Chapter 102
Harriet waited patiently after Delbert left. The momentary guise of compliance vanished, and her demeanor transformed. A hint of cunning appeared in her eyes.
If not for being confined by Delbert, she would have sought out Marc.
‘How dare he mistreat Molly? What kind of man is he?’ She snorted inwardly.
Harriet eyed the handcuffs and shackles on her hands and feet, smiling dangerously.
‘Does Delbert really think he can confine me with a few iron chains?’ She thought.
He underestimated her.
Unlike in her previous life, she effortlessly removed the handcuffs and shackles:
Her graceful steps led her to the bathroom, where she freshened and put them back on, as if nothing had happened. She continued t lie in bed, awaiting Delbert’s return.
Was she merely a caged bird for him? Asubtle smile played on Harriet's lips, her eyes glistening with mischief. She had sustenance and a caring husband, so being a caged bird wasn’t that bad.
As Delbert descended from the second floor, he spotted Marc entering the villa along with the light. The man exuded a cold, noble
uuru.
Delbert’s expression turned frosty.
“Marc, you better hope you have something important to tell me!”
Marc lifted his head, appearing somewhat puzzled.
He racked his brain but couldn't pinpoint how he had offended Delbert.

Marc noticed Delbert’s protective stance toward Harriet but couldn't discern if it was a positive or negative sign.
He hoped their situation wasn’t like that between Molly and him.
Putting aside his complex thoughts, Marc addressed Delbert, “I have something to share with you. It might be good news.”
“Spit it out!” Delbert frowned, visibly impatient.
He hoped that Marc would not disrupt him for too long.
“Yuri told me you had a clash with Harriet because of Vernon. Let me show you something that explains it all,” Marc said, taking out his phone to play a video.
The visuals and audio were crystal clear, with Vernon chatting with Nora in a box of Holy Night. Their topic was about Delbert and Harriet.
Vernon stated, “Harriet thinks she can leave me for Delbert? Not happening! You see, | just engineered things to make Delbert see me hugging Harriet. That wrecked their relationship.”
Beside him, Nora echoed with a smile, “Let’s celebrate our win!” “Need my help dealing with Vernon?” Marc asked Delbert, watching him closely. Delbert didn’t answer. His eyes were fixed on the video, and his hands were clenched. The air around him was chilling.
