“Yes!” Mackenzie responded without hesitation. She and Claudette were very

different types of women–Mackenzie was always brimming with confidence,

and in this matter, she was even more certain of her capabilities.

Isabella smiled faintly. “I won’t comment on whether my brother is a good

man, but under his leadership as chairman of the Chamber of Commerce,

Chanaea’s economy has advanced year after year, and the commercial

data keeps improving. That shows he is capable of holding that position.”

That progress is the result of millions of people’s hard work across Chanaea,”

Mackenzie quickly argued. “Who’s to say the economy wouldn’t improve even

faster with someone else in charge?”

Isabella chuckled again. “I admire your confidence, Ms. Quillen. But many

people are overly confident in themselves, only to make a mess of things.

How can you guarantee that, if you take the position, you’ll do better than my

brother and benefit Chanaea’s citizens?”

Mackenzie remained calm and composed, her thoughts clear as she

answered, “You’re right, Maestro Moretti. This is a world where success

defines heroes. Any promises made in words are just to inspire confidence

because no one can prove the future before it happens.”

Her response was measured, and it didn’t fall into any traps. Isabella nodded

slightly, impressed. Many would have stumbled, either panicking or making

empty, boastful claims.

“That’s exactly why I need the chance to prove myself!” Mackenzie continued.

“I need to take the position as chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and,

three years from now, show you that I’ve lived up to the promise I’m making

today. Right now, all I can pledge to you is that if I take on that role, I won’t

form factions, persecute my rivals, or pursue personal gain. I won’t secretly

Wage wars for power or wealth. And if I don’t perform better than Teddy, I’ll

accept any punishment.”

Her words were powerful, carrying a sense of justice and conviction. But

Isabella responded with a disdainful laugh. “Those are just empty platitudes,

the kind anyone can say. I’m not interested in hearing such pretty promises.”

Mackenzie trembled slightly, quickly offering a humble smile. “Please

enlighten me then, Maestro.”

Isabella stood for the second time, turning her back to Mackenzie and gazing

out the window. Slowly, she spoke, “What do terms like ‘forming factions‘ and

‘personal gain‘ really mean? What does it mean to ‘eliminate rivals‘? All praise

and criticism are defined by the victor. My brother took the position as

chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, and that inevitably means he

epresents the interests of a certain group. Of course, there are many who

oppose him. Should he allow them to hinder his policies and throw the

business world into chaos?

“When you’re in a position of power, you need to wield real authority. If these

people obstruct his governance, he has no choice but to remove them to

maximize the overall benefit. From the perspective of those who suffer, he

may seem like a devil. But to those who benefit, his actions are justifiable.

Survival of the fittest–those who criticize my brother are either coming from

a different perspective or have ulterior motives.”

Mackenzie listened silently, ready to respond, but Isabella raised her hand,

signaling her to wait as she continued. “You might think, Ms. Quillen, that

because I’m defending my brother, we must be close. But the truth is, I

suspect he’s the one who killed our eldest brother to seize power. Even so, the

act remains that he’s the victor.

“He has stabilized Chanaea’s business landscape for years without any

major collapses. That proves his competence. So, why take the risk of

replacing him when he’s maintaining stability?”

Mackenzie finished listening and couldn’t help but applaud lightly.

“Ms. Quillen, don’t you agree with my reasoning?” Isabella asked.

Mackenzie shook her head and spoke, plainly, “As you said, Maestro, different

perspectives lead to different opinions. You and I have no personal grudge,

only a difference in right and wrong. But between Teddy and me, there’s no

right or wrong–only hatred.

“He burned down the Quillen Residence, killed my mother–in–law, and took

the lives of many innocent people in my family. I must bring him down and

see him brought to justice to honor the memory of those who died at the

Quillen Residence. Proving that I’m better suited for his position is secondary

–it’s just another reason I’m fighting for that seat.”

Isabella quietly listened as Mackenzie finished speaking, then offered a faint

smile. “Thank you, Ms. Quillen, for your honesty. I’ve seen the full picture now.”

Mackenzie followed up, “I must say, I’m also amazed by your detachment

Maestro. You suspect Teddy of killing your brother, yet you choose to remain

indifferent.”

Isabella smiled again. “As I said before, this world is governed by survival of

the fittest. If we keep seeking revenge for wrongs, there will never be an end

to it.”

Mackenzie responded candidly, “That’s something I cannot accept, and

nelther can Emmanuel. We are determined to uncover the truth behind the

Quillen family massacre and bring the culprit to justice–along with the one

responsible for starting the war that killed thousands in the Northern Region

and the Wolf Warrior Unit. If there is no justice in this world, then what

meaning is left for the so–called survivors?”

Isabella nodded slightly. “Ms. Quillen, your reasoning is valid, and I understand

your perspective. You may leave.”

Mackenzie let out a quiet breath and respectfully bowed. “Thank you for your

hospitality, and thank you for using your name to call for donations for the

disaster victims. On behalf of the officials, I express our gratitude, Maestro

Moretti.”

“Mm.” Isabella simply nodded again, saying nothing more.

Mackenzie slowly exited the room.

Yuna, seeing Mackenzie walking out unscathed, was visibly shocked. How

could her aunt have spared her?!

“Mackenzie! Are you alright?” Quintus rushed over as soon as she stepped

outside. “I heard Maestro Moretti asked to see you alone, and I was worried

she might harm you! I was ready to deal with her people if anything

happened.”

Mackenzie shot him a look. “Don’t be rash. Maestro Moretti is a wise and

enlightened person. We have no grievances, so why would she kill me?”

“Ms. Quillen, what did she say to you? Isn’t she here to support Teddy?” Lexi

asked, curious.

Mackenzie wasn’t entirely sure either, so she decided not to elaborate.

Instead, she turned to Quintus and asked, “Where’s Mr. Quail? How’s the

fundraising going?”

Quintus laughed heartily. “That gloomy old man is probably grinning ear to

ear now! Maestro Moretti’s influence is unbelievable. I reckon anyone in

Vinehurst with anything to spare has donated it to the disaster relief by now!”

Mackenzie nodded, adding, “It’s not just Maestro Moretti’s influence–Yuna

played her part too. Regardless, she’s definitely earned some reputation for

the Tanner family from this.”

“Ugh, that angelic b*tch irritates me to no end!” Quintus grumbled bluntly,

true to his straightforward nature. “She can’t hold a candle to you, Mackenzie!

How did she even make it into the Four Beauties of Zovince? It’s infuriating!”

“Enough with the nonsense!” Mackenzie chided. “Let’s get things organized

and transport the supplies to Riverhaven.”

Time was of the essence, and Mackenzie knew that while the efforts to

combat the bandits were failing, the relief work needed to succeed.

Otherwise, her chances of toppling Teddy would be slim.
