Chapter 158

The morning sun slowly rose over the horizon, Waves crashed of the beach.

Time seemed to stand still in that moment.

Ophelia was momentarily stunned by what had happened.

Phoebe had rushed over without a second thought and shielded Ophelia from the bullet.

Phoebe should be trying to protect Kenneth.

Phoebe fell to the ground clutching her wounded shoulder, her extremely pale. Her eyes were tearful as she stared unblinkingly at Kenneth. Phoebe struggled to say, "Kenny... I won't Let anyone.. Hurt You Not even... The person you... Love most..."

Ophelia was quite shocked by Phoebe's actions.

Ophelia wondered, 'So, is she saying that she really took the bullet for me?"

If Phoebe hadn't suddenly rushed out, that bullet might have hit Ophelia in the chest.

Ophelia felt somewhat grateful.

Kenneth's shoulders shook as he spun Ophelia around. His trembling hands gripped her shoulders, while his cold, sharp eyes locked intensely on her. He asked, "Ophelia, are you trying to get yourself killed?"

His face was pale, his eyes filled with rage.

Thankfully, the bullet didn't hit Ophelia.

At that instant, Kenneth's heart nearly stopped. If that bullet had struck Ophelia, he would have riddled Ronan with bullets in retaliation

Ronan held his injured hand, and when he saw the bullet hadn't hit either Kenneth or Ophelia, an even more pained expression appeared on his face.

Kenneth spoke sternly, "Ophelia, heed my words! Should you ever entertain such recklessness again, I will ensure you live to regret it. And if you manage to survive, I will personally deliver you to your demise!" Ophelia swallowed hard, not wanting to challenge his empty threats.

She thought, "Could he really do it?"

Ophelia just said, "Shouldn't we try to help her first?"

Regardless of Phoebe's reasons, she got hurt because of Ophelia They couldn't just let Phoebe die there.
