Jilted Bride 251

Chapter 251

Kenneth's long fingers gently brushed through Ophelia's soft hair as he explained, "When I first took over Sinclair Group last year, we acquired a small island.

"It's now developed into a seaside resort area. Are you interested in coming with me to check out the results? I heard it's been quite popular lately, and we've never taken a vacation together, have we?" Ophelia thought for a moment and realized he was right. She couldn't recall a time they'd spent a proper vacation together.

"But what about the work I have on hand?" Ophelia asked.

She still wasn't fully familiar with Sinclair Group, and she had just secured the Westiend Railway Station project. On top of that, she needed to prepare for the upcoming bid for the stadium. Ophelia felt like there was a mountain of work waiting for her.

"I'll help you with the important tasks over the next couple of days. The less urgent stuff can be delayed. Anything else can be handled by Mark.

He can take charge at the company. If there's something you can't solve, leave it to him. Also, we can have Liam to help out," Kenneth said.

They could leave the old-timers at the company to Liam.

"Do you really think there's anything I can't solve with you around?" Ophelia said, wrapping her arms around Kenneth's waist and burying her face in his chest. Ophelia felt that it was indeed time to relax.

She had been so caught up in work recently that she hadn't had time to enjoy quality moments with Kenneth.

It had almost been a year since they'd been together.

Time really flew by.

Kenneth's heart skipped a beat as he lightly traced his fingers over Ophelia's slender back.

"Then I'll head to the company this afternoon to sort out the work tasks, and I'll also stop by Dellanex University," Ophelia said.

She still needed to deal with Zackary's video, which hadn't been made public yet.

Ophelia wasn't sure if Zackary had learned his lesson or if he had toned things down recently.

"Alright, I'll head back to Sinclair Group and wait for you," Kenneth replied.

The black Maybach stopped at the intersection, and Ophelia got out, climbing into the black SUV behind it.

The two of them automatically took seats in the back.

The car drove toward Dellanex University.

Ophelia had already informed Raphael that she wouldn't be able to substitute for a while.

Today, she was officially coming to hand over her duties. She had heard that the school had invited Madeline as a guest lecturer, so Ophelia needed to clear out her office. 09:31 Thu, Nov 28 B
