Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 885 Unexpected Alliances
What a disaster!
If Master finds out, I’m in big trouble!
Mackenzie was somewhat puzzled. What’s going on with him all of a sudden? Even the way he looks at me has changed!
“Haha, Ms. Quillen, honestly, I was just checking your loyalty, not genuinely interested in your body!” Nathan promptly clarified,
even though he struggled to offer a coherent explanation.

Mackenzie remained unconvinced. Nathan’s earlier attitude had been unmistakably sincere, far more convincing than his current
words.
Although she was unclear about the situation, Nathan’s sudden change of demeanor seemed like a golden opportunity for her.
“Well, after evaluating the situation, I must say you’re an extraordinarily devoted and virtuous lady, Ms. Quillen. Your husband is
indeed fortunate,” he stated with sincerity.
However, he couldn’t ignore Mackenzie’s icy glare, which seemed capable of freezing him in place. Without delay, he continued,
“Ms. Quillen, given your unwavering commitment to love, I believe your loyalty extends to your business partners as well. I highly
value this quality in you, and that’s why I’ve chosen to initiate our collaboration immediately.”
“Really?” Mackenzie was pleasantly surprised inside, but she maintained a composed expression on the surface.
How could things turn around so suddenly?
She couldn’t help feeling that Nathan was a bit eccentric.
“Of course, it’s true!” Nathan earnestly said, “I will immediately inform the head of the company to come and sign the contract
with you.”
Mackenzie noticed his serious demeanor, even though she remained uncertain about his true intentions. Nevertheless, she
politely expressed her gratitude.

“Well, um... Ms. Quillen, please wait here for a bit. I’ll be right back!”
Nathan hastily made his exit, fearing that Emmanuel might show up at any moment. If Mackenzie spilled the beans about what
just happened, it would be a total disaster.
Despite the fact that the Chapman family was fearless in the face of any force, the Wolf King was at the zenith of his power,
capable of effortlessly decapitating ten thousand soldiers as if it were a casual task.
The Wolf King had even assassinated the leader of a country before. Regardless of the Chapman family’s strength, could they
truly rival international security forces?
As Nathan left the room, he finally let out a sigh of relief. Right on cue, he spotted Emmanuel approaching him.
“Nath, how’s it going? Has the lady from the other party arrived?” Emmanuel asked as soon as he saw him.
“Haha, Master!”
Nathan, still a bit paranoid, couldn’t allow Emmanuel to spot Mackenzie at the moment. He
promptly stood on tiptoe, slung his arm around Emmanuel’s shoulder, and forcefully guided him to another room.
“What’s going on? Why are you being so secretive?” Emmanuel sensed that something was amiss about him.
Concerned that Emmanuel might discern something amiss, Nathan opted to shift his focus and straightforwardly admitted,
“Master, I’m sorry! I’ve already agreed to collaborate with the other party!”
“What?!” Emmanuel’s anger was palpable, and his fierce eyes stared at Nathan intently.
His eyes seemed to convey a clear message: unless Nathan could provide a reasonable explanation, Emmanuel might just end
his life then and there.
Nathan dreaded this murderous stare, especially since he knew better than anyone the formidable power Emmanuel had
wielded in the
past.

Swiftly, he put on a smile and said, “Master, I’m confident you won’t hold this against me! Please permit me to keep you in
suspense for now; I promise to reveal the truth later!”
After saying that, he quickly made his escape.
Emmanuel was tempted to just eliminate him on the spot. After all his calculations, he hadn’t expected Nathan to play such
tricks.
Fine!
If he fails to give me an explanation tonight and ruins my plan, I won’t spare him!
Although I’m no longer in my prime as the Wolf King, I still possess more than enough power to deal with someone like him.
