Chapter 1415

Chapter 1415:

Harlee stood there, stunned. Lucius was completely off his rocker. If she were Nicola, there’s no way she’d even think about accepting his twisted affection—she’d probably kill him without a second thought. Keeping someone like him alive in society was a complete waste.

Originally, Harlee had planned to stick by Lucius and take her time getting him to spill his secrets. But now, she was leaning toward a much simpler, more direct method—bait him into a trap and then eliminate him for good.

“Fine, if you’re not afraid, we’ll go,” Harlee said, her voice steady.

“But first, I need to call Rhys. If I just show up on the island with you, do you think Rhys, who’s in the dark about everything, won’t order his men to shoot you on sight?”

“Don’t try to play any games!” Lucius spat, his voice seething with anger. Once, he’d been captivated by her quick wit. Now, it made his blood boil.

Harlee didn’t respond, nor did she ask for the phone. She simply stood there, her eyes empty of emotion.

Lucius, fighting the urge to tear into her, felt his patience wearing thin. He let out a slow breath, shoved the phone into her hand, and growled, “Here, hurry up!”
