The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon by Cheryl Rice novel Chapter 2

Harriet sneered inwardly. 

In her previous life, she had been foolish and had refused to marry Delbert after hearing false rumors about him. 

She had cried and made a scene, only to end up being drugged by Bessie and sent to Delbert’s island that very night. 

But now she was smarter and knew how to deal with the scheming mother and daughter. 

For the time being, she would play dumb and play along. 

A cold, bloodthirsty look flashed through her watery eyes, but Harriet concealed it well. 

She turned to Bessie and Nora, speaking with a silly smile. “Mom, Nora, do you think I look good like this?” 

Nora flashed a jealous look when she saw Harriet’s delicate face after the makeup was removed. 

She squeezed her fingers and hypocritically praised, “Yes, you are.” 

Nora forgot that before Harriet became retarded, she had been a beautiful girl with superior intelligence. 

But now, in everyone’s mind, the eldest daughter of the Munoz family was nothing but an ugly and useless person. 

Nora, on the other hand, became the top beauty in Meawood City and a genius in medicine. 

“Harriet, you are beautiful, and you should marry Delbert.” 

Harriet giggled with their praise, seemingly delighted. 

Her quick agreement left Nora doubtful. 

“But what about Vernon?” 

Nora asked intentionally. “Don’t you like Vernon the most?” 

Harriet pouted as if she were angry. “You just said I look good. If I’m so beautiful, I should marry Delbert because I want to enjoy a life surrounded by servants.” 

Seeing her foolish look, Nora and Bessie couldn’t help but sneer. 

At the end of the day, Harriet was a fool, thinking that she was going to have a good life with the Carlson family.
