Ill give you this chance.
She marched off toward the designated area, confident and unguarded.
Etta, rooted to her spot, slightly parted her lips.
She mulled over her words and then opted for silence, trailing Lindsay as if she were completely oblivious to Harlees intentions.
Wily as she was, Etta chose to remain at the entrance of the alley, ostensibly claiming to keep watch.
This position would ensure any altercation with Harlee would have witnesses.

Worried that Lindsay might redirect her wrath toward her after any confrontation with Harlee, Etta deliberated and eventually scrapped the idea of manipulating Harlee into executing her schemes.
She discreetly tugged Lindsay aside, her voice a whisper.
Miss Morgan, I doubt Harlee will offer any apologies.
She likely lured you here under pretenses, perhaps even to harm you! Lindsays response was a burst of laughter, brushing off the idea as ludicrous.

Lindsay figured she was the prized sole heiress of the Morgan family, whereas Harlee was merely her parents godchild.
The audacity of Harlee challenging her seemed far-fetched.
Etta observed Lindsays brazen disregard for the potential danger and secretly hoped Harlee would put an end to Lindsays recklessness on the spot.
Yet, she found herself whispering a caution to Lindsay, Miss Morgan, please remember, Angelas hospitalization was no accident.
It was because of Harlee.
Etta had never meant to speak so bluntly, but driven by her fear that Lindsay might unwittingly fall prey to Harlees scheming and later cast the blon her, she felt compelled to spell everything out clearly.
Etta added, Do you remember what happened with Angela at the boutique? Harlee put her in the hospital. Im worried Harlee might do the same... Lindsay, hearing Ettas earnest words, promptly dropped her facade of confidence and glanced toward Harlee, who was subtly making her way toward them.
She hastily began to distance herself.
Witnessing Lindsays sudden wariness brought a fleeting sense of relief to Etta.
Yet, how could Harlee possibly let them just walk away? With a casual pace, Harlee closed in on them.

She thrust two bouquets at their faces, the flowers nearly smothering them with pollen, leaving no chance for screams.
Clicking her tongue, Harlee remarked, Such a shfor these lovely flowers, wasted on an apology to someone like you! In Lindsays memory, aside from her mothers recent warning, no one had ever dared to touch her.
Even her grandparents, in their attempts at discipline, never did anything beyond superficial scolding, and certainly nothing that hurt her.
But now, here she was, hauled into a backstreet and discarded like garbage.
Such blatant aggression was unlike anything shed faced before.
Strangely, a wave of adrenaline surged through Lindsays body, m ve awakening a primal urge to retaliate.
A sinister voice within seemed to urge her to strike back harden m overpower Harlee completely, and deliver ruthless punishment.
Harlee studied Lindsays expression before glancing toward Etta, whb stood tensely at her side. Sensing the mood shift, Harlee smirked, her gaze sharp and taunting.
Etta shook with suppressed rage.
Lindsay fixed her piercing gaze on Harlee.
