Then Ben saw a young woman in a pink pajama standing inside the door, blinking her sleepy eyes at him, clearly just having woken up.For a moment, Ben felt his heart melt under Harriet’s charm before him.Harriet tilted her head adorably and asked in a daze, "Ben, are you... here to see Delbert?"Ben nodded quickly and was about to explain his purpose when he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from the kitchen, "Is Ben here?"Was that Delbert's voice?At the sound of Delbert's voice, Ben's pupils constricted and he froze on the spot.Not because Delbert could recognize him right away, but because there was also the sound of cooking mixed in with Delbert calling his name!And both sounds were coming from the kitchen...Could it be that Delbert was cooking right now?Ben found it hard to imagine what the usually aloof Delbert would look like wearing an apron and cooking.This wasn't just shocking. It was absolutely sensational!Ben tentatively walked into the villa and loo
Having received the response, Ben prepared to say goodbye and return to Meawood City. As soon as Ben left, Harriet eagerly sat at the dining table, eyes gleaming as she looked at the food that Delbert had just cooked. When Delbert saw Harriet's impatient appearance, his serious expression from earlier disappeared, and his deep and beautiful eyes showed a hint of tenderness. He smiled lightly and asked, "Are you hungry?" Harriet nodded eagerly, "Yes!" She hadn't eaten anything since she woke up earlier. Once she smelt the aroma of the freshly cooked food, her stomach couldn't help but growl. Especially when she saw the plate of delicious food on the table, she couldn't help but salivate.Looking at the little glutton in front of him, Delbert raised an eyebrow and had an idea. He picked up the food with his knife and seeing the eager look on Harriet's face as if waiting for him to feed her, his voice became hoarse, "Call me dear, and I'll feed you." "My dear!" Almost
After Miriam was injected with the Z-type potion, it would take half an hour before she could wake up. During this time, Harriet and Delbert stayed in the hospital room waiting.While waiting, Harriet took out her phone and sent a message to each of her brothers.Harriet: [Brothers, mom is about to wake up. Hurry to the hospital!]Upon receiving the news, the Bass brothers were thrilled and immediately dropped what they were doing, rushing to the hospital.The half-hour passed quickly. Harriet and Delbert saw Miriam slowly opening her eyes on the hospital bed."Mom, thank God, you're finally awake!"Harriet was overjoyed and rushed to hug her mother, tears streaming down uncontrollably.It had been a long time since she had cried, but this time she couldn't help it.Miriam slowly opened her blurry eyes, seemingly unclear about her surroundings, staring blankly at the ceiling without any expression."Mom, do you know how much I've missed you?"Harriet held Miriam tightly as te
After all the commotion that lasted until the afternoon and confirming that there were indeed no problems with Miriam's health, the brothers finally felt at ease.Levi took extra precautions by instructing the medical staff not to spread the news of Miriam's awakening just yet before they left with peace of mind.However, before they left, they insisted on taking Harriet with them.Delbert naturally didn’t agree until Henry shut him down with a single comment."We're having a sibling dinner tonight. What do you need to tag along for? Yvonne's seventh brother has returned. Our mother also has awakened, so of course we're going to celebrate. As for you, go cool your heels somewhere else."Henry had never been fond of Delbert, and his words now were particularly barbed."Alright Henry, don't always target Delbert," Harriet quickly intervened to smooth things over.She didn't understand why Henry harbored such hostility towards Delbert.Anyway, since her seventh brother had returne
Harriet raised her eyebrows slightly. "How is that possible? Alan, what are you talking about? No matter what you give me, I'll like it. How could I possibly be picky?" However, Alan's words piqued her curiosity. After all, Alan was a billionaire tycoon. What gift would he give her this time? If only he would give her the key to a gold mine!Harriet looked at Alan with curiosity, her voice filled with excitement that was hard to conceal. "Alan, can I open it and take a look?" Seeing Alan nod with a smile, Harriet couldn't contain her curiosity and immediately reached out to open the gift box in front of her. Inside the gift box lay a sapphire crown. The sapphire crown was made of flawless blue sapphires, a symbol of timeless elegance and regal beauty. The blue sapphires exuded a luminosity that danced with every movement.Seeing this sapphire crown, Harriet couldn't help but pick it up and gently caress it in her hand. It was the perfect combination of luxury and ex
There was even a brother who prepared a bunch of bodyguards to help Harriet beat people up and then carry them into the hospital? That was simply crazy! Fortunately, she had no grudges against Harriet. Judging by how much these brothers loved Harriet, if anyone became her enemy, he would probably be beaten into the hospital by her brothers before he even had a chance to act. In fact, even Harriet herself couldn't help but feel helpless as she watched her eight big brothers vying for favor with her. But as she looked at the eight gifts specially prepared for her by her eight brothers, her helplessness was instantly replaced by gratitude. The news of her mother's death shattered her idyllic childhood.The unbearable experience at the Munoz family's house erased her last longing for family affection. But now, her eight brothers were reviving her carefully concealed longing for family affection with meticulous care and unconditional love. Meeting these eight brothers was s
Immediately after, Delbert's warm hand tightly grasped Harriet's hand. He carefully guided her, but Harriet didn’t know where he was taking her. Harriet's ears had already turned red, and after a soft response, she let Delbert lead her by the hand and walked outside. In a short while, they reached the hotel's rooftop. Harriet was carefully assisted by Delbert out of the elevator and then stopped in the center of the rooftop. Her eyes were still covered, and everything was pitch black. Realizing that Delbert had stopped walking, she asked instinctively, "Delbert, can I take off the tie now?" "Hmm, let me do it for you." After pondering for a moment, Delbert moved behind Harriet and gently untied the tie that covered her eyes. The moment she saw what was in front of her eyes, Harriet was stunned. Not far away, fireworks soared into the night sky, bursting into brilliant sparks and adorning the empty night with countless stars. Amidst the dazzling lights and scattering
If it hadn't been for his quick reaction, his precious younger sister would probably have already run off with Delbert. Thinking of that, Henry was furious and directly rebuked, "Delbert, let go of Yvonne!"Caught by Henry in this scene, Harriet's fair cheeks instantly flushed red. She quickly let go of Delbert as if she had been electrocuted. She asked somewhat guiltily, "Henry, what are you doing here?"Seeing Harriet release Delbert, Henry felt a bit better, but he had no intention of letting Delbert off the hook. He snorted and took on the air of an elder chastising a younger one. "Delbert, what are you trying to do? Tonight is a gathering between siblings. But you just took Yvonne away without a word. We were all frantic looking for Yvonne, and here you are, being all lovey-dovey with her!"To think that Delbert dared to whisk away his precious sister right under his nose - that guy really had some nerve, Henry was livid. "You bullied Yvonne before. I haven't settled
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
Chapter 779Later, Delbert handed over the audio recordings of Sadie and Felipe's conspiracy, as well as the evidence of Sadie's attempt to embezzle assets from the Carlson Group, to the police.The police immediately began the trial of Sadie and Felipe. In the end, the court sentenced them to eight years in prison.Excited about the news, Harriet led Delbert to see Miriam.Seeing her innocent look, Delbert wanted to embrace her and protect her forever.Miriam saw Harriet's happy face and asked, "What's going on? 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
Chapter 778Levi raised his glass to congratulate them. "Yvonne, Delbert, I wish you happiness forever.""Me too," Arthur said.The others followed suit. 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
Chapter 776Delbert handed Saide over to the police and left without hesitation.Sadie bit her lip, her eyes glistening with tears. 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
