But at this moment, seeing the injured Harriet, Nora felt an unusual surge of excitement.She couldn't care less about anything else. She just wanted Harriet dead."Harriet, go to hell!"With that, she raised the gun again and fired mercilessly in Harriet's direction.The last time Harriet was hit because she was unprepared, but she definitely wouldn't be hit by a second bullet.As Harriet dodged Nora’s bullet, her phone suddenly rang. It was Delbert calling.She had just pressed the answer button when Nora fired a third shot at her.As she dodged, the phone flew out of her hand.Delbert had intended to ask if Harriet had dinner since he had cooked at home. But as soon as the call connected, he heard gunshots through the phone.The realism of the gunfire made Delbert naturally dismiss the thought that Harriet was watching a movie."Harriet, what's happened? Where are you?" Delbert urgently asked.However, there was nothing but consecutive gunshots over the phone—no reply c
If it hadn't been for Harriet's urgency to jump off the cliff, Delbert would never have let the man in black off so easily. He immediately turned and chased after the direction where Harriet had fallen.At this moment, Harriet had rolled down the hillside and was already numb from her injuries. It felt similar to how she had felt in the previous life when she was tricked onto the operating table by Nora and Vernon.As dusk fell and night gradually took over, it seemed that this time there was no hope of survival for her. The only thing she couldn't accept was losing to Nora once again.‘Delbert, I hope you can be happy in the future, even without me!’As she was about to close her eyes, she suddenly saw a familiar handsome face. It seemed like an illusion—before she died, she could still see Delbert?Darkness enveloped her, but behind him was the brilliance of the setting sun....Meanwhile, Selena, gradually coming out of her drugged state, was shocked to find herself i
So when Marc, Molly, Sean, and others arrived after hearing the news, they saw three worried people standing guard at the emergency room door."How is Harriet?" Molly asked with a worried look on her face.Delbert remained silent, so Selena answered for him, "She was hit by a bullet and lost a lot of blood, but the bullet didn't hit any vital organs."The last sentence didn’t provide any comfort to anyone."Delbert, don't worry, I’ll definitely bring the culprit to justice!" Marc assured him."It's Nora. There is a mysterious organization behind her," Delbert said with a cold look in his eyes, as if he wished to torture and kill them on the spot."Delbert, I'll send my men to arrest them!" After glancing at Delbert's gloomy face and then at Molly, Marc said to her, "Molly, I'll leave this to you for now."Although he also wanted to see Harriet safely come out of the operating room with Delbert and Molly, he had more important things to do at the moment—finding the perpetrator.
In the operating room.When Joe, dressed in surgical attire, appeared, the doctors and nurses who were struggling with the surgery were all startled. Harriet's injuries this time were too severe. She kept bleeding, and her organs were injured, so they could barely stop it. But Harriet was Delbert’s wife, the future Mrs. Carlson of the Carlson Group. Delbert had just given orders that if they couldn't save Harriet, he would have everyone in the hospital buried with her."Who are you? Why are you here? Get out of here!" The chief surgeon saw Joe and immediately tried to drive him out."Mr. Delbert asked me to perform surgery on Miss Harriet!" Joe pointed to Harriet lying on the operating table and said in a calm tone.The chief surgeon frowned. How could Delbert let a stranger perform surgery on Harriet?"You're lying. Get out! This isn’t where you should be!" The chief surgeon tried to dismiss Joe.However, Joe completely ignored him and walked directly towards Harriet.
Seeing Selena's worried expression, Delbert seemed to guess what was happening. His chest surged violently, and his whole body seemed unsteady. Even his breathing became difficult.If anything bad happened to Harriet, he couldn't bear it at all!Yuri and Sean also entered with Delbert. After Sean comforted Delbert for a moment, his expression suddenly turned cold. He immediately walked up to Joe with a stern look on his face and questioned him sharply."Tell us, what did you give Harriet to eat?"Sean never trusted Joe and naturally assumed that he intended to harm Harriet.Joe narrowed his eyes behind his glasses and looked at the pale Harriet lying on the operating table, feeling uncertain in his heart.This was a medicine he had recently developed... Although it had undergone many tests, he..."Tell us!" Sean so angry that he was about to take action against him, but Joe deftly avoided him."This’s a medicine I personally developed," Joe said in a flat tone.He chose
Beep beep beep! The sound of the monitor echoed in everyone's ears in the operating room. Joe was quickly subdued by Sean, his arms were well restrained behind his back, unable to move. His eyelashes trembled slightly with immense fear engulfing him. How could this be! His medicine should be effective!"I want him dead!!!" Delbert's roar was so loud that it made everyone present involuntarily shiver. Joe's pupils dilated in shock.No way...Just as Sean was about to take Joe out for punishment,"Stop there!" The machine stopped its frenzied beeping noise, and Harriet, who had been lying on the operating table vomiting blood, woke up at some point. As soon as Delbert saw Harriet awake, he rushed up to her, staring at her with tears in eyes."Harriet... are you alright..." God knew how scared he was just now!"Delbert, I'm fine." Harriet gave him a reassuring look, her gaze falling on Joe beside her, who looked hit.Everyone followed her gaze and looked over,
Outside the window, light rain fell, and a cold wind blew open the white curtains. Delbert knelt on the ground, carefully and tenderly kissing the woman lying on the hospital bed. That continued for a long time, until Harriet woke up from a childhood nightmare, slowly opened her eyes, and regained consciousness. It took her about a minute to recognize the person in front of her, after which she immediately hugged Delbert, her body trembling with fear."Delbert, I had a terrible nightmare. I dreamed of so many scary things!"The fragmented scenes in the dream were like a gray film, stained with large patches of blood. She even dreamed of someone killing her mother in front of her. What was all that about?Delbert quickly embraced her, gently patting her shoulder and comforting her in a soft voice. "Harriet, don't be afraid, I'm here with you!"Only when she felt the warmth in Delbert's arms did Harriet gradually calm down. It seemed that all these mysteries could only be u
Realizing that she seemed to have mistaken the man, Harriet quickly let go of his hand. She said in a gentle and distant tone, with a hint of aloofness, "I'm sorry."After saying that, she hesitated, then continued to walk forward. But before she could take a few steps, the man's voice came faintly from behind her."Miss, it's fate that we meet. Why not stay and have a drink together? My treat."Hearing that, Harriet subconsciously turned her head and saw the man smiling at her. Although his expression was gentle, she felt it was strange.She looked at the man with a hint of wariness, trying to detect any signs of something amiss. However, no matter how she observed him, it seemed like the man was just being friendly and inviting, without any ulterior motives.But she still felt that something was off.Harriet forcefully suppressed the feeling of unease in her heart and responded with a cold and distant expression."I'm sorry, I have something to do. I gotta go."With tha
