The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 417
It was pitch black in front of Harriet and she couldn't see anything at all."Huh? Did Molly and the others not come?" Harriet looked around in confusion at the pitch-black surroundings and muttered to herself.Could it be that everyone was standing her up on her birthday?Harriet tentatively called out, "Opal? Selena?"But apart from the chirping of insects from the surrounding bushes, there was no response."Opal? Selena?"She called out again but still got no answer.Harriet had always been bold, and such a scene only made her more curious.With curiosity driving her forward, Harriet turned on the flashlight on her phone and confirmed that no one had responded before resolutely walking towards the villa.What were Molly and the others up to? They had asked her to come back early today and said they wanted to celebrate her birthday, but now there was no sign of them.As she walked through the hall, Harriet felt depressed."Harriet, happy birthday!"All of a sudden, a voic

Inside the hall, it had been decorated as a romantic birthday party scene.Hanging from the crystal chandelier above were many blue starlight bundles, which, together with the lights, formed a brilliant blue starry river.Blue was Harriet's lucky color and her favorite color, and the starry river... was also her favorite.When Delbert set up the scene, he must have put his heart into it.But clearly, there was more to it than that. The scene was filled with pink heart-shaped balloons, bright roses, floating ribbons, making the hall seem like a dreamy fairy tale world.In the center of the hall hung a shining sign that read "Harriet, Happy Birthday.""Wow..."Harriet tightly covered her mouth, trying hard to control her emotions.Since her mother's death, she hadn't celebrated her own birthday for many years.She had almost forgotten what it felt like to have a birthday!At this moment, facing the birthday surprise prepared by Delbert himself, she felt a lump in her throat and

Yuri's next move was to lean in close with his scorching breath, gently brushing against Selena‘s ear.The cream from the corner of his lips stuck onto her ear, slowly melting, just as her heart did."Yuri, what are you doing? Have you lost your mind?"Selena's face blushed with embarrassment. She quickly pushed him away before frantically rubbing her ear, but only smeared the cream all over her hands. As a result, even her hands were scorching hot."Just a joke. Why so serious?"Yuri appeared completely serious, though even he didn't know what had come over him just then. He just suddenly felt like teasing Selena."A joke?" Selena felt ashamed for blushing, somewhat angrily glaring at him, "Yuri, you're dead meat!"The two of them quickly started chasing and play-fighting with each other. Even the atmosphere between Molly and Marc was at a teasingly ambiguous moment. It seemed that ever since Marc found out that it wasn't Molly who drugged him at Nora's birthday party, someth

The R&D department staffer was interrupted by Blake and stopped talking, then glanced at Blake and Harriet."Continue!"Harriet ignored the opinions just expressed by Blake and Jared.They were just two clowns in her eyes. She didn't take them seriously at all!"Harriet, if you decide everything in the company yourself, then what do we need these shareholders for? You might as well make decisions on your own. Why bother having us sit here just to watch you play?"Blake was infuriated by Harriet's attitude of completely disregarding him and ignoring him in front of so many people in the conference room.Jared was startled by Blake's sudden outburst.Coming to his senses, he also spoke up sarcastically, "Harriet, when your parents were still alive, they would show some respect to those present. You're just a girl. Are you trying to unseat all of us?"In just a few words, Jared positioned Harriet against the entire company.If Harriet insisted on continuing the meeting without co

Chapter 421Blake thought that Jerry would firmly stand by his side. After all, he had promised Jerry many benefits. But in the end, Jerry betrayed him.The people sitting below were all making their own plans."Let's have lunch first and continue the meeting in the afternoon," Harriet said, glancing at her watch.The R&D department had been presenting their plan for over two hours already.Although the details were well thought out, if the presentation went on for too long, even the shareholders wouldn't be able to pay attention anymore.It would be better to give them some time to rest.Afterward, the shareholders dispersed."Jerry, don't forget that we're on the same boat," Blake snapped once the door was closed.Harriet had disregarded his reputation and challenged him in front of so many shareholders.And Jerry, who had always been on his side, spoke up for Harriet.Blake couldn't bear it.Unfazed, Jerry turned around and sat in the VP's chair."Blake, you're too naïv

Chapter 422"There's no time like the present. Why don't we do it today and solve the problem for good?" Blake said, revealing his ambition."Is there a suitable opportunity?" Jerry asked, getting up to approach Blake.Even though there was no one else around, they were cautious when discussing secretive matters."There's a celebration party tonight, right?" Blake said.It would be crowded and chaotic, making accidents inevitable.The chairman of Munoz Group could be eliminated by her competitors.Jerry smiled knowingly and straightened up. "Leave this matter to me. Rest assured, from beginning to end, we are on the same side."Blake was more than happy with Jerry's initiative.Not long ago, he caused Harriet to have a car accident.Harriet was unscathed, and he was almost implicated. It would be better to entrust this matter to Jerry.Jerry was always reliable.The celebration party would become Harriet's funeral.She deserved such an end because she wanted to have the Mu

