WebNovelChapter 946: "Rhys..." Harlee pondered whether Rhys had accidentally ingested drugs or if someone had poisoned him. She had just cback from Gruinia the previous day, aware that Rhys had been with Anika for more than two years. It didn't make sense for him to have accidentally taken drugs. So, why was he in such pain now? And why was he here, instead of with Anika? Harlee's brow creased with worry. She looked down at Rhys, who was visibly suffering, and found herself unable to force him off the bed. She lifted her hand, her fingers tenderly massaging Rhys's temples and soothing his furrowed brow.
Rhys's face, previously twisted in pain, relaxed considerably under her touch.
This change made Harlee's heart flutter-it was eerily similar to Ritchie's reaction when he was poisoned. With this realization, Harlee quickly sent a detailed message to Tonya describing Rhys's condition before exhaling deeply.
Feeling thirsty, Harlee moved to get out of bed for swater.

Harlee grabbed Rhys's hands, attempting to free herself, but in the struggle, she found herself pinned under him.
Rhys's dark eyes were filled with deep longing, as if he wished to fuse with the woman beneath him permanently.
"Lee, don't leave me..." he begged, his voice carrying a note of desperation.
Harlee felt a twinge in her heart as the emotional walls she had constructed began to crumble once again.
"Rhys, what am I supposed to do with you..." she murmured to herself, lost in thought.
Your next adventure is at g al n ovels. con The voice Rhys had missed terribly over the past three years softly resonated in his ears, calming his tormented features as he slowly regained his composure.
His intense gaze fixed on Harlee with an almost obsessive quality.
After a moment, he rested his head against her neck, a mix of sorrow and relief evident.
"Lee, is this a dream?" The mention of a "dream" caught Harlee off guard, causing her hand, which had been pushing him away, to freeze in place. She, too, had clung to dreams for solace during many restless nights and understood the haunting, surreal sensation.

After a lengthy silence where reason finally overcher emotions, Harlee firmly pushed Rhys away, whispering, "Rhys, wake up. We have no connection anymore." She was determined to move forward. The words "no connection" echoed painfully in Rhys's ears, and suddenly, all was silent.
Rhys's attempt to seek warmth from her neck ceased abruptly, and he passed out in Harlee's arms before collapsing beside her.
His actions seemed orchestrated, executed swiftly and without hesitation.
Harlee inhaled deeply, decisively pushing Rhys away, then composed herself and left the room indifferently. In the lingering darkness, Rhys, who had seemed unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes.
"I thought I could enjoy just one more night...". Tears quietly streamed his face as he felt the lingering En down warmth Harlee left on the bed.
Anika was still tied up with commitments in Gruinia, and Rhys didn't want to miss any opportunity to be with Harlee, so he fabricated a reason to return to Mogluylia ahead of Anika.
