Chapter 1303 The Recording

Ashton had just arrived and discovered the couple engaged in a passionate kiss. She couldn’t resist interrupting
them.
They were unaware if they had escaped danger, yet they were indulging in their affection, which was somehow inappropriate.
Emmanuel and Mackenzie finally ceased their embrace.
Emmanuel appeared slightly annoyed. He quickly examined Mackenzie’s injuries with concern.
“What do you mean by ‘again’?” Mackenzie stared at Ashton and inquired.
“Hmph, are you pretending not to know? After Emmanuel dealt with Magnus last time, I saw clearly what you did with him in the
river.”
“What? You saw it?”
Mackenzie immediately glared at Ashton. She was momentarily flustered but then regained composure and coldly remarked,
“Officer Summerton, isn’t this a bit unethical?”
Ashton was actually lying. She didn’t witness anything that night, but that didn’t prevent her from speculating on what Emmanuel
and Mackenzie did in the water.
At this moment, her gaze became evasive as she stated, “What do you mean by unethical? If you two dare to engage in such
activities, why can’t I take a look? If I were to stop or join you, that would be unethical.”
Wow! How could you join us in that kind of situation?
Emmanuel shivered as he hastily told Mackenzie, “Don’t believe her nonsense. Let’s leave here and go back. There are many
people waiting for you outside.”
Mackenzie also nodded. She didn’t believe a word Ashton uttered.
At this moment, at the wedding, all eyes were fixed on Sage, awaiting his presentation of evidence to prove that today’s bride
was an imposter.
If he failed to produce any evidence, Hattie and numerous others present would not let him off the hook, even if he was the
esteemed Captain Payne.
Dominique was also brimming with confidence. Hattie was always meticulous in her actions, never easily caught or controlled.
Sage, a mere police officer, couldn’t possibly defeat her.
Just then, a voice suddenly rang out, “Ms. Zelinsky, just return Mackenzie.”
This statement surprised everyone.
Dominique was instantly stunned.
Even the members of the Quillen family found it hard to believe.
William and Winona were filled with fear. They were at a loss for what to do.
Upon hearing this voice, even Hattie, who had been calm and composed, was suddenly struck by a wave of shock.

Upon hearing this voice, even Hattie, who had been calm and composed, was suddenly struck by a wave of shock.
She stared at Gautier in disbelief.
She had always believed she had tamed this man, especially when he kneeled. She thought she had completely crushed his
arrogance. She never anticipated that he would betray her at such a crucial moment.
However, despite the turmoil within her, she remained composed on the surface.
She was not a woman who could be easily defeated.
She had climbed her way up step by step in the treacherous Zelinsky family, establishing her own power and becoming the
queen. Otherwise, her beauty alone would never have warranted the title of one of the Four Beauties of Zovince.
The entire room continued to stare at Gautier in disbelief.
William and Winona also couldn’t fathom that their son would betray Hattie at this moment.
Their hearts trembled as they thought there was no turning back from this decision.
“Gautier, have you lost your mind? Mackenzie is right in front of you. What nonsense are you spouting now?” Dominique
immediately retorted coldly against Gautier.
“No, she is not Mackenzie.”
Sage had previously stated twice that the woman on the stage was not Mackenzie, and nobody believed it. Now that Gautier
repeated it, the crowd couldn’t help but believe it.
Today’s events were so strange and suspicious that even a novelist wouldn’t dare to write a similar story.
However, it truly happened in real life.
“Mr. Verkade, your son has gone insane. Please find someone to remove him immediately!” Hattie commanded William.
She was aware that Gautier had been rebellious in his youth, but William wouldn’t dare to defy her. If he did, the Verkade family’s
commercial empire would crumble, and they would be irreparably ruined.
“I have evidence.”
Gautier didn’t wait for his father to speak. He promptly retrieved a small recorder from his pocket and declared in front of
everyone, “I have a recording here, capturing the conversation between Hattie and Emmanuel. Every word she utters proves that
Mackenzie is a mere puppet. Besides, I’m also her puppet.”