Chapter 423If they couldn't take the opportunity to get rid of Harriet, it would be difficult to do so when Delbert was protecting her."I don't know. I'll go find out," Jerry muttered, heading in Harriet's direction.Suddenly, something thudded on the floor, causing a round of screams.Harriet had just reached the doorway when she heard a loud noise. She turned around, only to see a horrible scene.Before Harriet could make out what was happening, a pair of warm hands covered her eyes.A low, hoarse voice sounded in her ears. "Don't look!"Harriet recognized Delbert's voice and felt relieved."I've seen it," she said.Delbert moved his hands away from her eyes."Who's down there?" Harriet asked.If she hadn't come out to find Delbert earlier, it would have been her standing there being attacked at this moment.Fortunately, Delbert was standing behind her, which gave her a little comfort."I don't know," Delbert said, sensing the quiver in her voice.He took her hands.

Chapter 424"Murder?" Delbert asked.He had been holding Harriet's hand since they left the hotel."There is not enough evidence yet. It is still under investigation. We cannot determine if it was a murder or an accident."Harriet closed her eyes, trying to calm her emotions."If I hadn't gone to find you, I would have been the victim. These vicious people!" Harriet smiled bitterly, squeezing Delbert's hand.Delbert received an important call from Imperium earlier. It involved highly confidential information, so he went out.But so many things happened in such a short time.Feeling scared, Delbert took her in his arms."Fortunately, it wasn't you," he croaked.Harriet couldn't see his face, but she let him hold her as long as he could feel reassured.She knew how upset he was.After a while, Delbert spoke. "Jerry is dead? Could it be related to Blake?"The first person he thought of was Blake. In the entire company, Blake hated Harriet the most and wanted to get rid of her

Chapter 783Delbert spoke like a spoiled child, and Harriet couldn't help but laugh. 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

Chapter 780When Marc arrived at the hospital, the medical team was already waiting at the entrance.Marc quickly briefed them on Molly's condition. "My wife suddenly fainted. 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

You look so happy.""I have some good news to tell you," Harriet replied.She let go of Delbert's hand and hugged Miriam. "Felipe and Sadie have been sentenced to eight years in prison. We won, and the Bass family is finally ours."Miriam took some time to overcome her shock. "Is it true?"She never thought they would win in the end.Harriet nodded vigorously, and Miriam confirmed the truth.She could finally return to the Bass family.She no longer cared about Fel

Delbert had to drink with them one after another.They wanted to test Delbert's endurance and love for Harriet.Delbert kept drinking until his face was flushed red.When the meal was over, Andy and the others went back to rest.Harriet and Delbert were left alone in the living room.Harriet used the tissue to wipe Delbert's face.Her gaze was filled with tenderness.Enchanted, Delbert grabbed her hand and put it on his chest."Harriet, I missed you so much," he said.His breath, mixed with the fragrance of wine, sprayed on Harriet's face.Then Delbert bent down to kiss her.They cuddled together, their eyes locked in a collision of longing.They kept holding each other, and Harriet bravely met his gaze.Delbert picked her up and carried her upstairs.The sound of rain drowned out many sounds, but it couldn't extingui

Chapter 777Soon, Delbert received a mail containing the documents.He skimmed them through and found that everything was fine at the company. 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

The police officers took her away for interrogation.Sadie couldn't accept the fact that Delbert had no feelings for her at all.In the interrogation room, she licked her wounds and refused to talk.Her heart was broken, and her face was covered with tears.Delbert couldn't wait to see Harriet.Harriet was working. To avoid disturbing her work, he decided to meet her at the family banquet in the evening."I'm working right now. Can you come over tonight?" Harriet said.She was eager to see Delbert, holding and smelling him."Oh, you don't want to see me?" Delbert teased her."How could that be? But I'm working. With you around, I can't focus, so you have to wait for a while," Harriet said while reviewing the documents.After Felipe's arrest, a lot of things at the company required her attention. She was up to her neck."I can help you," Delber

Chapter 775Felipe was on tenterhooks when he received a message from his trusted aide."Miss Bass has disappeared in Meawood City. We couldn't find her," the man reported."Keep searching and find her at all costs," Felipe urgently said.He used all his connections and even hired private detectives, but there was still no news.It wasn't until Sadie returned to Imperium that Felipe got the information. 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. He said nervously, "Yes, may I help you?"But the following words from the police dashed his last hope. "Based on the video sent by Miss Harriet
