Jessica fumed. “You have no evidence to prove that we have anything to do with the kidnapping case, so why are you stopping us from taking off?
What right do you have to restrict our freedom of movement? Moreover, I have diplomatic immunity! Even if I've committed a crime, your laws have no effect on me!”
The moment those words left her mouth, a booming voice came from a short distance away.
“If you've only committed a normal crime, then your diplomatic immunity would have saved you.
However, you should not have laid a finger on my wife and daughter!”
Jessica gasped.
She and everyone then whipped their heads in the direction of the voice.
The next thing she saw was Nathan in the phoenix military coat, leading Colin, the Elite Eight, and his other subordinates toward her.
When Hailey and the others saw that Nathan had arrived, they immediately greeted him.
“Sir!”
Jessica stared at Nathan with a confused look. Although she had found out that Nathan was Eurasia's Chief Military Governor during her call with Max, she was still startled by the sight of Nathan in the Chief Military Governor's signature military coat.
At the same time, anxiety began fluttering in her chest.
Forcing herself to keep calm, she faked a look of surprise and said, “Nathan?”
Nathan uttered, “Jessica, you should not have laid a finger on my family.” Jessica squeezed out, “I have no idea what you're talking about, Nathan.”
At that, Nathan said, “You'll find out soon enough.”
He then ordered, “Men, restrain all these people and confiscate their communication devices. Check through all of their communication devices and transfer all of their data into our systems as quickly as possible!”
“Yes, sir!”
Colin and the Elite Eight then began instructing the soldiers on sight to arrest Jessica and her people.
Eren, who was beside Jessica, paled. All of a sudden, he turned on his laptop and tried to hastily mass delete sensitive information. However, just as Eren turned on his laptop, Colin took out his gun and fired it.
