Although Delbert didn't like his cousin's temperament, he still cared for her deeply."Cory, you should know that our family members cannot tolerate any grievances! If I find out that you dare to bully Monica..."Delbert narrowed his cold eyes and raised his eyebrow slightly. As for the consequences of bullying Monica, he didn't want to say much. After all, today's Vernon was the best example."Of course, I’ll never bully Monica!" Cory quickly assured him. Even if Cory didn't promise that, Delbert wasn't worried at all. With Monica's fiery temper, she wouldn't let herself be taken advantage of."Good, you may go." With a wave of his hand, Delbert let Cory leave.After that, Delbert also got up and prepared to go back to the bedroom to sleep.As soon as he left the study, Cory thought about going to see Monica. He wondered if she was feeling uncomfortable after drinking so much tonight. He wanted to take care of her."Cory, where are you going?" Seeing that Cory w
"Cory will stay here tonight."Delbert's eyes landed on Cory beside him.It was self-evident.He was afraid that Cory might do something to Monica.Harriet understood his intentions and could only accept it resignedly in the end.Afterward, Delbert added in a flat tone, "After all, an outsider in the house is hard to guard against. With you taking care of Monica, I won’t have worries."Cory was speechless.Delbert was talking about him!Harriet couldn't help but stifle a laugh. She didn't expect that Delbert would actually be concerned about that. It was really funny."Alright, I’ll take good care of Monica. You can rest assured and go to sleep."Of course, there was still the goodnight kiss every night, and Harriet remembered it well.She beckoned Delbert over, and he leaned in with his face.Harriet took the opportunity to lightly kiss his cheek.Cory was startled.That was too much!Clearly, he wasn’t single any longer, but he still felt envious when they showed off a
Harriet rolled her eyes, "Monica, what are you thinking? Do you think I'm willing to sleep with you? It's only because you got drunk last night that I was forced to stay and take care of you.""I got drunk because of you!" Monica pouted and said stubbornly, "Besides, I didn't ask you to take care of me!"Harriet felt very helpless. It seemed that the drunk Monica was more adorable, as she told the truth."Yeah, yeah, it's all my fault for insisting on taking care of you and enduring your behavior of snatching my quilt at night. By the way, your sleeping posture is really terrible!"Harriet retorted mercilessly.Come on! Let's hurt each other. She was good at it too!Looking at her disgusted expression, Monica tried hard to remember, but she had drunk too much and had fragmented memories. Memory search failed, but she didn't agree with Harriet's last words."Hey, Harriet, don't make wild accusations just because I got drunk last night. My sleeping posture is as beautiful as S
"Harriet, are you awake?""It's time for breakfast!"All of a sudden, a knock came from outside the door. Delbert, Cory, and Trevor were standing outside the door, calling for them to come out for breakfast.Hearing such a commotion from inside the room, Delbert was somewhat worried, thinking that something might be wrong. As soon as he pushed the door open, he only saw Harriet and Monica pulling each other's hair and refusing to let go. "Harriet, Monica, you two... are really energetic early in the morning..." Al of them were surprised by the scene. Trevor couldn't help but comment with a smile on his face."Harriet, let me go first!" Monica also felt embarrassed. "I won't!" "I'll count to three. We'll let go together!" They both counted together, but in the end, neither of them let go. Was that the tacit understanding between women?The three grown-up men were all stunned. In the end, it was Delbert who coldly spoke up, and the two finally stopped fighting. W
"I certainly want revenge, but look at me now. My hand is crippled. How can I deal with them?"At this point, Vernon's face was full of ferocity.But invisibly, he was obviously no longer blaming Lula, because compared to that, seeking revenge against Harriet and Delbert was his most urgent matter at the moment."Even if your hand is crippled, it can be healed. Vernon, with me here, we can deal with them together, alright?"Lula coaxed persuasively.After a moment of silence, Vernon nodded."I was too kind before. I spared Harriet's life. If I had known today, I shouldn't have been soft and let Harriet show off in front of me!"Vernon's eyes were bloodshot. He never wanted his self-esteem to be trampled on again.Anyway, he had nothing left now. He was willing to die together with Delbert and Harriet."What do you want to do?""I swear not to live if this revenge isn’t avenged!"For the first time, Lula saw in Vernon's eyes not only desire but also overwhelming hatred.Her
When Harriet saw the Twitter post with Vernon and Lula's photo, she looked mad too.Curious Cory also went to ask Monica about it.Monica replied angrily, "It's Vernon and Lula again. They are together now and even posted an official announcement on Twitter!"Monica's eyes were about to pop out. "You showed me this during dinner and it ruined my appetite."Trevor also cursed, "Most of the comments under this Twitter post are criticizing them. I don't know where they got the courage to sneak around together and even post it to disgust people. Have they no shame?"Trevor had never seen such shameless people before.In response, Delbert didn’t make any comments and continued to eat elegantly and calmly.As long as Harriet didn't care about Vernon's affairs, why should he care so much?In his eyes, Vernon was no different from a clown."Flies don't bite seamless eggs. These two are really a perfect match! I think Lula wants to be the second Nora!"Trevor continued to mutter, wi
Outside in the corridor, Cory informed Monica about Delbert's decision to send him to the subsidiary in Agral City as the general manager."Monica, Mr. Delbert gave me the opportunity to be the general manager of the subsidiary in Agral City for a year. I'm leaving for Agral City soon."Cory handed Monica the appointment letter given to him by Delbert.Upon hearing that they were going to be separated, Monica burst into tears."Monica, d-don't cry. I'll be back in a year."Seeing her tears, Cory panicked completely and hurriedly hugged her to comfort her.But the more he said that, the sadder Monica cried."Why does it have to be a whole year? Cory, I don't want to be apart from you. I'll go talk to Delbert. It's because of him that you're being forced! I don't want you to go to Agral City!"Monica said and wanted to go find Delbert to argue over that.Cory hurriedly stopped her. This time, it was his own decision."Monica, I volunteered. I want to become better, I want to ha
"Really?"In just an instant, Monica's tears stopped.Harriet was speechless.Why did she feel like she was being tricked?Afterward, the four of them went to the airport together.Delbert was giving Cory instructions about the specifics of the trip to Agral City, while Harriet and Monica were conspiring about something on the side, which Delbert paid no attention to.It was almost time to board the plane, so Cory wanted to say goodbye to Monica properly once more, but when he turned around, she was gone."Miss Harriet, where's Monica?" Cory asked Harriet, a bit worried.Harriet looked innocent and harmless, "I don't know. Maybe she couldn't bear to part with you and went off to cry somewhere."Cory didn't suspect anything."Then from now on, please take care of Monica for me."It was time to board the plane, and after speaking, Cory reluctantly headed to the boarding gate with his luggage.He was full of regret for not being able to say goodbye properly to Monica, but once
