RedNovelChapter 1326: Harlee wasn't being impulsive; she was thoroughly prepared. The Fletcher family needed help, but she wasn't going to put herself at risk. Why was she so confident? Because she had a strong backup plan in place! She couldn't bear the thought of any harm coming to her unborn child, nor of Rhys suffering from guilt if something went wrong. Unfortunately, this backup plan had to remain a secret. Even if she disclosed it, Rhys would still be anxious. Unless he kept her right by his side, his worries would persist.
"You're the best, darling." Harlee leaned in, giving Rhys a sweet smile. Ever since their marriage, this gesture had always worked on him. Rhys instinctively tightened his hold around her waist and whispered near her ear, "Lee, you really havewrapped around your finger." "You don't like it?" Harlee looked up at him, one eyebrow raised, still smiling.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and pointed toward the villa with a playful smile, saying, “Con, I'll take you and show you how to deal with speople." Rhys chuckled. Since Harlee becpregnant, he found her moods ever-changing and unpredictable. If Harlee knew his thoughts, she would probably reply, "You've taughtwell!" Together, they approached the main entrance of the Fletcher villa. Robbie, Patrick, and a few others were already there, having cleared any obstacles ahead.

Ten years ago, he had been a dashing figure, but now he stooped, his appearance worn and deeply aged, as if the last decade had multiplied his years.
Harlee had decided to save the former butler's life at Paulina's request after choosing to assist the Fletcher family. Otherwise, he would have been a casualty in the earlier shootout.
The remaining employees of the Fletcher family household, like Samson, were utterly without honor.
"Samson and his family are all inside," Robbie said as he approached. Harlee gave a slight nod, walked past him, and was about to enter the building.
Just then, a voice rang out from behind Harlee.

The former butler, tears in his eyes and his body shaking, looked at Serena, who was trailing behind Harlee and Rhys. "I never thought I'd have the chance to see you again. It's truly a blessing from above!" Harlee's expression grew cold as her eyes moved from the former butler to Serena. The butler's face was emotional, his eyes betraying a sense of shas he fought back deep-seated remorse. He had never expected that bringing Serena back would lead to her past suffering.
"What do you want?" Serena stood motionless, her face devoid of expression, barely acknowledging the former butler.
The former butler gripped his clothes tightly, and after a lengthy silence, finally gathered the courage to say, "Miss Fletcher, once you've resolved matters here, my fate is in your hands."
Years ago, he had aligned with Samson, hoping to secure his position within the Fletcher family by exploiting Serena. Ironically, it was she who ended up saving him. He felt he had no right to apologize. All he could do was offer his life for her to judge.
"Enough with your bullshit," Serena responded indifferently, her gaze as chere only m cold as ice. "I cbecause Harlee as askedto." It was clear that if not for Harlee, Serena would not have returned to the Fletcher family villa.
