Chapter 325
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon
Chapter 325 âWhy is he so stubborn?â Harriet thought.
During the cold war, Delbert didnât even call her to make peace. He used to do his best to coax her, but now all he did was avoid her.
Or maybe she went too far with her words that day.
Even Opal, who was usually slow on the uptake, noticed the strange atmosphere in the villa. Plus, Delbert hadnât come back for several days.
âMadam, did you have a fight with Mr. Delbert?â She cautiously asked.
âYeah!â Harriet replied weakly, not intending to hide it from Opal.
Opal thought for a moment and said, âMadam, this canât go on like this. Mr. Delbert hasnât come back for days. If another woman ta advantage of this situation...â
â| dare him!â Harriet widened her eyes.
Opal cleared her throat and continued, âMadam, thereâs something you donât know. Cory told me that a new secretary named Tara has joined Mr. Delbertâs company recently.
â| know her. She used to stay on the island for a while. | heard sheâs an orphan. Mr. Delbert rescued her from human traffickers, and she idolized him. But later, Mr. Delbert sent her to take care of Ms. Vicky in Imperium.
âTara is very clever. She only helped Mr. Milton once to cure his headache, and Mr. Milton took her as his goddaughter. | think she managed to work at Mr. Delbertâs company with Mr. Miltonâs help.
âShe is a threat. You need to be carefullâ
After finishing her words, Opal waited for Harrietâs reaction.
Harriet didnât expect that there was such a history between Tara and Delbert.
Based on their encounter at Flavor Fusion, Harriet could tell that Tara was not a good person. She must have come prepared.
Tara was working at Delbertâs company, which increased the possibility of her sabotaging their relationship while they were in a cold war.
âDamn it! Harriet cursed inwardly.
After taking care of Nora, she was facing a more formidable foe.
Harriet felt an unprecedented sense of crisis.
Although she didnât think Delbert would betray her, she couldn't help letting her thoughts run wild.
As the trick worked, Opal asked, âMadam, do you want to call Mr. Delbert?â
âYes! | must call him!â Harriet said.
She quickly took out her phone and called Delbert. After the line was through, she took a deep breath and asked, âWhat are you doing right now?â
After a brief silence, Delbert replied, âWorking.â
Harriet continued to ask, âWhy havenât you come home?â
âToo busy,â Delbert replied indifferently.
Harriet didnât give up. âAre you mad at me?â
âNo,â Delbert replied.
«
Harriet fell silent. Delbertâs cold attitude and his denial of being angry contradicted each other In fact, Delbert was having a meeting. When Harrietâs call came through, he immediately answered it.
Even though they were in a cold war, he would never miss Harrietâs calls
