The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon

“But these things are clearly secrets between Nora and me. How could Lula know about them? “Nora, did you deliberately incite her to slander me?”

Harriet glared at Nora, looking unapproachable.

In her previous incarnation, scenes of Nora bullying and slandering her were still vivid in her mind. At that time, she was a fool and didn’t know how to defend herself for things she hadn't done.

Because those who were watching only recognized visible physical wounds as injuries, but they didn’t realize that hurtful words also caused harm.

Even when she wasn’t a fool and could argue back, after speaking out, they wouldn’t sympathize with her. Instead, they would treat her humiliation by Nora as a topic for post—dinner entertainment.

The only one who truly sympathized with her was Delbert. Even though she knew that Delbert’s sympathy was based on his affection for Yvonne, she still couldn’t help but fall for him.

In her previous incarnation, Delbert would gently stroke her head and talk to her in a gentle voice when she was hurt and upset, “Harriet, cry if it hurts. I'll always be by your side!”

Upon thinking of that, Harriet felt like crying. Fortunately, the overhead light concealed it. If one didn’t look closely, it wasn’t very noticeable. But Delbert, who had been holding her all along, immediately noticed it and grasped her hand hanging below to warm her.

Although he didn’t know what had suddenly happened to Harriet, he wanted to tell her that as long as he was by her side, she had nothing to fear.

Even if the sky fell, he would support her. She just needed to stay obediently under his protection.

When Harriet raised her eyes, she met Delbert’s tender gaze, which was as intoxicating as fine wine. She couldn’t help but be even more intoxicated.

Nora never expected that she would be outwitted by Harriet before she could expose Harriet’s true nature. At this moment, she was in a dilemma.

After all, Delbert wasn’t to be trifled with. If he found out that she was attempting to ruin his relationship with Harriet again, he really would kill her.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

“Harriet, | think you’ve misunderstood me,” Nora said somewhat awkwardly.

Then she immediately turned to Lula and said, “Lula, help me explain!”

But Lula didn’t have time to deal with Nora’s affairs. Her own situation was a

mess.

“W-What do | need to explain?”

Lula pretended to be ignorant and clueless, trying to distance herself from the situation.

She was about to lose Marc’s support, so she couldn't afford to get involved with Nora now and ruin her image of innocence in Marc’s eyes.

“See, | know that it’s you who deliberately incited her to ruin my relationship with Delbert. “Hmm! I’m angry. | demand an apology to be appeased!”

Harriet said sternly with a pouting face.

Just an apology? Nora felt skeptical and surprised.

Could Harriet let her off so easily after catching her again?

Of course it was impossible. A hint of determination flashed in her lively eyes.

She was waiting for the fish to take the bait!

Although Nora felt that there was a trick in it, everyone was watching her.

She found it hard to back down at this moment. Delbert’s murderous cold made her scalp tingle and filled her with fear. After much hesitation, Nora had no choice but to give in and apologize.
