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 237Delbert came out of his memories and smiled.But then he thought of something, and his smile turned cold.That was not the end of the story.Afterward, Harriet disappeared, and she was nowhere to be found.She left without even saying goodbye, just vanishing from his life.From then on, Delbert's life returned to its original state.On the first day without her, he stood outside her house, steadfastly waiting, refusing to leave no matter who tried to persuade him.Even when his mother beat him with a stick, leaving him covered in bruises, he still insisted on staying.He wanted to wait for Harriet and his light to return.He waited until it rained heavily for three days and nights, causing him to develop a high fever. 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
Chapter 238To protect Harriet and to have her for himself, Delbert disregarded Harriet's wishes and went to ask Milton to let him marry Harriet.It was also the beginning of their mutual hardships and struggles from their past lives.But no matter how much Harriet disliked him or resisted him, he wanted to keep her by his side.Now that he had found her, he would protect and take care of her for the rest of his life.Even if he were to die, he would never allow her to leave him.Because he was afraid that she would fear him, Delbert had been secretly undergoing psychological therapy.He had been taking medication to suppress his violent emotions.He was still doing so in this life.But now, as he found Harriet injured, the medication could no longer suppress his rage.He wanted to lock her up and keep her by his side forever.That way, she wouldn't get hurt again. She wouldn't be harmed by those despicable people and would leave him again."Yvonne, if I lose you, I will di
Chapter 239Harriet tremblingly opened the letter, and the words written on it pulled her back into her memories.[Yvonne.]The strange nickname at the beginning left Harriet stunned.'Why would my mother call me Yvonne?' 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. Whenever she reached the most critical p
Then, Delbert fiercely branded his emblem upon her collarbone!"Harriet, you are mine. 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
Due to Harriet's declaration, "I only love Delbert in this lifetime," at that moment, Delbert felt that he would give his life for her, and it would be worth it.He could no longer control his obsession, and suddenly leaned down to lightly bite Harriet's earlobe."Harriet, you're doomed. You can't escape anymore. Even if you want to, I'll lock you up!"Whether you hate me or dislike me, in this lifetime, you can only stay by my side!"Delbert carried Harriet in his arms and left the warehouse for the underground garage where his car was parked. However, he remained with a gloomy expression throughout the journey, his beautiful eyes trembling slightly, lost in thought.Fearing that she would provoke his emotions and cause him to do something impulsive, Harriet dared not say anything further and could only allow him to hold her tightly.Cory had long been waiting in the driver's seat of the car. Delbert forcibly brought Harriet into the carriage. During this time, he never let
