Chapter 175

“Delbert, I’ve been waiting for you,” Harriet said, her eyes heavy with

sleep.

Delbert couldn’t help but chuckle. “Would you like to sleep when I

return?”

Caught off guard by his intense gaze, Harriet quickly lowered her eyes, her heart fluttering. “Delbert, I’ve prepared your bath.”

They hadn’t been so intimate on the island.

“No, I want to watch TV.” Harriet quickly refused.

But he persisted, mimicking her coyness. “Don’t you love me anymore? Can’t you grant me this small request?”

He loosened his grip on her hand.

After a moment of hesitation, she finally relented.

He pulled her closer, finding her flushed face endearing.
