The Broken Warrior’s Daughter by Cooper
Chapter 656

"Delbert, you goof."

At her words, Delbert's eyes lit up instantly.

He had finally managed to make his beloved laugh.

The two of them remained quietly nestled together for a while.

After some time passed, Harriet suddenly remembered something and asked, "Delbert, why have we been married for so long, yet you've never told me that I'm Yvonne?

"Do you know that I haven't been able to sleep well because of this name?"

With these words, Delbert became intrigued.

He glanced down at Harriet in his arms and suddenly felt curious about what she had been thinking at that time.

"Then tell me the reason. I'm quite curious. Why couldn't you sleep well because of this?"

Delbert knowingly asked, just teasing Harriet.

Blushing slightly, Harriet appeared somewhat embarrassed.

Delbert's lips curled into a mischievous smile.

He wanted Harriet to willingly reveal it herself.

"You clearly know the reason. Why are you asking me?"

"I don't know everything, Harriet. I'm not as clever as you. If you don't tell me, how could I figure it out?"

Delbert continued to playfully prod her.

Harriet was somewhat annoyed, but she found herself unable to be angry with the man in front of her.

Pinching the man's waist, Harriet pouted slightly and complained, "I used to think that Yvonne was your first love you could never forget, but now I realize that Yvonne is actually me.

"It's a bit embarrassing. It seems like you deliberately want to see me jealous.

"You've been keeping this secret until now. Humph! You did that on purpose, Delbert!"

Seeing Harriet's adorable expression, Delbert couldn't help but shake his head.

His concealment was only to prevent Harriet from recalling those sad memories.

But now that everything was out in the open, there was no need for him to hide anything anymore.

"Why are you silent? Could it be that you're really doing this on purpose, intentionally trying to make me jealous?"

Harriet propped herself up, her eyes showing some reluctance.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest, giving off a hint of a scolding tone.

Delbert saw her like this and pinched her cheek.

Then, he lifted Harriet sideways and planted a gentle kiss on her cheek.

"Silly girl, what are you talking about? How could I bear to make my wife jealous? The vows we made at our wedding weren't just empty words. How could you doubt that my heart belongs to someone else?" This teasing completely embarrassed Harriet, causing her face to flush.

She buried her head deep into Delbert's embrace and fell silent.

Yes, she should trust Delbert. In any case, she should trust him.

Afterward, Delbert took Harriet back to the car and headed home.

As they lay facing each other in bed, for some reason, they began reminiscing about their childhood.

"How time flies. When we first met, it feels like just yesterday."

Delbert couldn't help but sigh deeply.

He then reached out and gently touched Harriet's cheek.

Harriet smiled, her lips curling up slightly.

She rubbed her cheek against Delbert's palm and joined him in reminiscing.

"Yes, I never thought that when I was young and insisted on marrying you, my wish would come true. It seemed that destiny brought us back together. Delbert, thank you for always being willing to be by my side."
