The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 229
Chapter 229She had to save him."Fool, why did you come back? I'm fine!" Justin held his abdominal wound and spoke intermittently.He tried to struggle, but Harriet refused to let go. She tightly held him while dodging the bullets.Her maneuvering was skillful.Justin had to admit that Harriet, whom they once protected, had grown up and no longer needed their protection.But they never expected that these black-clothed people would make another move.On the fifth floor of a building diagonally across from the café, a killer was hiding with a sniper rifle aimed in the direction of Harriet.A woman's instructions came through his earpiece.He nodded and answered in a cold voice, "Understood, Miss! I will make sure Harriet doesn't make it to Imperium!"After turning off his earpiece, he pulled the trigger, and the bullet darted toward Harriet.Justin, who had once been a mercenary, heard the sound. He narrowed his eyes and looked over.In an instant, he spotted the sniper on

Chapter 230The moment the gunshots rang out, Harriet was already prepared.She saw a hospital nearby. Her mother used to be treated there.She quickly dodged the bullets and ran into the hospital.She wanted to get to a safe place and call Delbert so that both she and Justin could be rescued. The black-clad men followed her in, causing chaos in the hospital.Harriet panicked and ran to the elevator, frantically pressing the button.The leader of the black-clad men narrowed his eyes.It seemed that Nora didn't lie to him. Harriet was indeed not a fool.If that was the case, he had to get rid of her.Her presence would pose threats to their boss.He raised his gun and fired several shots, hitting the elevator button.Harriet screamed in alarm and dodged to the side.When she went to press the elevator button again, she found that both elevator buttons were broken and the elevator could not run."Chase!" The leader of the black-clad men ordered, and his subordinates chased

Chapter 231The black-clad men blocking the exit chased after her with guns in their hands.Both sides were closing in on her, trapping Harriet in the middle.Cornered, she wondered what to do.Suddenly, an idea popped into her head.She still had her silver needles.Just as the two groups were about to join hands, Harriet lifted her hand and shot out several silver needles in each direction.Several of the men were hit, falling to the ground, which bought her some time to escape.Harriet ran in another direction toward a safe passage, using all her strength to open the door and flee.Unfortunately, her opponents were well-trained and quick in reaction.Some of them were annoyed by her actions and shot at her.Thanks to her quick reflexes, she didn't let the bullet hit her squarely.But they grazed her limbs, causing her burning pain.She touched her arms and legs, feeling blood.But she didn't have time to worry about these wounds. She turned left and right until she fin

Chapter 232Harriet, who thought she was about to perish, panicked and accidentally touched a certain part of the door lock.With a click, the door opened by itself.Before Harriet could react, she fell into the door.Then the door automatically closed and locked.The bullet was a second too slow, and it was blocked by the heavy gate, sparking a burst of fire.In the conference room of the Carlson Mansion.Delbert was listening to the terms proposed by a business partner, and he occasionally responded.The atmosphere in the room was oppressive, indicating that this was an important meeting.Just then, his phone suddenly rang. Delbert frowned, thinking it was Harriet feeling bored alone on the island and missing him, so he took it out for a look.Unexpectedly, it was a call from Monica.Earlier, before the meeting started, Monica had sent him a photo of Harriet secretly meeting with another man and called to slander Harriet.But he didn't believe it because he knew that the

Chapter 233"The meeting is adjourned! Call Marc and the others immediately. Have them search for Harriet," Delbert ordered."Yes, sir!" Cory responded, getting a picture of the situation.It was likely that Harriet was in trouble.Immediately afterward, Delbert walked away, leaving behind all the executives, shareholders, and business partners.As he reached the door, he suddenly stopped."Tell Marc and the others to eliminate any forces who want to harm Harriet," he ordered again.With that, he drove to the café mentioned by Monica.Anxious, he almost raced there, driving at a speed that seemed to defy gravity.But time seemed to not be on his side, as all the traffic lights were red along the way.Delbert didn't care about that anymore. Anxious about Harriet's safety, he ran the red light.He made sharp turns at every intersection, and what should have been nearly a half-hour drive took him only about ten minutes to arrive.When he arrived there, the café had already bec

