Chapter 69 The Scheming Sister

“I don’t care. I never said those words. Nora is lying.”

Harriet mimicked Nora’s unreasonable behavior, putting her hands on her hips and glaring at Nora and Vernon, like an irritated pufferfish.

Nora, filled with rage, shot deliberate and pitiful looks in Delbert’s direction, hoping to gain his sympathy.

But Delbert remained indifferent. Since arriving at the house, he hadn’t spared her a single glance.

“Harriet, if you just tell Delbert the truth, he won’t blame you. Every girl has her first love.

“If you insist on denying this, then I can only apologize to you. I’m sorry, Harriet. Maybe it’s because you were so close to Vernon in the past that I misunderstood. Can you please stop being mad at me?” Nora feigned innocence and took all the blame upon herself.
