Chapter 305
Delbert saw Harriet'’s flushed ears and smiled.
When Delbert turned his head, he saw Opal still standing the sneaking glances at their every move.
His brows furrowed as he stared coldly at Opal. “Didn’t you say breakfast was ready? Why are you still standing here?” Opal left quickly and closed the door for them.
