"The Davidson family and the West family's feud? Ophelia thought.

When the Davidson family was mentioned. Ophelia immediately thought of Phoebe and Jonathan. She didn't have a good impression of either of them.

Ophelia didn't consider Chloe a member of the Davidson family

Kenneth took her hand, and they continued walking forward.

It's an old grudge from the previous generation, but it ended up involving the younger one. Do you remember when I told you about it?

"Eighteen years ago, during the presidential election, the West family's two-year-old daughter was kidnapped with Mrs. West by their enemies. The kidnappers were from the Davidson family, Kenneth said.

"So, are you saying the West family's youngest daughter was killed by the Davidson family?" Ophelia asked.

That really deepened the grudge between the families.

Yes, the Davidson family's roots were also in Heloria back then. After the election, they fled to Yoskela. Over the years, they've been trying to stir things up again. So, from now on... be careful of the Davidson family, alright?" Kenneth ruffled her hair from behind and wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"I'll be careful. Besides, I have you to protect me," Ophelia said.

Kenneth didn't respond. "Let's get in the car. Are we really going to walk all the way back?"

"We could just walk back. It'll be like a walk in the park," Ophelia said.

It was rare for them to have time together like this.

"Alright, let's walk back then," Kenneth said, his voice full of affection, holding Ophelia close, his gaze softer than the moonlight.

"The two of them continued walking down the road.

When they reached an uphill stretch, Kenneth crouched in front of her. Tll carry y you."

"Sure!" Ophelia said, excited.

He'd never carried her before.

Ophelia climbed onto his broad, warm back and wrapped her arms around his neck.

She pressed her cheek against his back, rubbing it affectionately like a little cat

Kenneth stood up, and Ophelia felt light as a feather. His back didn't seem burdened at all, though his entire body fel warmer with her presence. Kenneth's pace was slow as if he didn't want to reach the end of the road.

But unfortunately, every road has an end.
