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

Chapter 1472:

“Sure. Let’s do barbecue. Oh, and ice cream too!” Harlee’s voice perked up at the mere mention of food, her sleepiness vanishing like mist under the sun.

With a playful glint in her eyes, she continued, “I’m craving something spicy, and make the ice cream chocolate.”

Rhys’ eyes softened with affection, a smile tugging at his lips. It was the kind of smile that said it all, as if he couldn’t have been happier than in that moment.

“Alright,” he replied with a tender nod.

Patrick, glancing at them through the rearview mirror, couldn’t help but let out an inward sigh. He used to think Rhys hated being kept in the dark above all else. But now, as the matter concerned Harlee, Rhys merely posed a question about it before brushing it off. Rhys’ devotion to Harlee was unwavering, willing to compromise his prior principles for her at any time. Patrick did not doubt that even if Harlee tricked Rhys, he would simply smile and once again confess to her.

Back at the hotel, the rich aroma of barbecue greeted them as soon as the door opened.
