Zach's voice turned cold instantly, "Let them in." Aman and a woman in black and white suits held briefcases as they walked in. They looked like some officers. They were wearing name tags on their chests.

However, Zach leveraged his influence to arrange for officers to visit the Jent residence, facilitating the process at his convenience.

You two may continue.” Madelyn said, "Zach Jardin! You jerk! Without my consent... | won't allow you all to do this!"
