Chapter 448Delbert was delighted by Harriet's fierce protection.Yuri saw it and got goosebumps.There they came again.Marco was enraged, but he could find no words to refute Harriet.He was aware of his strength. How could he compare to Delbert, the president of Carlson Group?Moreover, Star Entertainment had suffered a heavy blow. Now he couldn't even match Harriet.Marco had to swallow his pride and remain silent."You're only borrowing someone else's power to bully people. Let's see what will happen to you once you're out of power," Lynda shot back, unable to bear it. "Have you forgotten that you used to be a fool laughed at by everyone, and Mr. Carlson used to be neglected?"Lynda thought that her words were harsh enough to prick Harriet's heart.But Harriet only snorted in response.Delbert enjoyed the feeling of being protected and watched their confrontation instead of intervening.Harriet wouldn't be bullied by a fool."So what if I bully people with my power? I
Chapter 449Lynda stiffened at Harriet's words, realizing that she had been fooled.Blake was furious and disappointed. 'Why do I have such a foolish daughter?'"Dad, Harriet bullied me. You should teach her a lesson for me," Lynda said, seeking Blake's help.But Blake slapped her with all his strength.Lynda was caught off guard and almost fell. Luckily, Marco caught her in time.Lynda covered her cheek and looked incredulously at Blake. Tears welled up in her eyes.From childhood to adulthood, she had been pampered by Blake, but he hit her today."Why? You've never hit me before!" Lynda questioned him."You fool! How dare you steal things behind my back? I have to teach you a lesson!" Blake snapped."I didn't." Lynda continued to deny it.She glared at Harriet and said, "You're slandering me."Harriet smiled, revealing her dimples. "Whether it's slander or not, we'll see when the court summons arrives."Lynda saw Harriet's mocking smile and lost her mind.She rushed for
Chapter 450"Delbert, Yuri, let's go," Harriet said, ignoring those petty people.She held Delbert's hand and left.Yuri followed behind them.The onlookers sensibly dispersed.And so, the engagement ceremony ended abruptly.Blake watched with resentment as Harriet and Delbert walked away.He was determined to get back at them for the humiliation that day.After thinking for a moment, he approached Marco and tried to sound amicable. "Marco, now that you and Lynda are engaged, we will be family. Why don't we join hands to deal with the Carlson Group and the Munoz Group?"But Marco didn't buy it at all. "Blake, although I'm engaged to Lynda, it doesn't mean I have to cooperate with you."His company was already on the verge of collapse. If he collaborated with Blake, Harriet and Delbert would make sure he went broke.He decided to bide his time rather than court death with Blake."What do you mean?" Blake glared at him."I mean, I can't work with you. Give up on that idea!"
Chapter 451Before Marco could speak, Blake couldn't stand to see her daughter acting so foolishly any longer.He pulled her away and reprimanded, "He doesn't want to marry you anymore, so why are you clinging to him like this? You're embarrassing yourself and me.""Dad, it's not like that. Marco loves me. He's just temporarily confused because of Harriet, which is why he said those things. Please, give him some time to calm down. He will naturally consider working with you again," Lynda cried.She simply couldn't bring herself to believe that Marco didn't love her.While they were arguing, Marco slipped away....Harriet led Delbert and Yuri to a high-end café, where she signed a contract with Yuri."Let's wish for pleasant cooperation between us!" Yuri smiled, reaching out to shake hands with Harriet."Pleasant cooperation!" Harriet smiled.But before she could reach out, Delbert grabbed Yuri's hand."Aren't you busy today?" he said meaningfully.But Yuri failed to grasp
Chapter 452"Are you hungry? Let's go home. I'll cook for you," Delbert said, holding her hand."I'm in a good mood today, and I'll treat you to dinner," Harriet said.After taking care of Blake and Lynda, she needed to relax. She had been working tirelessly, and she wanted to indulge herself in pleasure."Alright!" Delbert agreed.If anyone who knew Delbert happened to pass by and see it, they would be surprised by how much he doted on someone.He gave Harriet all his tenderness.They left the café and ran into Blake."Harriet, I didn't expect to see you here," Blake said.Not blind, Harriet knew that he had been following her.She ignored him and led Delbert to leave.But Blake stopped her and said, "Harriet, I'm your uncle. Why do you give me such an attitude?""I'm giving you the same attitude as you gave me in the past. You wanted to kill me, so what kind of attitude do you expect from me?" Harriet sulked.Blake had been trying every means to kill her, and now he ment
Chapter 453Harriet gathered her thoughts and held onto Delbert's arm."Come with me! We're going to have a feast!" she said.They got into the car and left.Unbeknownst to them, a disheveled woman was hiding in the shadows and glaring.'Harriet, you ruined my love, my family, and everything I had. I won't let you off the hook, and I'll make you regret it!' The woman thought....The Munoz Group officially began collaborating with the Grayson Group.They jointly developed a new type of AI robot, which had entered the testing phase. Time was pressing, and Harriet worked tirelessly with the employees.Just when she finally had some free time, Delbert became busy.It was said that he had recently taken on a big project from overseas, and he had to work even on weekends.Harriet got up in the morning, but Delbert was nowhere to be seen. She asked Opal and learned that Delbert had gone to work without having breakfast.Harriet couldn't help but shake her head.Delbert really di
Chapter 454"Sorry, Mr. Delbert," Tara said, reluctantly leaving.Delbert paid no attention to her and continued with his work.However, before long, footsteps echoed again.Delbert looked up and saw Tara appear in the doorway."Anything else?" he asked.Tara walked in and placed things on the desk."I just asked the secretary. She said you didn't have breakfast, so I went downstairs to buy you some. They are all your favorites. Eat them while they are hot," Tara explained.Delbert looked at the food and furrowed his brow.He didn't need Tara's solicitude."I'm not hungry. Take them away," Delbert said.Tara didn't sense his displeasure, and she deluded herself into thinking that although Delbert was married, it didn't mean that she stood no chance.She believed that her continuous concern would help her win Delbert over. One day, he would realize that she was better than Harriet and more suitable to be his wife."You didn't have breakfast. How can you not be hungry? If yo
Chapter 455"Why would I blame you? I'm happy to have a servant take care of Delbert, but I don't think Delbert likes your breakfast," Harriet said indifferently, turning to look at Delbert.Fortunately, Delbert didn't eat the breakfast Tara brought. Otherwise, Harriet would have stricken Tara with her silver needles.Delbert was surprised by Harriet's sudden appearance.He didn't expect that when he was thinking about Harriet, she would show up with breakfast.And Harriet trusted him. There was no way he would eat something brought by another woman."Come on in!" Delbert beckoned to Harriet.But Harriet was not as enthusiastic as usual. She just glanced at him and slowly walked in.Her cold expression made him feel uneasy.The delicious food in front of Delbert could not be ignored. Anyway, he had given Tara a chance to get close to him. Harriet decided to make him feel neglected.Her cold expression made Delbert feel uneasy."Here is your breakfast. If you're busy, I'll le
