Chapter 318

    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Clifford had just closed the live stream.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The news from the police station was immediately conveyed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He also saw who had dealt with Robin.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Yvette had truly given him a pleasant surprise.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">No wonder she was part of the Chavez family. Her fiery spirit was unmistakable.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Today, let alone Robin hadn’t died. Even if he was dead, the Chavez family would still protect Yvette, and no one could touch her.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Clifford had just hung up from the call with Ybau when Aurora called in.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Clifford had a good idea of what it might be about.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">As soon as he answered, Aurora’s excited voice came through. “Wow, honey, Yvette was incredible today! No matter what Yvette did, even if she caused great trouble, you have to protect her, okay?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Clifford rubbed his temples, responding, “Don’t worry. I’ll protect Yvette, even if it means risking my life. I’ll be busy here. We’ll talk more when I get home tonight.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Aurora, understanding the situation, reminded him to take care of his health before hanging up.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Clifford was a director at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He needed to n his responses in advance, and if necessary, hold a press conference.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He absolutely couldn’t let Ybau take advantage of the situation and cause trouble.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">In the café, Malcolm returned from the call, feeling more confident.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He was visibly smug. They were already starting a media storm. He would see how Clusia would deal with it.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Darnell noticed Malcolm’s demeanor with slight confusion. He thought, ‘Malcolm is fierce just now. What’s he plotting? He must be up to something.’</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Malcolm was bursting with pride. “Mr. Tucker, if you don’t hand over this woman, we will hold a press condemning Clusia’s harboring actions. Just wait and see.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Darnell’s expression changed. These shameless people clearly had thought of a vicious n.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">He was unsure of what to do for a moment and lost a bit of confidence.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Malcolm, upon seeing this, grew even more arrogant, fixing his gaze on Yvette.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">conference today</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">His voice was vicious. “Miss, soon Clusia will be caught in a media storm because of you, and countries worldwide will condemn Clusia for what happened today. You’re the criminal.”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Yvette stood up from her chair. Her dark eyes were icy.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She slightly lifted her eyelids with no expression and gently raised an eyebrow.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">She pressed her lips. A mischievous, faint smile tugged at the corners of her lips. “Oh? A criminal?”</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">After speaking, Yvette spun the small silver gun in her hand and silenced the gun.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">With a quick and decisive motion, she pulled the trigger before anyone could react.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">The bullet shot straight into Malcolm’s left shoulder de. Blood spouted out.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">This scene was a massive shock. Everyone was stunned.</font></font>


    <font style="vertical-align: inherit;"><font style="vertical-align: inherit;">Even Darnell turned pale, thinking, ‘Did she just shoot without warning? She’s really something.</font></font>


    ‘Robin is easy to handle, but Malcolm is an influential figure in the central government of Ybau. This shot is a big deal.


    Darnell didn’t have time to think. He quickly pulled out his gun, and the officers behind him did the same. They were on high alert.


    The bodyguards Malcolm brought also swiftly drew their guns. The two sides faced each other.


    Malcolm clutched his left shoulder de, looking up at Yvette in disbelief.


    His voice was full of disbelief, and his face turned pale as the blood kept flowing. “You actually dared to shoot me!”


    Yvette held the small silver gun tightly.


    She looked at Malcolm and said slowly, “Are you an idiot? You’re shot and still asking such a silly question.”


    In such a tense atmosphere, some of the officers with Darnell couldn’t hold back theirughter and burst outughing They thought, ‘This big shot’s words are cuttingly sharp. If Malcolm’s not killed by the bullet, he might die from anger. Malcolm’s wound hurt even more when he heard this. He endured the pain and instructed his men to lower their guns. They couldn’t fire first, otherwise, at the press conference, their country would lose the advantage.


    Malcolm endured the pain. He didn’t even bother to bandage his wound.


    No matter what was right or wrong, public opinion always favored the underdog. He wanted to y the victim, using his injury to gain advantages for the country.


    Malcolm had just informed the Interpol branch within Clusia. Once Interpol arrived, today’s events would be ssified as an international criminal case.


    Turning his head, Darnell whispered, “Ms. Zeller, Mr. Jeremiah Chavez should be arriving soon. However, I can’t help but feel that Malcolm has more than just a public opinion scheme. It seems like he’s stalling for time, waiting for something else.”


    Yvette gave Malcolm a nce. Her deep, calm eyes looked steadily as she spoke slowly, “He’s waiting for someone


    Malcolm’s expression changed. He was surprised that this girl had figured out his n.


    Darnell was briefly stunned, thinking, ‘Waiting for


    ne? Both sides are already here, so who else are they waiting for?”


    After pondering, Darnell asked, “Ms. Zeller, who could they be waiting for?”


    Yvette raised an eyebrow. Her eyes were half–closed. There was a mischievous air about her.


    Her carefree attitude made Malcolm grit his teeth in anger. He swore to ensure this woman faced the harshest international sanctions.


    Yvette was concise and clear. “Interpol.”All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    When Darnell heard this, he tensed up a bit. He immediately realized that Malcolm’s goal was to invoke international sanctions.


    Things were escting. Interpol was recognized as the top joint agency internationally.


    If Malcolm really reported this to the Betrico branch, then the headquarters over in Mysonna would definitely seize the opportunity to make a big deal out of this, turning it into an international case.


    Malcolm was really cunning. No wonder he wasn’t even worried about a gunshot wound.


    Darnell quickly said to Yvette, “Ms. Zeller, it seems like this isn’t going to end well. Should we inform Mr. Jase Chavez?”


    In Darnell’s opinion, now that it was escted to this level, only Jase could protect Yvette.


    With her hands in her pockets, Yvette had a bit of a rogue look, her eyes half–shaded.


    Looking at Darnell’s worried face, she slowly said, “No need. Just wait.”


    Yvette thought, ‘Get Jase involved? Th bad.‘


    Darnell was as nervous as an ant on a hot pan, but the person in front of him didn’t show any concern at all.


    He wondered, ‘What makes her so confident?‘


    He was about to go crazy.


    Darnell wasn’t so optimistic. He could only take out his phone to contact his superior for guidance.


    Yvette gave him a casual nce. She didn’t say anything.


    Malcolm was surrounded by a group of men in ck suits, staring intensely at Yvette. His eyes were full of malice.


    Robin woke up. Seeing the scene, he widened his eyes in shock. His mind went nk.


    “Mr. Hart, how did you end up shot as well? Who hurt you? Was it the Clusian police?” asked Robin.


    Malcolm clutched his wound. He was so much in pain that he didn’t bother responding to Robin.


    Malcolm gritted out through the pain, “It was that woman who shot at me.”


    Robin feltpletely stunned, like he’d been struck by lightning.


    He looked at the woman protected by the Clusian police across from him and finally felt scared.


    He thought, ‘This woman is absolutely crazy. She actually dared to shoot Mr. Hart?


    ‘Mr. Hart is the Prime Minister’s secretary, someone who wields great power in Ybau.


    ‘Did he just get hit like that too?‘


    Robin huddled up, too scared to say anything more.


    Yvette leisurely sat in her chair, resting her chin on her hand.


    Her hand was lightly resting on the armrest. Watching the vignt officers around her, she said in a voice as cold as ever, “Do you all want to sit down and take a break?”


    The surrounding know what to say.

    A momentter, they all shopk their heads.


    They certainly weren’t like her. She acted as if she were at hom
