Chapter 206


    Just then a male voice sounded out of ce


    “Haret” Vemon called out from not far away.


    He slowly approached Harriet,pletely ignoring Delbert’s presence.


    He was now the head of the Morton family and had no reason to be afraid of Delbert anymore.


    With a gentle smile on his face, he acted as if he and Harriet were close. The guests locked at them curiously.


    When Vernon walked up to Harriet he pretended to be surprised and nced at Delbert.


    “Mr. Delbert, you’re here too. You know, | used to apany Harriet to Nora’s birthday parties,” he said.


    Then he shifted the topic and deliberately mentioned Harriet’s dress.” This dress looks quite expensive. Did Mr. Delbert buy it for


    you?


    “Mr. Delbert is rich and influential. It''s no wonder your parents wanted


    you to marry him, and you did.


    “But even so, | am still your Vernon. You can tell me if you need anything.”


    Hamet couldn’t help but roll her eyes.


    Since when did Vernon learn to speak like Nora? She thought.


    His words may not seem rted, but if one thought about them carefully, he could tell what Vernon was trying to imply. Harriet


    married Delbert because of money, and the one she liked was Vernon.


    The guests understood the meaning behind Vernon''s words and began to whisper. The once-quiet hall became noisy again.


    And this was exactly what Vernon wanted.

    a big


    viin!”


    She stared at Vernon with icy eyes, and her tone was chilly.


    “How much my dress costs is none of your business!” she added with


    disdain.


    “You know so much about it. Do you also want to buy one to wear back home? | didn’t expect you to have such interest.”


    The banquet hall erupted in mockingughter.


    The guests imagined Vernon, who usually wore a well-tailored suit, wearing a dress. They tried their best to hold back their

    Harriet looked at the blushing Vernon and smirked.


    Vernon could practice for thousands of years and still couldn’t win against her in a word game.


    Vernon looked at the disdainful expressions of the people around him, his face turning even redder. He wanted to exin, but

    failed him.


    The surrounding mockeries continued to echo, and Vernon was.


    infuriated.


    ‘When did Harriet be so sharp-tongued?’ He pondered.


    It seemed that Nora didn’t lie to him. Harriet had been pretending to
