Jilted Bride 71

Chapter 71

Stock trading was like this. If one hesitated over an opportunity, he would feel like he missed out on a huge fortune. After all, that money could have been in his pocket, but sadly, it was lost.

When Harry met Ophelia again, he changed his attitude towards her, becoming extremely respectful, as if he had encountered a creator. "Madam, do you have any other stock recommendations?" Ophelia knew that the fish had taken the bait.

Ophelia canceled Lisa's account, returned to Rosewood Manor, and gave Lisa a large commission. Besides that, she also made Lisa a dress.

"Miss Spencer, this is too extravagant. This dress must have cost a lot." Previously, when Lisa had gone to deliver food to Ophelia, she had overheard them saying that a dress could cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars. She couldn't afford such an expensive gift. This one is not expensive. I heard your son is getting married soon. You can wear it to their wedding. Ophelia said.

It was a crimson dress, elegantly conservative in style, embroidered with intricate rose patterns.

Lisa was astonished and touched that Ophelia remembered what she had mentioned in passing. "Taking care of you is my responsibility. Mr. Sinclair has already paid me a high salary. If I accept your money and gifts, it truly would be..." "This is tailored to your size, so please accept it. You know my dresses are all custom-made. If you don't take it, I can't give it to anyone else," Ophelia insisted.

Ophelia understood that not everyone would trust someone unconditionally. Lisa was willing to lend her identity information. Lisa's trust in her could not be compared to a dress, and accepting the dress was merely a small token of her gratitude. With Ophelia saying so, Lisa had no choice but to accept. After receiving it, her eyes were filled with joy. "Shall I try it on?" "Sure. Ophelia nodded, feeling happy to see Lisa's delight.

After dinner, Ophelia returned to her room and leaned against the couch with a laptop on her lap, typing away on the keyboard.

Unknowingly, she lost track of time until Lisa reminded her, "Miss Spencer, you should go to bed early. It's already midnight. Mr. Sinclair probably won't come back tonight."

"Alright, I will sleep right away. Ophelia got up and glanced at the courtyard entrance through the floor-to-ceiling window. The flowers outside had already fallen in this season. In another month, winter would arrive.

Ophelia had been reborn for almost half a year. "Time really flies; she thought as she got up to take a shower, changing into gray long pants and a long-sleeved nightgown.

As Ophelia stepped out of the bathroom with damp hair, a shadow enveloped her body. A familiar chill entered her nostrils, carrying a hint of autumn's cold.

"I thought you weren't coming back tonight," Ophelia said without realizing that a smile of happiness curved her lips while saying

"Why are you still awake so late? Not behaving. Kenneth remarked as he looked at her.
