While Harley did give away her baby to her sister Delia for Lucy's own safety, that doesn't mean that Harley didn't do everything she could to be a part of her daughter's life while protecting her from the Joker. Even if it was as small an act as just making sure that Delia had enough money to keep a roof over her daughter's head.

But then the universe decided that it was high time for Harley to step it up.

During the Injustice 2 comic tie-in, Lucy is kidnapped by Ra's al Ghul and the Suicide Squad, and Harley is the only one able to come and save her. It's an intense story because, since this is an alternate universe that has proven time and again that it's unafraid to brutally murder anyone it pleases, you have no idea how it's gonna turn out.

Fortunately Harley manages to save Lucy, even getting to headbutt Ra's in his stupid face before leaving. While Lucy still calls her aunt Harley instead of - you know - Mom, they part on good terms, with Harley promising to visit more often now that Batman has a teleporter.
