The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 36 Encounter in the Woods
Chapter 36 Encounter in the WoodsThere were rumors about Delbert feeding mastiffs with people who had made mistakes, but Harriet thought it was nonsense. Delbert would never do such a thing.As she delved deeper into the woods, the thick foliage blocked out sunlight, leaving only a lush green.The road was littered with rocks and overgrown weeds, making it very difficult for her to walk."Delbert, I am here. Where are you?" Harriet called out eagerly, pushing aside dense leaves in search of Delbert.She could occasionally hear the roar of some animals amidst the woods.Harriet stood with bated breath, narrowing her eyes. The roar was getting closer.A silver needle slipped out of her cuff as she prepared to take action.Suddenly, a huge figure jumped down from the stone above and landed in front of her, stirring up leaves and dust.Harriet saw a pair of blue eyes and a scar on its face, which made the creature appear more ominous.The creature approached her, spitting saliva
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 37 A Mischievous Companion
Chapter 37 A Mischievous CompanionTucker licked her palm, and the ticklish sensation brought Harriet back to reality.Getting no resistance from Harriet, Tucker boldly extended his paws, as if eager to pounce on her again.Delbert checked Tucker, who then retracted its claws, whimpered, and stared at Harriet pitifully.Harriet was amused. 'So, this is the fearsome mastiff that the servants have described.'Delbert patted Tucker's head, unknitting his brows.He was surprised that Tucker hadn't forgotten Harriet even after more than ten years, just like him.Tucker had a temper, making it almost impossible for anyone other than Delbert and Harriet to approach it.Since Harriet left back then, it had bitten anyone who crossed its path.Therefore, ever since Delbert brought Tucker back from Agral City, he had kept it hidden in the mountains. The rumors of its ferocity, hyped by ill-intentioned people, spread throughout the villa."Why are you here? Don't you know this is a forbi
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 38 A Show
Chapter 38 A ShowHarriet's scream echoed through the air, causing Delbert to panic.He swiftly turned around, only to discover that Harriet had dropped her lunch box, while Tucker, the mischievous culprit, sniffed at the fallen egg with great excitement.Disgusted by the taste, the dog stuck out its tongue and stepped aside.Harriet groaned at its disrespect for her cooking skills.Delbert couldn't bring himself to blame the dog.After all, Tucker was like a son to him.While fierce at times, Tucker would never do anything to displease Harriet.Delbert fixed his gaze on Harriet, who looked at the broken lunchbox with a sad expression.Sensing his gaze, she looked up at him.Her nose tingled, and her eyelashes trembled as she blinked away the tears.Within seconds, she transformed into a pitiful figure, crying out loud.Tears streamed down her fair face, evoking sympathy.Harriet knew that by crying like this, Delbert would forget his anger and attend to her every need, ju
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 39 A Request
Chapter 39 A RequestAfter finally soothing Harriet, Delbert couldn't resist picking her up and leaving the mountains.Her tears threatened to flood the entire mountainside.Seeing Tucker wanting to follow, Delbert stopped it with a whistle.Tucker sat on the ground and hung its head in dejection.Unable to bear leaving it behind, Harriet tugged at Delbert's sleeve and pleaded, "Tucker is lonely. Can we take him home?""No!" Delbert rejected it flatly, worried that Tucker might cause trouble at home.Harriet crinkled her nose and looked at him with tearful eyes."You're bad. You promised me, but you didn't listen to me. Ahhh... I hate you."Harriet's loud sobs resumed, prompting Delbert to relent."Alright, we'll take him back."Harriet grinned with satisfaction, leaving Delbert feeling helpless.They left with Tucker and joined Opal before they returned to the villa.The sunlight cast long, diagonal shadows, creating a picturesque scene.At the villa's entrance, Harriet
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 40 Punishment
Chapter 40 PunishmentThe servant covered her forehead, trembling as she delivered the message. "Mr. Delbert has returned with Miss Harriet, and he demanded your presence.""Mr. Delbert is back? Just in time!" Colleen's face brightened.She had been worried that she wouldn't be able to deal with Harriet, but now, an unexpected opportunity had presented itself.She believed that once she leveraged her long-standing service and Milton's trust, Delbert would have to punish Harriet and make it right for her.Harriet was just a fool unfavored by Delbert anyway.Colleen got carried away with these thoughts and smiled triumphantly.'Harriet, just wait for your demise!' She thought viciously.Colleen got up and hurried to the hall.As soon as she arrived and laid eyes on Delbert, she pinched her thigh hard, forcing tears to well up in her eyes.She approached him and cried out, "Mr. Delbert, you have to uphold justice for me."However, her voice lured a colossal creature, causing it
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 41 The Truth
Chapter 41 The TruthSeveral bodyguards swiftly responded to Delbert's command and apprehended Colleen.Colleen, taken aback, questioned, "Mr. Delbert, what is the meaning of this?""Colleen, are you not aware that Harriet is going to be my wife, the sole hostess of this mansion? Even if she mistreats you, you should bear with it as a servant. How dare you complain to me?"Delbert spat and then commanded, "Get her out and cast her into the sea as fish food!"He disregarded Colleen's existence. The only person who mattered to him was Yvonne.The bodyguards promptly obeyed the order, seizing Colleen and making their way toward the exit.Colleen, panic-stricken, cried out in protest, "Mr. Delbert, no! I've served you for so many years. You can't be so heartless!"Miss Harriet slapped me and demanded I kowtow to her. All the servants witnessed it. If you blame me instead, you'll be scorned by everyone."Having resided with the Carlson family for so long and having been valued by M
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 42 Establishing Authority
Chapter 42 Establishing AuthorityUnfortunately for Colleen, Delbert had seen through her hypocrisy.Ignoring the terror-stricken housekeeper, he gently looked at Harriet."Harriet, how do you want her to meet her end?"Harriet blinked with feigned confusion, as if she couldn't comprehend what he meant."I don't want Colleen to die. I just want her to do her job and take good care of me!"Still holding grudges from her previous life, Harriet had no intention of letting Colleen go so easily.Aware of her intentions, Delbert squinted at Colleen.Colleen trembled in terror, sensing that her future life wouldn't be easy.Her intuition was confirmed when Delbert issued an order. "Colleen, did you hear what Harriet said? From today onwards, you will be responsible for her food, clothing, and daily needs. You will do everything yourself."If she is unsatisfied even in the slightest, the depths of the sea will be your grave.""Yes, Mr. Delbert!" Colleen nodded hastily, hoping for so

Chapter 43 The Unwelcome Guest"Harriet, I'm here to see you."Before the figure came into view, his voice echoed through the air.From a distance, Harriet caught the sound of Clifton's cheerful voice.His excitement, however, wasn't due to seeing his daughter. Rather, it stemmed from the hope of uncovering the whereabouts of the inheritance left by Harriet's mother.A fleeting shadow passed over Harriet's eyes as she suppressed a dark emotion.Clifton soon emerged before them.He was surprised by Delbert's presence and quickly plastered on a flattering smile."Mr. Delbert, you're home too. Well, I've brought some gifts for you guys, a token of my regard."Compared with his enthusiasm, Delbert remained aloof and indifferent.Clifton felt displeased by the cold reception but dared not show it openly.After all, the man before him was the overlord of Meawood City and the president of Carlson Group.Suddenly, a growling sound broke the tension.Delbert turned toward the sourc

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

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

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

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.
