Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 895 Let Xylie Decide
“Huh, is the great hero so fond of seeing other people’s faces?” The woman’s appearance was not particularly beautiful, but she
had a unique presence. Mature and exuding a wild charm.
It was precisely because Snake Master’s sister also had this wild charm that Emmanuel had suspected her initially.
“Who are you? Why did you attack the party and senselessly kill so many people?” Emmanuel’s eyes blazed with anger. He had
never been merciful to those who played with people’s lives.”
“I failed the mission. If you want to kill me, go ahead.” The woman in the leather jacket grinned villainously, her eyes showing no
fear.
Emmanuel understood that the Redback Assassins were trained in a ruthless system and were prepared to face death in case of
mission failure,
If Emmanuel hadn’t used Snake Master’s sister’s life as leverage back then, Snake Master would never have submitted.
Therefore, he wasn’t confident that he could extract any valuable information from her.
“D*mn it; this woman is stubborn!” Nathan couldn’t take it anymore and picked up a gun, shooting the leather- clad woman in the
right chest.
The woman let out a muffled cry and knelt down, clutching her wound. She paid no attention to Nathan but stared fixedly at
Emmanuel.
The Redback Assassins revered strength and power, and she only acknowledged her defeat against Emmanuel. As for Nathan,
who was a wealthy but seemingly weak young man, she had no interest in him.
“Master, let me handle her. I’m skilled in the ten most brutal torture techniques, and I can guarantee she’ll spill the beans!”
Nathan said excitedly. “I’m even more eager to get information from her than you because these people clearly came for that
couple and my fiancée!”
“Your fiancée?” Emmanuel frowned.
“Yes, Xylie Tanner is my fiancée. Otherwise, why would I have risked my life to save her last night?” Nathan wasn’t hiding
anything, as he believed that only three people were left alive at the scene: Emmanuel, the leather-clad woman, and himself.

However, to his surprise, he heard Ashton’s voice from behind him. “Nathan Chapman, to think a playboy like you would get
involved in a political marriage with the Tanner family!”
Emmanuel also looked at Ashton in a new light.
He had noticed Ashton only when she was moving forward with excitement, and before that, his attention was focused on
Nathan. It seemed that even with her somewhat reckless and headstrong personality, she had some skills, which was why she
had managed to survive with her intelligence so far.
“Why are you still here?” Nathan, too, was quite surprised to see Ashton.
“Hmph, to save you, of course,” Ashton replied arrogantly. “But this guy here beat me to it and stole my thunder!”
Emmanuel found it amusing but decided not to provoke this determined Yeringham police officer for now. She was one of the
very few people who knew his true identity, and he didn’t want to eliminate her or risk exposing his identity, so he chose not to
engage with her at this moment.
Nathan, on the other hand, laughed heartily. “Ms. Summerton, if you had the ability, you wouldn’t have had to hide until now! It’s
funny how you’re only showing up now!”
Nathan, on the other hand, laughed heartily. “Ms. Summerton, if you had the ability, you wouldn’t have had to hide until now! It’s
funny how you’re only showing up now!”
“You...” Exposed by the scion, Ashton expectedly held further hostility toward him and warned through gritted teeth, “I’m a
Yeringham police officer, specifically here to apprehend Xylie Tanner. You better hand her over to me!”
“Pfft, try me!” Nathan replied, giving her no authoritative respect.
Ashton immediately grabbed his collar. “You dare to obstruct me in the execution of my duty, and I will deal with you first!”
“Oh, yeah? Try me then!” Nathan, though aware he couldn’t beat this woman in a fight, wasn’t one to be easily intimidated. After
all, he had the support of the Chapman family.
Seeing the two at an impasse, Emmanuel finally spoke up, “Nath, let Xylie make her own choice.”
