Chapter 814

When they saw it was Sophie who interrupted their conversation, their expressions turned sour.

One of them continued, “Isn’t what I said true? You have been here for so long, but you haven’t been

able to find anything. Besides, there’s something off about the spread of the virus, Chanaea—”

Realizing that the other party had no plans of apologizing, a cold look soon settled in Sophie’s eyes. “I

can see that you need to be taught a lesson.”

“Why? Are you going to beat me up? Need I remind you that you’re in Anglandur? This isn’t a place

where you can do whatever you want.”

“So what if we’re in Anglandur? I can beat you up wherever and whenever I want.”

Upon saying that, Sophie stepped forward and grabbed her counterpart by the collar.

She then added, “Keep in mind that we Chanaeans are upright people. If we really wanted to destroy

you, we would have done it in broad daylight.”

The other party didn’t expect Sophie to be so haughty and spluttered, “You! Aren’t you being a bit too

arrogant right now? Who do you think you are? Who gave you the gall to spout nonsense here?”

Infuriated, he was about to claw at Sophie’s face when the latter grabbed his hand and folded it back

calmly.

An agonizing howl rang out almost immediately.

When his companions saw that, they tried to come forward to help, only to freeze on the spot when

Sophie’s glacial glare came to rest on them.

The man cried out, “What are you doing? Let go of me! I’m warning you, my hands are priceless. If you

destroy them, I’ll make your life a living hell!”

In response, Sophie uttered, “I don’t mind letting you go, but you need to apologize first.”

Still acting as cocky as ever, her counterpart spat, “Why should I apologize? Did I say anything wrong?

Kill me if you dare. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you suffer a fate worse than death!”

Just as he said those words, he was made to kneel by Sophie.

Seeing that, the others chimed in, “Sophie, this is the International Medical Association. This is no

place for you to act how you want.”

Sophie replied, “Is that so? Fine, I’ll just take my leave, then.”

“Leave? You’re not getting away that easily! Do you really think this is a place where you can come and

go as you please?”

Not only did she injure one of us, but she didn’t seem to have any remorse for her actions as well.

“Get security in here and detain this arrogant woman! I bet she’s a spy from Chanaea!”

Sophie scoffed at that.

A spy? What a joke!

Just then, Arius arrived. When he saw that Sophie was teaching the few people before her a lesson, he

scrunched up his brows.

Walking to her side, he asked in concern, “What happened? Are these people giving you a hard time?”

Sophie has never been one to act rashly unless someone provoked her. If someone dared mess with

her, she would teach whoever it was a harsh lesson, no matter who they were.

Unbothered by Arius’ presence, the other party insisted, “Both of you are from Chanaea. I bet you two

are spies sent by the Chanaeans! You have no intentions of helping us, do you?”

Anger surged through Arius when he heard that.

These impudent fools. We risked everything to come here to lend them a hand, and this is how they

repay us? By spouting nonsense?

He fumed, “What? We’re spies? Do you have any proof to back up your accusation?”

Just like that, the situation spiraled out of control.

Due to the fact that Anglandur was in a state of wariness right then, and the topic they had breached

was extremely sensitive, Sophie and Arius quickly became the target of public criticism.

Subsequently, a crowd surrounded them.

Arius took off his white coat and stated, “Since you all don’t seem to need our help, we’ll leave then. It’s

not like we’re desperate to stay here, anyway.”

We’ve been working our a*ses off day in and day out without any complaints, and they had the

audacity to insult Sophie and me? I’m really disappointed by these Anglandurans.

He turned to Sophie and said, “Let’s go, Sophie.”

“You can’t just up and leave like that. The only place you spies are going is the military court.”

Arius’ gaze turned colder when he heard that. “Do you even know who invited us here? The president

of your country asked us here! If he hadn’t begged us, do you think we would have come? After all,

sc*mbags like you aren’t worth saving.”

Seeing how Arius was insulting them, the few Anglandurans went and started a fight with him.

Naturally, Arius wasn’t someone who would just lie down and take a beating. Although they were all

colleagues before, he was aware these people had always looked down on Chanaeans.

As such, he didn’t spare them any mercy.

Unfortunately, he was still outnumbered and was soon at a disadvantage. Seeing that, Sophie

immediately jumped into action without caring that she was a woman.

Nonetheless, it soon became clear that these men weren’t her match as she kicked one of them, who

was six feet and three inches and weighed more than three hundred pounds, to the ground.

The commotion soon attracted the attention of a group of special forces who were guarding the

International Medical Association.

They surrounded the troublemakers, and while the men tried to pin all the blame on Sophie and Arius,

the latter two became uncharacteristically silent.

One of the men said, “Arrest them. These two are spies. We suspect they are responsible for the

mutated virus.”

Sophie stared at the man who spoke as though he was a fool.

The world has never lacked idiots before, but I guess they are in abundance this year, huh?

The captain of the special forces looked at the crowd and was at a loss of what to do when Sophie

gave the president of Anglandur a call.

When the call connected, she barked, “Since your people keep stirring up trouble here and making us

unable to work with peace of mind, you can solve Anglandur’s problems yourself!”

Once she was done, she passed the phone to the captain of the special forces.

When the captain received the phone and found out who he was talking to, he listened to the other

party’s instructions attentively.

The man who started the argument jeered, “Do you think you can scare us off by making a phone call?

Well, too bad for you. Captain, hurry up and arrest this woman!”

Right as he finished his words, however, he saw the captain handing back the phone to Sophie in a

respectful manner.

The captain then said, “We’re sorry, Ms. Tanner, but this is all just a misunderstanding. The president is

on his way here now.”

“You…” The man didn’t expect the president to go there in person, for he thought Sophie was simply

brought there by Barney.

No longer wanting to stay and bicker with them, Sophie snorted and left with Arius.

If this matter weren’t handled well, they would no longer work for the International Medical Association.

After all, the Anglandurans were openly insulting Chanaeans.

Being Chanaeans who loved their country, Sophie and Arius wouldn’t let anyone humiliate their

country.

As cold sweat flowed down his back, the captain of the special forces could only watch as the two left

the scene.

“Captain, what just happened? Who was on the phone earlier?”

“Who was on the phone earlier? It was the president, that’s who! You’d better start thinking of an

explanation to give him later!” The captain’s face was pallid as he spoke, for he didn’t expect to

encounter such a messy situation on the day he was on duty.
