Chapter 67
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon
Chapter 67 Beef Stew Vernon handed Harriet a piece of beef, expecting her to enjoy it.
However, to everyone's astonishment, she casually tossed it aside. without a second thought.
Vernon turned pale, his shock evident.
Unfazed, Harriet raised her chin and gave Vernon a disdainful look..
âI'm sorry, but | donât like beef stew anymore.â
She turned to Delbert. In his eyes, there was a mixture of inquiry and suspicion.
Harriet didnât mind if he doubted her sincerity. They had a long life ahead anyway.
She beamed at Delbert.
âI'll marry Delbert and follow his taste. | like fish now.â
She picked up a piece of fish and carefully removed the bones. Instead of putting it in Delbertâs bowl, she sent it to his mouth.
âOpen your mouth and have my fish.
Harriet remembered that Delbert had a great fondness for fish in their previous life. But no one had been willing to patiently remove the bones for him, and he was too lazy to do it himself.
As a result, fish rarely appeared on the Carlson familyâs dining table.
If she hadnât bumped into his joyful look while eating fish, she would have thought he didnât like it.
Now she was willing to take on the role of removing fish bones for him, and she would do so for a lifetime.
Delbert was surprised by her action and stared deeply into her eyes, trying to discern her true emotions. Was it sincerity or deception?
The radiant light in Harrietâs eyes assured him of her sincerity.
And so, he chose to believe her.
Even if she wanted to deceive him, he would accept it.
With burning eyes fixed on Harriet, he sighed under his breath, held her fleshy hand, and opened his mouth.
The joy in his eyes was undeniable, even infecting Harriet.
Delbertâs heart melted after he had the tender fish meat, and the cold air around him dissipated.
It was good to know that Harriet remembered his preference.
Vernon, observing this scene, tightened his grip on the fork.
Harriet used to look at him with boundless delight now had her eyes and heart for another man.
Vernon couldnât help but feel a sudden sense of melancholy, and he said, âIt seems you like Mr. Delbert very much.â
His tone carried an unfriendly edge.
âOf course!â Harriet exclaimed proudly.
âDelbert is handsome, wealthy, and gentle, so who else can | like? Right, Delbert?â
She took the opportunity to rub against Delbertâs body, expecting his praise.
Delber rubbed her hair and curled his lips in response.
âBut if | recall correctly, you said similar things to Vernon before,â
Nora interjected.
Nora was jealous of their display of affection, but she didnât dare show it on the surface.
