Chapter 1038

"I am a public servant and I'm paid by the country and its citizens. I will never violate the law."

Jackson's face was solemn as he spoke. It was as if he were severing all ties with Alexander.

Sensing the tension, Elise quickly chimed in, "It's Cittadel's blessing to have such a righteous policeman as you, Captain Gleeman."

"I'm honored. Thank you, Mrs. Griffith," Jackson replied modestly, a smile on his face.

Alexander's expression remained unchanged. With a vague smile, he said, "That's why I wouldn't waste my time on something I know is impossible. Captain Gleeman, all you have to do is take the credit while Smith Co. deals with the criminals. There's no conflict when we all do our jobs."

Indeed, Alexander had considered getting Jackson on his side. However, he knew that Jackson was an obstinate man who was adamant about his own beliefs, so he abandoned such a thought.

"True." Jackson nodded. He then stood up and prepared to leave. "Please send some of your men to help me escort Matthew to the local police station, just in case anything goes wrong."

"No problem. Raymond, send some men to go with Captain Gleeman," Alexander instructed as he stood up.

"Yes, sir."

Raymond immediately went out to make arrangements for this.

Just as Jackson was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and turned around. Then, he said to Alexander, "For the past hundred years, Cittadel has been treated lightly by the developing countries and it has limited its development. It would be disastrous if Triune continued to corrupt our country's key figures in science and technology. As such, the arrest must be carried out as soon as possible. Please see to it, Mr. Griffith. I thank you on behalf of all of Cittadel."

He bowed to Alexander after his words, then turned around and walked to the door.
