Love at the 1906

With William’s forces now deeply entrenched in Yeringham, Emmanuel’s
martial skills seemed unlikely to tip the scales. If everything went according
to plan, taking out Emmanuel today would pave the way for him to
effortlessly assume the position of president of the Nuthana Chamber of
Commerce.
As Emmanuel made his way to the third floor, he was accompanied only by
Sage and Angela, who remained to observe the unfolding drama. The
unfamiliar faces around him were a sign that William had been working
behind the scenes, meticulously establishing connections that couldn’t have
been built in just a few months without effort.
“Here comes the Grandmaster of Nuthana!” The shout echoed through the
room, drawing the attention of nearly everyone on the third floor. Their
expressions were anything but welcoming, with sinister smiles that spoke of
ill intentions. Clearly, they believed that Emmanuel had walked straight into a
trap of his own making.

Unperturbed by their menacing stares, Emmanuel’s gaze swept the room
until it settled on William. He approached William with steady, unhurried
strides. William, who seemed brimming with confidence earlier, now showed
visible signs of anxiety, gulping with unease.
One must pass through Orchard Road in order to travel from Yeringham
Police Station to the Yeringham Prestige Hotel. The new Chief of Police, Reed Walters, had been promoted recently following Sage’s departure. He was tasked by the Cadigan Family to apprehend Emmanuel and Eve long ago. Today, he had been assigned to the Yeringham Prestige Hotel with a dual mission: to apprehend the offenders and ensure Mr. Verkade’s safety.
While Reed might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, he was no fool. The
hotel was hosting the most prestigious business gala in Nuthana, with top–notch security and a squad of armed bodyguards ensuring everything
went smoothly. Anyone daring enough to cause trouble at such a
high–profile event would need to possess an extraordinary level of
confidence in their position. Adding to the intrigue, it seemed that only two
people were responsible for the disturbance.

Reed, bound by duty to follow his orders was determined to uncover the
identities and motives of these audacious intruders. Yet, just as they got
close to the hotel, their path was abruptly blocked by three imposing black
SUVS, their menacing presence unmistakable.
The wail of sirens sliced through the air, causing an uproar among the
surrounding crowd. Panic spread among the onlookers–Who on earth has the gall to block a police car?
Inside the car, Reed was jolted by the sudden brake, causing him to lurch
forward. Frowning in confusion, he demanded, “What’s going on?”
*Captain, someone’s blocking our way!” the deputy quickly reported.
Reed had initially thought that the obstruction might be a ploy to hinder their mission to the Yeringham Prestige Hotel Yet upon seeing the three
military–grade vehicles, his heart skipped a beat. Whoever was behind this
had to hold significant power within the military.
“Who goes there?” Reed demanded, stepping out of the car with his

subordinates. “We’re on a mission. Clear the way immediately!”
The moment he finished speaking, an armored vehicle’s door swung open to
reveal a statuesque woman clad in a red trench coat and sunglasses. Reed
felt a shiver run down his spine as a sense of familiarity washed over him.
“Well, well, if it isn’t Mr. Walters!” The woman remarked, her voice carrying a
blend of surprise and dominance.
“Ms. Thompson, right?” he asked with a hint of awe.
“You’ve got it,” Eve confirmed with an assertive tone. “We’re in the middle of a
critical task at the Yeringham Prestige Hotel. Stay away for your own sake.”
“You’ve got to be joking!” Reed and his subordinates were stunned.
What sort of mission calls for military support? And how did they manage to
gain such high–level authorization?
The fact that she was here signaled that this was no ordinary mission.

Ms. Thompson, I’m afraid I can’t follow your instructions.” he quickly
responded. While I respect your status as a former commander of the Wolf
Warrior unit, the Wolf Brigade is no longer part of the Chanaea military, so-*
Before he could finish, Eve unveiled a gleaming insignia and a green
identification badge. His eyes grew wide with disbelief, and he trembled from
head to toe, overwhelmed by the weight of the credentials.
Hove you taken a good look?” she asked, her tone icy.
V–tes, I’ve seen it cleaty,” he answered, barely containing his fear.
“So, will you clear the road now, or do you wish to challenge us?” she pressed.
