Chapter 613

    ?Chapter 613: Maintaining her indifferent demeanor, Harlee reassured him.


    Dont worry.


    The scenario you dread wonte to pass.


    Youre well aware of the powerful ally I have.


    If he can secure my freedom, then youre certainly not beyond his reach.


    Rhys, witnessing the exchange, nodded in agreement, his eyes locked on Harlee, echoing her statement.


    Liams expression softened as he began to appreciate Harlees significance within the family.


    His smile lost its usual irritation, reced by a warmer, more genuine quality.


    Of course, I believe in you.


    Youre the Gill familys most outstanding child.


    Who else would I put my faith in? Harlees chuckle carried a sharp edge of sarcasm as her eyes shimmered mockingly.


    My name is Harlee Sanderson, and I am in no way connected to your esteemed Gill family.


    So, spare me the pretense of kinship.


    Its utterly repulsive! If you dare refer to yourself as my father one more time, Ill make sure every soul in Baythorn is aware of how the Gill family treated me in the past! Liamsplexion drained of color, his expression stiffening as his tone turned icy.


    Harlee, please reconsider your actions.


    If cutting ties with the Gill family is what you want, Ill support you.


    We can act like strangers from now on if thats what it takes.


    And if theres anything else you require from me, do not hesitate to ask.


    Even if its an outrageous request, I wont turn you down.


    I owe you that much.


    Taking a hesitant step closer, Liam lowered his voice, his wordsced with genuine regret.


    Discover fresh updates gαlnσν?ls Can we still talk? Just the two of us? I know Ive made so many mistakes, Harlee, but I want to make things right… Theres no need! Rhys interjected firmly, draping his arm protectively around Harlees waist and distancing her from Liam.


    Harlee is deeply loved by everyone around her.


    She doesnt need your bted reparations.


    Going forward, unless Harlee reaches out first, I trust youll keep to todays agreement and act as if shes a stranger, understood? Before Liam could formte a response, Harlees patience had worn thin.


    With a brisk tone, she dered, Ill reach out if need be.


    She then turned, walking away briskly with Rhys by her side.


    Left alone, Liam remained rooted to the spot long enough for his legs to numb.


    His gaze was a turbulent sea of emotion, torn between mourning the loss of a cherished daughter andmenting a severed influential tie.


    Originally nning to dine at the upscale Grand Oak, Liam stopped short and decided to go home instead.


    Laura was seated in the living room, her expression tense, as if waiting for news.


    The moment Liam stepped through the door, she rose swiftly, her concern evident.


    Liam, how did it go? Did you meet the youngdy from the Wagner family? she asked, her voice eager yet probing.


    Laura had rushed back from her countryside retreat nearly a month ago after hearing that Averie had gone missing.


    Wasting no time, she had begun orchestrating blind dates for Liam, determined to ensure he had a wife, one who could meet her strict standards.


    To Laura, Liam was a man destined for greatness.


    A capable, sessful man like him needed an equally capable partner.


    She seemed to have conveniently forgotten that Averie had been instrumental in securing half of the Gill familys business sess.
