Chapter 42 Establishing Authority


    Unfortunately for Colleen, Delbert had seen through her hypocrisy.


    Ignoring the terror-stricken housekeeper, he gently looked at Harriet.


    “Harriet, how do you want her to meet her end?”


    Harriet blinked with feigned confusion, as if she couldn’tprehend what he meant.


    “| don’t want Colleen to die. | just want her to do her job and take good care of me!”


    Still holding grudges from her previous life, Harriet had no intention of letting Colleen go so easily.


    Aware of her intentions, Delbert squinted at Colleen.


    Colleen trembled in terror, sensing that her future life wouldn’t be


    easy.


    Her intuition was confirmed when Delbert issued an order. “Colleen did you hear what Harriet said? From today onwards, you will


    be responsible for her food, clothing, and daily needs. You will do everything yourself.


    “If she is unsatisfied even in the slightest, the depths of the sea will be your grave.”


    “Yes, Mr. Delbert!” Colleen nodded hastily, hoping for some relief.


    But Delbert’s next words drained the color from her face.


    “Now, go and cook for us.”


    “What?” Colleen wondered if she was hallucinating.

    It was preposterous! Back when she lived at Milton’s house, she was well taken care of by the servants and had the same food


    as the masters anddies.


    “| won''t repeat myself,” Delbert said sternly.


    As if sensing Colleen’s disrespect toward Harriet, Tucker bared its teeth and red at her with glowing eyes.


    Colleen was frightened to the core, afraid that the massive mastiff might lose control and devour her there and then.


    In the end, she could only slink away to the kitchen, resigned to preparing breakfast for Delbert and Harriet.All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Harriet watched with a hidden coldness in her eyes.


    Colleen had resided in Milton’s house for far too long, earning high praise from the servants. She got beyond herself, thinking


    that she could trample upon the real hostess of the house.


    How absurd!


    Delbert’s piercing gaze scanned all the servants, causing them to shiver.


    “You have witnessed Colleen’s fate. Anyone who disrespects H will meet the same end!”


    Delbert aimed to intimidate them and establish authority for Hal


    After this incident, no one dared to side with Colleen anymore.


    The servants knew all too well that Delbert was a man of his word They were prompted to quickly swear loyalty to both him and


    Harriet.


    With all the servants revolving around her, Harriet puffed out her chest proudly.


    It felt empowering to have someone back her up.

    Just then, a servant entered and announced, “Sir, Madam, Mr. Munoz


    is here!”


    Harriet’s eyes sparkled, a mischievous smile ying on her lips.
