Chapter 622:
Her complexion turned ashen, her lips quivering.
âHarlee, after all, you were raised by Liam and me, your grandmother.
How can your heart be so cruel? The Sanderson family, known for its prestige, would surely disapprove of such a merciless individualâ¦â
Brenton cut in sharply, his tone icy.
âYouâre mistaken. The Sandersons appreciate those who tackle problems head-on.â
Lauraâs pointing finger shook dramatically.
âYouâ¦â she stuttered, at a loss for words.
Brenton found conversing with Laura so draining that he had the villaâs security team escort her off the premises.
Laura was forcefully removed by two imposing men dressed in black suits, their actions reflecting the villaâs stringent security protocols.
As Laura was led away, her body shook with anger and frustration.
Harlee observed the scene with a resolute and merciless gaze.
Inside the villa, Brenton tenderly took Harleeâs hand, guiding her with protective care. They meandered along the villaâs pebbled pathway when suddenly, Harlee halted, causing Brenton to look at her with concern.
âWhatâs wrong?â he asked, his voice laced with worry.
Harlee flashed him a reassuring smile.
âBrenton, I need a favor.â Known for his deep affection for his long-lost sister, Brenton was prepared to indulge any of her whims, regardless of their nature.

âOf course,â he responded without a secondâs hesitation.
âTell me what you need, and Iâll make sure itâs done.â
Harleeâs smile grew broader.
âItâs nothing too serious. I just want you to shift your stance toward the Gill family and start acting friendly with them.â
Brenton, who had braced himself to confront the Gill family, was taken aback by her request, a flicker of surprise crossing his dark eyes.
âAct friendly with the Gill family? Harlee, what are you plotting?â
Harlee, her smile tinged with mischief, expressed her resolve.
âI want them gone, completely erased from my life, but I donât want you caught up in any shady schemes.
Hereâs my plan: When you act friendly with the Gill family, theyâll be none the wiser, thinking they have something to gain from me.
And just when their hopes peak, Iâll bring their world crashing down, ensuring they canât ever recover or interfere in my life again.â
Her strategy was clear. She would tackle the burden of the Gill family on her own terms, steering clear of any legally dubious actions.
She was intent on preserving the Sanderson familyâs reputation and honoring her promise to a mysterious figure not to harm the innocent without just cause.
Brenton absorbed her detailed plot, his expression thoughtful as he weighed her words. Their strategic discussion was suddenly interrupted by Kane, who approached them breathlessly.
âMr. Sanderson, Miss Sanderson, your father awaits you in the study,â he announced.
