Love At The Wrong Table

Chapter 1708 

“No matter what grudges you have or what you need to say, this is not the 

place for it. Anyone who causes a disturbance will be shot on the spot!” 

No matter how skilled a martial artist was, they still feared a knife; even the 

most powerful expert couldn’t contend with a bullet. So, the group of 

fierce–looking individuals had to stop talking and moving, staring daggers at 

Yasmine and her people but not daring to defy her. 

“Now, proceed with the registration for the duel! 

“After successful registration, each representative will receive the new rules 

and match schedule! 

“Additionally, be reminded that the primary rules for this duel have been set 

by Her Holiness!” 

As soon as Yasmine finished speaking, the crowd erupted into murmurs 

again. Many people clearly knew who the Saintess was. Emmanuel’s eyes 

widened in surprise. Did Mackenzie set the rules? In that case, she will

“Quiet down! Begin lining up for registration now!” Yasmine fired another shot. 

into the air to restore order before leaving the scene. As she departed, she 

gave Emmanuel a profound look but did not speak to him. 

After successfully registering the Black Wolf Team, Emmanuel handed the 

rules and match schedule to Aqua without even looking at them and hurried 

out of the conference hall to find Quintus. 

As expected, Quintus, who had registered earlier, was waiting outside for 

Emmanuel. However, since free movement was not allowed on the central 

island, Quintus whispered in Emmanuel’s ear, “Come find me at the Solar 

Group after eight tonight!” He winked and then left. 

Aqua emerged from the conference hall, thinking that Emmanuel had rushed 

out because he had seen his wife, but instead, she saw him exchanging looks 

with a rough–looking man, which gave her goosebumps. 

Unaware of Aqua’s thoughts, Emmanuel eagerly grabbed her arm and

started walking away. 

“Mr. Emmanuel, why are you in such a hurry?” Aqua, puzzled and slightly 

worried, wondered if his wife was actually a man. 

No, it can’t be! Can it? Mr. Emmanuel’s so hot and powerful… 

“I’m taking you back first. After that, I have something to do, and I might not 

be back tonight,” Emmanuel said without looking back, oblivious to Aqua’s 

wild imagination. 

“Not coming back? What are you going to do? Find your wife?” Aqua asked, 

frightened by the idea. 

“Not my wife!” Emmanuel’s answer made Aqua breathe a slight sigh of relief, patting her chest. But before she could fully relax, Emmanuel continued, “I 

need to find a dear friend. I have a lead on her whereabouts, and she’s very 

important to me!” 

“What?!” Aqua shouted, all her goosebumps returning. Her mind filled with

images of Emmanuel and Quintus flirting. No… Tell me that’s not it! 

“Mr. Emmanuel, why… why are you…” Aqua was distressed. Mr. Emmanuel was 

perfect in every way except for his peculiar taste in partners. But before she 

could finish her sentence, they stepped out of the Airspace Group’s weak 

surveillance zone, and a woman blocked their path. 

The woman was very tall, about five feet and nine inches, almost the same 

height as Emmanuel. Her slender figure made her look even taller and very 

well–proportioned. She had striking features, with blonde hair, and licked her 

lips while looking at Emmanuel, exuding extreme sensuality. 

Unfortunately, Emmanuel was impervious to such foreign beauty. Instead, 

sensing the danger she posed, he instinctively shielded Aqua behind him. 

“Mr. Emmanuel, be careful! This is Anna Letlow, one of the three powerhouses 

of the Ophanim Clan, known as the golden mermaid!” Aqua whispered 

nervously, clutching Emmanuel’s shirt. 

Emmanuel had heard about the Ophanim Clan during his chats with Aqua. 

Chapter 1708 The Golden Mermaid 

They were the rulers of the southern part of the Dark Night Islands and fierce 

competitors who had fought the Black Wolf Team for the duel last year. 

Anyone who could become one of the three powerhouses of the Ophanim 

Clan was likely as powerful as Vachon, and her gaze carried even more 

animosity than his. 

“So, you’re the new leader of the Black Wolf Team, huh? You look pretty weak!” 

Anna sashayed toward Emmanuel, mocking, “And quite the lecher, huh? Are 

you rushing back to stick yourself inside Aqua? You wouldn’t have used your 

to entice Quell into giving you the leader position, would you?”
