Malcolm was speechless. He had dared to challenge Darnell, yet couldn't even speak loudly to Jack. He was thoroughly defeated.

Within the International Police Organization, officers held three ranks. The top level, as Jack mentioned, was the highest. Individuals of such stature rarely appeared in crowds. Malcolm never imagined a girl in her early twenties could be a top-level international police officer.

Jack let out a cold chuckle, offering no friendliness. But when he turned to Yvette, his expression softened instantly, his smile broad enough to wrinkle his face. His tone was deeply respectful. "Ms. Zeller, does the organization need to intervene regarding today's matter? Why did you fire your weapon?"

Jack had no choice. The incident, involving disputes between two countries, had been reported to the authorities. Without a clear reason, justifying the situation would be difficult, so he had to follow procedure. He asked nervously, fearing Yvette's anger. He thought, She's someone even the highest leaders of the organization humor. What if I anger her? Can I still return to Mysonna?

Seeing Jack's contrasting attitudes towards him and Yvette further frustrated Malcolm. His face darkened. Today's events had spiraled out of control. From the moment he learned Yvette was an Interpol officer, everything had gone awry. His plan to use Yvette to tarnish Clusia's reputation was disrupted.

Interpol officers were authorized to carry firearms, a right recognized worldwide.

Yvette stood with her hands in her pockets, her expression indifferent, her eyes deep and dark. Her voice was icy, yet her tone calm. Looking at the anxious and resentful Malcolm, she spoke slowly, "I suspected a terrorist was present; that's why I fired."

Jack froze, then comprehension dawned. She was clever. With the single word "terrorist," today's events could be easily dismissed. It was the perfect explanation.

Darnell almost clapped. He thought, Once Ms. Zeller revealed her Interpol credentials, today's issue was easily resolved. However, it's clear she possesses further resources. I have a feeling Malcolm and Robin are finished.

Upon hearing this, Malcolm was on high alert, silently cursing Yvette's cunning. Jack, adopting a serious expression, cooperated, asking, "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. Raising her eyebrows, she said, "I suspect Malcolm and Robin are terrorists. Take them back to the division."

Jack stood firm. His voice was loud and clear. "Yes." He waved to his officers, sternly ordering, "Take these two away."

Darnell hadn't anticipated Yvette's decisive action, leveling such serious charges. Malcolm and Robin were stunned. They wondered, How can we be terrorists? This is clearly a setup.

Malcolm refused to accept this. He 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 her. She's lying!"

Robin quickly added, "The Jenkins family has always been loyal to Mr. Hall. We are not terrorists. She's fabricating this!"

Jack watched them squirm, letting out a cold snort. He thought, Did they really think they could file a complaint against Ms. Zeller? They're asking for trouble.

Jack stated sternly, "You both have the right to appeal, but under international law, you're under arrest. Officers, take them away."

As Malcolm and Robin protested, Jack drew his weapon. "If you don't cooperate, I have the right to execute you on the spot."

Malcolm and Robin dared not speak further and submitted to being handcuffed. They, along with their bodyguards, were taken away.

Darnell watched Yvette. They were fully armed and had considered provoking an international conflict. He hadn't expected such a swift resolution. He thought, It's good Ms. Zeller is safe. Now, Malcolm and Robin are being taken to the Interpol division.

Jack's earlier attitude towards Yvette had surprised Darnell, but seeing Malcolm and Robin arrested truly shocked him. He wondered, Who exactly is Mr. Jeremiah Chavez's girlfriend? With a single sentence, she made Jack take Malcolm and Robin away without hesitation? This kind of influence… isn't that a bit excessive?

After placing Malcolm and Robin in the police car, Jack quickly returned to the café. The opportunity to connect with such an important person was rare, and he wouldn't miss it.

Inside, Darnell and his officers watched the departing Ybaulla delegation. Their surprise quickly morphed into admiration. They thought, From now on, Ms. Zeller can practically dominate Betrico. Her power is overwhelming. This time, Ybaulla's plans have completely backfired. They never imagined Interpol would heed Ms. Zeller!

Darnell had heard rumors about Yvette. He couldn't understand Jeremiah's interest in a girl from Seacrity. He'd initially assumed it was her appearance, but now it seemed like a perfect match. After today's events, those rumors would likely fade. No one would want to antagonize such an influential Interpol officer.

Unknown to Darnell, after Yvette's encounter with Keira at the bar, the compound kids were too intimidated to speak out, prioritizing their survival.

Darnell was about to speak to Yvette when Jack returned, having tidied his uniform. He thought, What if Ms. Zeller prefers older men? I have to try, right?

Jack approached Yvette, anxious as he looked at her impassive face. He politely asked, "Ms. Zeller, are you planning to stay in Betrico for a while? Do you require someone from headquarters for protection?"

Yvette lowered her gaze slightly, her eyes cool and collected. Her eyes darkened a little as she softly said, "Thanks, but no need."

Jack immediately replied with a smile, "Okay." He thought, She probably doesn't need protection.

Darnell was speechless. He wondered, Is this the same Jack, the quiet and stern Interpol agent I worked with two years ago?

Jack carefully suggested, "Ms. Zeller, regarding today's events, I need to report to headquarters. Would you consider informing the Chairman? It could save considerable trouble."

Jack knew the two were unlikely terrorists, but Yvette's word was final. He needed to follow procedure, but Yvette's direct communication with the Chairman would simplify things greatly.

In the café, Darnell and his officers heard Jack's words. They thought, So this girl isn't just an Interpol officer. It seems even the Chairman respects her. The Chairman of Interpol is from Mysonna, and he's actually assisting Yvette? This is unbelievable.
