Chapter 94 Teasing and Leaving
‘Ahhh! How could Delbert tease me like that?!’ Harriet thought.
Seeing Harriet’s embarrassed look, Delbert couldn’t contain his amusement. He found her utterly adorable at this moment. “Now we can go down for the meal.”
Only then did Delbert let Harriet go and walk out of the room-a
classic move of teasing and then leaving.
Seated on the sofa, Harriet remembered the embarrassment that had just happened and clenched her fists in frustration. She had just made such a spectacle of herself!
Rather than going downstairs to eat, Harriet cocooned herself in the quilt.
If Delbert thought he could tease and leave, he was wrong! She just wanted to act up; she just wanted Delbert to come and coax her, to make up for the grievances of the past few days.
She stayed under the quilt, waiting for Delber to come and coax her. Meanwhile, she idly scrolled through news articles on her phone, killing her boredom.
Soon a piece of news seized her attention.
The case of Clifton evading taxes had been thoroughly investigated by the relevant authorities. It was done by the general manager of the Munoz Group, and the manager had confessed and been sentenced to prison.
The newly appointed general manager of Munoz Group was Nora, and to everyone’s surprise, she had devised a brilliant business plan,

That was impossible!
Harriet knew the general manager. He was an honest man and would never do something like that. Besides, she didn’t believe the dull- witted Nora could compose such a successful business plan!
Harriet intuitively sensed there was more to the story, so she immediately left the news page and texted a message to Molly. Soon after, Molly called her back, her voice shivering. She faintly carried a hint of a sob, clearly having just cried. Harriet cut to the chase, “Did Marc trouble you again?”
She knew more or less about Molly and Marc’s matter.
Molly’s demeanor revealed that she was troubled by the rascal Marc.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
“No,” Molly replied with a wry smile, trying to mask her hard time.
Somehow, she subconsciously viewed Harriet as her friend.
She had just argued with Marc, but it wasn’t a full-blown quarrel because she was quiet from beginning to end. Seeing her appearance, Marc became angrier and went out to his
sweetheart.
She could understand because she had never been the one he loved. This marriage was just a chain that bound him. “Don't hide it from me. You know he doesn’t love you. Why not divorce him?”
Ignoring her own concerns, Harried focused on persuading Molly to escape the predicament. Otherwise, the tragedy in her previous life would repeat itself.
Molly pursed her lips and fell silent.
Right, everyone knew he didn’t love her, but she clung to a faint hope that if she made enough effort and played the role of a dutiful wife, he would return and realize her worth.
But later, after facing disappointment numerous times, she gave up and thought about divorcing him. Yet, at this point, Harriet disclosed the reason behind her accidental encounter with Marc and
subsequent intimacy. According to Harriet, it was orchestrated by someone, and the person was Marc’s sweetheart.
Then she didn’t want to divorce Marc because she didn’t want him to
return to the woman harboring ulterior motives and get himself harmed.
Harriet waited for a long time but didn’t hear Molly's reply; instead, she only caught the sound of an unsteady, prolonged breath. She remembered Molly’s tragic fate from her previous life, determined to persuade her.
“Tell him the truth and get a divorce.”
Only by divorcing Marc could Molly avoid death.
“Enough about my matters. What do you want to exchange this ti for my assistance?” Molly changed the subject.
Harriet was about to say something when someone knocked on the
door.
