Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Chapter 211

Hearing this familiar and commanding voice, Ophelia felt a deep sense of calm and stability wash over her.

She put away all her sharp edges and walked towards Kenneth, standing by his side like a gentlewoman, feeling secure. Her beautiful eyes held nothing but Kenneth.
