Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 1778:

“I understand that Celine had issues with you in Uwhor. I saw you here today and thought I’d warn you. You’ve never paid attention to her, but she has definitely been watching you.” Melba gazed at Harlee, searching for any sign of reaction. Seeing none, she felt a twinge of disappointment.

Nonetheless, Melba continued, “I’ve had a few run-ins with her. She can be quite malicious. I believe she’s capable of hurting you.”

It appeared that Celine had already started to threaten Melba’s position within her own family, prompting her to share this information with Harlee. They both had a common enemy, after all, so why not join forces?

Melba added, “Her real father is Mylo, the first duke in Mechuique to be stripped of his title.”noveldrama

Harlee gave her a nonchalant look. “Take that as a token for your willingness to share.”

With that, Harlee turned and walked toward Tiffany and Elva. She had spotted them even before Tiffany saw her. Upon Harlee’s approach, Elva couldn’t contain her curiosity.

“Harlee, what did Melba tell you? Any juicy gossip?”

Harlee was open about the encounter and summarized what Melba had shared. Tiffany wasn’t familiar with Celine, but Elva knew her well.

After hearing Harlee’s words, Elva’s heart started pounding uncontrollably, a sense of unease washing over her.

Logically, Harlee was too strong for Celine to pose any real threat, but Elva couldn’t shake her anxiety, fearing something was going to happen. Given Celine’s capabilities, she wouldn’t dare confront Rhys or Harlee directly, as she couldn’t outmatch them. The most vulnerable target was likely…

Elva clutched Harlee’s hand nervously. “Harlee, I’ve got a bad feeling. I worry Celine might go after Felix.”

Harlee’s expression darkened immediately. It was better to be cautious than to live with regret. Even though the Sanderson family’s villa was heavily guarded, their bodyguards wouldn’t stand a chance against elite assassins. If Celine was willing to spend a fortune on hiring killers, then…

With this thought in mind, Harlee quickly called Thiago.

“Head to the Sanderson family’s house right now and make sure to protect Felix at all costs!”

After ending the call, Harlee immediately tried contacting her parents, but neither of their phones answered. Her heart dropped, yet her expression remained composed. She quickly dialed Rhys, briefed him on the situation and the possible danger Celine posed to their child, and then hurried home as fast as she could.

During her drive, a call from Thiago came through.

“Harlee, we have a problem.” Thiago’s tone was urgent and laced with anger. Upon arriving at the Sanderson family’s villa, he discovered that Lonnie had already taken Felix to visit a neighbor, so he rushed there next.

The neighbor explained they had arranged to meet, but he had been waiting at home in vain—Lonnie and Felix never arrived.

“Your father and your son are both missing,” Thiago said, his voice shaking slightly.

“Calm down.” Despite the turmoil inside her, Harlee forced herself to remain steady. “Inform Robbie and the others. I want every resource exhausted to locate my father and Felix. And don’t make any moves unless their safety can be guaranteed.”

“Understood!” Thiago responded with resolve, his tone sharp and deadly serious. The members of Twilight, though longing for peace after their active days, were far from rusty. The sheer audacity of someone targeting Lonnie and Felix infuriated him. He would make them pay—severely.
