Chapter 297

“Harriet!” Molly rushed over and helped her up. “Are you feeling unwell?”

The sight of Harriet’s vacant eyes made Molly worry.

Harriet ignored her question and went back to bed.

She turned to look out the window. It was sunny outside, but her mood was cloudy.

Delbert had been missing for seven days.

“Are you worried about Delbert?” Molly cautiously asked.

Upon hearing the name, Harriet trembled and started to shed tear:

“Molly, what should | do? | promised you that | wouldn’t lose contro of my emotions, but | can’t control myself,” she said. “I’m so worried about Delbert. He’s been missing for seven days, and | feel like my heart has stopped beating!”

She weakly curled up in Molly’s arms. She had done her best to comfort herself, but as time went by, there was no news coming from Imperium. She couldn't take it any longer.

She held Molly tightly and burst into tears.

At that moment, she understood Delbert’s worry and fear when he saw her in trouble.

She was feeling the same way.

She was afraid that her Delbert would disappear and never come back. She would be left behind to face the cold world alone.

Molly knew that Harriet had suppressed her emotions too much during this time.

She patted Harriet’s back and comforted her. “It’s okay! Just cry it After Harriet fell asleep, Molly left the ward and saw Cory s outside with a pale face.

Cory nodded to her and asked, “Is Ms. Harriet okay?”

“Yes! She cried and fell asleep,” Molly solemnly replied.

“That’s good!” Cory breathed a sigh of relief. Harriet was the most precious person to Delbert, and he had to protect her no matter wha After venting her emotions, Harriet recovered day by day. Her complexion was no longer as bad as it was when she was admitted to the hospital.

On the ninth day, Harriet packed up and was ready to leave the hospital.

However, just as Cory went to handle her discharge procedures, Harriet turned on her phone and was shocked by a piece of news.

She stared at it, blinking desperately. She thought that she was hallucinating and reading it wrong.

On the news, it read, “After investigation by the Imperium police, the body of Delbert, the president of Carlson Group, was found in a sunken car, with a destroyed face and unrecognizable appearance, but based on clothing, there is no doubt that it is Delbert.

“The Carlson family has contacted the Imperium police and confirmed that the body is indeed Delbert. The Carlson family has issued a condolence announcement, confirming that Delbert died three days ago.
