The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon by Cheryl Rice

Chapter 129

“But these things are clearly secrets between Nora and me. How could Lula know about them?

“Nora, did you deliberately incite her to slander me?”

Harriet glared at Nora, looking unapproachable.

In her previous incarnation, scenes of Nora bullying and slandering her were still vivid in her mind. At that time, she was a fool and didn’t know how to defend herself for things she hadn’t done.

Because those who were watching only recognized visible physical wounds as injuries, but they didn’t realize that hurtful words also caused harm.

Even when she wasn’t a fool and could argue back, after speaking out, they wouldn’t sympathize with her. Instead, they would treat her humiliation by Nora as a topic for post–dinner entertainment.

The only one who truly sympathized with her was Delbert.

Even though she knew that Delbert’s sympathy was based on his affection for Yvonne, she still couldn’t help but fall for him.

In her previous incarnation, Delbert would gently stroke her head and talk to her in a gentle voice when she was hurt and upset, “Harriet, cry if it hurts. I’ll always be by your side!”
