The Darling of the Paranoid Tycoon by Cheryl Rice novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 An Eating Struggle 

Harriet simply lifted the quilt, sat up, pouted, and stared at him, Delbert, you’re a rotten apple. I don’t care about your kisses!” 

Seeing her glaring at him from the bed, Delbert, instead of getting angry, smiled, “Since you don’t care, why refuse to eat, eh?” 

Then, surprisingly, he took out a cigarette from his pocket, sat on the nearby sofa, and lit it, ignoring Harriet’s presence. 

“I’m not hungry!”

Harriet raised her chin, snorted, glanced at the smoking Delbert, and said, “Delbert, can you please not smoke? It’s not good for your health! 

Delbert looked at her with a playful expression. “You’re caring for me?” 

At this point, Opal came in with steaming food. “Miss Harriet, eat some. Don’t let yourself go hungry.” 

Harriet lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, “Opal, I’m t hungry. Take it away.” 

“Uh…” Opal was somewhat in a dilemma. 

“Leave it here,” Delbert gave his word. 

“Yes.” Opal put the food down and immediately left the room, not wanting to disturb the two’s private time together.

“Do you want to eat the food by yourself? Or do you want me to feed you?” Delbert threatened, a layer of gloom darkening his determined and handsome face. 

Harriet instantly took the steaming food from his hand and obediently started eating under his seemingly angry gaze. 

Delbert watched her eat until she had finished half of the food. Only 

then did he nod in satisfaction and leave the room. 

Then, he went to the guest bedroom and closed the door. 

Every time he saw the girl’s red lips opening and closing, he had an impulse to throw caution to the wind and kiss her. 

He must be crazy! Harriet had just recovered. How could he entertain such thoughts?! 

The water in the bathroom splashed steadily. Delbert took off his clothes, walked to the shower, and tilted his head back, letting the warm water drops run down from head to toe, but it couldn’t extinguish the flames in his heart. 

As for Harriet, after eating to her full, she knew Delbert had left as 

usual. 

These days, he was always like this-sometimes warm and 

sometimes cold, making her more uncomfortable than during their cold war. 

She thought their relationship would improve after the incident at 

noon, but it seemed she was delusional. 

Harriet quietly took the tableware to the kitchen, returned to her room,

The next day, Opal woke her up. 

“Miss Harriet, breakfast is ready.”
