“Why are you glaring at me? I’ll really get tired!” Ashton looked like a child who had done
something wrong. At this moment, who could have imagined that she was a leading
female police officer?
Sure, she despised Emmanuel and wanted to scold him endlessly. However, she also had a
sense of morality. Her previous words almost jeopardized the couple’s relationship. While
she disliked Mackenzie, she never thought of using such underhanded tactics.
Seeing her expression, Emmanuel knew that she realized her mistake. He didn’t bother
scolding her and decided to go down quickly to avoid further complications.
On the other side, Mackenzie had a restless night. Emmanuel’s not returning home was
one aspect. Another reason was that, before going to sleep, she received a message from
Frederick, or rather, a report.
As Emmanuel’s close friend, Frederick valued the position Mackenzie provided him.
Leveraging some power granted by Mackenzie, along with assistance from Sheldon and
Ryder, Frederick diligently collected various information within the Terence Group.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat day, he prepared a report for Mackenzie. While the report didn’t contain explicit
evidence, there were numerous related data indicating the presence of spies within the
Terence Group’s research department. They had leaked substantial data from the Terence
Group. This even included Lara.
She had even provided relevant experimental data to Gautier. Although without the Heart
of the Sun, these data might not be very useful to outsiders, who knows?! After all, they
were sensitive business secrets! What was Lara really thinking?
Mackenzie didn’t think Lara was betraying the Quillen family. Could it be that she was just
infatuated with Gautier
and acted out of ignorance, damaging the family’s interests?
The next morning, Emmanuel still hadn’t returned home. Mackenzie arranged for Wally to
pick her up and take her
to the company.
Wally hadn’t driven her in a while, and since Mackenzie didn’t notify him in advance last
night, he arrived a bit later
than usual. Mackenzie was running later than her typical office hours when she received
an urgent call from Lexi.
“What did you say? Rioters attacking our research building?” Her face instantly turned
pale.
She had always known that once the Heart of the Sun entered commercial use, it would
attract thieves. However, she was only guarding against thieves and never anticipated a
full-blown assault.
“Wally, hurry, take me to the research building!”
“Ms. Quillen, this might be dangerous! Shouldn’t we wait for the police to handle it?”
While Wally wasn’t aware of the current situation, hearing Mackenzie mention thugs
attacking the research building hinted at a perilous situation. How could he allow the
young heiress to personally expose herself to such danger?!

“No, I must go to protect the Heart of the Sun!” Mackenzie’s mind was made up.
The Heart of the Sun wasn’t just the Quillen family’s treasure; it was also an heirloom
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpassed down from her father Her grandfather entrusted it to her, and she had to
safeguard it. Despite the layers of protection around the Heart of the Sun, what if these
criminals managed to take it before the police arrived?! Only she could deactivate the
security system, so she had to go herself.
“Alright then!” Wally had no choice but to comply.
Arriving outside the research building, it was indeed chaotic. Several areas had been
bombed, and many people lay in pools of blood, their fates unknown. Broken walls,
stained floors-the attackers had clearly forced their way in.
Mackenzie’s face grew increasingly pale. Despite her high position and experience, this
was the first time she had witnessed such a scene.
“Ms. Quillen, don’t go in. Over a dozen ruthless thugs have already entered. They’re
vicious and killing without mercy!” Security Captain Ivan Zavolinsky hurriedly advised
Mackenzie. He was covered in dirt and bloodstains, indicating a fierce struggle with the
attackers.
Behind him, there were over twenty security personnel from the Terence Group, including
Sheldon and Ryder. They also didn’t want Mackenzie to enter, having just witnessed the
attackers’ formidable strength. These were no ordinary criminals; they seemed to belong
to a large international organization, not some petty thieves.
“No, I must go in!” Mackenzie remained determined and sternly instructed, “Wally,
Captain Zavolinsky, take a few people with me! I’ll reward you handsomely afterward!”
