Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia) novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103 

Kenneth said. “The Carnegie family seems alright. Are you getting along well 

“You already gave them instructions. How could they not be?” Ophelia thought, “They have to be nice because of Kenneth. didn’t they? 

Kenneth said, “I only spoke to Mr. Theo” 

Ophelia paused mid–sip of her smoothie. “Wait, so you’re saying Mrs. Carnegie and the others don’t know about us?” 

“Maybe, but it’s possible Mr. Theo mentioned it Kenneth’s eyes were fixed on Ophelia like he couldn’t get enough. 

Ophelia chewed on the fruits, her lips pouting slightly, cheeks puffing up like a little squirrel. 

Deep down. Ophelia was perfectly aware of how people treated her. After all, she had learned the hard way in her last life. This time, Ophelia wasn’t about to open her heart so easily. If even her own family, bound by blood, had used and discarded her, what could she expect from these people, tied only by convenience and profit? 

It was best not to take them too seriously. Just as Ophelia swallowed the fruit, Kenneth kissed her. 

Ophelia thought Kenneth would stop quickly, considering they were in the office. But no–he only grew bolder, leaving her breathless, She said, “Kenneth, this is the office. 

“I know, Kenneth replied. 

Ophelia tensed in Kenneth’s arms, her eyes darting nervously toward the door, terrified someone might burst in at any 

moment. 

Kenneth held Ophelia’s head in place, refusing to let her get distracted. He gently stroked her hair like he was calming a ruled cat. The more she stiffened, the more mischievous he became, chuckling softly against her lips 

Ophelia thought. He is so shameless.” 

Just then a knock came at the door. “Mr. Sinclair, Mr. Patrick is here.” 

Ophelia’s entire body trembled uncontrollably from the tension, shrinking into Kenneth’s arms as if trying to become 

invisible. 

Fortunately, this time, Mark was smart enough not to barge in 

“Should I hide somewhere?” Ophelia asked, worried about causing trouble for Kenneth… 

Ophelia glanced at the upstairs lounge, but the staircase was made of transparent glass. If she went up now, Patrick, who was outside, might see her. Then, her eyes drifted to the space under the desk. 

“No need.” Kenneth said. 

“I’m just checking on my brother. Why can’t I come in?” Patrick’s voice rang out from beyond the door. 

Kenneth sat back in his wheelchair, his expression returning to its usual indifference.. 

The office door swung open from the outside. 

Patrick, pushed in by a bodyguard, sucered. “Fresh out of the hospital and already on a business trip. You really are working yourself to the bone for the Sinclair family’s empire, huh?” 

Ophelia had Patrick figured out–he loved getting under peoples skin. His words were a nasty dig, as if Kenneth was nothing

Chapter 103 

more than a disposable tool „slaving away for the Sinclair family 

Ophelia’s gaze turned icy as she looked at Patrick in the wheelchair. 

Patrick noticed there was someone else in the room. He looked Ophelia, scanning her like an object. He smirked slyly “Well, well so you’ve started fooling around with women now? He thought, I gotta admit, this bastard has a decent taste. 

Patrick said, “You’re young. Why waste your time with a bastand You should be with me. I’m the eldest son in the Sinclair family. Look at the guy next to you. He won’t last much longer. Best to find yourself a new branch to hang on before this one snaps.” 

Ophelia smiled, though her eyes were sharp as ice, “Mr. Patrick, your mouth is still as foul as ever. Seems like that injection you got at the hospital was a waste” 

Patrick’s eyes narrowed. He was puzzled. Meeting Ophelia’s inns ent, doe–like gaze, a realization hit him–she was the nurse from the hospital. “Damn it, it’s you?” 

With one leg left, your mouth is still filthy. You’re just asking for trouble” Ophelia’s gaze fell on the gun under the desk. She had the wild urge to take Patrick’s other leg 

Patrick’s greatest insecurity was his missing leg. Her words cut derp Kage surged through him as he tried to stand, but his body failedHum. His eyes blazed with murderous intent. “You bitch You’re only good enough to- 

“Bang” A gunshot rang out, and a bullet tore through Patrick’s other leg. 

Patrick froze, his eyes wide in horror as he looked toward Kenneth, who had not only fired the shot but was now standing 

Kenneth said. “If you didn’t w 

want your leg, all you had to do was say 

1. so. 

Patrick looked down at the bleeding hole in his calf, and the delayed wave of pain hit him, making it impossible for him to think. His agonized scream filled the office. “Kill him….“. 

At this moment, Caleb and the others burst through the door, guns pointed at Patrick’s bodyguards. 

The room was locked in a tense standoff. 

Patrick cursed “You you bastard Filthy illegitimate scum! How dare you lay a hand on me- 

“Bang” Another shot rang out, this time from Ophelia, who had picked up the gun under the desk. The sound was deafening 

silencer. 

The bullet hit Patrick’s leg again. Ophelia batted her lashes innocently, a fleeting glint of menace in her eyes. “Oops, my bad. The gun misfired.“. 

Kenneth took her gun hand in his, gently enveloping her fingers with his own. “Does your hand hurt?” 

“Mmm, Ophelia murmured. Her already pure and captivating delicate face now looked even more fragile, making Kenneth’s protective instincts soar. 

Caleb glanced over casually. He thought, ‘Is this gentle, delicate girl the same one who had just fired off a bullet like a boss?
