Jilted Bride 151

Chapter 151

Suddenly, the mood in the banquet hall became tense and heavy. Those who knew Ople was Mrs. Sinclair were surprised

at first, then calmed down. After all, she had the right to be arrogant.

They were curious to see how Harris, who was unaware of this, would react,

Everyone knew that Harris was the kind of person who fiercely protects his own; when his daughter got splashed with wine, there was no way he'd just let it slide. Authority could be overpowering

He stepped forward, patted Ophelia on the shoulder, and joked, No wonder you're Theo's acknowledged granddaughter, your personality does have a bit of his character, don't you all think?

Let's just leave it now, be mature and let it go." The sudden change left Cecilia, who was expecting Harris to support her, feeling confused. "But Dad...

"Follow my order!" Harris' tone became sterner as he gave Cecilia a pointed look, his expression a deceptively kind smile.

He said, "It's normal for kids to have little arguments. Let's do this: have the crew prepare a couple of outfits and let Ms. Carnegie and my daughter go and change."

This "Ms. Carnegie" that Harris referred to was Ophelia. Ophelia glanced at Phoebe, who had "kindly" intervened. To outsiders, it seemed like she was helping to defuse the situation for her.
