?Chapter 698: Rhys response was a soft, amused hum, his wordsced with a hint of admiration.


    Im impressed you noticed such a minor detail.


    If you keep this up, Ill have no secrets left to guard, not even my hidden stash of sweets.


    With a gentle pat on his chest, Harlees eyes narrowed yfully.


    Come on, cut the jokes.


    Tell me.


    Whats the situation with Elvin and Liam at this moment? Harlee asked.


    She had been swamped with managing Hales challenges and Robbies troubles recently, losing track of Elvins and Liams cunning maneuvers.


    Now, with a moment to breathe, she was eager to catch up on their exploits.


    Rhys knew he couldnt evade the topic any longer.


    Elvin sneaked a mole into Liams group, aiming to mess with his car as a harsh lesson.


    Liam, on his part, isnt just sitting back.


    Hes turned an old housekeeper loyal to the Juarez family into his informant to sniff out any suspicious moves.


    To the world, they might seem like buddies, but behind the scenes, theyre eachying traps to bring the other down.


    Harlee was captivated by the depth of Rhyswork, even to the extent of knowing who had been bribed.


    So, you actually orchestrated the cement of those spies? Rhys responded with a half-smile, acknowledging her perceptiveness.


    Indeed, you see right through it, Harlee.


    Their ns were unfolding at a snails pace, and your distress over it was palpable.


    Thus, I expedited things a bit.


    Naturally, both Elvin and Liam believe theyre outsmarting each other.


    I just lent a hand.


    ?????尺乇 ひ卩?卂ㄒ乇丂 丨几 galη????ve?s.


    ￠σм Through it all, the Gill Group, merely a corporate veneer, seeded in swaying a trusted servant of a wealthy family.


    All the while, Liam, blinded by his own ego, never questioned the ease of his machinations.


    And yet, Elvin somehow found a way to be even more outrageous.


    He naively believed that a mere tens of thousands of dors would be sufficient to persuade a drivers cousin, a total stranger, to stake everything for him.


    Such a pitiful judgment.


    Did he truly hold such a trivial view of ordinary folks? Piecing the situation together, Harlee shed anguid smile, her interest waning swiftly.


    She shifted her focus to another subject.


    By the way, regarding those men you lent mest time, did you train them yourself? Robbie couldnt stop talking about how disciplined they were.


    He said they were sharper than the soldiers from Uwhor! Yes, theyre mine, Rhys confirmed with a casual flick of his wrist.


    Harlee, I think I failed to mention… I go by another name, the leader of Sovereign of the Underworld.


    Harlee found herself momentarily at a loss for words.


    She had always considered herself quite remarkable, yet here was someone surpassing even her grandeur.


    Contemting the challenges her brothers had set for Rhys, Harlee suddenly shed all her previous concerns.


    It wasnt Rhys capability that worried her now.


    It was whether her brothers could withstand the blow to their pride after Rhys handled the challenges so effortlessly.


    Not intrigued enough to probe further? Rhys teased, an amused glint in his eye.
