Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 169

Chapter 169

The atmosphere around turned tense, and quite a few onlookers were drawn over.

The large supermarket somehow made people feel short of breath.

Sensing Ophelia's overwhelming pressure, the people nearby didn't dare intervene, only muttering among themselves.

Someone said, "Oh dear, it's all just a misunderstanding."

Another one claimed, "Yeah! Don't start a fight! Can't we talk this over peacefully?"

People at other checkout counters quickly pulled out their phones, eager to film the scene.

Ophelia's face was blank, her jaw slightly tightened, and her eyes were icy.

It was the first time Sharon saw Ophelia like this. It seemed that Ophelia had been enraged. Ophelia just coldly stated, ""Apologize!"

The grip of Ophelia's hand kept tightening, making the woman's face turn even paler.

She yelled, "Oh... I... I apologize! I'm sorry! What more do you want from me?"

Feeling like her bones might break, the woman immediately backed down.

"Not to me," Ophelia said and suddenly let go of her grip.

The woman retreated two steps, her arm entirely numb. Squinting at the girl, she spoke with a condescending tone, "Sorry, are you satisfied now?"

The apology was as insincere as it could possibly be.

The little girl lowered her head and whispered, "It's... It's okay."

Ophelia's intense anger was doused by those simple words from the little girl.

She felt distressed that such a kind child was undeservedly treated poorly.

The woman's eyes darted about nervously as she kept glancing at Ophelia.

Since Ophelia didn't say anything else, the woman immediately rushed off, vanishing from her sight.

A flicker of satisfaction lit up the girl's eyes. No one had ever apologized to her before, and this unexpected gesture of respect was a new experience for her. Although it wasn't grand, she found herself quite pleased with it. She said, "Thanks, miss."

The girl thanked Ophelia, her eyes twinkling like stars.
