"Liam, haven't you been troubled lately about how to deal with Harriet? I've just thought of a great way that will leave her with no chance to recover!"And this method won't damage the reputation of the Lynch family even if it gets out!"Liam was swayed by Lily's words. He indeed wanted to bring down Harriet to give the Lynch Group a chance to rise again in Imperium. He became curious about what plan Lily had in mind.After all, his sister had been foolishly outmaneuvered by Harriet every time, each plan more flawed than the last, easily giving Harriet leverage.But now Lily claimed her plan would destroy Harriet without harming the Lynch family's reputation.Postponing the apology wouldn't hurt. He might as well hear her out.With that thought, Liam looked up at Lily, signaling her to continue."Go on, what's your plan?"Seeing her brother not only willing to listen but also showing keen interest, Lily was overjoyed and eager to share."Liam, haven't you been conspiring wi
At this moment, Lily's eyes were filled with jealousy and malice. The seeds of jealousy had long been planted in her heart, taking root and growing into a towering tree that bore bitter fruit. She wished for Harriet's death! If this plan succeeded, Harriet would be ruined, and no one would dare to work with her again. With no progress in her work and being shunned by the public, Harriet would have no way out. Lily was certain that Liam had recently suffered a loss because of Harriet and must also dislike her. Therefore, he had forced her to apologize to Harriet due to public pressure. As long as Liam was willing to cooperate, the plan would definitely succeed! Then, she wouldn't have to endure Harriet's presence or suffer her insults. From then on, Imperium would only have one distinguished lady—the Lynch family's Miss Lily! Lily was feeling triumphant about her perfect plan.But the next moment, Liam grabbed her wrist with great force, not considering whether she
Lily claimed to help Liam because she saw him suffering a loss but he rejected her ridiculous plan. Yet she questioned whether he was her brother. How could such a person be his sister? And how could he have pampered his own sister since birth? Lily seemed oblivious to Liam's changing expression and continued to complain bitterly about Liam, even bringing up past events. As Lily continued to complain about Liam, Liam’s expression grew increasingly grim. Just as Lily brought up a recent event and continued to complain about Liam, Liam released his grip on Lily's wrist. Just as Lily was puzzled by that, the next moment, with a loud "smack!" Lily's face swelled up completely red. She couldn't believe it and covered her left cheek which was now red with swelling. She looked at the hand that her brother had just let go of in disbelief. Her own brother who had doted on her for over a decade had hit her? And he had hit her on the face! Lily looked at Liam with an expre
The man on the other end of the phone was none other than Benjamin Walker, a trusted lieutenant in the underworld of Imperium, who worked under a prominent figure. The news about Benjamin's boss searching for jewels had been overheard by Lily during a shopping trip with her female friends. She didn't want to contact Benjamin directly, but there was very little information available about his boss. Even after spending a lot of money, she only managed to obtain Benjamin's phone number. Fearful that Benjamin would find out that Harriet was the one who had found the exceptional jewel, and out of concern for Harriet’s status as Arthur and Levi's sister, Lily had concealed the name of the person who had found the exceptional jewel when she spoke to Benjamin. Upon hearing Lily's words, Benjamin on the other end of the line became instantly anxious, followed by an uncontrollable sense of joy and excitement. "What do you mean by this? We are law-abiding citizens. How could we possib
As soon as his woman pushed her leg against him, Delbert raised his eyebrows with interest. His deep-set eyes showed a hint of indulgence. He allowed Harriet to push her leg against him while holding the bag containing the jewel in his left hand and putting his right hand in his pocket. With his eyes lowered and his long eyelashes fluttering, his voice was openly affectionate. "Yes, my babe looks handsome no matter what she does. She looks even more handsome now. So handsome that I can't resist…" His voice was so deep that it was almost hoarse. His beautiful eyes looked at Harriet with a hint of desire flickering within them. After hearing Delbert's words, a blush instantly rose to Harriet's cheeks. She had intended to imitate Delbert and tease him in return. But she didn't expect that after being pushed by her leg, Delbert would still respond so flirtatiously that it made her heart race! She had tried to steal a kiss but ended up being kissed instead! Delbert was
The next second, Harriet felt a sudden movement and was pulled aside by Delbert, narrowly avoiding a dagger that had flown unexpectedly from behind her.Harriet quickly withdrew her leg and turned around with a serious expression furrowing her brow, only to see a bulky figure with an ugly scarred face—the likely source of the thrown dagger.Beside this man were several underling-looking thugs, their faces less scarred than his.When the man noticed Harriet turning to look at him, his face showed no sign of guilt. Instead, he seemed defiant."What are you looking at? Scared by that knife? The one I threw just now wasn't even aimed at you, so what are you afraid of?"This man was Benjamin, who had been lying in wait with his gang. He had planned to strike as soon as Harriet and Delbert passed by but didn't expect the couple to start getting cozy next to the car, which was torturous for a single man like him!Benjamin became instantly enraged and, in a fit of anger, threw the da
Benjamin clearly didn’t expect Delbert's martial prowess to be so formidable.Before he could react further, Delbert handed the bag he was carrying to Harriet.With a cold demeanor, Delbert slowly approached Benjamin. The murderous aura emanating from him made Benjamin's cronies wish they could abandon him and run away.After that kick, Benjamin realized the man before him was no ordinary person. Noticing the murderous intent radiating from Delbert made him panic.He propped himself up on his hands and kept scooting backward on the floor."What do you want to do? Don't come any closer! I’m warning you, my boss is a big shot in the underworld of Imperium. If you mess with me, neither you nor your girlfriend can survive!"Seeing that things were going south, Benjamin resorted to flaunting his boss's status in an attempt to intimidate Delbert into leaving.But it was all in vain.Delbert showed no fear and kept advancing without any pause in his step.Step by step, Delbert wa
Benjamin didn't dare to have any unnecessary reaction. He quickly retracted his fist, preparing for the next attack. After all, from the moves and techniques displayed by Delbert just now, it was clear that Delbert’s skills weren’t simple. Delbert might even rival the elite group under his boss.He didn’t expect that the ordinary person mentioned by Lily would have such good skills!Benjamin's heart was in turmoil and he was shocked beyond measure, unable to calm down for a long time.As he was about to retract his hand, his wrist was suddenly tightly grasped.Looking up, he saw Delbert firmly holding his wrist and rendering him unable to move!Before he could react further, Delbert exerted force, directly twisting Benjamin's entire arm and forcing him to turn around.In an instant of pain, Benjamin clenched his teeth and continued to struggle, hoping to break free.Unfortunately, his attack didn’t succeed...Right at this moment, several of his men had also rushed toward
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
