Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 972

Emmanuel grew increasingly puzzled as he overheard their conversation.

Ex

Templar Valor seemed like a righteous sect. Did the sect leader truly intend to cause trouble just for the sake of one

gang leader?

Could this be a trap?

“Mr. Lowe, please don’t go!”

Red couldn’t help but voice her concerns as she rushed out, “Alfwhit Zamora is the strongest expert in our town.

You can’t possibly defeat him!”

Frankly, Emmanuel had no intention of going, even without her saying all those things.

He wouldn’t be rewarded for winning against the sect leader. Plus, there was even a risk of getting beaten if he lost.

Who would be foolish enough to walk into that?

‘Hmph! Trust me, this issue will never be resolved if you don’t go!”

When Philips caught sight of Red, he appeared even more confident as he threatened, hissing, “I know you and that

Shane guy are experts! Sure, you can leave, no problem. However, don’t forget that that girl and her family can’t

possibly escape from our clutches!”

Emmanuel immediately frowned at his words.

Shane became even more infuriated as he roared in displeasure, “D*mn it! Whoever wants to mess with me—my

senior brother, come at me! Don’t you dare lay a finger on other innocent people!”

He realized halfway through that his words were a little off. So, he cleverly changed ‘me’ to ‘my senior

brother’.

Nonetheless, he regretted his declaration the moment he said it!

He initially wanted to show off his heroic side in front of Red. Would Red think of him as sleazy after this?

“Emmanuel, let’s go to Templar Valor.’

Just then, Terence walked out of the establishment and decided on Emmanuel’s behalf.

Emmanuel was slightly confused upon hearing Terence’s choice. Regardless, he quickly realized that there had to

be some connection between Terence and Templar Valor. He really couldn’t think of any other possibilities.

Since Terence said he wanted to go, they had no choice but to make this trip. After all, Terence was his wife’s

grandfather!

Thu,

“Let’s go!”

Alas, Red became extremely worried the moment they agreed to Terence’s words!

In her mind, it didn’t matter how powerful Mr. Lowe was, as he couldn’t possibly be a match for the Templar Valor’s

sect leader!

I need to stop them! But… What can I do?

All the villagers shared the same opinion, mainly because they rarely traveled to big cities and preferred to stay in

their little town. So, in their minds, Templar Valor was the number one sect in the world. Therefore, it was only

natural to assume that their sect leader was invincible.

Thus, when they saw Emmanuel and the others following Mr. Caver and heading toward Templar Valor, several

curious villagers started spreading the news.

By the time Emmanuel arrived at the entrance of Templar Valor, there were hundreds of people following behind

him out of curiosity. As a result, the streets became uncomfortably crowded!

“Senior brother, why do I feel like we’re here to challenge someone for their place and rank in the martial arts

hall?”

Shane approached Emmanuel and raised five fingers, saying, “I’ve seen this scene on TV. When the protagonist

barges into someone else’s martial arts hall, they usually shout arrogantly, ‘I want to fight 10 people!'”

Emmanuel stared at his junior brother in exasperation.

It seemed that this kid had been watching far too many TV shows, and all those shows probably had the same actor

playing the protagonist, to boot.

Besides, why did he say 10 but only extend five fingers? Should I tell Master to hire a math tutor when I return?

Terence followed them, his placid smile never wavering from his face.

“Halt!”

They were promptly stopped at the entrance by the disciples of Templar Valor.

The person leading the group was none other than the purple-robed senior sister who had her butt slapped by

Blake last night.

“Ms. Ruskin, I was ordered by the sect leader to bring Emmanuel to Templar Valor!” Philips said in a flattering tone

as he tried to please the purple-robed woman.

It was clear that this gang leader was inferior to the likes of Templar Valor.

“Hmph, don’t call me that. I am not your sister!” Ms. Ruskin responded to Philips snidely. Then, she looked at

Emmanuel before saying, “Were you the ones who caused a commotion at the restaurant yesterday? Do you think

the people of Anchortown are easy to bully?”

Shane instinctively blurted in rage, “I used to think that only ugly people would be detestable. So, I’ve never

imagined that people who look like actual human beings are capable of being disgusting!”

“You! You tub of lard! What did you just say to me?!”

Ms. Ruskin immediately lost her temper right then and there.

“Hey, fatty. Did you just imply that I’m a despicable person?!” She angrily pointed at Shane, exuding an imposing

aura.

Shane immediately donned a playful smile and retorted, “Ah, Ms. Ruskin, was it? You have gravely misunderstood

me. I said some people who look like humans can be disgusting. However, I have never said anything about you

looking like a human!’

Pfft!

Some onlookers behind couldn’t help but burst into laughter after hearing such a statement.

“You fat f*ck! You’re asking for trouble!”

Ms. Ruskin turned red with anger and didn’t hesitate to attack Shane.

“Wow. Talk about playing dirty!”

Although Shane was chubby, he was actually quite agile. So, he simply leaned away from the attack before swaying

right back and knocking Ms. Ruskin off her feet. Thus, the battle ended before it could start, as Shane had

successfully made Ms. Ruskin fall on her butt instead.

Ouch!

Unfortunately, Ms. Ruskin’s butt was still swollen from the two slaps that Blake dealt last night. Now, she was in so

much pain after this fall that she immediately broke into a cold sweat.
