"What a good child. If your father is as vibrant and kind as you, you might be drinking your afternoon tea after your lesson and spending a comfortable afternoon with your Chinese friend." Pabel had a motive. She wanted to save a leader of the al-Qaeda group who was caught by the government last week.
The leader was an important person. If not, she wouldn't expose herself.
Ye Jian could sense that Pabel had a motive. If not, she wouldn't be telling Betty all these. From her words, she could tell that Pabel would continue staying at the presidential palace using her identity as Betty's English teacher if it wasn't for an emergency situation.
"Betty, ask her what she needs from you. Try to make her contact the presidential palace." Ye Jian lowered her voice and spoke softly behind Betty's back. "We need to let the people in the presidential palace know that we are safe."
