Celestial Queen: Revenge Is Sweet When You’re A Zillionaire Heiress

Chapter 990:

A new scheme began to form in her thoughts. Taunting and repulsing Harlee had proven unproductive. To ensure Harlee wouldn’t reconcile with Rhys, she needed to erase Harlee’s presence.

Additionally, Eugenia had hinted that Harlee’s continued presence obstructed their grand schemes. Therefore, Harlee must be removed from the picture forever.

Anika inhaled deeply, suppressing the chaos inside, and met Harlee’s gaze with a composed expression.

“I apologize for my earlier actions.”

Anika’s apology pleased Eugenia, as it saved her a lot of trouble.

Eugenia chimed in, “Miss Sanderson, Anika is my closest friend. I trust you’ll forgive her mistakes.”

Eugenia’s words carried an unspoken message, hinting that Harlee should let go of any grudges for her sake.

Harlee nodded coolly.

“It depends.” It wasn’t a definitive agreement, but rather a suggestion that Anika’s future actions would determine her response.

Clearly, Harlee implied that she could honor the past promise but wouldn’t extend further chances to someone like Anika, aware of Anika’s true nature.

As for Eugenia, having connected to someone like Anika, she was expected to change.

Upon hearing Harlee’s words, a simmering resentment rose in Anika.

However, on the surface, she maintained a demeanor of compliance and calm, as if genuinely acknowledging her mistake.

“Miss Sanderson, I realize I overstepped earlier, but I’ve apologized. Surely, there’s no need for such hostility, is there?”

Anika’s voice sounded earnest, her posture contrite, but her eyes betrayed the venom she harbored. Once her new poison was perfected, she would ensure Harlee suffered a fate beyond imagining.

Originally planning to turn away and leave, Harlee paused, glancing at Anika with a sly grin.

“You said I was hostile toward you?”

Anika recoiled, her hand instinctively going to her neck, still haunted by the choking grip she’d endured moments earlier.

Harlee declared, “You should open your eyes and see the world. Stop living in your little fantasy. Rhys is just a normal guy, nothing worth boasting about.”

As Harlee walked away, Anika clenched her teeth in fury, her eyes seething with venom. She swore vengeance on Harlee, vowing to make the latter suffer a horrifying end one day.

Meanwhile, Rhys had been observing from afar. Seeing Harlee handle the situation with ease, he silently departed.

However, just as Rhys was about to leave the parking lot, Harlee strolled up to him slowly with her hands in her pockets.

“Enjoying the view from the shadows?” Harlee hadn’t meant to meet Rhys, but once she spotted him lurking, she couldn’t resist confronting him.

Rhys was taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Harlee to notice him hiding in such a hidden spot. Unsure of what to say, he remained silent.
