Chapter 55 Family Dinner
“Delbert, what's wrong?”
Harriet couldn’t help but ask when she saw Delbert freezing. “Nothing.”
Delbert shook his head and continued to zip up.
The sound of the zipper echoed in the spacious cloakroom, and Harriet couldn’t help but feel flustered, desperate to go out for some fresh air.
But Delbert wouldn't let her go. He folded her into his arms and nibbled on her earlobe. “Harriet, why do you blush so easily?” he whispered seductively.
‘Isn't it because of you?’ Harriet groaned inwardly and then giggled.
“Delbert, get too close. It tickles!”
Taking advantage of the moment, she pushed Delbert away and scurried downstairs like a little rabbit. It wasn’t until she left the room that she breathed a sigh of relief, feeling alive again. Delbert watched her flee with amusement.
Then, he followed suit, step by step.
Milton’s house had a history of over a hundred years.
It sat in the southeastern corner of the city, where the land price was
exorbitant.
It was safe to say that the residents there were either wealthy or noble.
Among them, the Carlson family was the most prominent.
The black Ferrari slowly ran toward the tranquil manor, which covered one thousand acres. Eventually, it came to a steady halt in front of a luxurious mansion.
This six-story building could be considered the grandest and most opulent in Meawood City.
Only a residence of such grandeur befitted its owner, the former president of Carlson Group and the current leader of the Carlson family.
Harriet had always known that the Carlson family was affluent, but she never expected them to be this wealthy.
In her previous life, due to deception and her constant resistance toward Delbert, he never took her along to any family gatherings.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Now witnessing it in person, she was utterly astounded.
To say the least, the entire city of Meawood City revolved around the Carlson family.
As they arrived at the entrance, the expansive lawn, stretching over ten meters, was already occupied by luxury cars. Under the sunlight, the bronze doors gleamed, and two rows of servants stood impeccably at attention.
As Delbert’s car came to a halt, the housekeeper approached respectfully. “Mr. Delbert, Miss Harriet, the elder is waiting for you in the hall.”
Delbert nodded, and the housekeeper immediately led them into the
Viu.
Everyone else in the family had already gathered in the hall, awaiting their arrival.
Entering the hall, they were greeted by a sight of opulence and elegance, akin to being in a palace. At the center of the hall stood a five-meter-long dining table.
It was adorned with exquisite dishes, and the members of the Carlson family were all seated. Milton occupied the seat of honor, with his two sons on each side next to him.
However, their distant relationship with Delbert was apparent. Upon seeing Delbert and Harriet enter, they merely nodded without
displaying any joy. As Harriet stepped into the hall, her keen eyes immediately caught sight of someone.
