The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon

Harriet didn’t care about Lula’s screams and mercilessly threw another glass at her.

Lula deceived Marc by claiming she had hemophobia, which caused numerous arguments between Marc and Molly. But looking at her current state, her hemophobia must be fake.

Harriet didn’t mind helping Lula turn this hemophobia into a real

condition.

In the end, Lula was hit so hard that her eyes rolled back, and she passed out.

“Lula, my daughter!” Colleen started crying hysterically again upon seeing Lula collapse.

“Cory, call an ambulance!” Delbert calmly gave the order.

Soon, an ambulance hurriedly arrived.

Lula was whisked away on a stretcher, and Colleen was forcibly escorted out by Cory, never to return to Meawood City. The commotion finally subsided, and tranquility returned to the vi save for the ashen-faced servants trembling in fear.

“Harriet, you said earlier that you were tired, so I'll make breakfast for you,” Delbert said, looking at Harriet, who had transformed froma

fierce lioness into a cute rabbit.

He affectionately ruffled her hair.

“Okay, thank you, Delbert,” Harriet responded.

Seeing an opportunity to be lazy, she immediately hopped onto the sofa, turned on the TV, and waited to be served breakfast. Asoup drama was playing on TV, which made Harriet squeal with delight.

It wasn’t long before she caught a whiff of something burning.

Harriet turned her head suspiciously and saw Cory making a call with a stern expression, walking past her. “Hello, 911?”Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Sensing that something was amiss, Harriet immediately looked toward the kitchen. Sure enough, she saw flickering flames through. the semi-transparent kitchen glass door.

Harriet was stunned. ‘Is Delbert cooking or practicing alchemy?’ She palmed her forehead and hurried to the kitchen.

As soon as she opened the kitchen door, a pungent smell of smoke rushed out. Delbert stood in the smoky and chaotic kitchen, still

maintaining his noble demeanor.

“Delbert, you don’t know how to cook. Why didn’t you tell Harriet?” Harriet said, going over to grab Delbert. He was still holding a knife when she led him out of the kitchen

Her cooking skills were poor, but she didn’t expect Delbert’s to b

even worse.

The kitchen was engulfed in flames, and they could only wait for firefighters to arrive and extinguish the fire. “Harriet, | don’t know how to cook. Will you dislike me?” Delbert asked, looking a bit upset.

“Give me some time. | can learn. | will definitely learn!”

He remembered that Vernon was good at cooking.

That day at the Munoz family’s villa, when Vernon made beef stew, he secretly tasted them, antithey were delicious. He was afraid thHarriet would be allured and leave him again.

He still remembered when he found out that Harriet was Clifton’s daughter, and they had been in the same city all these years. He disregarded the danger and ran out to see her.

But what he saw was her following Vernon eagerly, just to pester Vernon to make beef stew for her.

Vernon-couldn’t resist her so in the end, he made them for her and put the shiny and flavorful bemo ter bowl.

And she looked up at Vernon, smiling gently under the warm light, saying, Vernon, you're so good.. like you so much.” The affectionate way she looked at Vernon was something Delbert couldn't help but envy.

He was wealthy, powerful, and handsome, but he didn’t know how to

cook.

That could serve as a reason for Harrier to leave nim.