Chapter 234Although the people in Imperium never concerned themselves with the affairs of Meawood City, Delbert was still worried.He couldn't let Harriet encounter any danger, so he wouldn't give up on any possible suspects.He had lost her once when they were little, and he would never let anything happen to her again.His eyes flickered as he recalled the past.No matter who was behind the scenes, he would let them pay the price.In the underground warehouse."Speak! Where is the woman you are chasing?" Delbert demanded, looking down at those black-clad men."I don't know! You can kill or torture us as you please!" said the leader indifferently."Alright, since you won't talk!" Delbert said.He was willing to do anything for Harriet's sake.He raised his eyes and smirked at the man."I know that killers like you aren't afraid of death, but I wonder if you're afraid of humiliation. For example, have you been to Happy Harpers?"I heard that once a woman was inside, she w
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 235
Chapter 235"Mr. Delbert, I've told you everything! Please don't sell me to Happy Harpers!" pleaded the leader.That would be the greatest insult to an assassin.He would never allow himself to end up in that kind of place.He got up and knelt at Delbert's feet, repeatedly begging for mercy."You want me to spare you? I can," said Delbert.The leader was overjoyed and was about to speak when Delbert suddenly gazed at him."Before you said that, I had considered sparing you. But since you dared to harm my woman, you must be prepared to pay a painful price!" he said."You..." the leader trembled, asking, "What do you want?""What do you think?" Delbert asked back, kicking the leader.A squeal resounded through the warehouse.The leader convulsed a few times and fainted.Delbert slowly retracted his foot and said coldly, "Sell him to Happy Harpers and let him serve customers starting today. I want him to suffer a fate worse than death.""Eh..." One of the subordinates hesitat

Chapter 236This paranoid, irritable, and possessive side was the truest version of Delbert.He had only shown it once in front of Harriet. It was when he impulsively wanted to keep her, but then he was afraid of scaring her, so he hid that terrifying side of himself.But now he wanted to imprison Harriet and prevent her from any harm.In fact, Delbert had a very serious mental illness.He had been subjected to torture and abuse from his parents since childhood.It started with his father and later with his mother.His mother, who had a strong desire for control, even secretly took him away from the Carlson family.They arrived in Agral City, where he and Harriet met.However, Harriet forgot.She forgot everything from her childhood, including the memories they had shared.She even forgot that she was once the only light in his dark life.Little Harriet used to live in a small house next door to Delbert's.At that time, she was not called Harriet, but Yvonne.She was only

Chapter 783Delbert spoke like a spoiled child, and Harriet couldn't help but laugh. She felt that Delbert was acting strangely.After holding her for a while, Delbert led her to walk outside."Let's go!" he said eagerly.It made Harriet feel even more puzzled.Before long, they arrived at a nearby amusement park.After getting out of the car, Harriet noticed that the scenery at the amusement park was beautiful."The Ferris wheels!" Delbert smiled, leading her toward the Ferris wheel.Delbert bought two tickets, and they got on the Ferris wheel hand in hand.Throughout the ride, Delbert held Harriet's hand tightly, while his other hand secretly took out an engagement ring from his suit pocket.Harriet saw it and finally realized what was going on.It was a surprise that Delbert had prepared for her.Delbert went down on one knee and spoke solemnly, "Ms. Harriet Munoz, would you be willing to marry me?"His eyes shone eagerly. He was even more nervous than when Harriet marr

Chapter 782Marc wondered if Molly had developed depression at that time.Molly slowly sat up and said, "You were forced to marry me, so you must have been angry, right? I remember everything!"Marc held her hand and listened quietly.His heart was in turmoil, but he didn't know what to say.Molly didn't want to recall those things, but today she had to bring them all up."I bumped into Lula scheming against you and was forced to sleep with you. Then I married you. But would Lula let me off so easily?"Marc could guess what had happened, and he said, "It's all in the past. Don't dwell on it. I'm different from before. You can trust me and depend on me."Molly forced a smile and said, "You don't know. Because of your misunderstanding and torment, Lula had people insult and slander me. Those things eventually led to my psychological trauma, causing my depression. Do you understand now?"Marc looked at her pale face and felt a sting of guilt.It was his fault.He held Molly in

Chapter 781Molly intended to drape the blanket over Marc, but Marc woke up."You're awake. How are you feeling?" Marc said with concern, his eyes bloodshot.Molly shook her head. "I'm alright. Sorry to wake you up.""Well, the doctor told me that you had taken many antidepressants," Marc said in distress.Molly turned pale, not expecting the doctor to reveal her depression.The disease had been haunting her and reminding her of the unpleasant past.Molly met Marc's gaze and faltered. Her hands clutched the blanket, as she didn't know how to broach the topic."You're my wife. I have the right to know the truth," Marc said seriously.They had been together for so long, but he didn't know about this matter until an outsider told him.Molly bit her lip and shook her head. Unable to hold back, she cried out, "I'm sorry, Marc. I really..."Marc stood up and took her into his arms. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry. It's my fault. I shouldn't have rushed you. It's okay if you don

