"It seems I can't keep anything from you. Yes, I'm here for you, but I also have business to attend to." "Fine, you may follow me." Having noticed Rhys looking tired by midday, Harlee felt a surge of empathy and probably wouldn't decline if he suggested spending intense nights together.

"I'll send you a million to protect Virginia and Ulises for ten minutes each. I'll be there in half an hour." galhosts fresh updates Harlee then ended the call.
Rhys asked, "How about dinner together tonight?" "Sure." As she spoke, Harlee pecked Rhys on the cheek, grabbed her coat from the single sofa, and hurried out.

At Winbrough University, upon Harlee's arrival, Hazel, Zora, and Hazel's suitor, Michael Sampson, were gathered on the sports field. Virginia and Ulises were encircled, with the informant, Oakley Ferguson, frantically defending them.
"Ms. Sanderson, thank goodness you're finally here! I was nearly beaten to a pulp!" Oakley exclaimed.

Virginia is standing here without a scratch, while I was beaten so severely that I nearly becdisfigured. Is that really what you call us starting a fight with Virginia?" "Do you want to disfigure your face?" Harlee asked abruptly.
Hazel felt a chill run down her spine.
