Chapter 288
“Thank you!” Harriet said.
Delbert chuckled and indulgently looked at her. “You are my wife, so it’s only right for me to protect you.” Cory found their display of affection annoying.
“I'll go and try to find the man in black,” he said, leaving the space for
Delbert and Harriet.
Instead of staying there and watching them show affection, he might as well go to work.
When Delbert took Harriet home, he was surprised to find Clifton on
the island.
Clifton forced his way in, begging Harriet and Delbert to return the Munoz Group to him.
Clifton had been detained by the police for more than twenty days because of the scandals reported by his subordinates. When he came out, he heard that the Munoz Group had gone bankrupt and had been acquired by Harriet and merged into the Carlson Group.
If the Munoz Group was gone, he would have no chance of survival!
He resented Harriet for pretending to be foolish, but he had to come and beg her.
“Harriet, Mr. Delbert, | was wrong. Please give me another chance and return the Munoz Group to me,” he pleaded. Harriet found his miserable state laughable.

If he had known this would happen, why did he do those despicable things to her and her mother in the first place?
She would never forgive this heartless and treacherous man.
Harriet sneered and went downstairs to the villa’s entrance. Clifton was overjoyed to see her.
“Harriet, | was wrong to mistreat you in the past, but I’m really
desperate. Can you ask Mr. Delbert to spare me and return the Munoz Group to me? I’ve realized my mistake,” he said. “| was dead wrong. | shouldn’t have helped Nora and Bessie deal with you. I’m really sorry. Can you give me another chance?”
Now that Bessie had been admitted to a mental hospital and Nora had been sentenced to life imprisonment for escaping and causing harm, Clifton was truly desperate and could only come to beg Harriet, the foolish daughter he had once despised the most.
Delbert followed behind Harriet and wrapped his arm around her.
Harriet leaned against his embrace and clenched her fists. Her eye which reflected Clifton’s hunched figure, were blazing with hatred.
It was too late for Clifton to regret it now. He was naive to think that his pleas would work on her. “| can return the Munoz Group to you!” Harriet said after a moment d
silence.
Clifton raised his head in surprise. “Thank you, Harriet! | knew you wouldn’t be so heartless to me!”
Harriet smiled at him, but it was filled with coldness. “I won’t do anything to you anymore, but you must reflect on your mistakes.” “| will!” Clifton nodded and happily left the island.

Harriet watched him leave and snorted. “When did you become so
naive?
Probably because he has suffered too many blows, Delbert said
