Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 211

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.

She thought. So what if I am fiery? With him around, it is hard not to be fiery.

She asked, "Weren't you supposed to be back tomorrow!"

He asked, "Tired of being in this position?" Wh-What Harris asked and gulped, his lips dry. He said, "No, Mr. Sinclair, I-I didn't..."

He didn't expect Kenneth to come today. He looked at Ophelia and thought, 'Seriously? Just for a woman!"

He had heard of Kenneth's tactics but had never seen them himself. Just hearing Kenneth speak sent shivers down his spine, and weakened his heart.

Rumor had it that Kenneth was the type of person who didn't even consider military leaders in Heloria worth acknowledging. As for a mere department head like Harris, Kenneth was surely thought even less of.

Harris didn't dare doubt the truth of those words. Ending his career could happen with just a single sentence from Kenneth
