Chapter 320
Malcolm was speechless. He dared to challenge Darnell but wouldn’t even speak loudly to Jack.
He was thoroughly defeated.
Within the International Police Organization, officers were recognized in three levels.
The top level that Jack mentioned was the highest rank.
People of such stature typically didn’t appear in crowds.
He never would have thought that a girl in her early twenties could be a top–level international police officer.
Jack let out a cold chuckle, showing no friendliness to them.
But when he turned to Yvette, his expression softened instantly, his smile so broad it caused wrinkles on his face.
His tone was extremely respectful. “Ms. Zeller, does the organization need to intervene regarding today’s matter? Why did you fire the gun?”
Jack had no choice. After all, the incident had been reported to the authorities, involving disputes between two countries.
Without a reason, it was hard to justify the situation, so he had to follow the procedure by asking questions. He asked nervously, afraid of angering Yvette.
Jack thought, ‘She is someone even the highest leaders of the organization have to humor with smiles. What if I make her angry? Can I still go back to Mysonna?‘
Seeing Jack’s completely different attitudes toward him and Yvette made Malcolm even more frustrated.
His face grew even darker. Today’s events had spiraled out of his control.
From the moment he learned Yvette was an Interpol officer, everything went off track. The plan of using Yvette to tarnish Clusia’s reputation was disrupted.
Interpol officers had the right to carry firearms. This was recognized by countries worldwide.
Yvette stood with her hands in her pockets, her expression indifferent, and her eyes deep and dark.
Her voice was icy. Her tone was calm. Looking at Malcolm, who seemed anxious and resentful, she spoke slowly, “I suspected there was a terrorist here, and that’s why I fired.”
Jack froze for a moment, then it dawned on him. She was indeed clever.
With just one word “terrorist“, today’s events could be brushed off. It was the perfect explanation.
Darnell almost clapped in approval.
He thought, ‘Once Ms. Zeller revealed her Interpol credentials, today’s issue was easily resolved.
‘However, it is clear from the situation that Ms. Zeller has more tricks up her sleeve.
I have a feeling Malcolm and Robin might be finished, with no favorable outcome in sight! Upon hearing this, Malcolm was on high alert, silently cursing Yvette for being so sneaky. Jack cooperated, asking with a serious expression, “Ms. Zeller, who do you suspect?”
Yvette thought, ‘Who do I suspect? The answer is obvious.
Yvette curled her lips into a slight sneer, her eyes glinting coldly. She raised her eyebrows. “I suspect Malcolm and Robin are terrorists. Take them back to the division.”
Jack stood firmly. His voice was loud and clear. “Yes.”
With that, he waved his hand to the officers he brought along, saying sternly, “Take these two away.”
Darnell never anticipated this move from Yvette, placing such serious charges on them.
Malcolm and Robin were stunned after hearing what Yvette said.
They wondered, ‘How can we be terrorists?Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
‘This is clearly a setup. Anyone can see Yvette did this on purpose.
Of course, Malcolm wouldn’t just accept it.
He immediately retorted, “Mr. White, you can’t just listen to this woman. I’m the Prime Minister’s secretary. How could I be a terrorist? I will appeal to your headquarters and file a complaint against this woman. She’s lying.”
Robin also hurriedly explained, “The Jenkins family has always been loyal to Mr. Hall. We are not terrorists. She’s making it up!”
Jack watched them squirm. He let out a cold snort, thinking, ‘Did these two really think they could file a complaint against Ms. Zeller? They’re asking for trouble.‘
Jack said sternly, “You both have the right to appeal, but now, under international law, you’re under arrest. Officers, take them away.”
As Malcolm and Robin were about to protest, Jack drew his gun. “If you two don’t cooperate, I have the right to execute you on the spot.”
Malcolm and Rob didn’t dare say another word and resigned themselves to being handcuffed.
The two of them, along with their bodyguards, were all taken away.
Darnell stood there watching Yvette. They were fully armed and had even considered causing an international conflict.
He didn’t expect things to be resolved so quickly.
Darnell thought, ‘Well, it’s good that Ms. Zeller is fine. Now, both Malcolm and Robin are being taken back to the Interpol division.‘
If Jack’s attitude toward Yvette earlier surprised Darnell, seeing Malcolm and Robin getting arrested really shocked him. Darnell wondered, ‘Who exactly is Mr. Jeremiah Chavez’s girlfriend?
‘With a single sentence, she made Jack take Malcolm and Robin away without a second thought?
“This kind of influence? Isn’t that a bit too much?‘
After putting Malcolm and Robin in the police car, Jack quickly turned back to the café.
The chance to connect with such an important person probably only came once in a lifetime, so he had to grab it firmly.
Inside the café, Darnell and a group of officers watched as the visiting Ybaulla delegation was taken away. Their surprise quickly turned into admiration.
They thought, ‘From now on, Ms. Zeller can practically dominate Betrico. Her power is just that overwhelming.
“This time, Ybaulla’s plans have totally backfired. They’d never imagine Interpol would listen to Ms. Zeller!
Darnell had heard rumors about Yvette before. He couldn’t quite understand why Jeremiah would be interested in a girl from Seacrity.
He initially thought it was just because of her looks, but now it seemed like they were a perfect match.
After today’s events, all those unfounded rumors in Betrico would probably fade away.
After all, no one would want to mess with an influential person in the Interpol organization.
What Darnell didn’t know was that after Yvette dealt with Keira at the bar last time, the compound kids were too intimidated to say anything.
They didn’t dare to say more because they just wanted to survive.
Darnell was just about to talk to Yvette when Jack returned.
Before Jack came into the room, he tidied up his police uniform
He thought, ‘What if Ms. Zeller likes older guys? I have to give it a try, right?‘
Jack walked up to Yvette, feeling anxious as he looked at her blank face.
He politely asked, “Ms. Zeller, are you planning to stay in Betrico for a while? Do you need someone from headquarters to come over and accompany you for protection?”
Yvette lowered her gaze slightly. Her eyes were cool and collected.
Her eyes darkened a bit as she softly said, “Thanks, but no need.”
Jack immediately replied with a smile, “Okay.”
Jack thought, ‘She probably doesn’t need protection.’
Darnell saw this scene and was rendered speechless.
He wondered, ‘Is this the same Jack, the quiet and stern Interpol agent I worked with two years ago?”
Jack carefully gave his suggestion. “Ms. Zeller, for today’s matter, I need to report back to headquarters. Do you think you might want to give the Chairman a heads–up? It could save a lot of trouble.”
Of course, Jack knew it was unlikely that these two were terrorists, but if Yvette said so, then it was true.
He also had to follow proper procedures to investigate and report. However, if Yvette could communicate directly with the Chairman, it would make things much easier for him.
In the café, every word Jason said fell on Darnell and the officers he brought along
They thought, ‘So this girl is not just an Interpol officer. It seems that even the Chairman will respect her.
‘The Chairman of Interpol is from Mysonna, and he’s actually helping Yvette?
This really sounds like an unbelievable thing.‘
