew very well about
the relationship between Sage and Emmanuel.
Does the daring Captain Payne not fear that the real Mackenzie would meet a tragic end if he exposes the impostor at the
wedding? What’s happening on the side of the real Mackenzie?
“Sage, you have gone too far!”
After a moment of uncertainty, William’s face suddenly turned red. He, who had always carried himself with grace, pointed at
Sage and scolded him angrily, “You are a representative of justice, so why are you deceiving people like this today? This is the
Verkade family’s first and only wedding of the third generation. I have said that we have no grievances or grudges, so why did
you bring people here to cause trouble?
“You may hold a high position of power with great strengthland armed with firearms and you may also have ranu.

“You may hold a high position of power, with great strength and armed with firearms, and you may also have many followers. The
Verkade family, being a small and insignificant household, cannot contend with you. However, I believe in the existence of justice
in this world. Today, with thousands of people watching, it is clear that you intentionally disrupted the century-long marriage

between the Quillen and Verkade families. Once this incident spreads, even if you have power and influence, you will still be
infamous and will pay a great price in the years to
come.”
William sounded passionate and indignant, assuming the posture of someone rising up against injustice.
His speech was indeed quite provocative and had gained support from many people present. However, it almost made Sage,
who was usually serious, burst into laughter.
If they were to talk about who held the most power in Yeringham, it would be the Verkade family. Yet, William portrayed the
Verkade family as victims while describing Sage as someone who concealed the truth and committed heinous crimes.
He was truly a clever, cunning merchant.
However, Sage was not one to be underestimated either. Throughout the years, there hadn’t been a case he hadn’t handled or
individuals he hadn’t encountered.
Although William might have a sharp tongue, Sage was not afraid of him.
“Enough with the charade, Mr. Verkade. Are you pretending just to hide your lack of knowledge? So, you can avoid taking
responsibility for everything?”
“Lack of knowledge? Captain Payne, I honestly have no idea what you’re talking about. Please-”
Williamn wanted to continue his lengthy speech and further provoke the crowd’s emotions.
However, as a martial artist, Sage had no interest in engaging in a battle of wits with him. He turned directly to Hattie and said,
“Ms. Hattie Zelinsky, please release the real Ms. Quillen from her captivity.”
