Jilted Bride 266

Chapter 266

Through the long, lonely night, Ophelia barely got any sleep.

She tried messaging and calling Kenneth, but just as she had suspected, his phone was off.

By the time morning arrived, the fog by the seaside was thick, and there was no sunrise that day.

Ophelia changed into a white sports outfit with black stripes, put on a baseball cap, and slung a sports backpack over her shoulder. Before leaving, she glanced at the figurine on the bedside table. The long flight to Milagia was uneventful, and when Ophelia arrived, it was still daytime.

She managed to nap on the plane. After landing, she immediately rented a car and drove off, following the route she had taken last time to Death Guild.

Death Guild was in a very hidden location, and it didn't show up on the navigation system at all.

Ophelia had no choice but to rely on her memory to find the way.

The scene looked completely different in winter.

Once she left the bustling areas, she almost made a wrong turn several times.

Without the city's traffic lights to limit her, Ophelia sped along the wide asphalt roads in the military green Jeep she had rented.

Eventually, the car entered the familiar dense forest, and from a distance, she saw the Death Guild building backed by a towering mountain.

The trees here were even denser, making it harder to spot the place.

When she was still a little ways off, a few familiar black SUVS suddenly appeared from a distance and blocked her path.

A group of people got out of the vehicles.

The man at the front was tall and muscular, with tanned skin covered in bold tattoos, wearing a black sleeveless shirt, with more tattoos on his neck and head. "You can't come in here," he said.

They had noticed the Jeep the moment it appeared on their remote surveillance.

Ophelia hadn't taken the regular road but had headed directly for Death Guild, a place known to very few. The moment she showed up, they triggered their defense systems. Ophelia lowered the car window and was immediately surrounded by a group of men, with the distinct feeling that if she didn't leave, they'd carry her away.

"I'm looking for someone," Ophelia said coldly.

"Looking for someone? This place isn't somewhere you can just stroll into," the man replied.

If anyone could just come in looking for someone, this wouldn't have been Death Guild.