Chapter 780When Marc arrived at the hospital, the medical team was already waiting at the entrance.Marc quickly briefed them on Molly's condition. "My wife suddenly fainted. I'm not sure what's going on. Please help check on her." "Mr. Welch, please wait outside," the nurse said, intercepting him.Marc looked at the closed emergency room, and anxiety caused him to feel breathless.After a long time, the doctor came out, and Marc urgently asked, "How is she?""After a series of tests, we confirmed that Harriet has stomach cancer," the doctor said solemnly.Marc was struck dumb. Even his ears were buzzing."What?" He trembled."Her stomach has suffered significant damage, and she can't eat many things," the doctor explained, sighing at Marc's dejected look."But she's always been fine? Did you make a mistake in the examination?" Marc said, looking at the doctor incredulously.He had been with Molly for so long, but he hadn't heard of her stomach discomfort."I know the res

Chapter 779Later, Delbert handed over the audio recordings of Sadie and Felipe's conspiracy, as well as the evidence of Sadie's attempt to embezzle assets from the Carlson Group, to the police.The police immediately began the trial of Sadie and Felipe. In the end, the court sentenced them to eight years in prison.Excited about the news, Harriet led Delbert to see Miriam.Seeing her innocent look, Delbert wanted to embrace her and protect her forever.Miriam saw Harriet's happy face and asked, "What's going on? You look so happy.""I have some good news to tell you," Harriet replied.She let go of Delbert's hand and hugged Miriam. "Felipe and Sadie have been sentenced to eight years in prison. We won, and the Bass family is finally ours."Miriam took some time to overcome her shock. "Is it true?"She never thought they would win in the end.Harriet nodded vigorously, and Miriam confirmed the truth.She could finally return to the Bass family.She no longer cared about Fel

Chapter 778Levi raised his glass to congratulate them. "Yvonne, Delbert, I wish you happiness forever.""Me too," Arthur said.The others followed suit. Delbert had to drink with them one after another.They wanted to test Delbert's endurance and love for Harriet.Delbert kept drinking until his face was flushed red.When the meal was over, Andy and the others went back to rest.Harriet and Delbert were left alone in the living room.Harriet used the tissue to wipe Delbert's face.Her gaze was filled with tenderness.Enchanted, Delbert grabbed her hand and put it on his chest."Harriet, I missed you so much," he said.His breath, mixed with the fragrance of wine, sprayed on Harriet's face.Then Delbert bent down to kiss her.They cuddled together, their eyes locked in a collision of longing.They kept holding each other, and Harriet bravely met his gaze.Delbert picked her up and carried her upstairs.The sound of rain drowned out many sounds, but it couldn't extingui

Chapter 777Soon, Delbert received a mail containing the documents.He skimmed them through and found that everything was fine at the company. Ben was quite a good manager.Delbert was satisfied with his performance.But Ben remained nervous, even though he could tell Delbert's good mood."You've done very well!" Delbert praised.Relieved, Ben scratched his head and said, "Thank you, sir.""You've been with me for a long time. Do you think I should give you a raise?" Delbert said.In Ben's mind, his current salary and the benefits provided by the Carlson Group were quite good, but who would refuse more money?"Is it okay, sir?" he tentatively asked.Delbert fell silent. Ben shivered and quickly added, "No need. I think it's good enough.""No, you will get a raise," Delbert smiled, having learned to scare people from Harriet.Subconsciously, he had been affected by Harriet.Ben was overjoyed, wondering if it was Harriet's credit.In the evening, Harriet sent a message to D

Chapter 776Delbert handed Saide over to the police and left without hesitation.Sadie bit her lip, her eyes glistening with tears. The police officers took her away for interrogation.Sadie couldn't accept the fact that Delbert had no feelings for her at all.In the interrogation room, she licked her wounds and refused to talk.Her heart was broken, and her face was covered with tears.Delbert couldn't wait to see Harriet.Harriet was working. To avoid disturbing her work, he decided to meet her at the family banquet in the evening."I'm working right now. Can you come over tonight?" Harriet said.She was eager to see Delbert, holding and smelling him."Oh, you don't want to see me?" Delbert teased her."How could that be? But I'm working. With you around, I can't focus, so you have to wait for a while," Harriet said while reviewing the documents.After Felipe's arrest, a lot of things at the company required her attention. She was up to her neck."I can help you," Delber

Chapter 775Felipe was on tenterhooks when he received a message from his trusted aide."Miss Bass has disappeared in Meawood City. We couldn't find her," the man reported."Keep searching and find her at all costs," Felipe urgently said.He used all his connections and even hired private detectives, but there was still no news.It wasn't until Sadie returned to Imperium that Felipe got the information. To his surprise, Sadie had gone to Meawood City with Delbert.Although Delbert had lost his memory, Felipe couldn't feel reassured. He decided to temporarily leave Imperium and lay low for a while.He packed up his belongings and planned to escape abroad.Just as he was transferring his assets at home, the police suddenly came to his door."Hello, are you Mr. Felipe Bass?" they said.Felipe didn't expect the police to act so quickly. He said nervously, "Yes, may I help you?"But the following words from the police dashed his last hope. "Based on the video sent by Miss Harriet
