Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO novel Chapter 391
Chapter 391
Mackenzie’s beautiful eyes narrowed as her mind raced. After a moment, she
instructed Lexi, “I got it. Keep investigating and find a way to contact
Emmanuel. Let him know I want to see him and tell him to come back
immediately!”
“Yes, Ms. Quillen!” Lexi replied.
As Mackenzie hung up the phone, Alessandra immediately grew anxious and
asked, “Mackenzie, what’s wrong? Did something happen to Manny?”
Mackenzie quickly rea*sured her, “Mom, everything will be fine. I will protect
Emmanuel.”
She was a*sertive and strong–willed. Alessandra was a bit surprised but felt
comforted. Her daughter–in–law was reliable, and she was much better than
Abellyn. As long as Mackenzie still called her “Mom,” she believed the
marriage wouldn’t be lost.
Once I see Manny, I’ll make sure he holds on to Mackenzie. Such a great
Chapter 391 Come Back to Me
daughter–in–law shouldn’t be let go; where else can we find someone like
her?
“Mom, you have to tell me something today. Where exactly did Emmanuel
serve in the military? Did he have any rank?” Mackenzie suddenly asked
seriously.
At first, she thought Emmanuel was just an ordinary retired soldier. However,
after more than two months of being together, she realized that this man’s
skills were incredibly powerful, and his medical expertise was extraordinary.
He was definitely not an ordinary person.

Being taken away by a mysterious force now also proved that he must have
had a background she didn’t know about. That seemingly naive man had
hidden his true background quite well!
“Well, he went to the Northern Region back then and rarely contacted us
during those years. His father pa*sed away, and he couldn’t even make it
back due to circumstances. So, I’m not really sure about the specifics,”
Alessandra replied, thinking as she spoke.
“He didn’t tell you he held any military position?” Mackenzie asked again.
“No, Manny never mentioned it.” Alessandra shook her head.
“Then when he retired, did he receive any pension or benefits?” Mackenzie
continued her questioning.
Alessandra shook her head sadly. “None at all! My son isn’t ambitious in that
regard. Other soldiers who came back received quite a lot of benefits, but he
didn’t get anything.”
“He received nothing at all?!” This completely surprised Mackenzie. Could it be
that she had been wrong all along? Was Emmanuel not anyone important?
“That’s right! He didn’t receive anything. I heard he was dishonorably
discharged from the military due to committing a mistake and came back
empty–handed. That’s why he couldn’t find a woman and failed on 18 blind
dates!” Alessandra said, feeling a bit uneasy.
She quickly held Mackenzie’s hand and smiled wryly. “Mackenzie, my Manny
may not be ambitious, but he has a good heart and is very honest and
sincere to people.”
Mackenzie’s lips curved slightly as she rea*sured her, “Mom, I understand.
Well then, I’ll go now and find that idiot Emmanuel.”
“Okay then!” Alessandra reluctantly let go of Mackenzie’s hand. She didn’t
want to hold her back.
After leaving the Lowe Residence, Mackenzie drove while deep in thought. If
she wanted to uncover Emmanuel’s true identity, it seemed she would have
to start with Eve.
Regardless of whether Emmanuel was someone important or not, he had
saved her life twice, so she had to cherish him.
Hmph, I hate owing favors to people the most. You idiot, hurry up and come
back to me!
Mackenzie realized she really missed that man. Besides, thinking about him
and Claudette made her heart ache. She was filled with a profound sense of
Chapter 392
After two unfamiliar men brought Emmanuel out, they asked him to wait in
place near the police station and said that someone else would come to see
him. Then, they left first.
Emmanuel didn’t understand what was going on, and he didn’t even know
the identities of these two strangers.
Last night, he gave his statement and recorded his testimony at the police
station. He insisted that he acted in self–defense, and today he was released.
Although he had been worried that Magnus and the Verkade family would
interfere and make him rot in jail, he still had faith in the law of Chanaea, and
sure enough, he was released so quickly.
However, when he recalled last night’s events, he felt a sense of regret and
pain in his heart.
He wondered if Mackenzie and Claudette were all right.
Emmanuel knew that because of this incident, he and Magnus had become
mortal enemies, and Magnus definitely wanted to kill him!
Of course, he would never let Magnus off either.
What Emmanuel didn’t expect was that while he was lost in thought, two
MPVs suddenly appeared at the corner.
One was in front and the other one was behind. They were blocking his way!
Emmanuel was secretly alarmed and he wondered whether this was of
Magnus‘ deduction. Did Magnus already know that he had been released
from the police station and sent people to ambush him in advance?
