Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Chapter 152

Looking at the back protecting her, Ophelia felt warmth spread in her heart. In the past, she was used to handling everything by herself, and now she realized how comforting it was to have someone to lean on.

No wonder in her past life, Emily always liked hiding behind her family. This feeling was different from when Kenneth

Ophelia didn't notice she was lost in thought, with her mind entirely filled with Kenneth, as if there was room for nothing

"Sienna, apologize quickly, or wait till we get home and see how I deal with you." Sienna gritted her teeth, clutching the hem of her dress.
