Chapter 751"No, I just felt that we haven't been intimate for a long time, so I prepared these," Sadie said with a sly smile.Delbert pursed his lips. "You're so sweet!"He chewed the food and felt like it was tasteless.Sadie kept talking about their future, and Delbert occasionally nodded in response.He could tell that Sadie had something to tell him next.Sadie put down her fork and knife before calling out to him.Her coquettish tone made Delbert feel disgusted.He looked up at her and asked, "What's wrong?"Their eyes met, and Sadie stared at him greedily."Since we are about to get engaged, how about you transfer your assets to me, as a betrothal gift?" she said.Delbert raised an eyebrow and narrowed his eyes.He knew that Sadie was greedy, but he didn't expect her to covet his assets.Unfortunately, Sadie was a bit naïve if she thought she could deceive him."Sure! My assets are your assets!" Delbert replied.His tone was calm and gentle.The night enveloped h
Chapter 752Sadie didn't want to waste any time. She wanted the agreement to come into effect as soon as possible.Ben took the agreement and almost laughed out when he saw Delbert's signature."What are you laughing about?" Sadie glared at Ben, feeling like he was laughing at her.Ben cleared his throat and said, "Nothing! Congratulations, Miss Bass!"Ben was just too familiar with Delbert's signature. Every time Delbert signed a contract, he liked to add 'HM' after his name. That was an abbreviation of Harriet's name, and not many knew about it.However, it was missing from this agreement, which meant that the agreement was not valid.It seemed that Sadie didn't know, and she was dreaming about getting Delbert's assets.Ben glanced at Delbert, who nodded in response.Their actions were subtle and hard to notice.As Ben remained silent, Sadie lost her patience."What do you think? Can you transfer Delbert's assets to me now?" she asked."Well, you have to wait for a while.
Chapter 753Harriet listened to Delbert's deep voice and started missing him."Thank you for your hard work. I will reward you," she said."Oh?" Delbert smiled, asking, "I want to have twins. Will you grant my wish?""Come on!" Harriet felt helpless.The reward she mentioned was not this."I meant that I would cook for you." Harriet wanted to know what it felt like to cook for him.Delbert laughed. "You're not good at cooking. Just forget it! Your well-being is the greatest reward for me."Harriet chuckled, "Are you afraid that I'll blow up the house?"They chatted until Harriet fell asleep.Delbert listened to her even breathing and reluctantly hung up the phone.When dawn broke, the Bass brothers came and disturbed her sleep.Harriet was wearing cute pajamas, unable to open her eyes. Then she noticed the anger on their faces."What's wrong?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.Her adorable appearance eased their anger.Henry was the first to speak. "My dear sister, do you kno
Chapter 754"Ah, didn't I already explain everything to you now? Don't worry too much about me. I've grown up," Harriet said."To us, you're always a child," Justin said, rubbing her head.They calmed down, knowing that Harriet had grown up now and had her own thoughts. They should let her handle her own things.They would always support her, but they couldn't stay around her forever.After arriving in Meawood City, Ben waited for a few days and then called Sadie."Miss Bass, there are some documents here for you to sign," he claimed."What kind of documents?" Sadie asked impatiently. She had given Ben all the necessary information. Why did she still have to go there in person?Ben's words were diplomatic and hard to understand.But Sadie didn't feel like going there. "Can't you just mail the documents to me? Or you can bring them to me.""Miss Bass, there is a high risk of the documents being lost by the delivery company during shipping. Moreover, it takes at least three d
Chapter 755Delbert didn't say anything, and Sadie continued, "There is a huge amusement park. Shall we go take a look?"Delbert wanted to go, but not with her.Harriet loved amusement parks.They went to the airport and boarded the plane.Delbert put on an eye mask and said, "I'll take a rest. Wake me up when we arrive."Soon, he fell asleep and dreamed of Harriet. They were holding hands and racing through various attractions at the amusement park, just like before.Her laughter echoed in his ears, and he smiled heartily.Sadie saw his smile and thought that he was dreaming of her. She leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep too.Soon, they arrived in Meawood City.They walked out of the airport together. In the early morning, the air was damp, and the sky was murky.They picked up their luggage and headed toward the booked hotel.Two people approached them and asked for directions.Sadie shook her head and said, "We just arrived, and we don't know."Daunted by the stran
Chapter 756"Delbert, where are you? Help!" Sadie cried out. "Sir, she's awake," someone reported.Delbert and Ben were playing chess. Delbert paused and said indifferently, "I see."He wasn't in a hurry to go over. He wanted Sadie to suffer a bit.It wasn't until they finished the whole game that Delbert strolled over.As he entered the basement, he heard Sadie sobbing, "Is anyone there? Please save me."She had been struggling and hadn't had any food. Now she had no strength left in her."What do you want? I can give you money and everything. Just let me go," she said with a weak voice.Delbert signaled his men to give her some food.He couldn't let her starve, not until he obtained what he wanted.Someone opened the door, went in, and fed Sadie some food.She ate so eagerly that food scraps smeared her face, but she didn't care.While swallowing, she asked, "Who are you people? Who sent you to kidnap me? And where did you take Delbert?""Are you full?" Delbert asked,
Chapter 757At Delbert's order, those men came up and slapped Sadie across the face.Sadie's cheeks swelled, and the blood dripped from her mouth.She screamed. With her aggressive personality, she had always relied on her power to bully others. She had never been hit before and didn't know what pain felt like.Now these men were merciless.She felt like she was going to die."I was wrong, Delbert. Please make them stop," she pleaded.Delbert indifferently told them to stop. "Reflect on your actions. I hope that the next time I come to see you, I will hear what I want to know."He turned and left.Filled with despair, Sadie had no chance of escaping from this dim basement.Thinking about the upcoming ordeal, she shuddered.She thought Delbert was just seeking revenge for that night when she tricked him into going out and had someone run over him. Little did she know that Delbert did everything for Harriet.After Delbert left, he ordered someone, "Give her some medicine. Try
Chapter 758Sadie was nervous. At first, she went to Imperium with Harriet's token, but Felipe saw through her trick.But instead of driving her away, Felipe chose to work with her. Felipe, an adopted son, wanted to use Sadie to control the Bass family. After Miriam returned, Felipe simply stood by when Sadie pushed her down the stairs.Having spilled everything, Sadie felt relieved.Due to her ignorance in her youth, she had driven herself to such greed. Later, living a comfortable life in the Bass family made her character even more arrogant. She clang to things that didn't belong to her.She wondered if she was wrong.After obtaining the evidence, Delbert left without saying a word or having a look at her.Sadie slumped onto the ground and laughed at herself.Whether in the past or now, she was destined not to lose Delbert. It was ridiculous.In the basement, there was a hidden camera that had just recorded everything.For Delbert, Sadie had no more utility value, but he
