Chapter 1184: "In our house, that's how guests are treated!" Rhys shot Jonathan a cold look and dragged Harlee away faster. Jonathan stared after them, bewildered.
He wondered how Rhys, who was raised with such noble and proper manners, could say something like that.
He found it...
It was hard to believe the boy in front of him was really the Rhys whose memories stopped at twelve years old, especially since Rhys had just been so openly hostile toward another man in the presence of a woman.

During a mission where Harlee had collaborated with Interpol, Jonathan had confessed his dislike for shrimp.
At that time, Harlee and Jonathan had clashed over a case, neitherm willing to back down, and even Tonya couldn't mediate.
Jonathan had tried to force Harlee into compromising, but in the end, it was he who was forced to eat the shrimp as a way of submission. "You're still bringing that up! That shrimp nearly madelose my dinner the night before.
Everyone at Interpol thought I was dying because I couldn't keep m anything down, Jonathan muttered, clearly annoyed. mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
