Chapter 1600:

Harlee’s expression was unreadable as she glanced at Rhys before settling next to Brixton, her demeanor poised.

“Alright, I’ll have some chocolate ice cream, and make it quick—ten minutes.”

When Rhys noticed Harlee’s playful demeanor, he immediately realized she must have seen the pictorial report Patrick prepared. His expression softened into a tender, though resigned, smile. He stood and joined her at the table. As Rhys approached, Patrick tensed up momentarily. Was Harlee about to deliver a swift kick to Rhys? Or perhaps even stomp on him?
