Chapter 2243 The Wolf Warrior Strikes!
âYuna, you...â Santiago hesitated, momentarily caught off guard.
He had just acknowledged his daughter, yet she stood against him here.
Finished
Although family mattered to him and Yuna was Jane's child, Santiago wasnât the kind of person to let blood ties
cloud his judgment.
His beliefs had never wavered-peace above all.
Plus, that wasnât going to change now.
Teddy took advantage of the silence, smoothly stepping in. âSantiago, I understand how difficult this must be for
you.â
His tone was calm, almost sympathetic. âEmmanuel is your disciple, while Yuna and I are your family. Now that
we're on opposing sides, you're the one caught in the middle.â
He continued, âI'm not asking you to help me. Just donât stand in my way. Let Emmanuel and I settle this
properly, one-on-one. The winner takes all. No interference, no complaints.â
As manipulative as Teddy was, his words carried weight.
Santiago exhaled heavily, unsure how to respond.
Catching this moment of hesitation, Teddy shot Yuna a subtle look.
She instantly understood, slipping her arm around Santiago's and tilting her head softly, affectionately. âFather,
we've only just found each other again. Can't we take a walk and forget about all these troubles for now?â
Santiago sighed again.
Yuna looked up at him, her voice soft and earnest. âI really want to hear about you and Mom. Tell me
everything!â
Santiago hesitated for a moment before agreeing, âFine.â
For a man who had lived in solitude for so many years, reuniting with his daughter was tempting.
Yet, Santiago wasnât a fool. He knew that if he walked away now, Mackenzie's people might not leave the Tanner
Residence alive.
To avoid unnecessary bloodshed, he decided that Ironskull and Ostrich needed to leave first. Only then would he
go with Yuna.
Upon his exit from the chamber, Yuna gripped his arm while Ironskull and Ostrich remained still, sharing
bewildered looks.
The sight caught them off guard.
They couldn't help but wonder-Has Teddy really convinced him to walk away? Can Yuna truly sway him so easily?
Sure, sheâs one of the Four Beauties-but is she really that irresistible?

Still in disbelief, Ironskull protested, âBut we haven't retrieved the seal yet!â
Ostrich, the more perceptive of the two, quickly picked up on something.
Finished
Wait, somethingâs off. Santiago isnât making a move against Teddy-but heâs not protecting him either. He's
staying neutral.
By the way, Aora is right here, radiating pure killing intent. One wrong move... and this place will turn into a
bloodbath.
Ostrich quickly pulled Ironskull back. âLet's go. We'll report to Ms. Quillen.â
With that, they left.
Not long after, Santiago walked away with Yuna.
Back at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters, Ironskull and Ostrich relayed what had happened.
The room fell into a stunned silence, but still, a few representatives exchanged whispers.
âSantiago... actually left with Yuna?â
âI mean, can we blhim? Men love beautiful women, after all.â
âTrue. Yuna might not be the sharpest, but with looks like that, who wouldn't be swayed?â
Mackenzie's sharp voice cut through the chatter. âEnough!â
Her cold stare silenced the room.
She refused to believe that Santiago-a man of principle-would be manipulated so easily.
Thanks to Teddy's interference, this handover meeting had already spiraled into chaos.
Still, Mackenzie's faction had solidified its hold on the main camp of the Chamber of Commerce. Even those who
weren't official representatives, like Terence, had joined in.
Before she could say more, Beatrix stepped forward.
She folded her arms and scowled. âAre you all brainless?â
She jabbed a finger at them, her frustration boiling over. âDo you really think Santiago is sshallow fool who
a pretty face can seduce?â
She scoffed. âBesides, donât start acting like Yunaâs beauty is enough to sway a man like him. Is Mackenzie not
stunning? Is Claudette not breathtaking? Am I not gorgeous?â
She tossed her hair. âIf beauty was enough to change his mind, donât you think one of us would've done it first?â
Her words hit harder than Mackenzie's.
Nathan chuckled. âThis little firecracker has a sharp tongue!â
However, Ashton shot him a deadly glare.
Nathan immediately realized the issue-Beatrix had left her own nout of that list.
This meant she had unintentionally implied that she wasnât as attractive as Yuna.
Nathan swallowed hard, realizing he had just walked into a dangerous situation.
Finished
Jidrus, ever pragmatic, got straight to the point. âMs. Quillen, we're in a tough spot without the Chamber of
Commerce sealâ
He tapped his fingers on the table and asked, âShould we void the current seal and issue a new one?â
However, it would bypass Teddy but require a long, tedious process. Then again, forcing Teddy to hand over the
Chamber of Commerce seal wasn't casier.
Just then, Emmanuel arrived.
He had already suspected things wouldn't go smoothly, and the moment he stepped in, he immediately
understood the situation.
Ironskull wasted no time. âCommander Lowe, you're just in time. Your master left with Teddy's daughter. Now we
have no one to pressure Teddy!â
Emmanuel frowned. Master... really couldnât bring himself to act against Teddy?
Mackenzie approached him, lowering her voice. âEmmanuel, this is Teddyâs game. He's buying time. The longer
he keeps the Chamber of Commerce in limbo, the more he weakens Ethan's support.â
He nodded.
Ethan might be ahead, but nothing in politics was certain.
After a moment of thought, his expression hardened as he declared, âI'll go to the Tanner Residence myself and
demand the seal.â
The atmosphere in the room shifted in an instant. A single thought ran through everyoneâs mindâThe Wolf
Warrior is stepping in. Would Teddy still dare to play his games now?
However, Mackenzie knew this wasn't just about the seal anymore.
This was a direct confrontation between Emmanuel and Teddy.
Teddy was no longer the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce.
Taking him down now would be far easier than before.
Her fingers curled slightly.
âEmmanuel, be careful.â
Her emotions, her concern-all condensed into a single sentence.
Emmanuel met her gaze, understanding her worry. âI will.â
Then, he turned to Ironskull and Ostrich. âGet your men ready. We leave now.â
âYes. Commander Lowe!â Ironskull and Ostrich stood straighter. their excitement undeniable.
Just as Emmanuel was about to leave, a graceful voice interrupted. âCommander Lowe, I heard the Black Wolf
Team is mobilizing. Mind if I tag along?â
A stunning woman stepped forward, her smile carrying a hint of mystery.
Before Emmanuel could respond, Mackenzie did. âTake her with you.â
Emmanuel glanced at his wife. He understood what she was doing.
âAlright. Let's move,â he agreed.
Meanwhile, the moment Santiago departed, Gautier stepped forward, seamlessly assuming the role Levi once
held-Teddyâs trusted advisor.
His voice was low but firm. âMaster, you should leave.â
Before Teddy could respond, Aora stiffened. His sharp gaze locked onto Gautier.
âLeave? What exactly do you mean?â he repeated, his tone dark.