However, it seemed unlikely. Magnus was very smart. He would know that
sending ordinary people to openly confront Emmanuel would have a very low
chance of success, and Emmanuel might even end up finding evidence to
turn the tables and bring trouble back to him.
Soon enough, Emmanuel saw his granddad, Hermann, who needed support
just to get out of the car. He was speechless. These top-notch relatives of his
were really persistent!
“Hmph! Emmanuel! You’ve caused so much misery for the Cadigan family
and even sent my grandson to jail! I’m going to teach you a lesson today!”
Hermann was threatening Emmanuel and blaming all the suffering his
grandson endured on the Lowe family.
In his eyes, Emmanuel, this toy boy, had some skills and was just living off
Mackenzie’s support. However, he heard that Mackenzie had dumped
Emmanuel, so he brought so many people today. He was certain he could
finish him off.
Emmanuel wasn’t afraid of him bringing people to cause trouble for him. He
was only concerned that Hermann would target his sister and mother. So, he
remained composed and calmly asked, “Granddad? Uncle Emerson, how did
you know I was here?”
Hmph!
Hermann snorted coldly. “Pulling strings doesn’t help now! Anyway, you can’t
escape your fate. I can tell you that the Verkade family has actually been
supporting us all along. Otherwise, how could they have nearly cursed you to
death last time?”
Emmanuel found it even more amusing. If someone could be cursed to
death by mere words, that person must be incredibly fragile, right?
Nevertheless, Hermann’s words cleared up his doubts. So, it was the Verkade
family providing financial support from behind the scenes. It made sense
because there was no way the Cadigan family, a bunch of freeloaders, could
have stirred up such a big storm alone.
Since the Verkade family was manipulating things from the shadows, it was
only natural that they could ambush him here so quickly.
It seemed that with Magnus in the distance and the Verkade family brothers
up close, his days in Yeringham were destined to be difficult. At least he
couldn’t maintain the same level of tranquility as before!
“Don’t waste time talking to him. Let’s attack while there are fewer people
here! Go and get him! Kill him!”
Emerson was impatient and immediately shouted in a rage.

There were several burly men behind them and each of them pulled out their
machetes while exuding a murderous aura.
Clearly, they came prepared!
However, before they could pounce on Emmanuel, a black six–wheeled
vehicle directly rammed toward them like a crazed beast!
“What the heck is going on?”
The car clearly intended to ram them to death!
The hired thugs employed by the father and son from the Cadigan family
were instantly terrified. They forgot about their mission and quickly
abandoned their machetes to escape to the sides.
Boom!
The sturdy military vehicle directly crashed into the MPV driven by the father
and son from the Cadigan family, crushing it in the middle.
The deafening sound scared Hermann so much that he lay flat on the
ground while trembling all over.
What the heck! Emerson was also on the verge of wetting himself!
He thought that by bringing people to surround Emmanuel in this secluded
place, they would surely get their revenge. Who would have thought that a
military vehicle would appear out of nowhere to save this toy boy after he
was abandoned by Mackenzie and after Claudette was dead?
Could it be that Mackenzie and Emmanuel had reconciled? Did she send
people to protect him at all times?
However, the next moment, a woman in a black trench coat stepped out of
the monster truck.
Hermann and Emerson were suddenly stunned!
guilt.
Chapter 393
Emerson felt like he had guessed wrong. Wasn’t this person here to protect
Emmanuel?
The woman in the trench coat glanced briefly after getting out of the car, and
then she quickly got back in the car. She completely ignored the father and
son from the Cadigan family, as if they were invisible!
Huh? She’s leaving already?
Hermann found it quite strange too. Who was this woman? What was she
here for?
She crashed into their car and now she wanted to leave? Was she trying to
hit and run?
However, due to the intense collision, a crowd had gathered around them.
The father and son from the Cadigan family gritted their teeth. It seemed like
their plan to secretly deal with Emmanuel was going down the drain!
Even Emmanuel was puzzled.
He was different from them. He recognized this woman in the trench coat. It
was Eve. However, she didn’t say a word and it was hard to figure out her
intentions!
In the next moment, Emmanuel came to a realization.
Eve closed the car door and started the engine again. The six–wheeled
monstrous vehicle slowly reversed.
“What the heck? She crashed into our car and now she wants to leave? Is this
woman crazy?”
Just as Emerson was yelling in rage, his mouth widened in the next moment,
as if it was about to split open!
After starting the monstrous vehicle, Eve locked onto her target once again.
he accelerated and charged forward!
“Hey! Hey! No! That’s our car! Don’t do it!”
