‘Isn’t that akin to devouring me alive?” Harriet thought.
“Hmph! You’re terrible. Opal and I were making chicken soup for you, but now I don’t have the strength to do anything.
“You always say you’ll support me, but when I got bullied just now, you did nothing,” Harriet grumbled, her eyes brimming with tears.
Her shoulders shook, and she looked as if she had suffered a great
injustice.
Her soft, tear-choked voice was like an electric current, striking
Delbert’s heart.
He carried Harriet to the center of the living room before setting her down, his gaze coldly sweeping over Cory.
“Cory, find out who bullied Harriet just now!”
After satisfying himself, a man naturally had to stand up for Ha
Before Cory could respond, Harriet pointed to Colleen, who was attempting to flee, and her accomplices.
“Delbert, it was Colleen and these bad people who bullied me.”
She nestled proudly in Delbert’s arms, looking like a spoiled child.

“I have elders and kids to look after. I can’t afford to lose this job, please, Mr. Delbert!” The others pleaded.
The workload was lighter here, and the pay and perks were better than elsewhere. They dreaded losing this cushy position, especially now that Delbert, president of the Carlson Group, presided over it.

With a dismissive gesture, Cory summoned the bodyguards to remove the maids gossiping about Harriet, escorting them off the

Ten times the penalty?
For her, that was a staggering amount.
Colleen felt dizzy. Despite her years of taking bribes from the mansion’s staff, relying on her connection to Milton, it was nowhere near enough to cover the steep penalty.
“Mr. Delbert, you can’t expel me. I’m with Milton. Without his orders, I won’t leave!” Colleen quivered, her voice faltering.
