“Locate him immediately.”

Both Hamilton and Patrick responded with sharp affirmations before hurrying out, determination etched into their faces. Rhys remained still for a moment and then turned to Harlee.

“Lee, Patrick’s information is likely accurate.

Hale’s presence in Baythorn means he’ll likely try to disrupt our engagement party.”

Rhys had heard from Bart about Hale’s fixation on Harlee.

Even in his earlier, less influential days, Hale had chased after Harlee with unyielding persistence. Now, with greater resources at his disposal, there was no doubt he would be even more determined. The real uncertainty lay in the approach Hale would take.

His fixation, violent tendencies, and lack of scruples meant that his methods would be nothing less than vile.

After finishing her soup, Harlee leaned back, her face impassive.

“I figured he’d make a move.

He has the advantage of secrecy, while we’re in the open.

For now, all we can do is wait.”

Rhys nodded grimly. Reinforcements had already been discreetly stationed at their engagement party venue to ensure everything proceeded smoothly.

Harlee and he would make sure Hale’s schemes came to an end.

At Rose Restaurant, Etta sat alone in a private room, massaging her temples. Lindsay was up to no good, forcing her to tread carefully.

Earlier, Lindsay had called, insisting Etta transfer every cent in her accounts, promising repayment—a claim Etta knew was hollow.

What truly unsettled Etta wasn’t the audacity of the request, but Lindsay’s precise knowledge of her financial situation. It was clearly premeditated.

The door creaked open, revealing Lindsay’s smug expression as she entered. Lindsay inwardly mocked Etta as a fool, her disdain hidden behind a saccharine smile. Lindsay had used her connections to get the pills tested and learned about the terrifying effects of the Bloodthirstiness Pill. Realizing Etta had also been affected, she had devised a plan, aiming to exploit Etta.

But Lindsay was well aware of Hale’s ruthlessness. To fuel her hatred, he had let life-sentenced prisoners beat her to the brink of death. If Etta faltered and revealed their plots to Hale, she would face dire consequences.

Lindsay didn’t beat around the bush.

“Hale wants you to slip this into Harlee’s drink at her engagement party. Once she’s had it, make sure no one gets near her. Three minutes later, someone will whisk Harlee away. You’ll need to create a distraction, something big enough to divert everyone’s attention and buy me time to disappear.”

Etta’s expression darkened, her hatred evident as she replied, “Fine. I’ll help you take Harlee.”

Lindsay’s face remained stern as she nodded.

“Failure is not an option.

After Harlee is gone, Hale will secure your place with the Sandersons. You’ll take her spot in the family.”

Lindsay leaned in, lowering her voice.

“I heard Skyla has brought the Juarez family’s nanny, Nyomi, to stay at the Sanderson villa. If you can, knock her out too. Should anything go wrong, like Harlee waking up early, I can use Nyomi to control her.”
