Chapter 577Their plan against Harriet was overheard by Lily and inadvertently leaked to Harriet, causing the current situation. Despite his weak character, Wendell frowned at Liam.Unfazed, Liam smiled and said, "Mr. Johnson, I came to ask you something. You've suffered from Harriet's hands. Can you really swallow your pride?"Wendell tensed up but continued to play dumb. "What do you mean, Mr. Lynch? I don't understand."Liam chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry, Mr. Johnson. I hate Harriet just as much as you do. I happen to have a plan that I'd like to discuss with you."A vicious look flashed in his eyes. "This plan will help you vent your anger."He turned to look at Wendell's assistant.The assistant, having followed Wendell for years, understood the situation. Liam wanted him to leave.After receiving Wendell's order, he left the ward and closed the door.Liam turned his gaze back to Wendell and asked, "Mr. Johnson, do you still remember the drugs you brought wi
Chapter 578According to the girl, Harriet was the only victim who dared stand out to confront Wendell.Because of that, many people joined Harriet's company.The receptionist received many bouquets, with notes attached thanking Harriet for speaking out for those girls exploited by Wendell.There was even a banner.It seemed that the last incident had a positive impact on her reputation.Harriet looked at Carol and chuckled, "Why did you suddenly come to see me, holding a cup of coffee?"Carol handed the coffee to her and blushed. "Ms. Bass, I'm very grateful that you could stand up for those girls exploited by Wendell. You're my idol."Harriet raised her eyebrows, wondering if Carol had just come to thank her.She hadn't expected to have fans now.Harriet tucked her hair behind her ears. Her manners were gentle yet strong.She smiled and said coolly, "It's what I do."Carol was mesmerized by her decisive manners.She had been in the company for several days and had seen M
Chapter 579Delbert stepped into the office and closed the door.In the next instant, he pinned Harriet against the wall and buried his head in her neck. His eyes were filled with possessive desire.His voice was hoarse and deep."As more people start to like you, your world gets bigger. Will I become dispensable to you?" he said, sounding like an injured animal.Harriet felt a bit heartbroken. "How is that possible?"She tried to comfort him, but Delbert suddenly looked up at her. "If one day you meet someone better than me, will you still like me?"He pinned her in the corner, his eyes rimmed with a layer of red."Of course, I will," Harriet blurted out.She snuggled up against him and spoke sweetly. "I like you the most. In this world, no one is better than you. No one treats me as well as you do."Her tone was firm.There wouldn't be another man who could move her like this.The possessiveness in Delbert's eyes receded, but the redness didn't fade. His voice remained
Chapter 580After receiving Delbert's special training, Harriet was now capable of handling everything in the company.As time ticked by, she felt thirsty and wanted to drink the coffee given to her by Carol.As soon as her hand touched the cup, she paused.Delbert noticed her action and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the coffee?""Yes!" Harriet nodded seriously.Her sense of smell was as sharp as her mother's, and a sniff was enough for her to detect that someone had drugged the coffee.This cup of coffee was given to her by Carol.She couldn't believe that Carol wanted to harm her.Given her look earlier, Carol really admired Harriet.'If it's not Carol, who could it be?' She thought.Delbert suddenly spoke. "This coffee was given by Carol, right? Don't worry. I have plenty of ways to get the truth from her.""The culprit might not be Carol. I believe in her. She must have been deceived by someone. It will be difficult to find out who wan
Chapter 581Before long, an employee sneaked to the office door and peeked inside.Confirming that Harriet had fallen asleep, she entered the office with a smirk.Carol was so easy to deceive.She had suggested that Carol deliver coffee to Harriet and thank Harriet in person, and Carol had listened. Carol was so naïve and easy to manipulate.She had taken the opportunity to drug the coffee. When Harriet woke up, she would only suspect Carol.The employee would leave the country with Garry's reward, and Harriet would never find her.Lately, many people had praised Harriet as a genius.That was ridiculous.Harriet fell for her trick so easily.This employee was the only confidant Garry still had in the company.She carried out Garry's plan by drugging Harriet through Carol. Once it succeeded, she would take the reward from Garry and leave the country.They planned to have Garry's subordinate drug Harriet.The employee would then take Harriet away from the office under the pr
Chapter 582'What's going on? Isn't Harriet drugged and unconscious? Why did she suddenly wake up?' The employee wondered.From Harriet's composed look, she realized that Harriet had seen through their plan.Before the employee could figure out what was happening, Harriet stood up and approached her.Her initial laziness turned into sternness. "What are you up to? Come clean, or..."Harriet raised her hand and made a throat-slitting gesture.Daunted, the employee swallowed. While retreating, she tried to stay calm and explain. "I just saw that the door to your office wasn't closed, and you were sleeping inside, which seemed unsafe. So, I came to close it for you."She put on an aggrieved look. "I was concerned about you. Why are you threatening me and accusing me wrongly?"Harriet sneered and looked at her coldly.This employee had the nerve to say that she had been wronged.Harriet's office was located on a high floor, rarely frequented by people.She had pretended to be dr
Chapter 583Delbert entered the office, blocking the employee's path.He closed the door, leaned against it, folded his arms, and stared at the employee.His appearance reassured Harriet.She wanted to threaten the employee again, but the latter turned back and begged for mercy."I'm sorry, Ms. Bass. Please let me go. I don't know anything," she said."You should tell me the truth," Harriet sneered.The employee hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell Harriet everything.After finishing her confession, she fearfully looked at Harriet.Harriet's brows were furrowed the entire time. If she hadn't sensed that something was wrong and chosen to believe Carol, the consequences would have been unimaginable.This employee was Garry's confidant, and she was as malicious as him.Harriet snorted and glanced at the employee.Then she shifted her gaze toward Delbert.She was not happy after learning about Garry, Wendell, and Liam's plan.But the employee was the only witness sh
Chapter 584Harriet cuddled against Delbert's chest and continued, "If you're worried, why don't you come with me? With your protection, I will be fine."Delbert was touched by how much she trusted him."Okay," he said, nodding in agreement.Happy about him going back to normal, Harriet showed a girlish look.She knew that as long as she acted cute, he would agree to anything she asked.Having appeased Delbert, she revised the plan and turned to look at the employee. "After I pretend to be knocked out by the drug, Darryl will escort me to the contact person. If they ask about his identity, just tell them that he is also a trusted person Garry planted in the company. Got it?"The employee gave no response, and Harriet frowned.In such a tense situation, she was daydreaming.In fact, the employee wasn't daydreaming. She was just shocked by the scene in front of her.Initially frightened and ready to reject Harriet's plan, she was delighted to hear that Darryl disagreed with Har
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
