The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon

Caught off guard, Vernon was somewhat stunned.

As for Nora, she had long lost her rationality and was clinging to Vernon, making it impossible for him to push her away. Soon after, the reporters bombarded them with questions.

“Mr. Morton, are you and Miss Munoz in a romantic relationship?”

“Now that you're openly dating at Holy Night, does it mean your wedding is on the way?”

“So, is Miss Munoz’s refusal to marry into the Carlson family because of you?”

One sharp question after another was thrown at Vernon by the reporters.

He had to quickly shield Nora behind him, not to protect her, but to prevent her embarrassing state from being captured by the reporters and causing trouble for

him.

Faced with the reporters‘ questions, Vernon got mad as his chest heaved up and down, his nerves taut, and his anger raging inside.

“No more photos!”

Vernon couldn’t bear it any longer. He snatched a camera from a reporter and smashed it on the ground. There was a moment of silence at the scene, followed by even greater commotion.

Vernon couldn’t reason with a group of reporters who were single—mindedly looking for big news.

He could only drag Nora, who had lost all reason, away in anger...

At the same time.

After the banquet, Delbert and Harriet prepared to return to the Welch family’s

mansion.

As soon as they got into the car, Delbert pressed Harriet against the car window.

At this moment, Delbert’s stunningly perfect face was right before Harriet, his hot breath spraying on her ear, making her heart uncontrollably race.

Harriet blinked, took a deep breath, quickly adjusted her expression, and put on

an innocent smile.

“Delbert, are you going to do something bad to me again?”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Harriet grinned.

Her innocent and pure appearance made Delbert’s emerging desire vanish instantly. His girl was too young, while he was too impatient.

Delbert chuckled softly in her ear, lightly playing with a strand of Harriet’s long hair in his hand, then blew air into her earlobe with a faint smile.

“Yes, I’m going to do something bad to you and punish you for being naughty.”

“What did | do wrong?”

Looking at Delbert’s face, which could captivate all living beings, Harriet couldn’t help but become entranced. Delbert leaned closer to her ear, his voice like a bass cannon, gradually drifting into the depths of Harriet’s ears. “Since you wanted to set up Nora, why didn’t you ask me for help?” Delbert looked unhappy.

Harriet was startled.

It turned out that all the things she had done in secret couldn’t escape Delbert’s

eyes.

But so what?

As long as she didn’t admit it, Delbert wouldn't force her to do so.

Harriet still wore a bewildered look, “Delbert, what are you talking about? | don’t

understand.”

“Really don’t understand?”

“Yeah.” Harriet nodded vigorously.

Delbert smiled resignedly.

If she didn’t understand, then so be it.

Anyway, he would settle everything after her. Harriet could do whatever she wanted.

After all, it was Harriet who saved him from desperation when he was a child and brought hope into his life... +15 BONUS

At the entrance of Holy Night.

“Mare, | feel dizzy. Can you send me home?”

Lula didn’t want to give up on Marc easily. She pretended to be weak and coquettishly asked, completely ignoring Molly. She held Marc’s arm and gently swayed it.

That action deeply hurt Molly.
