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

    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

It was then that he gave up on the hopeless waiting.After recovering from his illness, he ate candy for several days, taking two pieces each day, one for himself and one for her.But Harriet still didn't come back.Gradually, Delbert began to acc

She wondered.[Yvonne, by the time you receive this letter, I believe you have grown up, and you should also realize that I didn't die.[Come to the Bass family, and you'll see me!]Harriet was shocked.'My mom didn't die? That's great!' She thought.So, everything Justin said was true. Miriam was really the daughter of the Bass family.'But how is that possible?' Harriet found it hard to believe.Ms. Bass was still lying in a coma in the hospital, and her daughter, Sadie Bass, had been recognized by the Bass family.Who was she, then?Was she Harriet or Yvonne?If Miriam didn't die, why didn't she come to find her all these years?Harriet's mind was filled with questions.She seemed to have lost a very important memory.Harriet continued to read the

    Chapter 240Harriet remembered that when she was little, her mother took her away from Meawood City and left Clifton.But she couldn't remember where her mother took her specifically.She just vaguely remembered that she had a great aptitude for medicine since she was little.She had almost memorized all the lost acupuncture techniques and medical treatments.Usually, a surgeon would practice for at least two to three years before performing surgery on a patient, but Harriet had already mastered the skillful needle techniques at the age of four or five. Her exceptional talent was likely inherited from the mysterious family behind Miriam.'Is it really the Bass family in Imperium?' She wondered.It seemed that she had to go to Imperium to solve all these mysteries.The medical book consisted of only a few pages, but it was enough to evoke her memories of medicine.However, there seemed to be a strange force suppressing her in her body.

You belong to me!""Ah, it hurts!"Harriet moaned in pain from his bite, her nose turning red, her eyes welling up with tears, looking pitiful."..."Hearing her cry of pain, Delbert held his breath for a moment. Although he still couldn’t control himself, the sound of Harriet crying out in pain made him subconsciously ease his bite.The pain on her collarbone was sharp, bringing Harriet back to her senses.Delbert's obsession this time was crazier and more intense than ever before, almost overpoweringly sweeping over her, threatening to consume her entirely, which was very alarming.Fearing for him, Harriet remembered what she had read in a medical book and reflexively pressed his temples!She thought that would calm him down temporarily, but what she didn't expect was that Delbert, who had been toughened by the cruel training of Milton since childhood, had long turned self-protection int

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.

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.

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
