Chapter 1350:
To the massive meat grinder, Samsonâs body was insignificant. At that moment, the mechanism stopped.
âThe wall can be pushed open.â Harlee, mustering her remaining strength, stood up but still leaned heavily against Rhys.
Rhys, concerned, wiped the sweat from her forehead with a gentle touch. Together, everyone pushed against the wall. They were all worn out, yet their faces were lit with the relief of narrowly escaping danger.
âRhys.â
Those who had made it out earlier were now gathered behind the wall, watching anxiously as each person emerged.
Once outside, Harlee felt slightly disoriented and leaned more heavily into Rhys. Her clothes were drenched, and the chilly wind caused her to shiver violently.
Rhys, without hesitation, removed his coat and wrapped it around her, his teeth clenched. âCold now, arenât you? Letâs see if you ever pull a stunt like that again.â
Rhys had previously used his undershirt to dress Harleeâs wounds, leaving his chest bare.

Snuggling into his warmth, Harlee said teasingly, âNot bad. You look quite appealing.â
âDonât worry, Iâll satisfy your cravings!â Rhys fixed his gaze on her, a cold smile playing on his lips.
Harleeâs smile froze at the implication of his words. âUm, Rhys, remember thereâs a baby in my belly.â
âOh, so you do remember about the baby. I thought you had forgotten!â Rhysâ tone was sharp.
At his words, Harlee looked nervous, aware that Rhys was not about to let the matter drop easily. She glanced at Serena for help.
Serena instantly understood and moved forward with respect. âRhys, let me check on Harlee first,â she said.
âOkay,â Rhys responded, gently supporting Harlee to a seated position. âBe careful. Sheâs injured everywhere but her belly.â
Harlee looked up, taken aback by his concern. He knew?
Rhys lightly tapped her head and said with a caring smile, âSo, donât think you can keep secrets from me!â
Harlee playfully stuck out her tongue but didnât respond verbally. She was hiding more than just a few secrets.
Serena, who had fetched her medical kit right after being rescued, was now ready to attend to Harlee. She knelt down and began tending to Harleeâs wounds.
âDid they rescue Lydia and Valentin?â Harlee asked.
âI informed Jianna as soon as I got out. She and Alina split up to rescue Lydia and Valentin,â Serena explained.
As Serena opened the bottle of disinfectant to clean Harleeâs wounds, she continued, âValentin was severely injured, so I asked Thiago to send Valentin and Lydia to the hospital for surgery.â
âYou didnât go with them?â Harlee asked, slightly puzzled.
âGoodwin is with them. Thatâs enough. I chose to stay here and wait for you and Rhys,â Serena answered, expertly cleaning Harleeâs wounds. Soon, she finished applying the bandages. âThis is just a temporary fix. Youâll need proper medical attention at the hospital.â
