Harlee noticed Errol’s hostile look but remained indifferent. To her, his expressions were merely entertaining. She was well aware of the Happer family’s movements, thanks to Stefan’s surveillance. Except for a few secrets under Errol’s direct command, she knew nearly everything about him. Anticipating that Errol and Nola might approach her, Harlee was prepared.
