Chapter 1214: The Green family and the elusive leader of the Sovereign of the Underworld. Rhys controlled a sprawling intelligence network spanning over a dozen countries. The Sovereign of the Underworld had the sharpest insight into the situation and wouldn't fall for such an obvious charade.
"No, they won't," Rhys replied, his tone resolute.
Harlee's lips pressed into a thin line as her deep, searching eyes locked onto Rhys'.
