The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon

Chapter 15 Jealousy

Harriet was shaken to the core.

The words echoing in her ears seemed to overlap with the vows of Delbert from her previous life. He had spent all his money on her and pampered her to the extreme.

For a moment, she thought that he hadn’t changed. Just like in previous life, his eyes were full of love when he looked at her. But why did he look away when she grinned at him?

Clifton was furious. The daughter he had spent a fortune nurturing turned out to be such a useless person. She was full of nonsense, and she offended Milton.

Because of her, he had lost face in front of all the elites in Meawood City.

Disgusted, he drove away, leaving the mother and daughter behind.

“Sweetheart, forget it and face the music,” Bessie advised.

“| won't accept it! Never!”

Unable to stomach the humiliation, she pushed Bessie away and stormed back into the banquet hall. She had only one idea in her mind, which was to snatch back the title that originally belonged to her. At the party, disregarding the discussions in the audience

“On what basis?”

Nora was consumed with jealousy.

She swore that she would snatch back the position by hook or by crook.

The madness blazing in her eyes was caught by Harriet, who had just stepped down from the stage. Harriet continued to smile foolishly, hiding her thoughts from

everyone.

Following her line of sight, Delbert spotted Nora and winked at his assistant, Cory. Taking the hint, Cory walked toward Nora.

Delbert tugged at Harriet, who came to her senses and followed him.
