Chapter 25 Arriving at the Island
When 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 mere anticipation of witnessing Bessie’s devastated expression the next day brought her immense joy.
“I'm happy because the weather is cold today,” she replied with a grin. Winter was coming, and the Munoz Group was on its way to bankruptcy. After taking care of Nora and Bessie, she would go on to deal with. Clifton.
The Munoz Group was the brainchild of her mother, and she would
take it back at all costs.
Cory glanced outside the window. It was a clear night with the moon. and stars in the sky. The breeze was gentle, and the weather was not cold at all.
Besides, what did a good mood have to do with the cold weather?
Then he thought of the message sent by his boss. “Let Harriet have her fun.”
So, he stopped dwelling on it.
This was a strange couple.
Soon, the traffic light turned green.
As the car slowly started moving, a gray van passed by them, car
Nora away.
The two cars went in different directions.
And they were headed toward different endings.
An hour and a half later, their car arrived at Delbert’s island.
The island was the property of his grandfather on his mother’s side.
Since the Carlson family found and reclaimed him, Delbert had been living in seclusion on this island.
Delbert’s two uncles had spread rumors in Meawood City that he was ugly and vicious.
Coupled with his deliberate disguise, he had been a transparent
person in both the Carlson family and in the city.
However, this insignificant man eventually became a dark horse and took over the Carlson Group.
Everyone, Harriet included, wanted to know how he did it.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Madam, here we are!”
Cory opened the door for Harriet and helped her with her luggage, leading her to Delbert’s villa. The housekeeper and the servants lined up at the gate.
The housekeeper, Colleen, flashed a disdainful look at the sight of Harriet.
The servants bowed. “Good evening, Madam!”
Colleen only nodded as a greeting.
This simpleton didn’t deserve her respect.
