NovelEndChapter 1075 Chapter 1075: "Harlee, I understand your desire to know about Rhys, but I genuinely can't tell you..." Harlee's frustration mounted. She rubbed her temples, her irritation growing, and pushed on.
"Fine, I won't ask why Rhys assigned you this task. Just tell me, what can you share?" "Nothing." Hamilton's resignation deepened.
He wanted to reveal everything to Harlee, but he had made a promise to Rhys that no matter the circumstance- not even the threat of death-would make him break his silence.
After all, beyond their professional connection, he and Rhys had been like family for years.

But her anger wasn't easily extinguished. She quickly typed a message to Patrick, simply stating, "Hamilton has always been aware of Rhys' dealings." Patrick's concern for Rhys rivaled Hamilton's.
Harlee's motive for revealing the truth to Patrick was simple. Once Patrick realized that Hamilton had been hiding matters involving Rhys that shouldn't have been kept secret, he would undoubtedly confront Hamilton harshly.
Although Hamilton's actions weren't irredeemable, Harlee couldn't resist the urge to make him pay for his mistakes. When Harlee's message reached Patrick, he immediately sought out Hamilton to confront him. Without a word, Patrick delivered a fierce kick to Hamilton's chest. It wasn't until Patrick pinned Hamilton down and landed punches from both sides that he finally explained his reason for the attack.

As Harlee reached for the car door, barely opening it, a group of rugged men approached her. The ones at the front were the bleached-haired troublemakers she had seen at the café.
The leader glared at her with hostility.
"Lady, hand over ten million, or you'll regret it!" Grinning, two thugs beside him quickly chimed in.

Hand over ten million and the keys, and maybe we'll let you go." "Are you seriously robbing me?" Harlee sneered.
"You must have a death wish." "You..." The leader's face darkened with anger.
"You're not walking away! I want the cash, the car, and you! Everyone, get her!" With that, the henchmen behind the three thugs surged forward, brandishing wooden bats.
These henchmen were notorious in Baythorn's underbelly, known for their ruthlessness. No one in their territory dared challenge them. Surrounded by them, most would have panicked.
Harlee, however, saw them as nothing more than an outlet for her simmering fury. It was the perfect opportunity to vent.
She tossed her laptop and phone into the car, calmly shutting the door as men closed in. novelenglish.net! the in. The content is on mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
