Jilted Bride 157

Chapter 157

Upon witnessing the scene, Kenneth frowned deeply. His gaze turned furious at the sight of the blood on Ophelia's forehead.

He felt heartbroken and hateful.

Now, Ophelia's hands were tied behind her back, and her white coat was covered in mud and dirt. Her hair hung untidily over her shoulders, and she could barely stand on her tied feet. She started at Kenneth/

It had only been a few hours since she last saw him, and she missed him terribly.

Even with the cold gun barrel against her temple, Ophelia's face remained calm and composed.

With Kenneth around, she feared nothing.

Ronan gripped Ophelia's arm, his legs shaky as he pulled her back. Two mercenaries with rifles shielded Ronan, their gun barrels aimed at Kenneth.

Ronan warned, "Kenneth, if you don't want her to die, prepare 300 million dollars for me and let me go, or else..."

"Honey, is this coat you're wearing yours?" Ophelia asked. Her lips were pale, and her voice was weak and hoarse from not speaking for a long time..

Ronan was stunned, his eyes squinting slightly as he turned to look at Ophelia with a gun to her head, puzzled.

He wondered, "What is she talking about? Is she really in the mood for small talk right now? Isn't she afraid of dying?

Kenneth responded, "No, it belongs to Caleb. As Ophelia spoke, the furrow in his brow eased, and his voice softened. Ophelia said, "You don't look good in that style."

Kenneth remarked, "I think so too."

Their conversation left Ronan puzzled, and he felt ignored by them.

Ophelia said, "Honey, I miss you."

Kenneth replied, "I miss you too. How about we head home soon!"

Ophelia said, "Yeah, I'm starving"

Kenneth asked, "How about I cook you something?"

Ophelia replied, "Sure."

Ronan was furing, thinking, 'Do they regard me as air?'

He asked furiously, "Kenneth, did you hear me? If you want to save her, prepare 3 million dollars."

Ophelia smiled, staring at Ronan, and said, "Wishful thinking,"

Ronan's face twisted with anger, and he hadn't realized the meaning behind her gaze.

The next moment, Ophelia gave a strong pull with both hands, and the already loosened rope snapped
