Chapter 954:

The three of them quickly realized Harlee was signaling for them to pretend they knew nothing.

“Understood.”

That day, Brenton utilized the Sanderson Group’s official account to announce a press conference at 3:30 p.m. Meanwhile, Clint used his significant online presence to promote the event, generating considerable interest.

Curiosity piqued, the netizens ventured their questions.

“Wow, Clint’s been off the radar for the past six months. What’s he up to now?”

“Didn’t you get that? It means Harlee is hosting a press conference this afternoon!”

“If I’m not mistaken, it’s been two years since Harlee’s last press conference.

Back then, the internet buzzed for months over her announcement of marrying into the Green family despite Rhys’ uncertain fate.”

Online, speculation swirled about Harlee’s upcoming press conference, with everyone sharing their guesses.

Meanwhile, Anika, upon catching wind of the announcement, hurried back from Gruinia.

Assuming Harlee intended to publicly cut ties with Rhys, she booked the earliest flight, aiming to embarrass Harlee at the press conference.

After all, she considered herself Rhys’ girlfriend now.

At the commotion downstairs, Anika quickly went down to find Rhys leading a group of people into the house. She curbed her enthusiasm, waiting until everyone dispersed at 1:30 p.m. before sauntering over to Rhys and leaning seductively.

Against the wall, Anika asked, “Have you been busy preparing to reclaim control of the Green Group these past few days?”

Having heard Rhys’ plan to snatch the leadership back from Harlee, Anika wasn’t surprised by the influx of visitors to the villa.

Rhys nodded.

“Yes, the preliminary plan is in place. Why did you return sooner than expected? Weren’t you supposed to stay a few more days?”

Anika paused, uncertain whether to inform Rhys about Harlee’s press conference, fearing he might have regrets and attempt to intervene.

Noticing her hesitation, Rhys frowned.

“What’s the matter?”

Anika hesitated again before saying, “Rhys, did you know Harlee is holding a press conference? It seems like she might…”

Rhys interrupted, looking up sharply.

“What about her?” His eyes conveyed deep concern.

Anika’s tone shifted, laced with jealousy.

“Why do you seem so concerned about her?”

Rhys caught himself showing too much emotion. With Anika previously out of town, he had let his guard down.

Despite this, he decided not to explain, knowing all too well that explanations would only heighten Anika’s suspicions.

Rhys said, “Isn’t it natural for me to be interested? She’s now my competitor, and I must stay informed of her actions.”
