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
Her cheek touched Delbert's icy and thin lips, causing Harriet to shudder. She tried to struggle, but Delbert grabbed her arms and stared at her with a gloomy expression for a while. Then, he lowered his head and bit her rosy lips hard.This kiss was more intense and fiery than any before, almost consuming Harriet entirely."Ah!" Harriet's eyes widened suddenly.The next second, even though her hands were tightly restrained by the man, she desperately pushed against Delbert's strong body.But Harriet's resistance only seemed to further enrage Delbert.So, Delbert directly grabbed her hands and pressed her against the seat. He then firmly held the back of her head and kissed her even more deeply.In the midst of the entwined lips and teeth, Harriet felt both shy and angry. She had already confessed her true feelings, so why didn't Delbert believe her? Why was he treating her this way?Harriet had her pride. She wasn’t a tool for desire!Unfortunately, she was too weak to r
Delbert glanced at the still bleeding wound on her body, forcibly suppressing the desire in his heart."You're injured like this, and you still want me to let you go. Do you think that's possible?""I..." Harriet was at a loss for words.Seeing that she curled up in the corner and looked pitiful, Delbert melted. He no longer forced her but turned to look out the window, speaking in a softer tone."Be good, go home. I've called a doctor to treat your wounds.""But... I still need to save Justin!"Thinking of Justin, Harriet became extremely worried. He was shot because of her, but she didn't know how he was right now."Miss Harriet, is it the man you met at the café? He was rescued by the man who dressed like a magician we met at Holy Night that day," Cory said under Delbert's gaze.Harriet knew that the man was Henry. Justin had said that Henry was his brother, so she was relieved to know that Justin was safe. The atmosphere in the carriage suddenly quieted down. Alth
Harriet took the opportunity to freshen up in the bathroom. Looking at her disheveled self in the mirror, which bore the marks of being chased by the man in black, and remembering what Delbert had done to her earlier, Harriet was still very angry. She decided that she wouldn't talk to him voluntarily later. After cleaning herself up from head to toe, she realized that she had forgotten to bring a change of clothes in her rush to enter the bathroom. After finishing her shower, Harriet could only wrap herself in a bath towel, take a deep breath, and bravely step out of the bathroom.Delbert was standing outside the bathroom at this moment. He had just finished calling Yuri and Selena and saw the door open, so he turned to look. Harriet had just finished her shower. Her hair was dripping, and water was still trickling down her body. Crystal-clear droplets slid slowly down her rosy cheeks, fell onto her chest, and followed the shallow grooves before disappearing into the bath
Yuri's sudden move infuriated Harriet. She immediately grabbed the doorknob, wanting to leave the bathroom.But to her surprise, Yuri, that jerk, was blocking the door from outside, making it impossible for her to open it. In her desperation, she suddenly heard the sound of water trickling behind her. Turning around, she caught sight of a lean and tense male body intruding into her view. In shock, she turned back around, covering her face with her hands in shame and anger. She tried even more desperately to pull the door open, but it wouldn't budge.It caused her immense inner turmoil.After what felt like an eternity, the water finally stopped, suggesting the man had finished his bath. The next second, Delbert closed in on her. Harriet turned back in panic, only to be met with Delbert's steamy, honey-colored chest muscles, which were incredibly seductive. She quickly looked down but then saw the man's perfect inverted-triangle merman lines, sexy and enchanting enough to
