Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1175:

“I trust you,” Harlee said softly.

Robbie stepped forward without hesitation.

“Tonya, so do I.”

When Harlee arrived at Tonya’s hotel in Neshela, dawn was just a few hours away, the clock nearing four. Meanwhile, in Mogluylia, the early hours of the morning stretched closer to six. Rhys sat alone in a room with walls of glass, his phone idle in his hand.
