Chapter 640

Author: Cheryl Rice
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.

    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

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

    Benjamin dared not resist and quickly handed over his phone to Delbert. After taking the phone, Delbert immediately dialed Lily's number using Benjamin's phone. It didn't take long for the call to be answered. In the moment of connection, without waiting for a response from Lily, Delbert said directly, "Lily, I advise you to put away your dirty thoughts! I still don't want to harm you, considering your relationship with Liam!" Suddenly! There was a loud bang! It sounded like the phone at the other end had fallen to the ground. On Lily's end, the phone she had been clutching moments ago suddenly dropped to the ground. The screen shattered, but Lily had no thoughts to spare for the phone. She stared blankly ahead, feeling a sudden chill in her limbs and a buzzing in her brain.

    After a moment, Mr. Vinson said slowly, his voice filled with malicious intent, "Didn’t they know who’s behind your back? You said you had already redeemed the account in my name and purchased that exceptional jewel. "It's just that those two didn't give you a chance to explain and directly took it from you, right?" Upon hearing Mr. Vinson's words, although Benjamin felt a bit uneasy about the first sentence, he quickly responded, “Yes.” In order to seek revenge from Mr. Vinson for himself, he even distorted the truth. In his account, he had originally possessed the jewel, and it was Harriet and Delbert who took it from him by force. After hearing Benjamin's response, Mr. Vinson stopped twirling the ring on his finger and leaned back in his chair, revealing an unexpectedly young and handsome face."Since the exceptional jewel is in the hands of that couple, and you have had dealings with them before, you can select a few of my men to deal with them. I want to see results wit

    Among the eight brothers, except for Alan, the other Bass brothers, including the usually cold and indifferent Levi, all looked curious and puzzled, wondering why Harriet had suddenly called them together."Yvonne, did you call us together for something? Did someone bully you again? We’ll help you seek revenge!"Henry, the doting brother, was the first to speak.Alan's gaze towards Harriet was unexpectedly deep, his expression inscrutable but showing a hint of curiosity similar to the rest of his brothers'."Yes, Yvonne, please tell us."Harriet sat with Delbert in the center of the eight brothers, smiled mysteriously, then took a bag containing jewel pendants from Delbert's hands.Skipping the pleasantries, she took out nine pieces of jewel pendants carved from precious gem stones from the bag. The carvings were no less exquisite than those of top-notch master carvers.Seeing the surprised expressions on all eight brothers' faces, Harriet proudly handed each of them one of th
