Love at the Wrong Table (Emmanuel Lowe and Mackenzie) novel Chapter 857

Chapter 857 Emmanuel’s Quest for Nathan Chapman 

“Do you recall the legendary grandmaster Ezekiel Hodges?” Sage inquired. 

-Z0% 

“Him?” Emmanuel replied in surprise, “Of course, I remember him. He’s a martial arts grandmaster who dedicated forty-five years to cultivation, established his own sect, and once came to the Northern Territory to guide martial arts. I sparred with him back then, and his moves were flawless. I couldn’t beat him at all!” 

“Yeah, back then, only you could go toe-to-toe with him. If we had tried, we’d probably have been toast!” Sage responded. “And the suspect in this case is a super expert who effortlessly defeated Ezekiel with just one move after making him go through ten. His name is Blake Dotson. As for his real name and background, we haven’t figured that out yet.” 

“Blake Dotson?” Emmanuel frowned. The name was unfamiliar to him. 

“Yeah, that’s the guy. He works for Magnus Zelinsky. On the day Sebastian had his accident, according to hospital CCTV, he was seen approaching Sebastian’s vehicle,” Sage explained: “However, because this goes against common sense, and he didn’t directly puncture Sebastian’s tires, even with surveillance footage, we can’t legally prove he’s responsible for Sebastian’s murder. Moreover, there’s another major complication in this 

case…” 

Emmanuel immediately responded, “Because of Magnus, right? Without solid evidence, it’s hard to take someone away from him, isn’t it?” 

“Exactly!” Sage affirmed. “If we jump the gun and spook the snake, he might go all out to evade capture, and we won’t be able to nab him!” 

Emmanuel asked again, “So, are you calling me because you want me to help you catch him?” 

“Mr. Lowe, could you help me?” Sage smiled bitterly. “Recently, Ashton has taken on a few cases, and she hasn’t cracked a single one. We’ve almost figured out this one, but the suspect is a tough nut to crack. She’s almost driven crazy.” 

“Then, have her come to me, and we’ll work through it together.” 

Considering Sage’s request, Emmanuel didn’t outright refuse. Instead, he added, “But right now, I don’t have the time to deal with this because I’ve got something more important and urgent on my plate.” 

“Oh, what’s going on?” Sage became curious. If Emmanuel sees it as important and urgent, there must be real significance behind it. 

Since Sage had taken the initiative to approach him, Emmanuel decided to skip involving Eve and asked straight up, “Can you help me reach Nathan Chapman?” 

“The eldest son of the Chapman family?” 

Sage paused for a moment and then chuckled. “Why do you need him? Aren’t you worried he’ll bug you again?” 

Nathan Chapman came from a prestigious family-no, scratch that-an extremely prestigious family. He was also a martial arts enthusiast. 

When his family sent him to the Northern Territory for training, he witnessed the martial arts talent and extraordinary strength of the Wolf King. Driven by determination, he insisted on becoming Emmanuel’s disciple. 

At first, Emmanuel refused to take him as a disciple, but later, he couldn’t resist his persistence and had no choice but to agree to let him be a nominal disciple and send him to the military camp for training. 

However, Nathan, born with a silver spoon, couldn’t endure the tough military life. Later, when Emmanuel went on a mission, he returned to find that Nathan had already left the Northern Territory. 

“I really don’t want to track him down, but my wife’s company is facing difficulties and urgently needs an extraction technology. The Chapman family has a grip on various technologies globally, so he can undoubtedly help!” 

Emmanuel was upfront and shared everything with Sage.
