Chapter 53 Repeated Calls

At Delbert’s villa, they had dinner together.

Then Delbert headed to his study to handle some work, while Harriet skipped upstairs to rest.

Lounging on the bed, she picked up her phone and was greeted with a flood of missed calls, all from Vernon.

She had been foolishly infatuated with him, believing he was the best person in the world and eagerly following his every whim.

Even a fleeting smile from him would bring her immense joy.

Little did she know, he had been using her all along, and his heart belonged to Nora.

He merely enjoyed the feeling of being admired by Harriet.

Now Harriet was no longer that fool who blindly followed him.

Vernon must be driven mad by her repeated rejection of his calls.
