Chapter 430:
He tenderly brushed a stray hair from her forehead before silently exiting the room.
In the living room, Patrick was ready with updates from Bart regarding the ongoing situation in Uwhor.
As Rhys approached, Patrick promptly stepped forward.
âMr. Green, weâve got news from Bart. Thereâs an update regarding Matteo.â
Rhys settled into the main chair, his expression turning grave.
âGo on.â
Patrick nodded, his face serious.
âOur contact within Uwhorâs right-wing government indicates that Miss Sanderson may be collaborating with them. Weâre still piecing together the details.
Additionally, Bart is planning a strike on Matteoâs largest gang, the Sapphire Cobras. They operate within both legal and illegal realms and are a major weakness for Matteo. We can disrupt part of his operations, but a complete takedown isnât possible.
Bart will provide more specifics when youâre available.â
Rhysâs expression deepened into a thoughtful frown after absorbing the update.
âDismiss the investigation into Harleeâs collaboration with the government.â
Patrick tensed at these words. The decision not to delve into the collaboration indicated Rhysâs unwavering trust in Harlee. Rhys had even managed to change his approach, exercising control over everything.
Clearly, Harlee held a special place in his heart.
Rhys then focused on the report from Bart, his determination clear in his voice.

âInstruct Bart to hold off on eliminating the Sapphire Cobras. Instead, have him place our people inside and fully bring this gang under our control.â
âRight away!â Patrick quickly acknowledged, sensing Rhysâs intense determination to solidify his power in Uwhor.
In addition to being the head of the Green Group, Rhys held another titleâMaster of the Underworld.
He had established information networks spanning multiple countries, capable of dismantling a gang or influencing governmental changes.
After the discussion, Patrick left the villa promptly. Once alone, Rhys quietly returned to the bedroom to check on Harlee. Seeing her peacefully asleep brought him comfort, and he moved to his study to attend to business matters.
Harlee continued to sleep soundly into the next day. Throughout the night, Rhys checked on her several times, each time carefully checking her breathing to ensure she was just deeply asleep before leaving, reassured.
The night had brought more snow.
By morning, Remson Manor was shrouded in a thick, enchanting blanket of white, transforming it into a serene winter wonderland.
Having not slept, Rhys started his day early by heading to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
Harlee still showed no signs of waking, having slept through an entire day and night.
At that moment, Patrick arrived, carrying a stack of company documents. When he saw Rhys cooking in the kitchen himself, he was almost speechless.