It was another scene of a horrific intentional car crash.
The already mangled MPV was completely crushed by the monstrous
vehicle. Even the wheels rolled out and tumbled along the roadside. It finally
landed in front of Hermann with a loud thud.
Following that, the car door fell to the ground with a clang.
Everyone was stunned!
The father and son from the Cadigan family, on the other hand, were utterly
dumbfounded!
For goodness‘ sake, was this woman crazy?
Emmanuel was also dumbfounded watching from the side. Eve was still as
hot–tempered as ever!
In some ways, it would be a better idea to provoke Hades than to provoke
Eve.
This woman was consistent in her fiery temperament. Once she set her
target, she wouldn’t give up until she achieved her goall
From the beginning, she intended to completely wreck Hermann’s car.
Unfortunately, the first collision didn’t go as planned, but that didn’t matter.
She was ready for the second round!
When she got out of the car earlier, she was simply a*sessing the angle for
the second collision and trying to find the best way to smash the car to
pieces.
“Hey, Emmanuel!”
Eve only called out to Emmanuel at this moment.
“Hmm?”
He was slightly taken aback.
“What are you standing there for? Get in the car!” she yelled.
He couldn’t help but find it amusing. Why is she asking me why I’m standing
here? It’s obvious that I’m watching your performance!
“I’m hungry. Let’s grab a meal first! If you don’t mind, I’ll decide where to eat.”
As soon as Emmanuel got into the car, Eve casually spoke as if she had
already forgotten about what she had just done!
Chapter 394
“What the heck! You crazy woman! You smashed our car into this state and
now you want to leave and have a meal? Are you taking us lightly?”
Hermann wanted to intervene, but as soon as he saw Eve’s gaze, he
immediately stepped back in fear.
Her killing intent was strong!
Just one look from her made him understand that she was different from
them, who were common folks. She was truly capable of killing!
Afterward, Eve ignored the father and son duo, got into the car, and drove
away with Emmanuel.
“Damn it! That crazy woman is too arrogant! I must kill her!”
Only when they were gone did Hermann dare to spit out a curse and speak
harshly.
Not only did she damage their car without apologizing, but she also took
Emmanuel away for a meal as if they were insignificant!
He simply couldn’t tolerate it!
Emerson, on the other hand, looked at Hermann with disdain. What was the
use of speaking tough words after she left if Hermann was so cowardly when
she was around?
That being said, Hermann was still his father, and Hermann had always
favored him since he was young, so he had always respected him.
Half an hour later, Eve and Emmanuel arrived at a high-end restaurant.
he ordered a variety of dishes and enjoyed herself as she ate the barbecue.
Emmanuel, on the other hand, watched her devour pork ribs which were
thicker than her arm, and couldn’t help but shiver.
Crunch! Crunch!
Tsk tsk… Here we go again!
He couldn’t help but admit that she had impressive dental prowess. She
could eat bones like vegetables. It was a skill that not ordinary people could
acquire!
Why did the Wolf Warrior Unit of the Northern Region seem to specialize in
producing such strange individuals?
“What are you looking at?”
Éve noticed Emmanuel staring at her and couldn’t help but glare at him while
asking, “Why are you looking at me as if it’s your first time seeing me eating?!”
As she spoke, she crushed the pork ribs in her hand and greedily sucked out
the marrow inside.
He found it amusing and couldn’t help but mourn for the pig. Even its bones
were chewed into shreds after its death. That was quite a pitiful fate!
After extracting the essence from the bone, Eve seemed to still want more.
She licked her red nails clean with her tongue.
Her vibrant red tongue was as enticing ds a strawberry.
After touching her slim abdomen, she gently pushed the plate in front of her
and said to him, “Emmanuel, do you know who protected you this time?”
He was taken aback and hesitated for a while before asking, “Could it be the
Northern Region?”
At first, he believed in the law. Then, he thought it might be Mackenzie, but he
never expected it to be the Northern Region.
She chuckled and said, “Don’t you know how the Zelinsky family of Zovince
and the Verkade family of Yeringham operate? If it weren’t for the Northern
Region protecting you, who do you think would have let you regain your
freedom this morning?”
Emmanuel nodded.
-Although he suspected Mackenzie’s power, he hadn’t confirmed that she was
the young lady of the Quillen family, so he didn’t believe she had that kind of
influence.
Besides, they had already divorced. Would she still care about him?
At the thought of this, his heart inexplicably ached!
“Captain, let’s return to the Northern Region!”
