Chapter 647:

Hale gave her a sharp glance.

“I hear the Sandersons disapprove of Rhys. They don’t want him to be part of their family.”

“That’s correct,” Etta replied with practiced efficiency.

“Rhys angered the Sanderson family by breaking off the engagement despite their long-standing ties, and when he sought reconciliation, they retaliated financially, causing the Green Group to suffer significant losses.”

Etta had been by Hale’s side all this time.

Hale studied Etta’s increasingly obedient face, satisfied with her growing loyalty.

“Good. I’ve had Harlee and Rhys investigated.”

Relay the findings to Lonnie without exposing yourself.” If he couldn’t sever their relationship, he’d let Harlee’s most trusted individuals do it for him.

He was eager to see whether Harlee, who cherished her family above all else, would side with the Sandersons or stand by Rhys. Yet, regardless of her choice, the outcome wouldn’t change.

He was confident she was destined to belong to him. The harder Harlee was to obtain, the stronger Hale’s desire became.

She was the only woman who had ever stirred any real emotion in him, and he wasn’t about to let her go.

Etta bowed her head slightly.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Norris. I’ll quietly reveal Rhys and Harlee’s connection to the Sandersons without leaving any trace back to you.”

Hale gave a dismissive gesture, signaling her to proceed.

As Etta turned to leave, her expression shifted for just a moment.

A flicker of greed and spite crossed her face.

Even as she followed orders, she harbored her own agenda. She vowed to strip Harlee of her status, even if it meant aiding a villain to achieve her goal.

At the Juarez residence, anger clouded Elvin’s expression as he reviewed the statement released by the Sanderson family. Skyla had brazenly produced the contract from years past, one that marked her estrangement from her mother. Was Skyla prepared to escalate things this far?

A sardonic chuckle escaped Elvin’s lips.

He figured Skyla’s disregard for familial duties was undeniable, and he knew just how to leverage it. With a strategically timed press conference, he could easily sway public sentiment back to their side.

As for the contract, Elvin had tampered with it long ago. Originally, his scheme involved using it when his mother became too burdensome, planning to shift her care onto Skyla’s shoulders. Now, it served a different purpose, a twist he hadn’t anticipated. This secret manipulation bolstered his confidence immensely.

With a self-satisfied grin, Elvin grabbed his phone and dialed Liam’s number.

“Are you ready?”

From the other end, Liam’s groggy voice betrayed his irritation, having been roused from his slumber.

“How could I be? It’s been less than twenty-four hours. It’s practically a miracle to have everything prepared so swiftly!”
