When Nathan mentioned investigating the shooter, Emmanuel suddenly remembered Ashton was still waiting outside the building. He quickly spoke up, "Nathan, if you want to investigate the attacker, Ashton might be able to help. She used to be a detective, after all!"

"She's here?" Nathan perked up with excitement, but the movement made his wounds flare up, forcing him to lower his voice. "I've been wanting to see her.

We still haven't settled our score!"

“Nathan, let me remind you," Veronica, ever the sharp one, caught on to the meaning behind her brother's expression and immediately warned him. "Dad has already arranged for you to marry a woman from the Tanner family, and the date of the marriage is approaching. Stop getting tangled up with other women. It's time to break up with all your girlfriends."

“Haha, don't worry, Veronica, I know what I'm doing!" Nathan did have a

weakness for beautiful women and often fell for them easily, but he

genuinely liked his fiancee, Xylie Tanner, so he had no objection to the marriage.

However, Emmanuel frowned deeply upon hearing about the marriage. Back when they were in Yeternia, he had learned that Nathan's fiancee was Xylie. At the time, he thought it was absurd, but now he realized there was much more at play behind it all.

It finally became clear to him: the Tanner family had been planning this for a long time. They aimed to use this marriage to gain the Chapman family's support, ensuring Catherine would have a smooth path to becoming president. This was a classic case of a political marriage-one of those intricate strategies that politicians excel at, where every move is

pre-planned and perfectly timed.

The Tanner family was already in alliance with the Lannister family, and

Catherine, who was from the Zelinsky family, was married to Teddy. If Nathan married Xylie, it would almost guarantee that Catherine would gain the support of the Four Great Aristocratic Families. When that happened, Ethan and Mason wouldn't stand a chance against her in the presidential race. Emmanuel couldn't help but marvel at the cunning behind it all.

With these thoughts swirling in his head, Emmanuel felt a strong urge to

disrupt this marriage and quickly offered, "Nathan, since you and Ashton have something to discuss, let me go get her."

“Uh, Master? Is that really necessary? I can have the servants-” Nathan tried

to object, feeling that having his master personally fetch Ashton was a bit excessive. After all, Emmanuel was his only master, a man of high status, and Ashton was just an ordinary woman. Why should he go to such trouble? But efore Nathan could finish, Emmanuel was already on his way out. "Emmanuel, how did it go? Did they let you see Nathan?" Ashton immediately

asked, her voice tense when she saw Emmanuel step outside.

Emmanuel, who was no longer the naive young man of the past but

someone who had experienced all sorts of emotions, could sense what was

going on from Ashton's expression. He decided to ask directly, "Ashton, I'm going to ask you something, and I hope you'll answer me honestly."

"What is it?" Ashton blinked in surprise. Seeing how serious Emmanuel's tone was, she knew this wasn't going to be an ordinary question.

"Do you like Nathang"

"W-what? I-"Despite trying to prepare herself, Ashton couldn't help but blush

lightly at the question. Once upon a time, her ideal man had been Emmanuel! She never imagined he would confront her with such a direct question.

"L. I don't know," Ashton replied evasively.

But from her flustered demeanor, Emmanuel had already deduced the

answer. He didn't hold back, saying, "If you do like Nathan, perhaps I could

play matchmaker for you. Of course, whether it works out or not depends on

how you both feel."

W-what?" Ashton was at a loss for words.

Not in a million years would she have predicted a scenario like this. In her

mind, Nathan had always been the ultimate playboy! And yet, now, she

wasn't immediately rejecting the idea.

"You don't have to give me an answer right away. Let's just go inside and see him," Emmanuel said as he led Ashton into Nathan's hospital room. "Huh, you're still alive. I thought you wouldn't make it, seeing as you took the bullet and coughed up blood last night. Didn't expect you to bounce back so quickly-you really are hard to kill!" Ashton's words were cold and cutting, but

she added with a smirk, "Looks like you're not completely useless after all "Haha, of course not! I'm the successor of the War God. Do you think I'd die What easily? This little injury is nothing to the future War God!" Nathan boasted, clearly enjoying himself, the pain seemingly less bothersome as he grinned. "1 scored way higher than you last night, right? You lost, so now you have to admit defeat and become my disciple. Fair is fair!"

"As if!" Ashton immediately reneged. "The match isn't even over yet, so why

should I concede?"

"Oh, come on! You're going back on your word! Just as they say-women and villains are hard to deal with!" Nathan grumbled, frustrated but also amused

by the back-and-forth.

"The match wasn't completed, so it's a draw. I'm not even counting it as you

forfeiting when you left prematurely. Once you're better, we'll settle this

properly!" Ashton challenged him, setting up a rematch.

"Fine, bring it!" Nathan responded enthusiastically.

Watching the two of them bicker, Emmanuel and Veronica couldn't help but

feel like they were witnessing something more than just rivalry. It seemed like

there was a bit of chemistry between the two.

Just then, someone knocked on the door and requested to speak with

Veronica. “Ms. Veronica, the Tanner family is here to visit Mr. Nathan. His

fiancee is with them. Should I let them in?"

Veronica was about to respond when Emmanuel quickly interjected, "Ms.

Veronica, may I have a word with you?"

Veronica, being sharp as always, immediately guessed what he was thinking.

She instructed the servant, "Have the Tanner family wait for a bit. I will

personally greet them shortly."

"Yes, Ms. Veronica." The servant left, and Veronica followed Emmanuel to

another room.

Emmanuel wasted no time, speaking as soon as they were alone. "Ms.

Veronica, forgive my bluntness, but I don't think Nathan should marry the

Tanner family's young lady. And I'm not sure she's even the woman Nathan truly loves."

Veronica chuckled at this. "Mr. Lowe, while you may be Nathan's master, 1

believe the decision about his marriage should rest with the Chapman

family, don't you?"

"You're absolutely right," Emmanuel agreed, “But the marriage should also be

Nathan's decision."

Veronica paused for a moment, considering his words, before finally nodding

"I understand, I'll help you this time."

Emmanuel grew serious. "Thank you, but this isn't just a favor for me it's also

for the Chapman family. This is a matter of great importance that could impact the future of both the family and even Chanaea,"

Veronica smiled softly. "It seems you have a grand vision, Mr. Lowe, and are

always thinking about the fate of the nation."

Emmanuel wasn't sure if her words were a compliment or a jab, so he simply

ave a wry smile, “I'd love to just live a carefree life with my family, but as

long as my blood still runs hot, I want to do something meaningful for Changea," "Thope what you're doing turns out to be good for everyone," Veronica replied with a soft smile before leaving the room to meet with the Tanner family. Emmanuel quietly followed. This was a major issue, and he couldn't sit by idly

-especially since he had been the one to rescue Xylie from Yeternia in the

first place. When Veronica entered the room where Emmanuel had been greeted

earlier, she saw Levi and Xylie seated, sipping tea as they waited.

To be honest, seeing Xylie's beautiful and gentle demeanor, Veronica couldn't

help but like her. This woman seemed far more suited to be a Chapman daughter-in-law than Yuna.

The moment Levi saw Veronica, he immediately set his teacup down and

stood up excitedly, offering flattery. "Haha, to meet the most graceful of the

Four Beauties of Zovince-what a privilege! Ms. Veronica Chapman, it's a pleasure!"
