After finally soothing Harriet, Delbert couldn’t resist picking her up and leaving the mountains.
Her tears threatened to flood the entire mountainside.
Seeing Tucker wanting to follow, Delbert stopped it with a whistle.
Tucker sat on the ground and hung its head in dejection.
Unable to bear leaving it behind, Harriet tugged at Delbert's sleeve and pleaded, “Tucker is lonely. Can we take him home?” “No!” Delbert rejected it flatly, worried that Tucker might cause trouble at home.
Harriet crinkled her nose and looked at him with tearful eyes.

Harriet beckoned to Tucker, who immediately ran over and nuzzled up against her, eliciting giggles from her. With Delbert and Tucker by her side, Harriet swaggered into the villa.
The servants respectfully greeted them, but when they noticed the imposing mastiff with a scarred face and blue eyes, they recoiled in
fear.
“Summon Colleen,” Delbert commanded, his demeanor carrying a chilling edge.
The servants hastened to fulfill his order.
Colleen was in her room nursing her swollen legs. She couldn’t
understand why she was experiencing such discomfort, and she cursed Harriet for her misfortunes.
“Colleen, something is wrong!”
Aservant rushed in to report, startling Colleen.
