Chapter 329Harriet was touched by Delbert's affectionate words.'Does he know how sweet he is?' She thought.Harriet blushed, and Delbert stroked her hair."I have talked to Cory about it, and I have thought about it carefully," he said. "Go ahead and take over the Munoz Group."Harriet looked at him in surprise. "Really?""Yeah!" Delbert nodded solemnly.As long as either of them conceded, this matter would be perfectly solved.And it was better for him to concede.Besides, as Harriet said, the Munoz Group was founded by her mother, and taking over was her wish. He could not impose his will on her and prevent her from doing so.But Harriet became a little uncertain."Why did your attitude change so quickly? I was thinking that if you didn't agree, I would argue with you again.""It just happens naturally." He paused and continued, "I can't handle another fight.""If so, you should have agreed to my request earlier," Harriet grumbled with a smile."You're right! It's my
Chapter 330"Get changed first!" Delbert said.He went out of the bedroom and headed to the dressing room.He had to dress up properly too.Despite her doubt, Harriet complied.After changing her clothes, she went out of the bedroom and arrived at the dressing room."I'm ready!" she announced.She opened the door, only to see Delbert standing there in shorts. She quickly covered her face with her hands and turned away.Even though they were married, this scene was still too embarrassing.Delbert laughed at her coyness and put on his shirt. While buttoning it, he said, "Cory will take you somewhere later.""Where?" Harriet asked."The Munoz Group," Delbert replied. "Didn't you say that you were going to take over? Did you forget so soon?""I remember. I'll go right away!" Harriet nodded vigorously.After changing his clothes, Delbert took her downstairs.He was impressed by her beauty when she was wearing the blue suit.The slim-fitting dress showed off her well-proportio
Chapter 331"Harriet, is that you? It's been so long since we last met. I heard that you've fully recovered from your illness and are now going to take over the Munoz Group. We should catch up today," said Blake.Harriet was speechless for a moment.Blake walked toward her with quick steps, his face filled with excitement as he grabbed her hand.Harriet felt helpless.If Blake really missed her, as he claimed, why didn't he come to find her during all this time?She hadn't forgotten in her past life how dismissive he was toward her.Now that she had regained her sanity and was going to take over the Munoz Group, he suddenly acted like he cared about her.Wasn't it a bit too late?But since Blake wanted to pretend, she would play along.Harriet was dazed for a moment before tears welled up in her eyes.Her pitiful appearance immediately caught attention.Even Cory was surprised.'Ms. Harriet is such an actress. No wonder Mr. Delbert listens to her in every way.' He thought.
Chapter 332When Blake asked for permission to bring Harriet into the Munoz Group, all the executives nodded in agreement.Harriet was Delbert's wife, so even if Blake didn't want her to take over, he couldn't defy Delbert's order.Blake then led Harriet into the office building and took her to get familiar with the internal structure. Since there were corporate secrets involved, Cory couldn't follow along. Instead, he waited in the lounge.As soon as Cory left, the executives revealed their true colors, looking at Harriet with disdain.That had been expected by Harriet.Blake continued to pretend, kindly introducing the different areas and facilities to her.Harriet didn't rush to confront him. Instead, she followed behind him and looked around the company.The decoration was the same as in most ordinary companies. The office area was slightly smaller than that of an ordinary company, and the occupied areas were decorated with various antiques, trophies, and banners.It see
Chapter 333Harriet took out her phone and entered the office before looking down at the screen.It was a text message from Delbert.[I miss you. When you're done, let's have dinner together. I'll come pick you up.]The simple yet affectionate message brightened Harriet's mood a little.They had only been separated for less than an hour, and Delbert already missed her.She didn't expect him to be so clingy, aside from his possessiveness.Harriet tapped the screen of her phone and edited a reply.[Sure! See you later!]Harriet had just put down her phone when an executive deliberately tried to cause her trouble."Mrs. Carlson, the Munoz Group has always had strict discipline and does not allow employees to use their phones during working hours. Violators will be punished severely. As the daughter of the former CEO, you must be aware of this rule, right?" he said."Moreover, now that you are the new chairman, you should lead by example. What do you think you should do?"Harri
Chapter 334Harriet smiled sweetly and looked gratefully at Blake."Thank you, Blake!" she said.Since she had decided to deal with Blake, she had to make him slacken his vigilance. She needed him to think that he could easily control her so that she could get rid of him in one fell swoop."But..." she added, looking at the executive. "Mr. Reid, what did you just call me?"Her sudden question left him stunned. "Mrs. Carlson?""Mr. Reid, I need to remind you that I am the chairman appointed by Mr. Carlson," she scoffed. "Besides, I hold 30% of the shares, making me the largest shareholder. Even without his appointment, I am still the rightful owner of the Munoz Group."Are you calling me Mrs. Carlson on purpose to deny my identity? Or are you dissatisfied with Mr. Carlson's orders?"Her voice was not loud, but it was forceful.The room instantly fell into a dead silence.The blood drained from the executive's face.These two accusations could bring about his downfall.None o
Chapter 335Their actions seemed to have switched places.Delbert propped his head up and watched as Harriet's cheeks puffed up while eating. A smile formed on his face.Harriet sensed his gaze and curiously looked up at him. "Why are you looking at me? Aren't you going to eat yours?" she said."You are gorgeous!" Delbert said.He picked up a napkin and gently wiped the corner of her mouth.Harriet blushed, feeling the lingering warmth on her lips."You eat like a kitten. You are adorable!" he said with a magnetic voice.The romantic atmosphere continued until the end of the dinner.After leaving the restaurant, they found themselves on a bustling market street.Delbert didn't rush to take Harriet back to the island. Instead, he led her to stroll down the street, enjoying the night view.Unconsciously, they held each other's hands.After a while, a girl about ten years old ran toward them.She wore a flower crown on her head and a pink and white dress, carrying a basket.
Chapter 336Harriet held the roses, too shy to speak.She silently followed behind Delbert until his voice stopped echoing in her mind.But she started to think about the company.Blake was now her biggest threat. His power was deeply rooted within the Munoz Group. It was difficult to remove it in a short time.Dealing with those petty people gave her headaches.She sighed under her breath."What's wrong?" Delbert asked upon hearing it.Harriet raised her head and saw his worried face.As if he could read her mind, he continued to ask, "Is it about the Munoz Group?"Harriet didn't hide anything. Instead, she told him everything that had happened at the company.Delbert heard her out and fell into deep thought.If it were any other time, he would have given his order to expel Blake from the Munoz Group and even from Meawood City.But after the argument they had last time, he had learned to respect Harriet's wishes. He wouldn't do anything against her will.So, he just chuc
