Chapter 723
“Really?” Emmanuel was skeptical. “The Redback Assassins indeed value
success rate highly, but your brother is one of the top three assassins. Would
they really cripple him for failing one mission?”
Mackenzie also found it hard to believe. She looked at him. Ever since
Emmanuel disappeared, she had always suspected that he was not an
ordinary person.
Now that she had witnessed his extraordinary skills, exceptional medical
techniques, and knowledgeable side, she believed that he was hiding
something.
However, Alessandra, his mother, had claimed that he was just an ordinary
retired soldier, so Mackenzie didn’t speculate wildly.
“Mr. Lowe, Mackenzie, please believe me!” The woman in red continued
anxiously, “My brother failed his mission, but he didn’t want to return the 12
million to the employer. He wanted to take me and leave the Redback
Assassins, but he was caught and they crippled his legs!”
Emmanuel frowned, finding her words somewhat credible.
Mackenzie, however, remained skeptical. “Your brother is one of the top three
assassins in the Redback Assassins. Who could have caught him so easily?”
“That’s the second thing I wanted to tell you.” The woman in red looked
anxious. “Someone has hired the new Saintess of the Holy Fire organization. It
seems like her target is you. She has already arrived in Yeringham with her
followers. It was her who captured my brother!”
“Saintess?” Mackenzie frowned slightly and looked at him. She had no idea
that organization was.
Neither was Emmanuel familiar with the Holy Fire organization. Even though
he had heard of it before, he had never directly confronted it.
“The Holy Fire organization sold us siblings to the Redback Assassins. It has
over a hundred thousand members worldwide,” the woman in red explained
quickly.
So, that’s how it is.
The couple was secretly surprised, especially Mackenzie. The Quillen family
had never confronted such a huge organization before.
If they were really targeting the Quillen family, it would be difficult for them to
resist.
“After I take Mackenzie home, you can show me the way to your brother.”
Emmanuel decided to trust the woman in red this time. After all, the life of the
Snake Master was in his hands. She wouldn’t dare to play tricks with him.
“Emmanuel, let’s go together,” Mackenzie suddenly suggested.
He was slightly stunned. “Didn’t you say that you have to sleep before 11 p.m.
every night?”
“I can make an exception once just for you.” She smiled engagingly.
He was touched.
The woman in red couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “What did I do to deserve
this? Why do I have to suffer this?”
The couple burst into laughter. Soon, the three of them arrived at a secluded
guesthouse.
The couple would’ve suspected that the woman in red had set up an
ambush here to lure them in if they didn’t have Snake Master as their
leverage.
Mackenzie asked suspiciously before getting out of the car, “Why did you
choose to keep your brother in a place like this?”
“Mackenzie, please stop being paranoid.” The woman in red subtly changed
her tone. Her tone was sweet before this because she was desperate to
survive.
“The Holy Fire organization is much stronger than you think. Their information
network almost permeates the whole world. Now that they are planning to do
something in Yeringham, they could find us at any time if I take my brother to
a hotel.”
