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

stood in front of her.

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

The wine was spilled, and the clothes' money was asked for. She wasn't the one embarrassed.

Ophelia said. "Just have you two apologize to me in public."

Harris' face looked grim, but since the issue was now public, he couldn't rely on his position to intimidate others. But he had already noted the resentment against the Carnegie family in his heart.

He thought that there was nothing so great about the Carnegie family, which was just a family of upstarts. For someone not even related by blood, they dared to disrespect him like this. 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.
