Speaking of this, I couldn’t help but think about how Harlan and Zoe looked at each other so affectionately just now.

“What’s going on between you and Zoe?” I asked pointedly.
At the mention of Zoe, Harlan’s face suddenly turned bright red-even his ears were as red as tomatoes.
“Last time, when I got drunk at that bar, we ki*sed.”

“What? So the woman you ki*sed was Zoe?”
I had guessed that he must’ve gotten involved with a woman, but never in my wildest dreams would I have thought it was Zoe.
“Yeah. Harlan lowered his head dejectedly.
“But she refuses to admit it. She just occasionally invites me to practice sparring.”
Sighing, he ran his fingers through his hair in distress. “I don’t want to hurt Zoe, but at the same time, I don’t know how to get along with her.”
“I know what you mean. Zoe’s a short-tempered person who-“
Before I could finish my words, Harlan held up his hands and cut me off abruptly.
“No, that’s not what I meant.”
“Then what do you mean?”
Judging from Harlan’s reaction, it seemed that there was something deeper going on.
Harlan didn’t hide anything from me. He shrugged and admitted frankly,
“I feel bad for Zoe. She was abandoned by her parents when she was a child and she had no friends growing up, so she’s a little stubborn and violent. I’m afraid that I’ll hurt her even more.”
Debra’s POV:
It turned out that Harlan felt sorry for Zoe.
I smiled at him playfully and teased, “It seems you’ve met the one.”
However, Harlan refused to admit it. He shook his head stubbornly and said, “No, she’s the one who asked me out.”

“Then why didn’t you turn her down?” I asked with a knowing smile.
“Well… Because she’s a police officer! If I could spend more time with her, I might be able to find out their patrol schedule. And if things go south with Adam, this information will come in handy.”
My smile remained unchanged, but I didn’t say anything more.
No matter what he said, his expression had given him away already.
It was possible that he truly wanted to find out the patrol schedule, but it was also undeniable that he had feelings for Zoe.
