Wes's arrival brought relief to Jeffrey.
After becoming a Soulmancer, Jeffrey had preferred to stay out of the public eye. He had taken on the role of the head of security here, living a reclusive life.
Today's incident was clearly a bit complex, and it was still unclear who was right and who was wrong. It wasn't ideal for him to engage in a life-or-death battle with Alice.
Especially considering that if it really came down to a fight, he didn't stand much chance of winning.
"Jeffrey, he's also one of our 13th Bureau's people. I believe there must be some misunderstanding here. I'll take the person away now and investigate this matter thoroughly. Sorry for the disturbance," Wes, now extremely adept at handling such situations, forced a smile, trying to minimize the issue.
What else could Jeffrey do? He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Alright, I trust you."
