Chapter 784:

After taking down that fraud syndicate, you told me to take a break, and it’s been nearly three years since we last spoke. If it weren’t for the occasional news from the Shadow Moon Society, I’d have thought I was kicked out.

By the way, I heard you’re getting engaged. I’d love to see your joy.”

Harlee placed the phone down on the table and pushed it slightly away, interjecting sharply, “Get to the point.”

The man on the other end, Jonathan Archer, was the first member of the Shadow Moon Society, which Harlee had established.

Apart from being the son of a noble from Uwhor, Jonathan was also the chief of the international police organization.

Jonathan massaged his temples, resigned.

Despite the years, Harlee’s approach hadn’t softened.

He found Tonya more endearing.

Yet, Tonya hadn’t taken to the man he’d suggested and had instead fallen for Ritchie, his “sworn enemy.”

Jonathan exhaled a sigh, saying, “Can’t I just call to chat?”

“You have ten seconds,” Harlee said curtly.

“I actually do have something important…” Jonathan quickly interjected.

“You’re aware of yesterday’s incident, right? I heard those two hold a grudge against you, so when the head of Gruinia pushed for their release using his influence, I rejected it. I reached out to Tonya immediately, and she mentioned those two were caught thanks to your strategy. Is that true? Should I release them? Do you want me to bring them to you?”

Gruinia was infamous for its fraud operations and served as a tool for Mechuique. Not long ago, Harlee and Kareem had taken down Gruinia’s largest fraud network, and more recently, they’d managed to have its leading figure arrested by international police.

At the recent international meeting, Gruinia aggressively demanded the return of the two, putting pressure on the international police through Mechuique. Jonathan was aware of the two’s animosity toward Harlee, prompting his urgent call, though initially, he couldn’t reach her.

Fortunately, from Tonya, Jonathan learned that the capture of the two had been part of Harlee’s plan.

Because of this, he knew he couldn’t release them so carelessly, or capturing the leading figure of the fraud syndicate again wouldn’t be so easy.

The destiny of these two wasn’t vital to the organization, but if Harlee was displeased, their problems would only multiply. That was why Jonathan, as the respected head of the international police, had joined the Shadow Moon Society.

Harlee calmly directed, “Release them temporarily to catch bigger fish.”

Jonathan instantly grasped Harlee’s plan, his eyes sparkling.

“You’re brilliant!” His voice brightened considerably.

“Alright, I’ll let those two go for now, and when we’ve apprehended the key players, I’ll hand them over to you.

Anyway, are you really tying the knot? I heard your engagement celebration is scheduled for the end of this month. May I come and join the celebration?” Jonathan was practically pleading.

He knew better than to attend Harlee’s engagement party without her explicit approval.

Harlee declined immediately.
