Chapter 339The shareholder had thought the assistant was a nobody hired by Harriet. No matter how outstanding Darryl was, he couldn't pose any threat.However, Darryl's presentation struck him dumb.Given Darryl's charisma, he could be their CEO.And just now, the shareholder had just insulted his boss, Harriet.The shareholder was dejected.'Didn't Blake say that Harriet was ignorant and easy to bully?' He thought.But even her assistant was so capable. Harriet remained composed the entire time, and the shareholder was terrified.After giving his presentation, Delbert stepped down from the stage and stood behind Harriet.With Delbert supporting her, Harriet had nothing to fear.In the chairman's seat, she noticed their surprised gazes and felt proud.She looked at the shareholder and scoffed, "Mr. Cunningham, are you satisfied with my assistant's proposal? Do you need me to elaborate?""S-satisfied," stammered the shareholder.He had just mocked Harriet for not having en
Chapter 340Harriet looked up at Delbert's handsome face.In the sunlight, he looked dashing.The tenderness in his eyes caused Harriet's heart to skip a beat."What are you up to again?" she said."Not much. Just wanted to know if you're satisfied with my performance today," said Delbert seductively.Harriet's mind went blank, and her cheeks turned rosy."Um, I'm satisfied," she murmured."Time to get back to work. I'll go get the documents for you," Delbert said, brushing her nose with his finger.He smiled and left the office.But just as he took a few steps, a familiar voice came from behind. "Darryl."Delbert turned to see Blake standing not far away.Blake approached him with praise. "Your performance in the meeting impressed me. You truly are an exceptional talent."Delbert narrowed his eyes, knowing that Blake was up to no good.Blake didn't mind Delbert's arrogance and continued to butter him up. But before they could exchange a few more words, Blake couldn't wai
Chapter 341Blake had been in the business world for a long time, and he could tell that there was more to Delbert's words. When he realized that Delbert was mocking his ambition to climb the ladder, he was left speechless.He wanted to retort, but words failed him. He could only watch Delbert walk past him.As soon as Delbert disappeared from his sight, Blake angrily returned to his office.He thought about Delbert's mocking words and felt uneasy.Since the Munoz Group was now under his control, it should belong to him. What made Harriet think she could compete with him?After a busy day, it was finally time to go home.Delbert took Harriet home early.Most of the people in the company had already gone home, but Blake remained in his office, staring at the photos sent by his subordinates.The photos showed Darryl escorting Harriet out of the company.Blake finally understood why Darryl was so protective of Harriet. Even when Blake offered a high price to poach him, Darryl re
Chapter 342Delbert noticed Harriet's gaze and meaningfully smiled."Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?" he said."Why did you laugh so happily after checking out the message? Is something going on?" Harriet asked.Delbert revealed everything. "Well, Blake just sent me a message, telling me about your affair.""Me having an affair? How is that possible?" Harriet rolled her eyes.A smile filled Delbert's eyes. "And the person you had an affair with is me.""So, Blake not only didn't recognize you but also mistook you for a kept man?" Harriet laughed, realizing the situation. "I suddenly want to see the shocked expression on his face when he finds out your true identity.""Let's take our time!" Delbert rubbed her hair and gently smiled.After a pause, he suddenly remembered something and parked the car on the side of the road."Well, I have to deal with something at the Carlson Group tomorrow, so I can't accompany you. Let Cory go with you tomor
Chapter 343Harriet didn't expect Tara to work at Delbert's company. They would have to spend time together.Harriet pursed her lips, obviously displeased.Delbert keenly sensed her unhappiness, and indulgence tinged his voice. "Are you jealous? Because Tara is going to work at my company?""No, I'm not." Harriet denied it."Do you know who the most adorable person in the world is?" Delbert asked."Who?" Harriet said.Delbert teased her. "It's someone with a slender waist, long legs, and a tough mouth but a soft heart, just like you now."Harriet stared at him for a while before realizing his meaning."You are the one with a tough mouth," she retorted....Monica was discharged from the hospital. Delbert had sent Cory to pick her up while accompanying Harriet to the Munoz Group.Ever since Monica was almost buried alive by Nora last time, she had stayed in the hospital for half a month.During this period, only Trevor and Cory would visit her from time to time.Cory was r
Chapter 344At the Munoz Group.Trevor was leaning against the elevator wall with a cold expression on his face.He heard that Harriet had recently regained her intelligence and taken over the Munoz Group.It was because of her that Monica was kidnapped by Nora and almost lost her life.When Delbert was around, Trevor didn't dare cause trouble for Harriet. Now that Monica had been discharged from the hospital and Delbert was not with Harriet, he was determined to teach Harriet a lesson.After the elevator door slowly opened, Trevor went out and headed straight for Harriet's office.Harriet was reading documents while enjoying Cory's service.Suddenly, the door opened, and Trevor rushed in.He saw Harriet sitting in her chair and scowled.He recognized her as the girl who raced with him and beat him the other day."It's you!"Trevor narrowed his eyes, wondering why she was in Harriet's office."Cory, why is this woman here?" He asked."Mr. Trevor, let me introduce you. Thi
Chapter 345He intended to wait for Harriet to come and attack her in retaliation for Monica.To his surprise, Harriet returned with a broom in hand. She lifted it high and struck him mercilessly, causing him to wince in pain.Harriet wielded the broom like a weapon, striking Trevor without mercy. He cried out in agony as she beat him on the spot."What is wrong with you? Are you out of your mind? I'm Delbert's cousin. How dare you hit me?" Trevor snapped.But before he could finish his sentence, he was struck again, harder than before. 'This woman looks delicate, but why is she so strong?' Trevor thought to himself."What are you all standing around for? Drag this crazy woman away from me! Wait until Delbert's wife arrives. I'll make sure you regret it!" he spluttered.Trevor felt embarrassed as he saw more and more employees gather at the door, along with Cory's troubled face. In frustration, he shouted at them, even resorting to using the despised name of Harriet.But with
Chapter 346"Trevor, what did you just call me? Vulgar and uncultured? Is this your upbringing to judge others' attire from a biased perspective?" Harriet said, continuing to hit him.Trevor groaned in pain, but he wasn't one to yield so easily."Besides putting on airs, what else can you do? Everything you have is obtained through men, isn't it? If you didn't marry Delbert, you wouldn't even have had a chance to talk to me," Trevor scoffed.Like Monica, he grew up being spoiled and had never been hit by anyone before.Harriet's violent beating caused him to roar in anger."Relying on men? Humph!" Harriet sneered.She sought revenge on her own. Did she need to rely on men?"Or what? Women like you are only after rich men, aren't they? What's with the pretense here? Monica exposed your scheme, and you framed her like that, almost burying her alive."I won't let you off the hook. I'll make sure you pay the price," Trevor said aggressively.Harriet was angered. Sure enough, Trev
