Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia) novel Chapter 344

Chapter 344 

4 

The next morning, Ophelia opened her eyes and found herself waking up at Rosewood Manor, “Last night…” 

“You fell asleep, so I brought you back here.” Kenneth noticed she wasn’t sleeping well last night, worry creasing, her brow So, he called Mark to bring the campervan and drove them back to Rosewood Manor. 

She was just too exhausted last night. Plus, with Kenneth by her side, she didn’t remember being moved at all. 

“Go back to sleep,” Kenneth said, holding her close. 

the afternoon, after everything in Dellanex was arranged, she accompanied Kenneth to the company, 

The date for going to Milagia was fast approaching. 

At Dellanex Private International Airport, Eric was healing from his injuries and was assisting Ray in loading the luggag onto the plane. 

The atmosphere inside the cabin was somewhat heavy. It seemed the closer they got to their destination, the more troubled Kenneth felt. 

Ophelia knew all he was thinking about and understood his stress. So, during those days, she was very indulgent with him 

about sex. 

Their fingers interlocked, Ophelia could feel the chill of his palm. “Get some sleep. You didn’t rest well last night.” 

“OK.” Kenneth closed his eyes, but sleep seemed out of reach. Yet, to ease the worries of Ophelia beside him, he kept his eyes shut tight. 

After a 12–hour flight, the plane landed in Milagia. Ronin was already waiting for them at the airport. 

His amber eyes were crystal clear in the sunlight, but the dark circles beneath them were glaringly apparent. 

The entire ride to the hospital was tense. Even though Ronin tried to liven it up, it remained extremely serious. 

“Oh right, Ivy came looking for me,” Ronin said from the passenger seat, glancing back. “But I was in a meeting at that time and didn’t get to see her, so she left.” 

Ronin’s words were basically redundant, and Kenneth’s face showed no trace of surprise.

Kenneth’s hospital room was located in the rear. It was in a two–story villa with dedicated nurses and doctors. 

After resting for a night, he would undergo a full pre–surgery checkup the following day. Ophelia stayed by Kenneth’s side, never leaving him for even a moment. 

Late at night, the light in the expert’s office was still on as they continued to review the surgery plan for the day after 

tomorrow. 

Meanwhile, the light was also on in Kenneth’s room. He lay his head on Ophelia’s lap, gazing at her intently. “Honey, you’re so beautiful.” 

In his eyes, Ophelia was stunning, pure, and innocent. At the same time, she showed a confident and free–spirited nature. “When did you fall for me?” Kenneth asked.

Ophelia rolled her eyes thoughtfully. “Maybe I fell for you in my previous life.” 

Kenneth let out a low chuckle. “Did I die with you in my arms in my previous life? Is that why you can’t leave me now?” 

Ophelia tilted her head, looking seriously at Kenneth resting on her lap. He guessed right. The two of them just stared at each other for a long time. 

Kenneth’s mouth curved into a weak smile. “If I had come back for you sooner, maybe I could have been with you longer.” 

Ophelia’s heart trembled slightly, her hand resting on his cheek. “I wasn’t pretty as a kid. If you had found me back then, you’d have probably disliked me at first glance.” 

No, that would never happen.” Kenneth stared at her unblinkingly. “Honey, if… I mean, if…” 

“I know what you’re about to say, and I don’t want to hear any what–ifs,” Ophelia replied. 

She thought, ‘He wants me to live well if he’s not around anymore, right? It’s impossible. 

She clenched her other hand, gritting her teeth and holding back the tears in her eyes. She lifted her head, avoiding looking at Kenneth in her arms. 

He said, “Do you think I’m about to say something sappy? I mean, if I die, I want you to stay single for the rest of your life without finding another man, got it? Or else…” 

Ophelia took a deep breath, her lashes fluttering. “Or else what?” 

“Or else, I’ll haunt you in your dreams,” Kenneth said fiercely. 

Ophelia thought, ‘Does he really think I’ll be scared?‘ She chuckled lightly, “Kenneth, if you die, I’m going to cuckold you.” Ophelia said while gently touching his hair. She said this just to stimulate him. 

“I dare you,” Kenneth said. 

“Just wait and see.” Ophelia stared defiantly at him. 

Because of her words, he was determined to stay alive. Kenneth stood up and pushed her onto the bed. Ophelia decided to indulge him once more. 

***** 

Before the surgery, Kenneth needed to undergo two more tests. 

For convenience, he changed into a blue and white striped hospital gown. However, his tall frame made the sleeves and pant legs look short. 

Even though it looked a bit funny, with that face, he still appeared handsome. It turned out someone could actually make a hospital gown look attractive. 

“Go on in for your tests. I’ll be waiting outside the door,” Ophelia said. It wasn’t suitable for her to accompany him for the, 

tests. 

Her forced smile faded as soon as he went inside. Leaning against the hallway wall, she tilted her head back, pressing it gently against the cold surface to breathe more easily. 

At that moment, a pair of white high heels appeared in her peripheral vision. 

Ophelia stood up straight, turned her head, and met Ivy’s cool, haughty gaze.
