Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Local officials had sent people to receive Ethan's delegation, following standard procedures.

Even though Chester and the local government had provided a security team to protect Ethan, Emmanuel Lowe remained by his side, refusing to leave even for a moment, accompanying him to the frontlines of the disaster. Chester, despite not saying much, treated Emmanuel like a thorn in his side and refused to engage with him.

Emmanuel understood his frustration, but Ethan was one of the candidates for the head of state, and his safety was extremely important. He couldn't abandon his duty just because of Chester's hostility.

"Alright, I know you care, but I've got serious work to do. Let's chat more when things settle down."

"Haha, it's an honor to have you here, Ms. Quillen! Truly a privilege for West End!" The middle-aged manager, Anthony Quail, greeted her with flattery as she stepped out of the car.

Even though she hadn't fully regained her figure after giving birth, her natural elegance and stunning looks made her impossible to compare with any other woman.

"Mr. Quail, what's going on here? Why are there so many people at the relief center this late?" Mackenzie asked curiously.

Yet, Anthony remained vague, never making any concrete promises. Once Lexi completed the donation process, Anthony, citing a busy schedule, politely saw Mackenzie off with a formal smile. Everything felt routine and bureaucratic, with nothing out of the ordinary. However, as soon as they exited the relief center, Lexi leaned close and whispered, "Ms. Quillen, something seems off with the donation process." "What's wrong?" Mackenzie asked, her guard up. She had felt there was something odd about the night but had no solid evidence to act on.

Lexi whispered back, "Corruption can run deep. If the right people are m working together, they could easily pocket part of our donation, and who would know? There are so many donations coming in from all over the country."
