“Your Holiness, you’re as sharp as ever! You understand people better than 1
do!” Rhett admitted, genuinely impressed.
Mackenzie gave a slight smile as she watched the Blade Battalion claim a
sweeping victory. The sight filled her with a deep sense of satisfaction.
How fortunate Emmanuel is to have friends and subordinates like them!
“Hahaha! You bunch of fools! Did you really think you could just waltz in here
and steal our goods? There’s a phrase for this–walking right into a trap!”
Quintus roared with laughter, tossing two more bandits to the ground with
ease.
At the back of the bandit group, their leader, known for always hanging back
to manage the situation, realized the tide had turned against them. He didn’t
want to abandon his men and run, knowing that if they were captured and
sent to prison, he’d be left with nothing. His gang would crumble, and he’d
have no future.

When he caught sight of Mackenzie in the moonlight, a plan formed in his
mind. If he could just take her hostage, he might still have a chance.
It surprised him that such a large force would have a woman as its
backbone.
Just as the leader was about to lunge at Mackenzie, he suddenly found
himself suspended in mid–air, completely immobilized.
Rhett had lifted him effortlessly with one hand.
Panic surged through the bandit leader.

Though a martial artist himself, he wasn’t skilled enough to even come close
to Rhett’s overwhelming strength. He realized in an instant that even if he had
a hundred men with him, they wouldn’t stand a chance against this one man.
“No wonder you’re so bold. You knew exactly how to bait us with those
supplies… You all are too clever!”
The bandit leader in the felt hat looked up at Mackenzie as if she were a

queen bathed in moonlight.
Hearing the commotion, Anthony and the others poked their heads out of the
wagons. Seeing Mackenzie’s team secure a total victory, with even the bandit
leader restrained by Rhett, they couldn’t help but marvel at her authority.
The noise caught the attention of Anthony Quail and the others, who peered
out from their wagons. When they saw that Mackenzie’s forces had
completely routed the bandits and that their leader was firmly in Rhett’s grip,
they could only marvel at the sight.
The Chairman of the Nuthana Chamber of Commerce truly is like a queen,
commanding everything with ease!
“What’s your name? Who are you? Are you the one leading the charge to
steal these vital supplies?” Mackenzie asked coldly, her gaze as sharp as a
knife.
“M–My name is Isaias Bradford from Silvergate. I’m from Silvergate, and yes, I
led the raid to take these supplies bound for Riverhaven!”

Isaias gritted his teeth, showing some loyalty to his men. “I’ll take
responsibility for what we did. Let my men go, and I’ll go with you and serve
my time.”
“Hahaha!”
Quintus burst into laughter. “Typical bandit logic! Do you think you can take
the fall for all of them? Are you here to make us laugh?”
Mackenzie didn’t laugh, though. She could tell from the bandit leader’s eyes
that he truly didn’t understand the law.
Of course, if he had any respect for the law, he wouldn’t have done this in the
first place.
“Isaias Bradford, do you realize your actions could cost thousands of disaster
victims their lives? Where’s your conscience?” Mackenzie asked coldly.
“Conscience? Can a conscience fill our stomachs?”
The leader sneered. “We’re starving in the West End. People die of hunger

thought for us? My parents starved to death because of poverty! If someone
has to die, it won’t be me or my men!”
“You sound like you’ve got a point, but it’s all twisted logic!”
Mackenzie retorted, “People work hard and earn their money legally, and how
they spend it is their business. But when you steal critical supplies meant to
save lives, that’s a crime. You deserve whatever punishment comes your
way!”
“Hmph! I’m in your hands now, do whatever you want.”
The leader turned his head, but not without a warning. “But I’ll tell you this-
you may have bested us, but we serve the Five Poison Sect. If anything
happens to us, they won’t let you go.”
“Oh, really?”
Quintus chuckled. “You steal supplies meant for the taxpayers and then turn

Chapter 2013 You Don’t Know Who You’re Facing
around and pay tribute to some lowlife sect? What are you? Their lapdogs?”
“Say what you will.”
The leader smirked. “You’re a skilled martial artist and well–equipped, but the
Five Poison Sect has plenty of experts too. They have a hundred ways to
make sure you don’t leave this alive. Don’t believe me? Try your luck!”
At those words, Anthony and the others turned pale. Some even urged
Mackenzie to reconsider.
“Tie them up and hand them over to the authorities!”
Mackenzie commanded Quintus without hesitation.
“On it!”
He immediately carried out her command.
Mackenzie then turned to Anthony. “As we discussed, we’re here to take down
the Five Poison Sect and restore peace to the merchants in the West End.”

Anthony sighed and nodded. “I know. I’m just afraid that even you might not
be able to defeat them, Ms. Quillen. If that happens, well all be dragged into
the mess.”
“With that kind of cowardice, you don’t deserve to be a chairman. You might
as well go home and farm!”
Mackenzie, clearly irritated, snapped back at him before getting into her car
Anthony was left speechless, and with no other choice, he and his men
followed her in a hurry.
After dealing with the bandits, Mackenzie wasted no time. After all, countless
disaster victims were waiting for the supplies to save their lives. She
instructed Quintus to tie up the bandits and leave them there for the police
to handle, and they pressed on toward Riverhaven.
After two long days and nights of travel, by the third day, the supplies finally
reached the hardest–hit disaster area.
Cheers erupted from the crowd of survivors.

“We finally have food and clothes!”
“Thank goodness! We’re going to make it!”
“Did you hear? It’s all thanks to the President of Nuthana!”

1 heard the president is a woman, and she’s not only beautiful but
kind–hearted. She led the team herself, fought through the mountain bandits,
and brought us the supplies!”
“She’s like an angel sent from heaven!”
The story of Mackenzie quickly spread among the survivors, and like most
tales, it grew in the telling. Before long, Mackenzie was being hailed as a
heavenly angel.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel, who had stayed behind in Riverhaven, heard the
rurnors. Following the trail of stories, he finally tracked down his wife at a
large relief center, busy overseeing the handover of supplies.
“Mackenzie!”

When the two reunited, they almost recreated a scene straight out of a fairy
tale.
Luckily, Lexi was there and quickly intervened, “Ms. Quillen, why don’t you go
on a date with Emmanuel? I can handle things here.”
“Thanks, Lexi! I owe you one!”
Mackenzie wasted no time handing over the tasks to Lexi and walked off
hand in hand with Emmanuel, heading to a modest hotel nearby.
Inside, Felicity was soothing their grandson to sleep with the help of two
attendants.
Emmanuel could barely contain himself. He rushed over and gently picked up
his drowsy son.
“Uwaaaah…”

Unexpectedly, little Caden began to cry at the top of his lungs, refusing to be
consoled no matter what. Emmanuel, fumbling and flustered, found himself
in a very awkward situation.
What a little rascal!
“See? You’re never around. No wonder your son doesn’t even recognize you!”
Felicity teased, reaching out to take her grandson back. However, Mackenzie
gently stopped her with a glance.
