Chapter 1107: "Shall we go?" Rhys kept his eyes on her, his expression unchanged, though his stance seemed to relax slightly.
He was clearly still hesitating, but something within him had shifted.
After a long pause, Rhys' stiff lips parted as though he was about to speak, but suddenly, his vision darkened, and the world around him spun.

"Rhys!" Harlee instinctively reached out to support him, but she didn't apply enough force, and they both tumbled to the ground.
The men in black, who had been lurking in the shadows, immediately emerged.
"Harlee." Harlee shielded Rhys' body and addressed her men, "Get him back to the villa as quickly as possible." "Yes."

Thankfully, Harlee had found her way out of the confusion on her own and no longer felt the need to rush Rhys' recovery.
Tonya placed her hand gently on Harlee's shoulder and said, "I've been working on something new in the lab. It seems Rhys' memory might stay locked at a certain point until something triggers him to remember everything." "Understood." Harlee nodded slightly, her face no longer burdened.

Tonya quickly added, "Take him to the room. I need to assess his condition first."
In the arid climate of Asmain, the villa's courtyard had nearly dried but by sundown.
Standing quietly by the door, Christopher peered through a narrow gap, observing the bedroom. Rhys lay sprawled on the bed, dressed in sleepwear.
His brow was deeply furrowed, and his expression was distant, lost in his own thoughts, It was O.co unmistakable-the.com" slook he wore whenever scheming to manipulate others. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
