Chapter 49 Unexpected Return"Sir, Kenny has returned from Keford!" Cory announced respectfully.Delbert stood before the expansive floor-to-ceiling window, gazing outside.Down in the back garden, Harriet was helping Tucker bathe.Tucker had been in the mountains for far too long, neglecting its appearance to the point that its white fur had turned gray.Unable to tolerate it, Harriet took Tucker to the garden after lunch, intent on giving it an open-air bath.The fierce-looking mastiff appeared like a gentle giant before Harriet, obedient to her every command.As she bathed Tucker, they both frolicked in the water, thoroughly enjoying themselves.Witnessing this heartwarming sight filled Delbert with a sense of completeness deep within his heart.Finally, he had his beloved girl.From now on, he vowed never to let her suffer, even if it meant facing insurmountable challenges."It's best to let him walk right into the trap," Delbert remarked, turning away from the scene and

Tucker, you've stained my skirt. Hmph, I'm angry now, and I'm going to teach you a lesson!"Harriet widened her eyes and puffed up her cheeks.She pretended to be fierce, clenching her fists as she chased after Tucker.Thinking its master was playing with him, Tucker darted away.They ran around Delbert in joyful chaos.After a while, when Harriet had enough fun, Delbert called her over and wipe

She wondered.She noticed Delbert's frown and the subtle displeasure that flashed across his face.Unable to snatch the phone from him, she cautiously spoke up."Delbert, my phone is ringing."Delbert stared intently at the caller ID, the name "Vernon" shining brightly.After a moment of silence, a dark smile curled on his lips."It's Vernon calling. Would you like to answer?"His eyes held a mysterious glint, leaving her unsure of his true intentions.He seemed to be hinting that if she dared to answer the call, he would smash the phone.'Is he jealous?' Harriet wondered but soon dismissed the ridiculous thought.She suppressed her complicated emotions and pouted at him, throwing the question back."What do you say?"Harriet, with her cute round face and fair complexion, looked at Delbert expectantly."Answer it as you like."

Chapter 53 Repeated CallsAt Delbert's villa, they had dinner together.Then Delbert headed to his study to handle some work, while Harriet skipped upstairs to rest. Lounging on the bed, she picked up her phone and was greeted with a flood of missed calls, all from Vernon.Vernon, who had once captivated her with his charming smile, was nothing but a despicable scumbag.She had been foolishly infatuated with him, believing he was the best person in the world and eagerly following his every whim.Even a fleeting smile from him would bring her immense joy.Little did she know, he had been using her all along, and his heart belonged to Nora.He merely enjoyed the feeling of being admired by Harriet.Now Harriet was no longer that fool who blindly followed him.Vernon must be driven mad by her repeated rejection of his calls.Harriet checked the text messages and read Vernon's words of concern.[Harriet, why didn't you answer my calls?

Chapter 54 The Mysterious ScarHarriet stood before the mirror, struggling to slip her frame into the beautiful dress.As she gazed at her reflection, her eyes suddenly fixated on a certain spot.There, just three inches below her shoulder, an inexplicable crescent-shaped scar caught her attention. It emitted a faint white glow under the light.It didn't appear to be a recent injury, nor did it seem accidental.She was certain she had never had a scar there before.Puzzled, Harriet furrowed her brow. Unable to comprehend it, she decided to revisit the matter after attending the banquet.After managing to finally squeeze herself into the dress, she discovered with dismay that the zipper at the back refused to budge.Delbert approached the cloakroom and peeked inside, finding Harriet puffing out her cheeks.She strained to reach the zipper on her back, only to find it beyond her grasp.Amused by her frustrated look, Delbert smiled and pushed the door open.Harriet heard the so

Chapter 55 Family Dinner"Delbert, what's wrong?"Harriet couldn't help but ask when she saw Delbert freezing."Nothing."Delbert shook his head and continued to zip up.The sound of the zipper echoed in the spacious cloakroom, and Harriet couldn't help but feel flustered, desperate to go out for some fresh air.But Delbert wouldn't let her go. He folded her into his arms and nibbled on her earlobe."Harriet, why do you blush so easily?" he whispered seductively.'Isn't it because of you?' Harriet groaned inwardly and then giggled."Delbert, get too close. It tickles!"Taking advantage of the moment, she pushed Delbert away and scurried downstairs like a little rabbit.It wasn't until she left the room that she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling alive again.Delbert watched her flee with amusement.Then, he followed suit, step by step.Milton's house had a history of over a hundred years.

"You guys are here. Come on and take your seats."Milton happily waved at them.Delbert nodded and held Harriet's hand tightly, leading her to the seat reserved by Milton.Then, he greeted the elders present one by one.Those people responded, but their expressions remained unchanged.Obviously, these people were dissatisfied with Milton suddenly handing over the Carlson Group to Delbert, who had always been ignored by everyone.However, out of respect for Milton, they couldn't show it openly and could only use cold expressions to convey their attitude.Kenny glanced at Delbert and smiled."Delbert, is this the wife you found for yourself?"But she's rumored to be a fool, ofte

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.

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.

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
