Even if their fate was sealed today, they could at least ensure the two captives wouldn’t escape with their lives.

“End them now! Get rid of those two inside…” he yelled, panic rising in his voice.

Harlee approached the man in black with calm, deliberate steps.

By this point, she had already neutralized most of the guards at the entrance with her handgun.

However, it wasn’t a lethal weapon she used, but a tranquilizer gun, which rendered them unconscious, their bodies slumped in a drug-induced stupor. She had no intention of leaving them unharmed.

Having eliminated the immediate threats, Harlee fixed her cold gaze on the man in black. She lazily lifted her eyelids to glance at him and then reached out, her fingers closing around his neck.

“End them?”

The look in Harlee’s eyes and the way she held him sent the man in black into a frenzy.

Anger and desperation flooded his senses as he began to sob uncontrollably, pleading for his life. Why? What had gone wrong? When he had been so close to returning to Uwhor, had fate dangled hope before him, only to rip it away?

The man in black stammered, “I… I’m Hale’s right-hand man. You can’t kill me. I know lots of secrets… Please, don’t end me. I’ll tell you everything if you spare me.”

Harlee had yet to even move, but her mere presence was enough to push the man in black to the edge of madness. Such was her influence in the underworld.

The man in black lowered his head, not truly mad, but hoping his words might buy him a shred of mercy.

However, with every plea he uttered, Harlee’s grip tightened, until he could no longer form words. Only then did she release him, sparing his life.

The man in black understood escape was impossible.

His men had all been taken down by Harlee’s gunfire, and based on Harlee’s calm and assured manner, the situation inside was likely just as bleak.

He didn’t need to guess to know he had already lost this fight.

However, the man in black refused to admit defeat.

He still aimed to finish the final task Hale had assigned to him.

Clenching his teeth, he mustered all his strength and broke free from Harlee’s grip, charging into the room with determination.

He was resolved to avenge Hale by eliminating Rhys’ parents.

Harlee observed his actions without haste. Tonya had once been curious about how she dealt with adversaries. Now, she could use this moment for some physical exertion.

Upon entering, the man in black quickly noticed Rhys’ parents were nowhere to be found.

He instantly regretted it.

He should have known Harlee would never engage in a fight unless she was certain of victory.

At last, he accepted the truth: he had been thoroughly beaten.

The man in black collapsed to the floor, despair washing over him as he clutched his head, his face contorted in anguish. One thought consumed him.

He regretted having been swayed by Kiaan’s words.

He should have dealt with Rhys’ parents at the hospital.
