Chapter 84 A Beautiful Fairy
If not for the slender beam of pure moonlight occasionally filtering through the branches, she would have blended entirely into the night, like a beautiful fairy under the moonlight.
Harriet! That was Harriet! “Harriet!”
At this moment, Delbert’s eyes brimmed with ecstasy as he regained what he had lost. He hurried over to the figure beneath the tree.
Upon hearing the familiar voice, the lady with a murky mind weakly lifted her head. She gazed deeply in the direction of the approaching Delbert, her beautiful watery eyes filled with disbelief.
Over a decade had passed, and he had grown up and matured significantly.
“Are you all right, Harriet? I'll take you back immediately!” Delbert said realizing his voice was terribly hoarse. Soon he noticed something amiss.
Sitting on the dirty ground, Harriet was drenched with several
scratches and bloodstains on her delicate face.
“Why did you get hurt, Harriet? It’s all my fault. | shouldn’t have left you alone!”
Seeing Harriet in such a state, Delbert furrowed his brow deeply, his heart throbbing as if clenched by a big hand. No matter how angry he was, he shouldn’t have abandoned his little girl!

“Harriet, what's wrong?”
Facing her strange gaze, Delbert was worried and bewildered.

“Harriet, you remember who | am, right?” Delbert pressed in happy
surprise.
A blinding flashlight beam shone upon them.
It was Cory leading a group of servants who had found them.
“Mr. Delbert, Miss Harriet!”
“Ask them to go back and prepare warm water. Harriet is injured,” Delbert instructed urgently.
But when he turned to look at her again, Harriet lowered her head and put her hand on her head. Her face was filled with mud and traces of blood, and her teeth clenched tightly as if she was enduring immense pain.
“Are you okay, Harriet? Come on, let me carry you back!”
