Chapter 176With the plan in mind, Nora swiftly called the man in black."Before handling Harriet, find me medicine in Agral City. It's colorless, tasteless, and can make even the most virtuous woman willingly seek pleasure," she said."Okay! I'll dispatch someone immediately. Just deal with Harriet quickly," responded the man in black icily.He was about to end the call when Nora added, "I also need a remedy for my face. There's a potion developed by an unknown physician in Meawood City that regenerates cells—the Z-type potion.""Not part of the plan against Harriet, is it?" questioned the man in black.Nora had her reply ready. "If my face doesn't improve, how can I draw Harriet out?"The man in black hummed in consent and hung up the phone.The ward fell back into silence, as if nothing had transpired.However, the fear previously etched on Nora's face had vanished. Now her eyes were filled with hatred, glinting with coldness.With the medicine she had, Nora was confident
Chapter 177Despite the Morton Group's outward harmony, there was a hidden turmoil and power struggle behind the scenes. Each director harbored their own ulterior motives, hoping for a change in the leadership.Lula, born into an ordinary family, had a single ambition: to ascend the social ladder through a man. With her innocent and kind facade, coupled with her ability to act cute and clingy, she managed to soften Marc's heart and be cherished.However, their relationship could only remain like that. She could never win Marc's heart, and he had never touched her.Fortunately, after spending many years by Marc's side, she got to know numerous executives and gradually expanded her network.Upon learning about the situation within the Morton Group, she made a decisive move to buy back their shares, intending to support Vernon and become his partner."What should I do now?" Vernon asked, convinced by how well thought out Lula's plan was.He had a feeling that this time he might tru
Chapter 178Suddenly, Delbert opened his eyes and caught sight of Harriet trying to slip away. He reached out and pulled her back into his arms."Sleep a little longer," he murmured.Harriet's heart pounded, her cheeks burning."Delbert, I need to bathe and change clothes. I can't let others see me like this."Delbert looked down at her, a slight smile playing on his lips. "You were so vocal last night. Weren't you afraid of being overheard? Why so shy now?"His deep, seductive voice made Harriet's face turn crimson. "It's all your fault."Delbert buried his face in her neck and croaked, "Yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't have pushed you last night."Harriet grew even more bashful.She, too, was to blame for agreeing to his request."Stop making fun of me! It's annoying!" Harriet pouted.Delbert couldn't bear to tease her any further and could only apologize.He caressed her face, his voice soft. "Alright, it's my fault. Don't be angry.""That's more like it," Harriet said,
Chapter 179Unable to manage the organization herself, Harriet had appointed a proxy, which explained why Delbert had never discovered her identity.This proxy was Joe, a seemingly ordinary but exceptionally talented doctor.His decision to study medicine had been influenced by Harriet's mother, Miriam, who had saved his parents' lives when he was little."Miss Harriet, someone is requesting the Z-type potion from us," Joe informed her."Who is it?" Harriet asked in a low voice.Upon hearing the name from Joe, Harriet responded with a sneer and a curt "Refuse" before ending the call.A strange smile played on her lips after she hung up.Unexpectedly, Nora's face had suffered damage, and she had sent a mysterious individual to acquire the Z-type potion for treatment.It appeared that Nora had received assistance from this mysterious person to help Clifton overcome a tax evasion crisis and secure the position of general manager of the Munoz Group. Unfortunately, his plans had st
Chapter 180After Milton's birthday party, Delbert and Harriet only stayed there for two days before leaving.As Cory started the car, Delbert received a text message. His expression turned grim as he said to Harriet, "Something happened to Molly."Molly had suddenly fainted at home that day, which had frightened Marc. He quickly took her to the hospital.However, the doctors were helpless with her condition. In desperation, Marc had to call Selena.But after Selena saw Molly's condition, she remained silent.It seemed that the situation was very bad.Molly was now lying in the intensive care unit, weak and helpless on the hospital bed.Marc's anger subsided as he saw her like this.This woman had somehow entered his heart.Maybe it was before they got married, or maybe it was a long time ago when he saw her for the first time. Her smile was so brilliant back then.Now Marc only hoped that Molly would be safe and sound, and he would not pursue those lies anymore.Twenty min
Chapter 181Harriet breathed a sigh of relief.After Delbert left, Harriet waited for a while. Once she was sure he wouldn't return, she helped the still-unconscious Molly out of the hospital.For some reason, even though Molly had woken up, her nose kept bleeding and couldn't be stopped. She was also sweating profusely, which made Harriet worried and heartbroken."Hang in there, Molly. We'll get to our destination soon, and I'll cure you," Harriet said.Her intuition told her that Molly's condition was very serious and had been present for a long time. However, Molly had been hiding it and not telling anyone.In her past life, Harriet vividly remembered Molly's tragic ending. In this life, she was determined to heal Molly.She didn't want to lose a good friend."Please drive faster," Harriet said anxiously.The driver immediately accelerated, and after twenty minutes, he stopped the car at the entrance of an ancient villa in the western suburbs.Outside the villa gate was fa
Chapter 182"I will cure her," Harriet declared, resolved to heal Molly."Miss Harriet, don't worry. King has been researching new potions recently. There's bound to be a new potion that can cure your friend," Joe tried to comfort Harriet.In reality, he knew better than anyone that, despite the numerous researchers at King, Harriet held all the core formulas.In other words, the thousands of King members worldwide couldn't hold a candle to Harriet.If even Harriet couldn't cure Molly, then Molly was truly beyond help."By the way, Nora has expressed interest in purchasing our Z-type potion, regardless of the price," Joe said, pouring her a glass of water. "What price should we quote?"Harriet took a sip from the glass before setting it back down. "I don't want her money.""Then what do you want?" Joe asked."I want a 20% stake in the Munoz Group," Harriet responded calmly.A 20% stake was neither too much nor too little. If Nora truly wanted to use the Z-type potion to heal
Chapter 183"Molly is so silly. Despite her condition, she reminded me of not telling Marc the truth, saying that she was afraid he would worry," said Selena."Aren't you doing the same for Yuri?" Harriet raised an eyebrow."Yes. I'm also silly." Selena shook her head and laughed bitterly.She had never told Yuri that she had liked him for a long time. But with his unruly and free-spirited nature, he would never like her and fulfill their engagement.She could only take advantage of him when he was drunk and sleep with him, using the child to bind him.But she didn't expect that even after doing all this, he still refused to marry her and kept postponing the wedding.Until now, she was already heartbroken.After chatting with Selena for a while, Harriet called Cory to pick her up and take her back to the island.Upon her return to the island, Harriet expected Delbert to be asleep. To her surprise, not only was he awake, but he was also preparing dinner for her.The sounds of
