Emmanuel let out a soft sigh. Now that Terence had caught on, there was no use in keeping it a secret.

After a brief moment of thought, he admitted, “Grandpa, I can share something with you, but you must
promise to keep it a secret. If this gets out, I’ll be left with no option but to face dire consequences.”
“Is it that serious?” Terence raised an eyebrow.
“Yes, Grandpa. Do you still want to hear it?” Emmanuel gazed at Terence earnestly, his look conveying
immense
pressure.
Emmanuel let out a soft sigh. Now that Terence had figured it out, there was no point in continuing to
hide.
“Haha, of course, I’m all ears. I need to hear it.” Terence chuckled.
As he neared the end of his life, what did it matter if he carried a secret with him? What truly mattered
was his curiosity about his grandson-in-law’s real identity and the kind of man chosen for his
granddaughter.
“I’m the retired Wolf Warrior from the Northern Region, currently burdened with a challenging mission.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What?” Even though Terence had mentally prepared himself, Emmanuel’s confession still left him in
shock.
“Three and a half years ago, the Chairman of the Chanaea Chamber of Commerce colluded with
foreign enemies, sparking a war. The Northern Region defended the Chanaea border, resulting in the
loss of tens of thousands of heroic youths. The Wolf Warrior Corps also crumbled in that battle.”
“I’m currently laying low in Yeringham, operating under a false identity, biding my time for the right
moment to strike against the enemy nation. I’m seeking revenge for Chanaea, for the Northern Region,
and for my fallen comrades.” Now that Emmanuel had disclosed his identity, he had no qualms about
sharing his ultimate goal with Terence.
“The Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, Teddy Mole?” Terence gasped, his expression betraying
disbelief.
As the wealthiest man in Yeringham, Terence was well-acquainted with this influential figure. Compared
to Teddy’s wealth and status, Terence considered himself insignificant. He couldn’t help but think that
Emmanuel was planning to assassinate someone of Teddy’s stature.
“That’s correct.” Emmanuel nodded.
“Are you aware of his close connections with many influential families and corporations? Even if you
manage to assassinate him successfully, it could trigger significant chaos in Chanaea. The Quillen
family might end up being entangled in the fallout alongside you,” Terence cautioned, offering
Emmanuel some reassurance.
Even though Terence knew the target of Emmanuel’s mission, he had no intention of distancing himself
from Emmanuel.
“Of course, I’m aware,” Emmanuel affirmed. “That’s why I’ve devised a plan to oust him from the
position of Chamber of Commerce President, isolate him, and then eliminate him.”
“Oh…” Terence looked slightly flustered. He leaned on his cane, pacing back and forth before
continuing, “So, your strategy involves leveraging the Quillen family to join the Chamber of Commerce
and then taking action to bring Teddy down?”
“That’s right.” Emmanuel nodded, appreciating the savvy Terence who saved him from having to
explain further.
“You didn’t plan this from the beginning, did you?” Terence eyed Emmanuel with suspicion. Being the
Wolf Warrior, Emmanuel might have been feigning weakness all along.
“Grandpa, please don’t get the wrong idea. I only took on this mission after marrying Mackenzie.”
Emmanuel clarified swiftly, “If you don’t want the Quillen family to be involved, I won’t use them for

“Hmm…” Terence furrowed his brows, entering a deep contemplation. After a considerable pause, he
sighed. “I’ve heard about some of Teddy’s actions. That man does indeed have a notorious reputation.
There’s a rumor circulating that when he was young, he went as far as killing his brothers to seize
power, leading to the disintegration of the Tanner Family.”
He continued, “In his quest to become the President of the Chamber of Commerce, he resorted to
assassinating those who opposed him, leaving his hands stained with blood. Inever imagined he’d go
so far as to deliberately collude with foreign enemies, sparking a war that drenched the Chanaea-
border in blood. Ah… Chanaea is unfortunate to have such a villain.”
Emmanuel listened in silence, the anger in his heart reigniting.
For the sake of personal gain, he sacrificed tens of thousands of brothers in the Northern Region, and
the Wolf Warrior Army vanished as a consequence. He vowed that revenge must be taken.
“Emmanuel, this matter is of great importance. It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I don’t have the
ability.” Terence also admitted, “Regardless, I’ll transfer the Quillen family’s assets to Mackenzie. That
won’t change. Whether Mackenzie decides to assist you or not, that’s a decision she’ll make in the
future.”
