Chapter 751:
Nevertheless, she eagerly sought to gain the favor of his family, a testament to her dedication to him. Rhys was swamped with gratitude.
Harlee kept her words sparse, simply asking Rhys to put her down.
âLetâs grab a bite after I freshen up. Then, we can head out,â she remarked.
While Rhys was occupied handling her brothersâ demands, Harlee had covertly orchestrated for Ritchie to assemble thoughtful presents for both Jose and Belinda. The gifts were carefully chosen to leave a lasting impression, hoping to prompt them to reconsider their initial reluctance.
Over breakfast, Harlee mulled over the idea of contacting Ritchie for more gifts, but a call from Aurora intercepted her plans.
âCan you swing by the physics lab right now? Weâve stumbled upon a unique energy wave. Kieran and Lenny believe it could be pivotal for our new energy project, but theyâre too cautious to proceed alone.
Could you help us out with the tests?â Aurora inquired.
A unique energy wave? Harleeâs eyes sparkled with curiosity once more. She had a natural fascination for venturing into uncharted territory.
Harlee had already made a promise to Rhys to visit the Green family.
Despite her fascination with the unique energy wave, she didnât want to upset Rhys, not even a little.
So, without a second thought, Harlee declined.
âI donât have time right now to help with your experiment.â
Right after she spoke, Kieran responded over the phone, âHarlee, we can wait for you as long as itâs not more than ten days.â

Since they could waitâ¦
Harlee thought it over for a second.
âAlright, Iâll come by tomorrow.â She was really interested in the unusual energy wave.
After Harlee hung up the phone, Rhys, who had just finished his work, walked over. Seeing her excited expression, he asked, âLee, did something good happen?â
Harlee promptly shared the recent phone conversation.
âA special energy wave?â
Rhys quirked an eyebrow.
âThat does sound interesting. Why donât you go to the experiment first? Visiting my family can wait until tomorrow.â
He knew Harlee was always eager to dive into areas new to her. Particularly with this energy wave, sheâd definitely want to check it out herself.
Harlee smiled.
âNo need.
Going tomorrow will be just fine.â
Meanwhile, ever since they heard Harlee was coming, Jose and Belinda frowned, their faces clouded with discontent. When Rhys brought up Harleeâs visit, Jose had flatly said no, even stating that the Green family would never allow a Sanderson daughter to marry in.
However, Rhys didnât just ignore Jose.
He also warned that if they made Harlee feel even slightly uncomfortable, he would cut off their share of the profits, effectively ending their financial support.
