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

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

else.

Feeling the stares around him, Harris shot an angry look at his daughter for making trouble, utterly embarrassed. The side that originally had a valid argument suddenly seemed to lose in

"Kids having a little squabble, why get angry, Finlay?" Harris made a sudden change in his attitude, yet still held his superiority. "We'll compensate for her clothes. There's no need to damage our goodwill for such a trivial matter."

"This is not a trivial matter." Finlay glanced at Ophelia's stained clothes, his usually kind face now showing some coldness. "Elia, how do you want to resolve this?"

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.

Seeing Harris asking his daughter to apologize, he quickly urged his own disappointing daughter to apologize too. "Sienna, apologize quickly, or wait till we get home and see how I deal with you."

Sienna apologized, all eyes turned to Cecilia. And Cecilia looked at
