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

Chapter 1219:

Rhys grinned.

“Isn’t that what we’re already doing?”

“Then let’s take the uncharted mountain path.”

She seized his hand and they dashed toward a rugged path that offered better cover.

“They’re here, this way!” someone yelled.

A large group began to pursue.

Clutching Rhys’ hand tightly, Harlee sprinted into the unknown. Suddenly, a flare shot up, casting a bright light over the area. She glanced back and spotted several familiar faces.

“Harlee, that path is too rough! We need to break through instead!”noveldrama

Harlee turned toward the voice and saw Tonya signaling them with one hand while operating a machine gun with the other. It wasn’t just Tonya. Robbie, Hamilton, Patrick, and Christopher were all there as well.

Harlee was taken aback. Weren’t they supposed to be on standby for more instructions? But the immediacy of the situation demanded action. She seized Rhys’ hand and dashed toward their group.

“Over here!” Tonya called out as soon as Harlee reached them, guiding her onto a smoother trail. It was evident they had secured an escape plan.

“How did you all get here?” Harlee asked, keeping pace with them.

Before anyone could reply, a horde of adversaries emerged, chasing them. The urgency of the escape consumed everyone’s attention, leaving no chance for answers.

Just then, explosions thundered continuously, quickly filling the mountain with smoke.

“What’s happening?” Tonya asked, glancing back at the relentless blasts behind them.

Harlee, surrounded by her allies, responded indifferently, “Since…”

“He fails to exact his revenge, his next step is to completely destroy this place.”

Her statement instantly heightened the tension within the group.

“He?” Robbie asked, confused.

“Matteo,” Harlee answered, her tone chilling as she kept her eyes on the fiery destruction enveloping the mountain.

“Matteo?” Upon hearing this familiar name, everyone was struck with disbelief and shock.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have stuck to seeking harsh revenge.” Harlee bowed deeply to the group, full of self-reproach. She held herself accountable. If she hadn’t pushed for more severe retaliation against Matteo, he might not have survived their previous encounters to become such a tough enemy now.

Robbie was the first to respond.

“Harlee, you don’t need to apologize to us. We all knew what we were getting into. If there’s any blame, it’s shared among us all.”

Patrick quickly chimed in, “Indeed, how could we point fingers at you? We’re the ones who failed to monitor Matteo closely. If there’s any fault, it lies with me.”

“And with me too…” Patrick’s admission prompted others to chime in, but Harlee cut them off.

“Enough! We’ll address this later.”

Just then, Tonya stepped forward, saying, “Harlee, I haven’t had the chance to tell you yet. No reinforcements are coming. There are only the seven of us.”
