Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Chapter 328

After Ophelia and Kenneth left, Theo looked at the symbolic items he had thrown away and turned his gaze away.

"Hurry up and pick the pocket watch back up for me," said Theo

Before Gerald could even move, Finlay hurried down the steps and picked up the pocket watch.

Others might not know the significance of this watch, but Finlay and Clara were well familiar with it.

It was their mother's keepsake.

Theo held the pocket watch in his hands, his aged fingers tracing its engraved patterns, a touch of sadness shown in his eyes.

By the time they got back to the Rosewood Manor, it was already close to ten o'clock.

Ophelia carried her heavy dowry into the room, gently pursing her lips.

With so many gifts received, she didn't know if she'd ever have the chance to return the favor.

She didn't like owing others.

Kenneth sat on the couch, wrapped an arm around Ophelia's waist, and pulled her onto his lap. "They gave you these because you deserve them. Just accept them happily without feeling pressured." He patted her head gently.

Ophelia turned her head. Kenneth always knew what she was thinking.

"My dear wife, isn't it time to fulfill your wifely duties on our wedding night?" Kenneth raised his eyebrows, feeling that doing such things seemed even more natural after getting their marriage certificates. Ophelia was on guard. Kenneth had had enough last night.

Her waist was still sore.

She had been performing her wifely duties for over a year; one more day wouldn't make a difference.

Just as she was about to stand up, a strong arm wrapped around her waist, and kisses slowly spread from her ear.

Her breathing became erratic, and her whole body felt weak, as if she had been electrified.

Kenneth lightly bit the most sensitive skin on the back of her neck and slowly grazed it.

He guided Ophelia in his arms onto the couch.
