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

Chapter 931:

For a fleeting moment, it seemed as if nothing had changed in the three years that had passed. Rhys’s eyes still shimmered with undiluted love for her alone. The love and worry in his gaze were unmistakable, radiating a purity that hadn’t faded in all that time. There were no hidden agendas.

Harlee’s thoughts wandered back to their days together in the dense rainforests of Uwhor, where their bond had deepened.

His gaze had been fixed entirely on her, undistracted by the lurking dangers around them.

“Okay.” It was a simple response from Harlee, but it carried profound meaning for both her and Rhys.

A joyful light lit up Rhys’s face, like a child waking on Christmas morning to find gifts waiting for him.

Yet, Harlee turned away, stepping down the cliffside.

His radiant smile was overwhelming, threatening to pull her back into old feelings.

Anika’s presence gnawed at Harlee’s heart like a persistent thorn, always reminding her when necessary.

Reaching the bottom, Harlee quickly assessed the adversary’s body, securing any critical items before coldly aiming her gun and delivering a decisive shot directly to his heart. She trusted her gun more than fate.

Above, Rhys misinterpreted the situation, thinking their adversary still lived and that the battle raged on.

He hurried down the path Harlee had taken, but in his haste, he stumbled and tumbled down the slope.

“Rhys!” Harlee exclaimed.

As Rhys tumbled down, the memory of him falling off the cliff years ago flooded Harlee’s mind, making her heart seize as if time itself had stopped.

Her breath seemed to vanish, her limbs growing numb.noveldrama

Instinctively, Harlee rushed to check on Rhys, though her soul had been stunned the moment he fell.

“I’m fine, Lee. I’m fine…” Rhys managed to say, blood staining his teeth from the fall. Still, he attempted to reassure her.

He understood the weight of this fall on Harlee. Though she masked her emotions with an expressionless face, he could sense her heart was already weeping.

He pushed aside the pain in his body, repeatedly assuring her that he was fine.

“The blood? It’s from earlier when I was shot. The fall wasn’t serious, really…”

Rhys repeated “It’s nothing” until Harlee’s rational mind began to resurface. With a stern demeanor, she tended to his wounds, asking, “Didn’t I tell you to stay up there? Why did you come down?”

“I heard gunshots, and I thought…” Rhys paused, his gaze dropping as he awaited her response.

Yet, she remained silent, her face impassive.

Seeing this, Rhys couldn’t help but smile faintly, recognizing the depth of her feelings for him beneath the indifferent facade she wore.

They were far from the city, and with Rhys injured, Harlee had no choice but to drag him to a nearby cave.

Considering Gruinia’s state, the motorcycle was likely stolen when Harlee attended to Rhys’s injuries.