Eve suddenly changed her address toward Emmanuel and looked at him
with anticipation. “You’ve eliminated Casper, the S-cla*s fugitive, and
achieved another great feat for the Northern Region. Commander Stevenson
hopes that you’ll come back. He has always regarded you as his son!”
Emmanuel thought of Kolton Stevenson and felt a strong sense of nostalgia!
He also considered Kolton a father figure, but three years ago, he had
disappointed Kolton too much. He felt ashamed to face Kolton again, so he
never went back.
Chapter 395
Eve’s eyes flashed with a hint of resentment after she saw Emmanuel’s
fluctuating expression. She coldly said, “Emmanuel, have you really let go of
your brothers in arms in the Northern Region? Don’t you want to see them
again? Weren’t you the one who valued loyalty and righteousness the most?”
Eve, that’s enough!”
Emmanuel quickly interrupted her. “Just as people cannot come back to life,
there are some things that can’t be undone. I am now just an ordinary person
in Yeringham. I don’t want and don’t have the qualifications to join the
Northern Region again. If you can contact Commander Stevenson, please
thank him for his kindness on my behalf!”
Eve had always been different from ordinary women. She looked at him for a
while but ultimately just hummed in agreement before lowering her head to
continue devouring the bones.
“Oh, by the way! What’s the story behind the scar on your chest?”
Emmanuel’s gaze was sharp. When sho bont down to eat, her collar revealed
a small part of the scar.
Aside from Eve’s ample bosom, he wouldn’t shy away from such matters as a
gynecologist.
After three years of not seeing each other, he noticed a horrifying scar on her
chest which seemingly spread toward her heart.
If it were any other woman being subjected to such a severe injury, they
might have already died!
“Oh, you mean this?”
+
She didn’t choose to hide it from him. Instead, she calmly pulled down her
collar and revealed a deep cleavage.
It was still as bottomless as ever!
“It’s nothing significant. I was slashed with a knife when I came to Yeringham
and got into a fight with someone! I will definitely avenge this grudge!”
She spoke of it casually, but Emmanuel couldn’t help but feel the danger in
her words.
However, Eve didn’t want to dwell on it, and he didn’t continue to probe.
Regardless, he couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful.
He knew that although she didn’t care much about her appearance, she had
the looks of a goddess and a nice body that many women envied. Having
such a horrifying scar on her chest was like a crack in a beautiful jade.
“Officers, it’s them! They just crashed into my car and attempted to murder
us!”
At that moment, an angry roar interrupted their conversation. Hermann and
his son burst into the room accompanied by armed patrol officers.
“That’s right! After crashing into our car, they brazenly fled. You must capture
them and throw them in jail!”
Emerson also shouted and smirked while eagerly waiting to see the show.
The commotion caught the attention of many people in the restaurant. After
all, this was no small matter!
Even the special patrol officers dressed in black uniforms have arrived. Could
there be terrorists in the restaurant?
“Freeze!”
Several patrol officers shouted at Emmanuel and Eve in response to
Hermann and his son’s words.
Based on the description provided by Hermann and his son, if the woman
before them had intentionally hit someone with her car, her actions
constituted a threat to public safety!
This was considered an act of terrorism. It was no joking matter, and they
couldn’t afford the slightest negligence.
The leading captain was particularly vigilant. He was ready to pounce and
subdue the two criminals if they showed any signs of resistance. He would
even resort to lethal force if necessary!
However, what they didn’t expect was that Emmanuel and Eve remained
remarkably calm. Their composure made the captain uneasy!
Especially Eve, who displayed an indifférent expression while continuing to
gnaw on the bones as if they were not worth her attention. She did not even
care about the dark muzzles of the guns pointed at her!
This was too audacious!
It seemed that the descriptions provided by the father and son were not
false!
The team leader’s name was Reed Walters. He was around twenty-nine
years old.
He had been a patrol officer for five to six years and had carried out many
dangerous missions. Yet, he had never encountered a suspect as fearless as
Eve!
However, he maintained his professionalism. Although he wanted to teach
Eve and Emmanuel a lesson immediately, he had to clarify the situation first.
“Good day. We are patrol officers from Yeringham’s Crime Suppression
Bureau. We suspect that you are involved in a serious public collision.
incident. Please cooperate with us for the investigation!”
Chapter 396
“Where are your identification documents?” Eve asked calmly.
“We are special patrol officers. We don’t need to show identification. Raise
your hands quickly!” Reed roared angrily as he felt that this woman truly had
no regard for anyone.
“But we haven’t finished our meal yet.” She pointed to the table while showing
no concern for the patrol officers who were raging and armed to the teeth.
Did they think they could take her away with just a few newcomers?
