Chapter 542:
âThank God youâre safeâ¦â Rhys muttered before his legs gave out and he collapsed.
Harlee wasted no time. She jumped back down, grabbed the submachine gun, and unleashed a final wave of firepower at the approaching enemies.
Just then, Ritchie and Tonya burst onto the scene with reinforcements, followed by Hamiltonâs men. The enemy was swiftly neutralized.
Ritchie and Tonya rushed to Harleeâs side.
As Tonya knelt, ready to check for Harleeâs injuries, Harlee said firmly, âIâm fine. This is Rhysâ blood.â
Harleeâs calmness was unnerving, almost unnaturally so.
âRhys was shot. Tonya, we are going to the hospital. Now.â
âGot it!â
Harlee turned to Ritchie, who was already preparing to move Rhys.
âTiffany is in another car. Rhys said my brother went after her. Take a dozen men and make sure they come back in one piece. I gave Tiffany my watch. Use it to track them.â
Without missing a beat, Ritchie nodded, quickly assembling his team and setting off.
Tonya and Harlee moved quickly, helping Rhys into the back seat of the car. Tonya worked fast to stabilize Rhysâ wounds while Harlee drove.
After the emergency treatment, Tonya looked at Harlee and asked, âShould we head to the nearest hospital?â
Rhysâ condition was critical, and Tonyaâs heart pounded with the fear of losing precious moments that could be the difference between life and death.

However, Harlee shook her head firmly.
âNo, we are going to that special hospital!â
This wasnât just any hospital. It had the most advanced medical equipment in the world. There, Tonyaâs skills and precision could give Rhys a fighting chanceâa one hundred percent shot at survival.
âThat hospital?â Tonyaâs voice was thick with disbelief as she looked between Harlee and Rhys. It was clear Harlee had truly fallen for Rhys.
Tonya knew Harlee always had her own plans, so instead of questioning Harlee, she chose to trust her judgment.
The hospital Harlee referred to wasnât just any medical facility. It was a secret one Harlee had co-founded with the government.
Led by Tonyaâs medical expertise, the facility had evolved into a specialized institution for military medicine and viral prevention. Its location was a closely guarded secret, known only to Harlee, Tonya, and a select few high-ranking officials.
Even Fleming, the renowned medical researcher, didnât know its exact locationâhe only knew of its existence.
On the drive there, Tonya couldnât suppress her worry.
âHarlee, arenât you concerned those two senior officials might cause trouble for you?â
The hospital was off-limits to everyone except those with significant national contributions, and its very existence was a closely guarded secret.
Harlee shrugged nonchalantly.
