Chapter 317: Chapter 317

Chapter 317:

Collin was their future son-in-law! How could they explain this to the George family? Without the George family’s financial support, how could they sustain their luxurious lifestyle?

Liam’s and Averie’s eyes sparkled with rage.

Averie gritted her teeth.

“Harlee, are you asking for trouble? Collin is…”

Harlee didn’t give her a chance to finish.

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes, her voice steady.

“I lack tolerance for bullshit. Say one more word, and I’ll take you both down!” As Harlee’s cold stare swept over them once more, Liam and Averie felt their hearts skip a beat, their legs shaking uncontrollably.

Averie bit her lower lip so forcefully that it left a mark.

Liam and Averie stood silently, watching Harlee walk away until they were certain she was out of earshot. Only then did they turn to Collin, their faces filled with concern.

“Collin, are you alright? Let me check your face.

How dare she hit you so hard…”

Collin brushed off their hands irritably, his eyes cutting like daggers.

How useless these two are! “I’m leaving,” he said, his tone cold and distant. Without another word, he walked away.

Liam and Averie remained standing there, looking awkward. Liam’s face was etched with worry. Was he really going to witness the downfall of the Gill family?

As evening arrived, stars began to twinkle above. Rhys drove directly to the Green family estate after getting off the plane. Previously, he had only verbally declined the engagement in front of journalists and hadn’t formally ended it. Now, he returned home to officially break it off.

Rhys’ long and slender fingers clenched the steering wheel, a mix of emotions visible in his deep eyes.

His mind raced with thoughts.

He was unsure how to lessen the damage of breaking off the engagement.

His car smoothly entered the villa grounds, and as it came to a stop, a servant hurried over.

“Mr. Green, you’re back.”

Rhys’ expression eased as he nodded to the servant, then quickly made his way into the main hall.

His mother, Belinda, was all smiles at Rhys’ rare visit.

“Why did you come back at this late hour?”

Rhys muttered a reply, “I just got back to the country.” He loosened his suit jacket, adjusted it casually, and approached Belinda.

He stood with his head bowed, respectful.

“Mom, the engagement between the Green and Sanderson families was never meant to be serious.”
