Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 2269 The Grand Hunt Alliance

“How dare you?”

finished

Nathan's voice rang out sharply as he protested. “Is my family weaker than the other three families? Or do you

think our warriors can’t even carry their weapons properly? Every other family gets to send a large group inside,

but only two from my family are allowed?”

The surrounding crowd smirked at his outburst, including those who had just started ascending the mountain.

This Chapman kid is still too young!

“You picked the wrong side, don’t you know that? Hahaha.” A noble descendant of the Four Great Aristocratic

Families of Zovince sneered at Nathan.

For years, he had lived under Nathan's shadow, crushed beneath his influence. But everything had changed. The

upcoming national election would mark the downfall of the Chapman family.

In times of great upheaval, choosing the wrong side carried consequences that even aristocratic families couldn't

afford.

“Hmph! Let's see who's on the wrong side!” Nathan spat, refusing to back down. “Two people it is. Master Lively,

let's go up and watch these monkeys make fools of themselves tomorrow!”

The ever-wary Gale asked, “Master Dhyana, there are those who seek to harm Mr. Chapman. Once we're up the

mountain, can you ensure his safety?”

“Master Lively, rest assured!”

Master Dhyana replied confidently, “Once you reach the halfway checkpoint, you'll be in the Chapel of -Oros*

territory, the strongest sect in Chanaea. Without our permission, no one can resort to violence. We

will ensure Mr. Chapman's safety!”

“Hmph, you're talking big!” Nathan muttered, ready to fire back.

Gale silenced him with a look before nodding to Master Dhyana. “We appreciate your protection!”

With that, the Chapman family ascended the mountain, marking the arrival of all the Four Great Families.

“D*mn, there's no signal here!”

Blake frowned as he reached the mountain’s midpoint. He had wanted to post a selfie and flaunt his sharp

features. But when he pulled out his phone, he realized it was useless.

Magnus smirked. “You country bumpkin, did you just realize this? The Divine Mountain has restricted

communications. Only those with national-level clearance can send messages here.”

“Alright, alright!” Blake waved him off impatiently. “Oh wow, you're from the city. Of course, you're sophisticated.

Truly amazing of you!”

Then, his expression turned serious. “Magnus, which side are you really on?”

Magnus feigned ignorance. “What side? | only stand on my own side, the side of victory.”

With that, he ignored Blake.

Meanwhile, outside the congress, Emmanuel stood watch near Ethan's official residence, awaiting updates

from his scouts.

His phone buzzed with a new message.

It was from Aurora.

She and Ostrich were responsible for gathering information and intelligence on the Divine Mountain.

They had compiled a full report on the families and power players who had made their way up the mountain. But

one crucial detail had been omitted-the news about Ashton’s captivity.

“Aurora, why didn’t you report that to Commander Lowe as well?” Ostrich asked in confusion.

With his exceptional hearing, he was responsible for collecting intelligence. But when it cto strategy plans,

he was about as dense as an iron-headed warrior.

“Ms. Hattie Zelinsky toldnot to!” Aurora said with a worried expression.

“Why?” Ostrich was even more confused. “If Commander Lowe finds out, he’ll definitely go to Divine Mountain

tomorrow!”

Aurora's worry deepened. “Can't you see? It's a trap. Gautier and Mayor Zelinsky have orchestrated this Grand

Hunt. Everyone on that mountain wants Commander Lowe dead. If he charges in blindly, he won't make it out

alive.”

“D*mn it!” Ostrich gritted his teeth. “We'll take the Wolf Warrior Unit up the mountain with him. Let's see who

dares to touch him.”

Aurora sighed and shook her head. “You don’t get it. Ms. Hattie had informed Madam. The Wolf Warrior Unit

won't even make it into Zovince tomorrow. Even the hundred or so soldiers stationed here will have

their movements restricted.”

“Who has that kind of power? | don’t buy it!” Ostrich was growing increasingly agitated.

Yet, Aurora didn’t answer. She knew that the only way to keep Emmanuel safe was to stop him from going up the

mountain at all costs.

Just as Emmanuel finished reading Aurora’s message, he looked up and saw a stunning woman approaching him.

“Mackenzie, what brings you here?” He immediately smiled and stepped forward to greet her.

“You!” Mackenzie poked his forehead playfully. “You're always worried about others. Have you forgotten about

your own wife? I'm the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce now. Of course, I'd be here!”

Emmanuel scratched his head, grinning. “Haha, | thought you're here for me. | was getting excited!”

She rolled her eyes. “If | wasn’t here for you, do you think I'd just be passing by?”

“Huh?” he straightened his posture. “Mackenzie, what's wrong?”

Mackenzie sighed. “Do you have to go to Divine Mountain tomorrow?”

She knew the answer before he even spoke. The upcoming assembly was designed to kill him. Every major force

was gathering there. As his wife, she didn’t want him to take the risk.

“I have to go!” Emmanuel declared, “Ethan needs my protection!”

“But do you realize? The Zelinsky family has mobilized everything. Ezra has used his authority to deploy the

Imperial Guard and seize control of Divine Mountain.”

Mackenzie's voice trembled. “Tomorrow, the Imperial Guard will oversee everyone's safety. This is the Supreme

Court Act of Chanaca. Even Ethan can’t overrule it.”

Emmanuel nodded in acknowledgment.

Ezra is gambling his own career to secure Catherine's election. If the Imperial Guard fails to protect Ethan, Ezra

will take the blbut it won't weaken the Zelinsky family. They have lined up their successor. The person is

most likely to be Magnus!

Most people took years to pass the parliamentary examination. But Magnus completed it in just one shot. Not to

mention, he even ranks first.

Once Catherine is elected, appointing Magnus to any official position would be legitimate.

Mackenzie's eyes glistened.

But instead of arguing further, she stepped forward into his arms.

She understood that Emmanuel had to go for Chanaea’s sake. She didn’t want to lose him, but she had to

support

him no matter what.

As the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, she would ascend Divine Mountain as well. No matter what

happened, she would face it with her husband.

Emmanuel was momentarily stunned before holding her tightly in return. But their embrace didn’t last long.

Suddenly, a large squad of police officers marched toward them at a brisk pace.
