?Chapter 872:


    Harlee looked upzily and instructed Tonya, “Send Rhys’ parents back and have Ritchie handle everything. I want to interrogate every one of them personally.”


    Tonya hesitated.


    “Aren’t you going to check on Jose and Belinda in person?”


    “No,” Harlee replied.


    “Just tell them I’m busy and will visit once I’m done.”


    The mental resolve Harlee had spent so much time building crumbled once again after Jose and Belinda were kidnapped.


    Outside the abandoned factory, Tonya rushed over to Jose and Belinda.


    “Harlee is still dealing with the aftermath inside. She asked me to take you home.” After saying this, Tonya gave Ritchie a meaningful nce. Without a word, Ritchie understood what she meant. She wanted him to go inside and help Harlee.


    Ritchie stepped forward, his tone firm as he addressed Jose and Belinda, “Mr. and Mrs.


    Green, you should head back first. I’ll go in and assist Harlee.”


    Belinda hesitated, her worry etched across her face.


    “You all should go help Harlee. We can manage on our own.” Though Harlee hadn’t visited Belinda since her fainting spell and hospitalization, Belinda harbored no resentment, knowing Harlee was either drowning in guilt or consumed by the chaos of handling the crisis.


    However, Jose felt differently.


    Ever since Rhys’ incident, he had ceased to view Harlee as his future daughter-inw.

    He was convinced the Sanderson family would never allow Harlee to marry into the Green family, as Rhys’ fate was still wrapped up in uncertainty.


    As for his feelings toward Harlee, they were never warm.


    He didn’t have any particr affection for her. In fact, he felt a certain hostility toward her, not wanting her to join the Green family. Therefore, herck of visits didn’t bother him. In fact, he didn’t even give it much thought.


    But there was one thing Jose couldn’t ignore: Harlee’s safety.


    He knew just how dangerous those kidnappers could be.


    He learned that the hard way when, in the hospital, he was knocked unconscious in a blink, unable to cry out for help. So, he hoped more people could help Harlee now.


    Jose chimed in, “Yes, we will be fine on our own. You should all go help her.”


    Tonya smiled, her expression calm yet assuring.


    “Don’t worry.


    Harlee is more capable than you think.” Tonya opened the car door and gestured for Jose and Belinda to get in.


    “Mr. and Mrs.


    Green, trust me. If I don’t take you back, Harlee will only worry more.”


    Seeing the determination in Tonya’s eyes and recalling how effortlessly Ritchie had knocked out an enemy with a single shot, Jose and Belinda trusted that Harlee would be safe with Ritchie around. With a soft sigh, they got into the car.


    As their car disappeared down the road, Ritchie sprinted toward the abandoned factory.


    But the moment he caught sight of Harlee, his pace slowed.
