Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Chapter 260

Kenneth remained silent, and the waitress seized the opportunity to walk inside.

She glanced around the room but didn't see Ophelia, so she curiously asked, "Is Mrs. Sinclair not here?"

Kenneth, with his commanding presence, still didn't respond.

The waitress, not daring to ask further, lowered her head and began tidying up.

She considered herself one of the best-looking women in the hotel, but Kenneth hadn't even spared her a second glance, which left her feeling disappointed.

Once she finished organizing, she walked over to Kenneth. "Mr. Sinclair, is there anything else you need? There are plenty of late-night snacks available. Would you like me to prepare some for you and Mrs. Sinclair?" "No need." Kenneth's voice was cold and piercing, even carrying a hint of irritation.

The waitress dared not stay longer, offering a slight nod before retreating outside.

A little over ten minutes later, Ophelia had taken a quick shower in the bathroom, and when she stepped out, she found Kenneth standing on the balcony, hands resting on the glass railing. His tall figure was straight and imposing.

Ophelia, dressed in a bathrobe, smelled faintly of fruit.

Kenneth walked over, and Ophelia wrapped her arms around him from behind.

"Yes." Kenneth nodded.

His mood was clearly not great.

"What's wrong? Not happy?" Ophelia glanced at the time. It was already past midnight, and she had indeed taken too long in the bathroom.

It was her fault.

She had eaten and not considered Kenneth, who was waiting for her.

Before Ophelia could even touch him, Kenneth swiftly moved away.

"I'm tired," Kenneth said coldly.

Ophelia followed him inside. "Then, um... should I help you with a shower?"

"No need. You should go to bed," Kenneth replied.

Normally, Kenneth wouldn't have reacted this way at this hour.

"Okay," Ophelia replied, confused, nodding,
