“What's going on?” Emmanuelasked immediately.

Beside him, Mackenzie clenched her fist. If anyone dared to harm her Quillen
family, it meant war, and she wasn’t about to let
that slide!
“I'm not entirely sure, but he said to attend the Nuthana Grand Martial Showdown
tomorrow and everything will become clear. He also mentioned it’s the free-for-all
tournament tomorrow!” Ashton relayed the message.
She had almost gotten into it with someone named Mr. Tanner earlier, but without
evidence, and considering she was investigating in a personal capacity, she
refrained from confronting Aidan. Given the Tanner family's influence and
prominence, if she dared to act against Aidan impulsively, she could risk losing
her position afterwards. So, she could only be held back from resorting to
violence!
After hanging up, Emmanuel wanted to rush to the Tanner family and deal with
the issue immediately. “How can we wait until the next day? Who knew how
Aidan would treat Beatrix?"
But just as Emmanuel started to rise and plan to find the Tanner family,
Mackenzie suddenly felt dizzy!
Emmanuel had to abandon his plans and quickly support Mackenzie, asking with
concern, “Mackenzie, are you okay?”
“I... I'll be fine. Mackenzie said softly, but she looked unwell.
“Let me check your pulse,” Emmanuel suggested, feeling a strange suspicion.
Besides some stomach problems, Mackenzie had always been healthy.
Suddenly feeling dizzy was new since their marriage!
“Could she be pregnant?” Emmanuel thought in his mind.
“No need,” Mackenzie declined firmly. “Maybe I just need some rest. I'll go lie
down and I should be okay.”
She also didn’t know why she didn’t want Emmanuel to know about her current
condition even in this tense situation.
At the same time, she hoped he would rescue Beatrix now instead of worrying
about Mackenzie!
But how could Emmanuel not worry?
With Chloe's health concerns, he could only stay home and have Eve send
someone to find Beatrix.
But there was no update all night.
The next day, with Beatrix still missing, despite it being the weekend, Mackenzie
had to oversee the Hadley factory's reconstruction herself, managing things on
site. The Titan Group's project was crucial to the Quillen family, no room for
mistakes!
Emmanuel stayed with Mackenzie, waiting for news from Eve and Wally.
And without evidence that Beatrix was in danger, they had to wait 24 hours
before investigating!

By evening, neither Eve nor Wally had received any news. Onza was so vast,
and they were not police officers. Finding someone in such circumstances was
too difficult.
After Emmanuel and Mackenzie reported the case to the authorities, they had no
choice but to go to tonight's free-for-all tournament at the boxing ring, as per
Aidan’s instructions!
The Quillen family was also participating in the Grand Martial Showdown.
Because of their tarnished reputation and not being members of the chamber of
commerce, they didn’t have the same privileges as the Silverbane family and
Chapman family according to unwritten rules.
Emmanuel and Mackenzie guessed that the competition to advance to the next
round would be intense at the beginning and end of the preliminary rounds. So,
they decided to register for the 17th day of the preliminaries based on their
instincts.

The Quillen family was also
participating in the Grand Martial
Showdown. Because of their tarnished reputation and not being members of the chamber of commerce, they didn't have the same
privileges as the Silverbane family
and Chapman family according to
unwritten rules. 

Emmanuel and Mackenzie guessed
that the competition to advance to
the next round would be intense at the beginning and end of the
preliminary rounds. So, they decided
to register for the 17th day of the
preliminaries based on their instincts.

Emmanuel had already been registered for the 17th day by the organizers, so
even if there was open registration tonight, hl wouldn't have a chance to
compete!
Of course, Emmanuel wasn't there to compete tonight. They were there to watch
Aidan’s moves!
“Emmanuel, Mackenzie!"
“Ms. Quillen!”
As they approached, they heard Shane and Frederick calling from behind.
“We've been waiting for you! What's up with Beatrix?”
“Yeah, we gotta make sure the safety of Ms. Beatrix. If anything happens to her,
we can't let Mr. Tanner off the hook!”
Shane and Frederick knew about Beatrix because Emmanuel had told them.
That's why they'd been waiting at the arena’s entrance early in the morning,
unable to go in but waiting for Emmanuel and Mackenzie to show up.

Seeing their worried faces,
Mackenzie was surprised. “Did they
really care so Hah Beatrix?
Did Baetrix have such a close
refationship with them?” Mackenzie
felt curious. “Why did it seem like
they both acted like Beatrix’s
significant others?”
