The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 253
Delbert spoke up, his fingers involuntarily clenching tighter. Cory replied respectfully, "Ever since you, Mr. Delbert, officially took over the Carlson Group, Shawn has been very dissatisfied. He sent many people to closely monitor you, waiting to catch you at a fault!"As for Kenny, besides his recent trip to the island while you’re away, his recent movements are quite secretive. He seems to be up to something."Delbert's expression darkened slightly, "Keep a close watch on Shawn and Kenny. Don't let them stir up any trouble!""Sure, Mr. Delbert!"Cory was about to turn and leave when Delbert stopped him, "Wait a second."Cory turned back and asked, "Is there anything else, Mr. Delbert?"A frown appeared on Delbert’s handsome face, and the drawn-out sound of his breathing made Cory somewhat nervous. What was wrong?"Cory, do you... do you have a girlfriend? I need to ask you something."Hearing that, Cory broke out in a cold sweat. In just a second, he understood that Del

Opal immediately sensed trouble and was about to reach out to stop Molly, but her outstretched hand was blocked by a tall and upright figure. It was none other than Delbert. Opal, startled, quickly said, "Mr. Delbert, Miss Haynes refused to listen to me! She insists on going upstairs. I can't stop her!""It's fine. Let her go upstairs if she wants. If Harriet has someone to talk to, she won't always be thinking about leaving this place," Delbert waved his hand dismissively. He thought that if Molly kept Harriet company, it might cheer her up. He didn't like seeing Harriet always so wan and numb. It seemed that she lost all vitality overnight."Mr. Delbert, perhaps you should consider releasing..." Opal mustered the courage to speak up, but before the words "Miss Harriet" could leave her mouth, Delbert's cold glance frightened her into silence. Without delay, she went about her business.She felt powerless to do anything about saving Harriet as well.With Opal no longer bloc

Leaning on Molly's shoulder, Harriet fell asleep like that. It wasn't until her breathing evened out that Molly carefully lifted her onto the bed and tucked her in. As she moved, she suddenly heard a few crisp metallic clinks and frowned. As Molly slowly pulled back the blanket, the sight that met her eyes made her freeze, a chill spreading down her spine. Harriet's wrists and ankles were shackled with cold, gleaming chains, padded with velvet to prevent injury, but it was still a humiliating sight.Was this Delbert's doing? He was indeed ruthless! Just like his best friend, Marc! No wonder Harriet was in such pain. No girl could endure being treated like this by the man she loved!Molly was furious. After hurriedly closing the bedroom door, she turned and went downstairs. Then she saw Delbert sitting on the sofa in the lobby, smoking a cigarette with furrowed brows, his expression as cold as ice.Molly stormed down the stairs, confronting the seemingly indifferent Delbert

When Harriet woke up, she was alone in the room. If it weren't for the glass of water on the bedside table, she might have thought that Molly's visit was just a dream. She moved slightly, reaching to pull the blanket tighter, but something felt off. Harriet gently lifted the blanket and was momentarily stunned to see that the chains on her hands and feet were gone, replaced by a sense of bewilderment quickly followed by a misting of tears in her eyes. She knew it must have been Molly who saw the chains and argued with Delbert to have them removed.Just then, steady footsteps approached from outside the room. Before Harriet could pretend to be asleep again, the door was pushed open—it was Delbert. He didn’t expect Harriet to be awake. Upon opening the door, he saw her staring blankly at him, her eyes filled with unguarded bewilderment that quickly turned to clarity and wariness.A twinge of pain struck his heart. Was Harriet guarding herself against him?The room fell int

"It's okay. I'll wait for the day you're willing to forgive me. But in the meantime, you still can't go anywhere. It's too dangerous outside," Delbert said as he stood up, but Harriet showed no reaction. He could only sigh and then left the bedroom. He would give Harriet freedom, but not now. With Kenny’s family lurking outside, he feared for Harriet's safety.After the bedroom door was gently closed, Harriet lifted her gaze to the firmly shut door. She knew that Delbert’s words were sincere. But she really couldn't let go of her pride to forgive him just yet. She needed some time to cool off.Once Delbert was downstairs, he went straight to the kitchen. Opal was there, preparing ingredients for Harriet's dinner."Opal, prepare some light meals for Harriet tonight. Her body is weak. She can't eat anything too greasy or spicy," he instructed."Of course, Mr. Delbert!" Opal quickly responded.It seemed like Delbert and Harriet were on the path to reconciliation!In the

Harriet didn't rush to sleep after returning to her bedroom. She probably had slept too much during the day and wasn't very tired now. She took out her phone and found another message from Molly.Molly: [Glad you finally eat something! Be good, and I'll come to see you tomorrow.]Harriet: [Okay, waiting for you! When you come tomorrow, take me out for a walk, Delbert should listen to you.]After playing on her phone for a while longer, Harriet lay down.She didn't know when exactly she fell asleep. She drifted off into a deeper sleep as the night wore on.In the middle of the night, the bedroom door was quietly opened.Delbert tiptoed into the room, even the sound of the door closing was hushed.Looking at Harriet's peaceful sleeping face on the bed, he melted.It had been a long time since he had touched her. He couldn't resist leaning over to gently kiss Harriet's lips, still soft as he remembered.He deepened the kiss until the sleeping Harriet made a displeased sound, se

Not long after those men in black were sold to Happy Harpers in Imperium, they were killed by assassins from an international organization to prevent them from revealing the identity of their master. It was so fast that even Cory's people didn't have time to ask who was behind them. However, Delbert was very clear in his heart that the person who couldn’t be traced by Marc and the others must have a tremendous influence, or else they wouldn't have been able to move these people. That was why today, he must go with Harriet to protect her throughout the entire journey. Only when Harriet was within his sight could he be at ease. "Harriet, don't worry. Today, your task is to have fun and enjoy yourself. Marc and I are invisible." Harriet never expected that such words could come out of Delbert's mouth. But she just snorted and said nothing. Molly looked at the strange atmosphere between the two of them and sighed silently in her heart. "Molly, what do you think?" Harriet

When the car reached its destination, Harriet realized that the place Molly wanted to take her to today was actually an amusement park? Delbert was the first to get out of the car and opened the doors for Harriet and Molly. Marc went to park the car. Delbert originally planned to wait for Marc to come back before they all went to buy tickets together. But Molly smiled and said, "Mr. Delbert, please go ahead." Molly intended to send Delbert away.Delbert glanced at Harriet and saw her indifferent expression. She showed no sign of response. Helplessly, he could only go and buy four tickets by himself, and the queue seemed quite long. He, the president of the prestigious Carlson Group, had to queue up obediently in order to please his wife.After Delbert left, Molly immediately turned to look at Harriet, who felt bewildered under her gaze. "What's the matter, Molly? Why are you suddenly staring at me like that?" Molly said in a flat tone, "Actually, it’s Delbert who sugges

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

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

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

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.
