Nora turned to glare at Harriet right away. Her face contorted to the extreme, but she couldn’t resist the dizziness that overwhelmed her mind.
Harriet unabashedly met Nora’s gaze with a hint of disdainful smile on her lips.
Did Nora want to harm her?

Lula was the first to notice Nora’s unusual condition.
She frowned in confusion as she asked, “Nora, are you alright?”
“I'm fine. | just feel a bit unwell. I’m sorry, I-l need to leave first. You guys enjoy your drinks.”
Nora pinched her throbbing brow and tried to leave before she lost all sense of reason, fearing Harriet’s scheming. But before leaving, she shot a fierce glare at Harriet.
She absolutely couldn’t afford to humiliate herself in front of Harriet or let Delbert see her in this state. No one stopped Nora from leaving. After all, her previous arrogance had offended.

Harriet held onto Nora’s arm and gently swayed her, which made Nora’s head. spin even more.
Nora felt like she was losing control of the feverish sensation in her body.
She got irritated and gritted her teeth, “Harriet, if you want to drink, you can drink with Mr, Carlson or Mr. Welch. I’m really not feeling well. Please let me go.”
At this moment, her patience had reached its limit.
The sound of Harriet’s chattering was unbearable to her.
She really wanted to get rid of Harriet.
“Please, Nora, | rarely gets to see you. Stay here with me!”

Nora was on the brink of losing her composure and couldn’t take it anymore.
She shouted at Harriet, feeling her sanity crumble.
At the same time, that strange heat surged through her body in an instant, overwhelming all her rationality. It was at this moment that Harriet raised an eyebrow slightly.
Now she could let Nora go.
It was perfect. She was also tired of acting.. “Fine, please don’t be mad at me.” Harriet pouted, looking pitiful.
In the past, if Delbert had seen her like this, he would have been deeply concerned and would have held her in his arms to comfort her immediately.
But now that he knew Harriet was pretending to be weak, he naturally wouldn’t expose it.
Instead, he watched her every move with pleasure in his eyes.
