“Do not drink that glass of wine. Delbert, don’t...” Harriet murmured, her tears staining the pillow. Her words made Delbert’s heart tighten, and doubt was etched on his face.
That was from their last lives, but Harriet knew.
‘Does it mean Harriet is also...’ Harriet pondered.
“Delbert!” Harriet cried out, waking up.
Her breathing was heavy, and her eyes were hazy. Panic was all over her face.
Delbert immediately pulled her into his arms and soothed her gently. ” It's okay, Harriet. It was just a nightmare. I’m here. I've always been by your side.”
Harriet laid her eyes on Delbert’s face and seemed to recognize him. Her hand gripped his shirt collar as she tentatively called out,” Delbert?” “It's me.” Delbert nodded lightly.

Delbert was thinking about how to get Harriet to eat a bit more when the doorbell suddenly rang.
Opal went to open the intercom, and after a brief conversation, she turned around and reported. “Sir, Miss Nora is here.” Delbert’s face instantly fell. He glanced at the composed Harriet and responded coldly, “Send her in!”
Harriet sat quietly without making a sound.

‘It's not fair!’ She thought.

“What brings you here?” Delbert asked, his icy stare making her skin crawl.
