Love at the Wrong Table novel Chapter 2023

“Your Holiness, I do not think Mr. Willy is trustworthy!” 

Once Ken and his wife had left, Rhett spoke up from behind Mackenzie. 

As the Holy Guardian, it was his duty to protect the Saintess, and he felt he 

had to raise his concerns now. 

Mackenzie turned to him and gently asked, “Rhett, how is your injury?” 

tt 

“Thank you for asking, but this injury is nothing to worry about,” Rhett casually 

replied. 

Mackenzie nodded but still moved closer to inspect his wound. After 

checking, she sighed and said, “The Five Poison Sect’s strengths truly counter 

yours. You are so strong, yet you were injured by a mere woman. It is really a 

pity.” 

“Do not worry, Your Holiness. Before Emmanuel left, he taught me several

ways to counter and avoid poisons, I have been studying them for the port 

two days. I will not fall for their tricks so susily next time! 

Rhett spoke with confidence, 

“Oh? Emmanuel had time for that?” 

Mackenzie was surprised. Emmanuel had been in such a rush that day, 

staying by her side the whole time. She had not known he managed to do 

this. 

“Yes, he even gave me a book about it. I have already mastered some of the 

quicker techniques.” 

Rhett firmly continued, “Although my skills are still far below Emmanuel’s, they 

will definitely come in handy one day.” 

“Good. I trust you.” 

Mackenzie’s eyes were full of belief in him.

“Your trust is my greatest honor, Your Holiness.” 

Rhett placed one hand on his chest and spoke with deep respect. 

Even though Mackenzie had always told him to be less formal, treating him 

like an elder brother, he still acted this way. There was nothing she could do 

to change it. 

News of the failed assassination attempt on Mackenzie had already reached 

Zovince. 

In a simple house, Teddy was frowning as he spoke to Levi, “We tipped them 

off. Now my rivalry with Mackenzie is out in the open. This is terrible for my 

reputation!” 

Levi bowed and said, “Mr. Tanner, public opinion can always be controlled. Right now, everyone is focused on the three presidential candidates. You could take things even further if you want to achieve your goals!” 

Teddy gave a bitter smile. “Even if I wanted to push things further, it will be 

hard to do so. The Four Great Envoys are my final trump cord. All four of therm 

went after Mackenzie, and they still failed to kill her. What can I do now? 

Levi shook his head. “Mr. Tanner, there is no need to hide anything. I know you 

still have more trump cards. Your previous enemies were too weak so they 

were not worth using them on. However, to deal with Emmanuel and 

Mackenzie, you will need to play all your cards!” 

Ch? I have more trump cards?” 

Teddy acted confused. “I do not know of any others.” 

“Mr. Tanner, your family is not only strong because of its men. The women are 

just as remarkable! Twenty years ago, Jane Tanner, head of the Four 

Beauties of Zovince, changed the nation’s fate with a single dance. People 

still talk about it to this day.” 

Levi gave a hint.

“Ah, but Jane is dead… Oh! Are you talking about her?” 

Teddy interrupted himself, suddenly acting as if realization had struck him. 

Levi smiled. “Exactly. Jane may be gone, but the new Maestro Moretti is just 

as powerful. She is now secretly in control of the Five Poison Sect. If you ask 

her, she will definitely help you deal with Mackenzie!” 

Teddy’s brow furrowed, and he muttered, “That… might not be the right thing 

to do.” 

“Mr. Tanner, what are you worried about? She is your sister!” 

Levi stepped forward, looking anxious. 

“It might not do!” 

Teddy waved his hand repeatedly, but he did not explain himself, not even to 

Levi, his most trusted aide.

“Mr. Tanner, this is a rare opportunity! If Mackenzie dies, your re–election os 

Chanaea’s Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce is certain. You can then 

fully support your wife’s run for president. The entire nation will be under our 

control!” 

Levi continued to persuade him. 

“Let me think it over. My relationship with Isabella is not as simple as you 

think.” 

Teddy briefly explained, then changed the subject. “Emmanuel has arrived in 

Zovince. What has he been doing?” 

Levi had no choice but to put the West End matter aside and report, saying, “Zovince is not like the West End. This is Chanaea’s capital, and people here strictly abide to the law. With Emmanuel protecting Ethan, getting rid of Ethan will take careful planning. However, I do have a way to deal with Emmanuel

Teddy no longer pretended to be calm, how looking ankovs 

Emmanuel and Mackenzie were his biggest obsodes Once eyes of 

the way, everyone else would be easy to handle, 

“We can use the Lannister family to deal with him! Levi coldly said,denching 

his fist. 

“The Lannister family?” 

Teddy deliberately frowned. “Eric has been in seclusion for a long time and 

does not care about worldly matters. Gwain is no match for Emmanuel What 

could the Lannister family possibly do?” 

“That is not true!” 

Levi waved his hand, knowing Teddy was trying to bat him. Mr. Tanner, you are underestimating the Lannister family’s strength and Gwain’s potential 

“How could I be underestimating Gwain? Look at how many defeats he has

suffered. It would not be wrong to say he has been retreating at every turn. I 

think he is completely unworthy of marrying Yuna!” 

Teddy huffed in faux anger. 

“That is not true!” 

Levi waved his hand again. “The Lannister family has existed for centuries.
