Chapter 620 Chapter 620: Harlee, dont talk like this.
You make it sound as if weve never shared a moment together, she murmured, pushing a thermos forward with a tentative hand.
Here, try this chicken soup Ive prepared just for you.
Its packed with nutrients, and Im sure youll be asking for seconds once youve had a taste.
Harlee took a step back, her stance wary and unyielding.
Laura reached out and grasped Harlees wrist, her face wearing the gentle expression of a grandmother coaxing her granddaughter to sip ssoup.

You actually have the gall to mention your chicken soup? Have you really forgotten the times you used to hit me? With a swift movement, Harlee wrenched her wrist free from Lauras grip, her gaze turning icy.
Indeed, there had been a twhen Harlee cherished the taste of Lauras chicken soup since it was the most delicious she had ever had.
During one illness when Harlee lay bedridden, Laura had cto her with a bowl of that very soup.
Believing it was a gesture of care, Harlee had gratefully consumed an additional bowl.
But after Harlee consumed only a couple of sips from the second serving, Laura had struck her, cursing and berating her, calling her worthless and forbidding her from having any more.
New updates in galnov????lsReeling from Harlees forceful rejection, Laura stumbled backward, her steps halting only when her back met the wall.
The sharpness in Harlees voice and the chill in her eyes were clear.
She hadnt forgotten that painful memory, not even after all these years.
Remembering Liams words, Laura managed to suppress her anger and spoke with feigned concern.
Harlee, your father and I are eager to make amends.
Whatever your heart desires, just nit, and it shall be yours, including the entirety of the Gill familys holdings.
Should you desire, once we are gone, all that the Gills have amassed will belong to you.
Harlees response was laced with a dismissive amusement, her striking eyes sparkling with scorn.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Gill familys assets? They wouldnt even suffice for my pocket change! A hint of tension crept onto Lauras face, her expression hardening just a bit.
She had arrived full of sincerity, not anticipating that the fortunes of the Gill Group would be so trivial in Harlees view.
Lauras gaze drifted unintentionally to the Sanderson family villa looming behind her.
Its magnificent architecture, expansive lands, and lavish decorations clearly overshadowed the Gill residence.
Yet, Laura doubted Harlee had any claim in this grandeur.
Everything in the Sanderson family would eventually be passed down to N Harlees five brothers.
Laura retorted, slightly pouting, True, the Sandersons may be richerthan the Gills, but they have five sons to provide for. What will they be able to leave you? Unlike them, the Gill family has only you.
Everything we own could be yours! Harlee regarded Laura with an incredulous stare.
Do you truly believe that one-sixth of the Sanderson fortune compares poorly to what the Gills possess? she questioned sharply.
