“Why does the president of Jetroina want me captured?” she wondered out loud. That certain incident did happen in Jetroina, but I don’t recall ever crossing him.

Hearing that, Joe shook his head.

“I only know that they want me to capture you and Professor Gullifer; I don’t know anything else!”

Joe had told her everything he knew.

“I see…” Sophie narrowed her eyes.

Sophie seemed harmless, but the sight of her made the hair on the back of Joe’s neck stand.

“I really told you everything I know! Please, please let me go!” He was a man who knew when to persist and when to submit—he knew he had to kneel before her then and beg for her to spare him.

“I hope you’re telling me the truth. You know what I’ll do to you otherwise. Mr. Tristan, please get your men to take him away.”

Joe had been committing multiple crimes throughout the years, after all. It would be best for her to leave him to the military court.

Meanwhile, Bertram, who was outside, knew that there was a trap room inside, so he had been worried sick about Sophie and Tristan.
