Chapter 333
Harriet took out her phone and entered the office before looking down at the screen.
It was a text message from Delbert.
[I miss you. When you''re done, let’s have dinner together. I’lle pick you up.]
The simple yet affectionate message brightened Harriet’s mood a little.
They had only been separated for less than an hour, and Delbert already missed her.
She didn’t expect him to be so clingy, aside from his possessiveness.
Harriet tapped the screen of her phone and edited a reply.
[Sure! See youter!]
Harriet had just put down her phone when an executive deliberate tried to cause her trouble..
“Mrs. Carlson, the Munoz Group has always had strict discipline and does not allow employees to use their phones during
working hours. Vitors will be punished severely. As the daughter of the former CEO, you must be aware of this rule, right?” he
said.
“Moreover, now that you are the new chairman, you should lead by example. What do you think you should do?”
Harriet looked over at the executive, and she said nothing.
If she answered that she didn’t ept punishment, then the others

present would make a fuss and call her a spoileddy who meddled in thepany’s affairs. This would not be good for her and
Delbert’s reputation.
She didn’t want to admit her fault and ept punishment either.
So, she silently gazed at the executive until he got cold feet.
Harriet knew that even if she didn’t respond, ke would speak up for
her.
Sure enough, ke quickly stepped in.
“What''s the fuss?” he said, trying to smooth things over. “Harriet is still young, and she’s my niece and Delbert’s wife. Even
though she’s now the chairman, she’s just a young girl. She’s bound to make mistakes. How can you punish her? You should
apologize to her.”
The executive quickly apologized to Harriet. “Mrs. Carlson, I’m sorry. You''ve just joined thepany, and there are many rules
you don’t understand yet. It’s normal.”
Harriet furrowed her brows.
ke was defending her on the surface, while implicitly, he was smearing her reputation.
He could easily exin the situation. Yet he chose to bring up her rtionship with Delbert and insinuate that she got the job
throu nepotism.
At the same time, he was doubting her ability.
Harriet knew that her sudden arrival had made ke unable to fully control thepany, so he had to push her down.
‘Did he forget thepany was founded by my mother?’ She thought.
ke was narrow-minded and short-sighted. How could thepany survive under his control in the long run?
