Chapter 483

Author: Cheryl Rice
The girl's long hair cascaded down her shoulders, and her face was adorned with light makeup.

She was dressed in a slim-fitting shirt and a skirt, exposing her long and fair legs, which were very eye-catching.

The girl sat down next to Delbert in a familiar manner and looked at Liam with a gentle smile. "Liam, why is there an esteemed guest at home? Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Delbert didn't give the girl who suddenly sat beside him a glance. He simply moved slightly to one side, creating a considerable distance between them.

The girl didn't seem to feel awkward and sat with her legs crossed on the sofa, looking at Liam as if waiting for him to introduce her.

Liam felt somewhat helpless as he introduced her to Delbert. "Delbert, this is my sister, Lily."

Then he looked at Lily Lynch and patiently explained, "Lily, this’s Delbert. I’ve mentioned him to you many times. He has saved my life."

After giving a quick nod at Lily, Delbert continued to answer the question Liam had

    Arthur smiled, "Yvonne, don't you remember? You like these dishes ever since you were young.""Ever since I was young?" Harriet was a bit puzzled.She liked these dishes ever since she was young, but how did Delbert know? They had never met when they were young.Before Harriet could think about it in detail, the door of the villa was suddenly pushed open forcefully.From a distance, a familiar voice could be heard."Arthur, I knew you hid Yvonne in your house!"This voice...It was so familiar!Wasn't this the voice of Henry, whom she had met not long ago at Holy Night?So they really were brothers!Harriet was about to walk out of the dining room to meet Henry, but she saw Henry, ignoring the servants' obstruction, striding into the dining room.He walked directly in front of Arthur and grabbed his collar, angrily questioning, "Why did you hide Yvonne away? What do you want to do to her? Even if you’re my brother, if you dare to hurt Yvonne, I’ll never let you off!"Being

    Faced with Arthur's cold retort, Henry was momentarily speechless. He pointed at Arthur with an angry face but couldn't come up with a rebuttal.Meanwhile, Harriet, who witnessed the entire argument between the two brothers, frowned slightly. She had been prepared to mediate between them ever since she heard from Arthur about the discord among her eight brothers on the ship. However, she hadn't expected their relationship to have deteriorated to this extent. They were quick to quarrel at every trivial matter. They were acting like kids.Seeing that the two were still arguing, Harriet felt a headache coming on and quickly tried to mediate."Brothers, for my sake, can we stop quarreling? Can't we just let bygones be bygones?"Afterwards, she repeatedly made eye contact with Arthur.Arthur understood and immediately continued according to what Harriet had said. He humbly apologizing to Henry."Alright, it’s my fault. I shouldn't have brought Yvonne to Imperium without tell

    "Not at all!" Arthur responded almost instantly, "I won’t be affected by him!"Seeing Arthur like that, Harriet felt extremely helpless. Arthur was obviously mad! It was clear that he was very upset.Harriet sat next to Arthur and tried to comfort him, much like comforting a child."Arthur, you and Henry are brothers for more than twenty years. I can see that he has a quick temper. As the eldest brother, sometimes you need to be more magnanimous and give in to him. What's the point of always arguing like this?"Arthur brought her to Imperium because of their mother and the discord among the brothers. He needed her to come back and mediate the conflicts among them. The current situation was precisely what required her help in mediating.After hearing her words, Arthur also found them reasonable, and his expression indeed softened slightly.Seeing that, Harriet continued to bring out various reasons and tried to persuade Arthur.After a while, although Arthur's anger had s

    Delbert continued to ponder the clues about Harriet's disappearance, without giving a single glance to Lily. He coldly responded, "Sorry, I don't drink tea."Lily was startled. The atmosphere in the study became awkward, and Liam wanted to say something to ease the tension. He could see that Delbert had no interest in his sister. However, Lily continued to smile and bent down to place the tea in front of Delbert."Delbert, this’s the best tea in the city. You’ll definitely like it."After saying that, she intentionally sat next to Delbert, almost leaning into him."Oh, are you so sure that I’ll definitely like it?" Delbert avoided Lily's approach and asked coldly. He was obviously displeased.Just as Lily was about to lean on him, he suddenly stood up. Lily missed her mark, and her disheveled hair fell in front of her, making her look particularly embarrassed.She looked up and saw that Delbert had already walked to the door of the study. He exuded an aura of nobility

With a slight raise of her eyebrows and a charming yet pure smile on her lips, every move she made stirred the hearts of everyone present.Harriet paid no attention to the gazes of the crowd and walked straight ahead with Arthur and Henry in front of her."When d

    Was she really Harriet?After all, Justin has already appeared, and those people were probably all in Imperial now.But when Delbert's gaze once again turned to the place where the girl had passed, he only saw that she was gone.Did he see it wrong?Or was it an illusion?Delbert withdrew his gaze, and smirked at himself.These days, he felt he was possessed. Every time he closed his eyes, all he could see in his mind was Harriet's figure. Even in his dreams, he wanted to find Harriet as soon as possible.To his surprise, he even had illusions now."Delbert!"Right at this moment, Lily smiled and walked up to Delbert, looking very intimate with him, reaching out to take his arm.A look of disgust flashed in Delbert's eyes, then he quietly stepped back, letting Lily's gesture go empty.No matter how Lily tried to be close to him, his attitude towards Lily was always as cold as ever.And just now.Harriet was already taken by Arthur and Henry to the second floor of the banqu

It can mobilize all the wealth under my command."Now, this gem pendant belongs to you. Consider it as an apology for my abruptness during that night at Holy Night!""For me?" Harriet asked in surprise, lifting her head. When she saw Levi nodding with a smile, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

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.

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?
