The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon

Chapter 1 Rebirth

Harriet Munoz, the infamous simpleton in Meawood City, died.

She died on her birthday.

Before she died, her younger sister, Nora Munoz, deceived her into signing an organ donation form. As she was tied to the operating table, all the organs that could be donated were removed from her body without anesthesia, causing her to die in excruciating pain.

As for Vernon Morton, whom she thought was the man she loved? After swindling away the inheritance left to her by her mother, he turned around and gave it to Nora as a betrothal gift.

Now they were kissing right in front of her corpse. Holding each other, they mocked her for her stupidity.

It was only just before her death that Harriet saw through their true colors.

She finally realized that in this world, the only person who had been kind to her was Delbert Carlson.

He was Harriet's husband, who didn't mind that she was mentally challenged, and he even used a marriage contract to protect her. But she put poison in his wine and killed him.

At that moment, Harriet realized she had made a grave mistake.

"Delbert, I'll protect you in the afterlife."

...

"Delbert!"

Harriet woke up from her dream, tears streaming down her face. The excruciating pain seemed to linger, causing her to shudder.

She looked around in a daze, realizing that she was not on a blood-soaked operating table, but in the Munoz family's seemingly luxurious yet extremely simple room.

'Wasn't I dead?' She wondered.

"Mom, I don't want to marry Delbert. I heard he's ugly and has no interest in women, and he's ruthless. If I marry him, my life will be disastrous.

"I am known as a medical genius in Meawood City, and I will be world-famous. How can I marry such an ugly man who has no power or influence? If I have to marry, I will marry the successor to the Carlson Group."

A sharp cry suddenly came from downstairs.

It was Nora, someone Harriet wished she could tear apart.

Nora said that she didn't want to marry Delbert Carlson.

'Could it be...'

Harriet rushed to the calendar.

The current time was a year ago.

Now she was sure that she had been reborn.

It was a year ago, before her family drugged and knocked her out. They then sent her to marry Delbert in place of Nora.

'Delbert, Delbert...' Harriet murmured to herself.

She remembered the past events, and the thought of this name made her heart bleed.

Her eyelids trembled, and tears started to well up in her eyes.

'Delbert, I'm willing to marry you in this life, and I will protect you.'

Through the mirror on the dressing table, Harriet found herself in garish clothes and heavy makeup.

In her previous life, she thought that Nora's styling made her look like a celestial beauty, but now she found it ugly.

And it seemed that she was no longer mentally challenged.

The retarded girl with the mental capacity of a six-year-old in her previous life had suddenly returned to normal.

Perfect! She could now seek revenge for herself and Delbert.

Harriet sat at the dressing table, beginning to remove her makeup. Her eyes glinted with coldness.

In this life, she was no longer that foolish girl, but a nemesis coming back from hell.

None of Nora, Vernon, and the rest of the Munoz family who had driven her mother to death would escape.

She would make them pay with their lives.

She would make them suffer.

After the commotion, the house quieted down.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Symbolically knocking a few times, Nora and her mother, Bessie Delgado, pushed the door open.

Seeing Harriet removing her makeup, the two women were stunned.

'Didn't this fool use to love being dressed like this?' They wondered.

Bessie came to her senses, putting on a kind and motherly expression. Approaching Harriet, she spoke with an earnest tone.

"Harriet, I presume you know that your sister is about to marry the eldest son of the Carlson family, but she is still young and doesn't want to marry so early. She wants to give up this opportunity to you.

"The Carlson family is a top clan in Meawood City. If you marry Delbert, you'll live a life of luxury. A whole bunch of servants will be at your service. How about it?"
