Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 1707 

Sure enough, Freya compromised. 

“Alright, in that case, I must be the one to set the rules for the new Grim 

Reaper’s Duel!” 

Mackenzie was a master negotiator, deliberately asking for too much to 

begin with, waiting for the other side to bargain before revealing her true 

intentions. As expected, Freya could only nod in agreement, as this demand NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

was minor compared to Mackenzie’s earlier condition. 

Then, she quickly ordered the people behind her, including Yasmine, to leave. 

This left the two women alone, making Mackenzie feel like a caged bird with 

nothing to support her words. However, Mackenzie was clever; with just the 

two of them, she did not provoke Freya and even tried to build rapport. 

“Ms. Morgan, Hattie often mentioned you to me. I never thought I’d meet you 

here!” 

“Oh, Hattie.” Freya was slightly taken aback.

It was Yasmine who informed her that the Saintess wanted to see the 

Warlord, who then directed her to come since she was the queen of the 

island. Freya knew about Mackenzie’s relationship with Hattie, but she had no 

feelings left for the children she had left with the Zelinsky family. 

She had married Ezra for the organization’s grand plan, and after completing 

her mission, she hadn’t returned to the Zelinsky family for twenty years. 

“Yes, Hattie often talks about you, saying she misses her mother! It would be 

wonderful if you could bring her here too!” Mackenzie probed. 

She and Emmanuel had arrived in such a hurry that they hadn’t had time to 

contact outside forces. If they could also bring Hattie, there might be a 

chance to break through the Dark Night Islands from the outside. 

Unfortunately, Freya was no fool and remained cautious. She replied with a 

smile, “It is Hattie’s honor to befriend Your Holiness. However, I have many 

matters to attend to and cannot make arrangements at the moment. After 

Your Holiness gives birth on the island, I will certainly bring her to visit you!”

Freya’s watertight response left Mackenzie with no recourse. 

The two continued their conversation, but Mackenzie couldn’t gain any 

further advantage. The only bargaining chip she had was the power to set 

the rules for the Grim Reaper’s Duel, which she had to use carefully to help 

Emmanuel fight against the Airspace Group.

The following evening, Emmanuel, led by Aqua, returned to the island’s 

center. This time, he came as the leader of the Black Wolf Team, not only for 

registration but also to receive the latest rules and match schedule for the 

Grim Reaper’s Duel. 

The central region was larger than Emmanuel had imagined. The tower he 

had infiltrated last time was within the center, surrounded by many modern 

buildings. 

Emmanuel and Aqua, heavily guarded by the Airspace Group, entered the 

conference hall. 

13:32 Mon

Seizing the opportunity, Emmanuel observed the representatives of the 

island’s forces to understand the types of people–or rather, species- 

present on the island. After all, it was called Devil’s Island, so it might not be 

populated solely by humans. 

Suddenly, Emmanuel started, for he saw a familiar face from Yeringham. 

“Quintus!” Emmanuel shouted excitedly from a distance. 

He and Mackenzie had come all this way because of a letter from this guy. 

Finding him almost certainly meant finding Claudette, and Emmanuel could 

hardly contain his excitement. However, the conference hall was quite large, 

filled with a mix of characters, and Emmanuel’s shout immediately attracted 

everyone’s attention. 

“Who is that guy? He looks unfamiliar. I’ve never seen him before!” 

“Isn’t the girl beside him the Black Wolf Team’s logistic member?” 

“What’s going on? Is he the new leader of the Black Wolf Team?”

“This trash replaced last year’s champion, Xarri?! Haha, looks like the Black 

Wolf Team is doomed this year!” 

“Why isn’t Quell leading anymore? Did she give up? Haha…” 

The crowd began to chatter. 

Quintus was also very excited, finally seeing Emmanuel, which likely meant 

Mackenzie, his crush, was also on the island. 

“Silence! Everyone, quiet down!” 

The on–site supervisor of the Airspace Group shouted loudly. However, no 

one on this island was easy to handle, and mere words couldn’t calm them 

down. Emmanuel also wanted to reunite with Quintus as quickly as possible, 

paying no heed to the chaos. 

Just then, a gunshot rang out in the conference hall. 

Yasmine herself fired
