Chapter 22 None Would Get Away'Soon enough, you will meet your doom,' Nora thought.Harriet took the chicken soup and discreetly inserted a silver needle into it while Nora wasn't paying attention.Once the needle was immersed in the soup, its color began to fade, confirming that the soup had indeed been poisoned.Harriet put away the silver needle and gulped down the soup.Nora smiled contentedly and counted the time in her mind.Once Harriet fainted, she would take her to the back door, where the people arranged by Bessie were waiting to take Harriet to the Happy Harpers.However, nothing happened as twenty seconds had passed.Nora wondered if the drug was fake when Harriet spat out the soup and wrinkled her nose."This soup tastes awful. I don't like it.""Are you messing with me?"Nora angrily walked over and raised her hand to slap Harriet.But Harriet grabbed her wrist."Yes, I am." She sneered, her voice cold and cruel.Nora froze and widened her eyes in disbelief

Chapter 23 UnsuspectingBessie approached the sack with a triumphant smile on her face. Little did she know that the one inside was her daughter.Harriet smirked and turned to leave.She needed to get into Cory's car and head to the island.Seeing her come down with her luggage, Clifton put on a gentle smile."Sweeheart, is the luggage heavy? Let me help you." Harriet declined the offer. After placing the luggage down, she pretended to be reluctant and hugged Clifton."Dad, I can't bear to part with you.""Me too!" Clifton put on a show of sorrow.He thought about taking the chance to ask about the inheritance left by Miriam.But before he could broach the subject, Harriet brought it up herself."Dad, I was wrong last time. I shouldn't have sung to deceive you. Now I remember where my mother placed her treasure. But I have to leave now, or Delbert will be worried."Come and find me on Delbert's island tomorrow. I'll tell you.""Harriet, you are such a good daughter." Clif

Chapter 24 DesperationBessie picked up the silver needle and headed toward the sack.Nora's heart filled with joy as she recognized her mother's voice. But as soon as Harriet's name was mentioned, a sudden realization hit her.She remembered how she had failed to trap Harriet and gotten ensnared instead.'Is Harriet really retarded?'Before she could make sense of it all, a sudden jolt of pain surged through her."Die, you wretch!"With a vicious expression, Bessie stabbed the sack repeatedly.She thought it would devastate Harriet, but little did she know that it was her daughter, whom she had always doted on, suffering the final blow.Bessie became somewhat manic, and she began cursing the deceased Miriam.Inside the sack, Nora was in unbearable pain. Tears streamed down her pale face.She wanted to scream, telling her mother that she was inside.But her mouth had been taped shut by Harriet, and her hands and feet were bound. Unable to break free, she could only squirm d

Chapter 25 Arriving at the IslandWhen Bessie arrived at the front gate, Clifton told her that Harriet had already left.Bessie was shocked. "What? N... Harriet just left like that without saying goodbye to me?"Bessie felt a bit reluctant and regretful, but she soon smiled at the thought of imminent success."You never like Harriet, so stop pretending."Clifton gave her a strange look before turning back to the house.It didn't bother her.Once the plan succeeded, she would dump Clifton immediately....In the car, Harriet thought of what had just happened and smiled.In a good mood, she started humming a song.By now, Molly should have completed the task entrusted to her.There would be two good shows to watch tomorrow.At the intersection, the traffic light turned red, and Cory stopped the car."Madam, you look quite happy," he said, noticing Harriet's smile in the rearview mirror.Of course, she was happy.

The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 26 Colleen
Chapter 26 ColleenHarriet remembered the housekeeper.Colleen used to serve Milton, who treated her very well and let her take charge of a lot of things. She boasted high status in the old mansion.The servants competed with one another to shower her with flattery, presenting her with numerous gifts. The constant attention led to her developing a condescending demeanor.After Delbert rejoined the Carlson family, Milton sent Colleen to take care of him on the island.Colleen's power reached its peak, and she grew even more arrogant.Any disobedient servant would immediately be sacked by her.If Delbert didn't have such a gloomy temperament, she would have bullied him as well.In her previous life, Harriet suffered a lot from Colleen after she married into the Carlson family.Since Delbert hadn't driven her away yet, Harriet decided to settle the score with her.Having transformed from a pushover, Harriet now possessed all the necessary tools to handle an arrogant housekeeper.
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 27 Bathroom Encounter
Chapter 27 Bathroom EncounterHarriet joyfully went upstairs to Delbert's room.The room remained unchanged from her previous life when she first arrived here. The cool tones of the furnishings reflected the owner's temperament.Stepping into the room that had been her sanctuary for nearly a year, Harriet clenched her fingers. A mist of emotion clouded her eyes but soon dissipated.This very room had been the stage of her betrayal by Vernon. He had handed her a glass of wine, which she had naively believed to be laced with a mere sedative. Instead, it contained a lethal poison that extinguished the life of a proud and noble man.In this life, she vowed to shield Delbert from harm, even if it demanded the ultimate sacrifice."Delbert, I'm here to see you!"Harriet's voice echoed cheerfully through the room, but it was met with silence. Her eyes scanned the room, finding no trace of Delbert. The only sound was the rhythmic dripping of water from the bathroom.She curiously approa
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon Chapter 28 Not Gentle Anymore
Chapter 28 Not Gentle AnymoreIn front of Harriet, Delbert just couldn't contain his emotion.If she didn't leave soon, he was afraid that he would lose control.Following his line of sight, Harriet realized the drenched state of her clothes. Knowing his good intentions gave her a sense of relief.Delbert pulled on a bathrobe, emerged from the bathroom, and called over a maid. "Escort the lady downstairs to change her clothes."With a heavy heart, Harriet followed the maid out of the room.Once they learned the news, some servants went to report it to Colleen.Colleen choked on her tea and sputtered in disbelief."What? That simpleton wasn't ejected by Mr. Delbert, but instead asked to dress appropriately and attend to him?"She was incredulous. 'How could this be? Doesn't Mr. Delbert detest uninvited female company during his bath?'Her mind raced. 'If Mr. Delbert held Harriet in high regard, my position in the villa would be in jeopardy.'Colleen had served Delbert for yea

Chapter 29 The Doll"I think I've found your treasure."Narrowing his eyes, Delbert clamped down on Harriet's wrist and reached into her sleeve to pull out a silver needle.The needle held between his fingers glimmered dangerously.Harriet's eyes widened for a moment, but she soon regained her composure and continued to look at him innocently."It turns out to be a needle. Are you trying to murder me, or do you have other plans?"Delbert smiled, but his voice was hoarse and chilling.Harriet remained unruffled.She had anticipated that Delbert would find her silver needle.At the engagement party earlier, his words in the backstage lounge showed that he had begun to suspect her intelligence.But for now, Harriet couldn't reveal the fact that she was pretending to be foolish.She dared not bet on whether Delbert would reserve a place for her in his heart after learning that she had regained her intelligence.And she already had a plan to deal with this situation.As Delbert
