Chapter 381

Kenneth felt that he was a fool, too stupid to see that the people saying these things weren't offering advice.

They were mocking him, their eyes filled with malice, jealousy, and smug amusement. Because of that envy, they made their remarks increasingly vicious, Kenneth's pride was ofien so foolishly stubborn.

And each time he said it, the light in Tiffany's eyes dimmed just a little more.

But instead, he let others' scornful gazes make him shove her away and treat her like a burden.

Kenneth deserved the sad ending.

Kenneth's face turned pale, and his forehead throbbed with shock
