Chapter 79

Harriet stared blankly at the fierce-looking Delbert, but the latter was silent. He just stared back at her,

his gaze as sharp as a knife, seemingly able to pierce through her.

She took a deep breath and finally plucked up the courage to ask

again, “What’s wrong with you, Delbert? Did I upset you again by doing something wrong?”

Facing his silence and serious expression, she was flustered. She reached out to pull his hem, but

Delbert grabbed her wrist.

“Stop acting!”

Delbert’s cold eyes mocked Harriet, who seemed frightened by him. Even if you’re not tired, I don’t

bother to continue this drama with you!”

His eyes were bloodshot, and his voice, low and husky, carried a numbing, coldness reminiscent of the

bone-chilling snow from Alps that never melts.

He struggled to suppress the boiling bloodlust within him, but the crimson at the corners of his eyes

intensified.

Just the memory of what Vernon said and their embrace fueled his anger. In such fury, he wished to

destroy this world.

Harriet, as pure and untainted as the pristine crescent moon in the night sky, brightened his dark life.

Little did he expect that for Vernon’s sake, she would compromise and stay by his side, deceiving him

and pretending to be naive.

She probably didn’t know that he would be willing to give her anything,

discomfort?

“What are you talking about, Delbert? I don’t understand!”

Harriet remained cautious and ignorant.

She really had no idea why Delbert suddenly became angry.

Quiet and serene like the green chrysanthemums in autumn, she was someone one couldn’t bear to

harm, let alone show any hint of irritation.

In her amber eyes, a faint mist lingered as she silently observed the enraged Delbert.

She called tentatively one more time, “Delbert…”

But the moment she opened her mouth, Delbert coldly interrupted, Don’t call me like that!”

Then he stepped into the car without sparing Harriet another glance.

But his mood was equally heavy.

Even though he was infuriated by her deception, Delbert couldn’t b himself to scold her harshly. This

self-inflicted punishment was way of forcing a temporary forgetfulness.

It wasn’t until the stern-faced Delbert boarded the car that Cory realized what was going on. He quickly

motioned for Harriet to get in the car.

Although he was unaware of the reason behind their quarrel, he knew that the two cared deeply for

each other. But, of course, he had no right to interfere with their dispute.

Yet, Nora and Vernon, standing on the second floor of the Munozs’ villa watching the fun, saw

everything.

Their eyes, maliciously fixed on the direction Delbert’s car departed, gleamed with a sinister

satisfaction,

Nora took pride in her plan’s effectiveness, believing she had swiftly ruined Harriet and Delbert’s

relationship. It seemed her day to become Mrs. Carlson of the Carlson Group was approaching soon!

Vernon, on the other hand, harbored twisted emotions. He reassured himself that he had no feelings for

the foolish Harriet. Instead, he

simply wanted to secure significant financial compensation from the Carlson Group after Harriet’s

divorce or cancellation of the planned marriage with Delbert.

But at the same time, his envy surged within him as Delbert

possessed the naive affection and radiant smiles that used to be his alone.

So now, he still wanted Harriet’s gaze to continue lingering on him.

Even if she was a fool, he accepted it!

After all, in this world, there would never be anyone like Harriet, who wouldn’t look down on him

because of his status, but would pu admire and idolize him just because he was Vernon!

That was enough!

As for Delbert and Harriet, they finally arrived at the island after more than forty minutes of car ride.
