Chapter 1446 Chapter 1446: "Would you like to return to Remson Manor?" Rhys suggested, tenderly brushing a stray lock of hair from her face, his tone soothing.

"Besides, I'd rather be alone with you." She knew if she outright confessed her desire to reswork, Rhys might object. Sweet-talking him might increase her chances.
Rhys' expression brightened at her words.

"If you ask sweetly, I'll discuss moving back to Remson Manor with your parents." Harlee remained silent. She had anticipated their interactions escalating into something far more passionate and unchecked.
As Harlee wrapped her arms around his neck, preparing to seduce him, a voice disrupted the moment from beyond the door. "Rhys, what's your take on the Southwich property?" Brenton banged heavily on the door as he spoke.
Rhys mentally cursed Brenton's timing. If looks could kitty Brenton's interruption would have been fatal.
Frustration evident, Rhys stalked toward the door, his face a portrait of ё frustrated desire.
