“Ms. Quillen, it’s nearly impossible to purchase food and clothing. Due to the

disaster, prices have skyrocketed, especially with food. Even with money, it’s

nearly impossible to buy enough,” Lexi reported back to Mackenzie.

Anthony, who had been lamenting behind Mackenzie, overheard Lexi’s report,

and his face fell even further. Fortunately, Quintus raised his massive fist in

warning, silently warning Anthony not to dare cry again.

“Looks like we’ll have to host a charity drive,” Mackenzie sighed softly. This was

her last resort, and she wasn’t sure how effective it would be.

Thankfully, both she and Lexi were experienced event planners, and they

could organize the charity drive without much trouble. But Lexi immediately

beat us to it. There’s already a large–scale charity performance and donation

drive happening in Vinehurst. They’ve announced that all proceeds will go to

the disaster victims, and thousands of people are already lined up to attend

the event.”

“What?” Mackenzie was taken aback and quickly asked, “Who has such a big

pull?”

“It’s Maestro Isabella Moretti, along with her newly accepted inner disciple,

Yuna Tanner, one of the Four Beauties of Zovince!” Lexi replied quickly, her

expression filled with worry.

“Isabella Moretti and Yuna Tanner?” Mackenzie’s heart sank as an uneasy

feeling washed over her.

“Yes, exactly!” Lexi whispered in Mackenzie’s ear, “Ms. Quillen, Maestro Moretti’s

reputation is renowned throughout Chanaea, and her influence is enormous.

According to my investigation, she’s also Teddy Tanner’s younger sister, and

una is his niece! Hosting this charity event in Vinehurst is clearly a move to

boost the Tanner family’s position in the upcoming Chamber of Commerce

election!”

Mackenzie nodded, sharing the same concern.

“Ms. Quillen, what do we do now?” Anthony asked, even though he hadn’t

heard the quiet conversation between Lexi and Mackenzie. He had clearly

overheard the part about the charity event. Slapping his thigh in frustration,

he said, “For most people, it doesn’t matter who holds the charity event it’s

all for the disaster victims. But for us, the implications are entirely different!”

Mackenzie understood that all too well. In fact, she was even more anxious

than Anthony. If stomping her feet could help, she’d have done it harder an

faster than him.

“Ms. Quillen, you need to say something!” Anthony urged her frantically. “If

Maestro Moretti is personally leading this charity event, the people of

Vinehurst will donate their supplies to her! Even if we organize a charity even

we’ll be competing against her, and I doubt we’ll collect much!”

“Stop your constant whining! You’re distracting Mackenzie from thinking. Keep

it up, and I’ll knock you out!” Quintus growled, raising his fist once again.

“Quintus, calm down,” Mackenzie intervened, then turned to Anthony, who Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

was trembling with fear. “Mr. Quail, you’re right. We can’t hold another charity

event in Vinehurst and go head–to–head with Maestro Moretti. Instead, we

ter words instantly enlightened Anthony, who broke into a smile. “Haha,

you’re right, Ms. Quillen! As long as the disaster victims are taken care of and

we’ve done our part, the public won’t criticize us!”

Mackenzie smiled. “In that case, why not take your people and go help them

now?”

“Right, right, I’ll get on it right away!” Anthony hurried off, eager to assist with

“Haha, Mackenzie, you’re really clever. That whiny crybaby’s finally gone! So,

does this mean this problem is solved?” Quintus complimented.

Alas, Mackenzie could only shake her head with a bitter smile. “I’m not so sur

if Mr. Quail’s issue is resolved, but my problems are certainly piling up.”

“What?! This…” Quintus, simple–minded as he was, couldn’t grasp all the

complications Mackenzie was dealing with.

“Lexi, make arrangements for us to attend Maestro Moretti’s charity event.

Let’s see if there’s any way we can help out,” Mackenzie ordered, then paused

for a moment before adding with a wry smile, “I’d also like to see Maestro

Moretti in action myself.”

“Yes, Ms. Quillen, I’ll arrange it right away, Lexi responded, hurrying off.

Before long, the group set off for a stadium in Vinehurst. Unlike more

developed cities like Eldoria, the West End region had a weaker economy,

and Vinehurst didn’t have dedicated venues for theater or opera. The most

suitable place for the charity performance was the public sports stadium.

When Mackenzie stepped out of the car, she realized there was still quite a

distance between them and the stadium.

“Ms. Quillen, there are too many people. The car can’t get any closer!* Lexi

quickly explained.

Mackenzie glanced ahead, and sure enough, the crowd was massive. The

enthusiasm of the local people was just as intense as in larger cities!

However, it was clear the average level of organization wasn’t high–the

scene was chaotic, to say the least.

“Wow, Daddy, look at that beautiful lady! is she one of the Four Beker off

qvince? Is she Ms. Yuna Tanner, the one you always tak about? A little girl in

the crowd suddenly pointed at Mackenzie, shouting loudly,

“Shh, Ginny! Don’t talk so loud! If your mom hears, I’m done for Her father

quickly covered her mouth and picked her up. But the mention of Yund’s

name sent the nearby men into a frenzy.

“Yuna Tanner? Where is she?”

“Let me see how pretty she really is! I heard she’s got an amazing figure!

“They say the Four Beauties of Zovince are so beautiful it’s unreal. One look

can make a man lose his mind!”

The already chaotic scene quickly escalated into an even more unruly mess,

with shoving and trampling starting to occur in the frenzy.

Protect Ms. Quillen!” Quintus shouted. The experts from the Wolf Warrior Unit

immediately formed a protective circle around Mackenzie, keeping the

crazed crowd at bay.

Suddenly, the cries of a child pierced the air. Mackenzie saw with her own

eyes that the little girl named Ginny had fallen to the ground and was being

trampled by the crowd.

“Quintus! Quickly, save her!” Mackenzie ordered, her eyes filled with a mix of

sorrow and urgency.

She hadn’t expected her presence to cause such chaos, and she certainly
