Jilted Bride 144

Chapter 144

The next day was the third day of the new year, and Ophelia had promised Bethany that she would visit Carnegie Villa today.

At the dining table, Ophelia noticed that Noah didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave and casually asked, "Weren't you planning to go to Waston?"

Waston was the capital of Heloria, about a thousand kilometers from Deltanex. It was not very close.

Noah ignored her question, and Ophelia didn't press him further.

Kenneth completely ignored him, acting as if he wasn't even there. Ophelia, too, gradually became more accepting of him.

After breakfast, Noah took the initiative to help Lisa with the cleaning.

He explained, "During such a festive time, I'm worried that if I go back home, I'll just get kicked out again. Let me stay for a couple more days. I promise not to freeload. I'll help you clean around here."

At this moment, Mark hurried into Rosewood Manor. As soon as he walked in, he saw a tall, handsome man vacuuming the floor, wearing an apron.

Mark recognized Noah and gave him a nod, not surprised by the scene. "Happy New Year, Mr. Sinclair, Ms. Spencer." Mark said as he licked his lips.

"Happy New Year." Ophelia responded. Usually, when Mark visited Rosewood Manor, he had something to report to Kenneth. Working even during the New Year, it's really tough for him.

While reporting, Mark didn't avoid their presence. "Mr. Sinclair, Ronan has been making a fuss at Sinclair Manor, asking to see you!"

"Then give him the body." Kenneth said indifferently. Ronan no longer poses any threat to him.

"But, the people over at the Sinclair family said Ronan has been secretly contacting the Davidson family recently."

Hearing the name Davidson, Ophelia couldn't help but think of Phoebe. "Is the Davidson family really that powerful?" Ophelia tilted her head and asked.

Mark didn't notice Kenneth's expression and answered in a business-like tone, "The Davidson family is the leading underworld clan in Yoskela.

"Their influence is strong on both sides of the law. Their arms business spans globally, but it has not yet entered Heloria.

"I wonder if Ronan reached out to the Davidson family to help them break into the Heloria market or to use this chance to counter Mr. Sinclair." Meeting Kenneth's eyes, Mark suddenly realized he'd said too much.
