Chapter 32 Man in BlackNora's eyes widened in shock as the burly man's body trembled and collapsed onto her.His warmth lingered, but his life was gone.The sight of his blood made her scarlet eyes appear even more eerily red.The other men on the ship were terrified by the scene, screaming and attempting to flee. However, their attempts were futile as they were swiftly subdued by figures clad in black clothes and masks, descending from the deck.The leader of the group blew on the still steaming muzzle of his gun, strolling toward the dazed Nora. He towered in front of her, looking down at her with contempt."Our boss can help you return to Meawood City and eliminate everyone on this ship to keep your disgrace hidden. But you must make a deal with us!"...On the island, Harriet was sleeping in Delbert's villa.She was plagued by a tumultuous dream.

Chapter 34 The Kitchen ConfrontationDespite his seething anger, Delbert refused to unleash harsh words on her. Instead, he bottled up his fury and sought solace in a solitary drinking session. Eventually, he imbibed to the point of developing stomach ulcers.In this new life, Harriet made a vow to safeguard his stomach.She would start by making breakfast for him.As Harriet approached the kitchen, Colleen intercepted her."Miss Harriet, you can't enter!"Surrounded by servants, Colleen put her nose in the air, as if she were the owner of this villa.Annoyed, she puffed out her cheeks. "Why?""Miss Harriet, you must understand that Mr. Delbert is now the president of Carlson Group. If someone with ill intentions were to poison him, we servants would bear the blame."So, even you, Miss Harriet, can't enter the kitchen.""That's right. The kitchen is such an important place. How can anyone just waltz in?" The servants echoed her words, looking at Harriet with disdain.Accusto

Chapter 36 Encounter in the WoodsThere were rumors about Delbert feeding mastiffs with people who had made mistakes, but Harriet thought it was nonsense. Delbert would never do such a thing.As she delved deeper into the woods, the thick foliage blocked out sunlight, leaving only a lush green.The road was littered with rocks and overgrown weeds, making it very difficult for her to walk."Delbert, I am here. Where are you?" Harriet called out eagerly, pushing aside dense leaves in search of Delbert.She could occasionally hear the roar of some animals amidst the woods.Harriet stood with bated breath, narrowing her eyes. The roar was getting closer.A silver needle slipped out of her cuff as she prepared to take action.Suddenly, a huge figure jumped down from the stone above and landed in front of her, stirring up leaves and dust.Harriet saw a pair of blue eyes and a scar on its face, which made the creature appear more ominous.The creature approached her, spitting saliva

Chapter 38 A ShowHarriet's scream echoed through the air, causing Delbert to panic.He swiftly turned around, only to discover that Harriet had dropped her lunch box, while Tucker, the mischievous culprit, sniffed at the fallen egg with great excitement.Disgusted by the taste, the dog stuck out its tongue and stepped aside.Harriet groaned at its disrespect for her cooking skills.Delbert couldn't bring himself to blame the dog.After all, Tucker was like a son to him.While fierce at times, Tucker would never do anything to displease Harriet.Delbert fixed his gaze on Harriet, who looked at the broken lunchbox with a sad expression.Sensing his gaze, she looked up at him.Her nose tingled, and her eyelashes trembled as she blinked away the tears.Within seconds, she transformed into a pitiful figure, crying out loud.Tears streamed down her fair face, evoking sympathy.Harriet knew that by crying like this, Delbert would forget his anger and attend to her every need, ju

Chapter 40 PunishmentThe servant covered her forehead, trembling as she delivered the message. "Mr. Delbert has returned with Miss Harriet, and he demanded your presence.""Mr. Delbert is back? Just in time!" Colleen's face brightened.She had been worried that she wouldn't be able to deal with Harriet, but now, an unexpected opportunity had presented itself.She believed that once she leveraged her long-standing service and Milton's trust, Delbert would have to punish Harriet and make it right for her.Harriet was just a fool unfavored by Delbert anyway.Colleen got carried away with these thoughts and smiled triumphantly.'Harriet, just wait for your demise!' She thought viciously.Colleen got up and hurried to the hall.As soon as she arrived and laid eyes on Delbert, she pinched her thigh hard, forcing tears to well up in her eyes.She approached him and cried out, "Mr. Delbert, you have to uphold justice for me."However, her voice lured a colossal creature, causing it
