Chapter 113
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon
Chapter 115 âHow dare you slander my woman? Are you asking for trouble?â Delbert snapped, pleased with Harrietâs knack for seeking his assistance.
Yet her playful hand was indeed distracting, hinting at an endearing yet embarrassing closeness, causing a slight blush to tint his ears.
âIf not for Marcâs protection, would you even be allowed on this island? In this villa? Youâre undeserving!â he added.
Delbert was now the president of the Carlson Group and a business magnate in Meawood City, wielding power and wealth that rivaled nations.
His excellence commanded respect and submission.
Asingle glance from him silenced Lula, rendering her too petrified to utter another word.
âDid you hear what Delbert said? Leave immediately!â Harriet demanded.
With Delbertâs backing, she felt emboldened. Slipping out of Delbertâs embrace, she advanced toward Lula, a steely resolve in her tone.
âWhat, do you fancy tasting the same Pig Tongue Salad made by me?â
She harbored no forgiveness for past grievances. She was determined to repay Molly by seeking justice for Mollyâs death.
As Harriet moved forward, Lula recoiled in fear.
Who could have foreseen the once-oppressed Harriet becoming so assertive and fearsome?
Cornered, Lula gritted her teeth. âMiss Harriet, how can you say such things about me? Even if my mother has wronged you, sheâs still a senior.â
âA senior?â Harriet laughed, finding it ludicrous. âThe seniors around. me all treat me kindly. No one bullied me as much as Colleen did. | feel like you're trying to distance Delbert and me.â
Once again, Lula could find no words to argue.
She glanced at Delbert, who remained expressionless behind Harriet. His thoughts were unknown.
Her eyes swiveled as she got an idea.
âMiss Harriet, | believe thereâs a misunderstanding. | didnât intend that, â she said.
She smiled and took a few steps back, deliberately moving closer to Delbert.
âSorry, | have anemia and am feeling a bit dizzy!â she said, taking the chance to feign weakness.
She leaned into Delbertâs arms, pretending to be dizzy because anger.
She was confident that her charm, which had attracted Marc to lavishly on her, would be able to lure Delbert away from Harriet.
But in the next instant, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her he astonished as she watched Delbert avoid her like the plague.
âMr. Delbert, you...â The words she was about to say were quickly swallowed.
After all, she couldnât afford to offend Delbert.
Delbert looked at Lula with disdain, and Harriet watched with ummusement.
She had seen shameless people before, but Lula was the most shameless person she had ever seen.
Lula had no sense of shame, seducing her fiancé right in front of her.
âMiss, are you feeling dizzy? Why do your eyes look so scary?â Harriet casually picked up a glass from the counter and sneered.
âSince you want to faint so much, Iâll help you. No need to thank me!â Harriet said.
Before Lula could react, Harriet raised the glass in her hand high and smashed it toward her.
A bloody hole instantly appeared on Lulaâs forehead.
âAh! Are you out of your mind?â Lula screamed, her pupils trembling.
Her most precious possession was her face.
But Delbert remained unfazed and indulgent.
