“Ms. Quillen, you’re awake!” Emmanuel heard the voice in his arms and breathed a sigh of relief.
“You… You need to let me go!” Mackenzie’s voice grew a degree colder.
Emmanuel sighed and nodded, gently setting his wife down.

Mackenzie made a determined effort to stand, pushing Emmanuel away with a frigid demeanor. “Don’t… Don’t touch me! I can stand on my own!”
“Alright… Alright…” Emmanuel raised his hands, indicating that he wouldn’t touch the woman before him again.
He would certainly be upset if any other woman treated him like this, thinking she was ungrateful. However, this was his beloved wife.
Mackenzie, not recognizing him at the moment, appeared more distant and colder. Strangely, the more distant she acted, the more at ease and happy Emmanuel felt.
“Thank you for saving me. Give me your account information. I’ll compensate you when I get back!” Mackenzie maintained her proud and sharp tone.

“Stop!” Mackenzie, however, called out to Emmanuel as he turned to leave.
Is this man refusing my monetary reward because he wants me to owe him a favor? Hmph, not a chance!
With a touch of spite, Mackenzie continued, “You better give me your account information, or don’t expect me to owe you any favors!

Although Mackenzie couldn’t see his smile, she could sense it.
“Ms. Quillen, whether I like you or not is my prerogative! I wish you a long and happy life with your husband. Goodbye!” Emmanuel finished speaking and swiftly headed toward the direction of the hill.
At that very moment, a car approached.
“Ms. Quillen!” Lexi, upon seeing Mackenzie, breathed a sigh of relief and rushed out of the car, exclaiming, “Thank goodness, Ms. Quillen, you’re safe! I was so scared when I saw so many bodies!”
Noticing that Mackenzie wasn’t responding, Lexi followed her gaze but didn’t see anything. Turning back to Mackenzie, Lexi realized that her boss seemed preoccupied.
“Ms. Quillen, what’s wrong?”
“I… I’m fine. Let’s get out of here!” Mackenzie snapped back to reality and, along with Lexi, quickly got into the

Under the cover of the night, Emmanuel watched his wife and Lexi drive away. Only then did he fully exhale in relief and hurriedly ran toward the densely wooded hillside.
In the small hillside, the Chapman family’s bodyguards were already surrounded by the assailant organization.
Amidst the hail of bullets and explosions, Nathan’s loyal and brave bodyguards fell one by one.
“D*mn it! What grudge does the Holy Fire organization have against me? Do they have to go to such lengths to kill me?” Nathan leaned against a boulder, a bitter and angry expression on his face.
He was cornered!
“Surrender, Mr. Nathan!” Under the cover of darkness, a woman in a leather jacket’s proud voice echoed. “You have no chance of winning. If you don’t want to die, surrender and hand over the sisters from the Tanner family!”
