“Yes, I have already instructed them to leave. Did you think I would give you the opportunity to use me to threaten them?” Barney replied firmly.

“Mr. President, don’t worry. I’ve sent our men to keep an eye on the airport. They won’t be able to leave,” Jamie quickly reassured Marcus. They had already revealed their intention, so there was no need to hold back anymore.

“Okay.” Marcus heaved a sigh of relief. “Barney, you should reconsider my proposal. Why would you choose to be imprisoned? If you agree to assist me, I can assure you that you will receive anything you desire,” he promised.

“Bring them in. See, Dr. Smith? Your mentees have made their decision. It’s not easy for anyone to reject Anglandur,” Marcus said with a smirk. For many, entering Anglandur was a dream come true, and he could offer them everything they desired. He was confident that they wouldn’t be able to resist his enticing offer.
