Chapter 366

Hearing Kenneth agree, Ophelia let out a sigh of relief.

Maybe because he was the president of a nation, Ophelia was still willing to trust him. "Mrs. Sinclair..." Caleb didn't want to leave.

"Don't make me angry," Ophelia's voice was cold and stern, and her eyes were so deep. Seeing Caleb unwilling to leave, she suddenly struck the back of his neck with great force.

Caleb passed out before he could even react.

"Could you please send him out, Mr. West?" Ophelia's tone was calm and composed all the time, which made Xander view her with newfound respect, though he disliked her strong-willed demeanor. Originally, he could have just agreed, since keeping Caleb here wasn't necessary.

But he just didn't want to be led by a young girl.

He said, "Once we finish our conversation, I'll let him go."

Ophelia thought, 'Once we finish?'

She smiled, but her eyes remained cold.

It seemed she had trusted the wrong person.

Her indifferent expression made Xander feel uncomfortable.

Xander furrowed his brow and glanced around the airtight interrogation room. The oppressive atmosphere made him uncomfortable, so he glanced at Ophelia and instructed, "Bring her to the front."

A few minutes later, they sat across from each other on a spacious sofa, surrounded only by guards holding long rifles. Ophelia's face was a bit pale, but she sat with her back as straight as ever in front of Xander. She said, "You must have already thought of a solution, Mr. West.

Ophelia got straight to the point, not wanting to waste any time

"Do you have any suggestions, Ms. Spencer?" Xander replied with a question.

Ophelia said, "I wouldn't dare to suggest anything, but I think you must have realized that this matter isn't that simple."

The presidential campaign was coming up the next month. Such an issue happened in Heloria before that would surely impact Xander's campaign.

Xander pursed his lips and thought, 'She has sharp insight./
