Chapter 59
The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon
Chapter 59 A Feud âBad guy! You canât bully Delbert!â
Harriet shot a glare at Kenny and pouted in anger, creating an adorable rather than intimidating look.
Harriet, devoid of any makeup, displayed her most authentic self. As clean as a white camellia, she could simply make a manâs heart flutter.
Kenny narrowed his eyes, lowering his voice as he commanded, âGo away!â
He refused to stoop so low as to attack a defenseless girl.
â| won't leave!â
Harriet stood her ground with a scowl.
âGrandpa, come out! Someone is bullying Delbert!â Harriet bellowed, realizing that arguing further with Kenny was futile.
The sound roused Milton from his rest upstairs. He swiftly made his way to the balcony with his cane, observing the standoff between Kenny and Delbert below.
Understanding Delbertâs nature, he knew that it must be Kenny deliberately causing trouble.
He leaned heavily on his crutches and thundered, âKenny, why did you cause trouble as soon as you came back?â
â| didnât, Grandpa. | was just joking with Delbert,â Kenny explained, glaring at Harriet, who had dared to involve Milton.
Harriet stared back defiantly.
Delbert observed the scene with a smile.
While Kenny meant nothing to him, Harrietâs act of protection touched him.
He chose not to intervene and enjoyed the feeling of being shielded by Harriet.
Miltonâs gaze remained fixed on Kenny.
âIf you were really joking, why would Harriet say that? She will not lie!â
âIt's alright,â Delbert interjected before taking Harrietâs hand. â Grandpa, weâre going back.â
As Delbertâs car departed from the manor, Milton continued to stare at Kenny, who stood under the tree.
âYou brat, come up here!â
After Kenny ascended the stairs and entered Miltonâs room, a resounding crack echoed through the air as the crutch struck him hard on the back.
âYou wretch! How dare you bully Delbert!â Miltonâs eyes blazed with anger as he admonished Kenny.
Before Kenny could respond, he was struck again by the cane.
â| donât understand. You had high hopes for me in the beginning. Why did you end up giving the Carlson Group to Delbert?â
âAsk your father!â Milton said. âI hope this is the last time. If 1 see you being disrespectful to Delbert again, your entire family will suffer.â
Milton warned before dismissing him. âGet out!â
Kenny unhappily stared at him.
He got out of the room, only to find his father standing outside.
When he descended the stairs, Shawn Carlson intercepted him.
âKenny, you must not cause trouble at this critical moment. There is still one month before Delbert takes office. Just hold on a little longer. Trust me, the company and everything will be yours. I'll make sure of it.â
