Chapter 1714:

As the call disconnected, a faint, almost imperceptible smirk ghosted across Serena’s lips. Did Errol really think he could outmaneuver Harlee? That was about as likely as a mouse outwitting a hawk. If history had proven anything, it was that those who made themselves Harlee’s problem never lived long enough to regret it.

Meanwhile, inside the airport’s VIP lounge, Elva had practically fused herself to Harlee’s side the moment Errol’s name was uttered, her unease as visible as the tension in her clenched fists.

Elva remained silent until Harlee finally set her phone down. Only then did Elva lean in, her voice hushed but urgent.
