Chapter 294 Harriet felt like the world was collapsing.


“| have to go to Imperium and find Delbert. | won’t let anything happe to him. Please take me there,” Harriet said, grabbing Cory’s shoulde


Cory tried to reassure her. “Madam, please calm down!”


“Delbert is in trouble. How can | calm down?” Harriet said in tears. This was the first time she had shown her vulnerability in front of an outsider.


“| must go to Imperium. Let’s go now, or Delbert will really be in danger. “Let's go and find him together!” Harriet said, trying to leave the island. She wanted to go to Imperium to find Delbert as soon as possible.


But Cory held her wrist, not allowing her to take a step away.


“I'm sorry, madam. Mr. Delbert instructed me that no matter what happens to him, | must never let anything happen to you. | must obey his orders and protect you. Please rest assured! | will find him,” he


said.


“How can | rest assured? Delbert has gone missing. Cory, please let me go to Imperium. I’m so worried about him!” Harriet pleaded bitterly.


Cory only kept saying sorry.


He believed that the news of Delbert’s disappearance must have spread throughout the entire Carlson family by now. Delbert’s two uncles were ready to take action, and the only safe


place for Harriet was Meawood City.


But Harriet didn’t want to stay there. She couldn’t put her mind at ease until she found Delbert and saw him safe.


“You are Delbert’s assistant. Now that Delbert is in trouble, how stay in Meawood City? | must go find him!” Harriet said anxiously.


Cory remained unmoved. “I’m sorry, madam. This is my promise Mr. Delbert, and | must keep it. Just stay on the island and leave


matter to me.”


Although Cory was not less worried than Harriet, he had to fulfill Delbert’s instructions to protect Harriet. She meant everything to Delbert.


And Cory had faith in Delbert’s resourcefulness. He would never put himself in danger.


He would be fine.


Perhaps this whole thing was just a trap he set up.


“Cory, you really disappoint me!” Harriet said. “Fine! Since you refuse to take me to find Delbert, I'll go by myself!”


She irritably turned around and was about to go downstairs.


Cory couldn't just let her go out and encounter danger. He quickly walked over and struck her neck with his hand. Harriet felt a pain in the back of her neck and then passed out.


Harriet had a dream in which Delbert was in trouble.


He stood in front of her, covered in blood. “Harriet, even if I’m not here, you must live well!”


But without him by her side, she couldn't live well at all.


After she was reborn, she only wanted to be with him forever.
