Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 152

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

They could confront each other in the business world later. Harris said coldly, "Cecilia, apologize to Ms. Carnegie"

Hearing Harris' word, Cecilia's face darkened, as if her mouth was glued shut.
