Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 157

Chapter 157

Upon witnessing the scene, Kenneth frowned deeply. His gaze turned furious at the sight of the blood on

Ophelia's forehead.

He felt heartbroken and hateful.

Now, Ophelia's hands were tied behind her back, and her white coat was covered in mud and dirt. Her hair hung

untidily over her shoulders, and she could barely stand on her tied feet. She started at Kenneth/

It had only been a few hours since she last saw him, and she missed him terribly.

Even with the cold gun barrel against her temple, Ophelia's face remained calm and composed.

With Kenneth around, she feared nothing.

Ronan gripped Ophelia's arm, his legs shaky as he pulled her back. Two mercenaries with rifles shielded Ronan,

their gun barrels aimed at Kenneth.

Ronan warned, "Kenneth, if you don't want her to die, prepare 300 million dollars forand letgo, or else..."

"Honey, is this coat you're wearing yours?" Ophelia asked. Her lips were pale, and her voice was weak and

hoarse from not speaking for a long time..

Ronan was stunned, his eyes squinting slightly as he turned to look at Ophelia with a gun to her head, puzzled.

He wondered, "What is she talking about? Is she really in the mood for small talk right now? Isn't she afraid of

dying?

Kenneth responded, "No, it belongs to Caleb. As Ophelia spoke, the furrow in his brow eased, and his voice

softened. Ophelia said, "You don't look good in that style."

Kenneth remarked, "I think so too."

Their conversation left Ronan puzzled, and he felt ignored by them.

Ophelia said, "Honey, | miss you."

Kenneth replied, "I miss you too. How about we head hsoon!"

Ophelia said, "Yeah, I'm starving"

Kenneth asked, "How about | cook you something?"

Ophelia replied, "Sure."

Ronan was furing, thinking, 'Do they regardas air?"

He asked furiously, "Kenneth, did you hear me? If you want to save her, prepare 3 million dollars."

Ophelia smiled, staring at Ronan, and said, "Wishful thinking,"

Ronan's face twisted with anger, and he hadn't realized the meaning behind her gaze.

The next moment, Ophelia gave a strong pull with both hands, and the already loosened rope snapped

Then she quickly seized Ronan's arm that was holding the gun.

"Bang

The gun fired into the sky.

The mercenaries on either side turned to check the situation, about to shoot Ophelia.

Two rapid gunshots echoed, followed by their heads bursting in gory spray of blood.

Kenneth put away his gun, strode forward, and kicked Ronan hail, sending him flying into the sea.

Ophelia still had her feet tied, her balance off, and she nearly fell into the sea too.

Suddenly, Kenneth's large hand wrapped around her waist, pulling her into a warm embrace.

"It's okay now," Kenneth reassured, gently patting Ophelia's head

She said, "Yeah."

Kenneth took out a knife and cut the ropes around Ophelia's fee His fingers gently brushed away the strands of

hair in front of her eyes.

Kenneth closely examined the wound on Ophelia's forehead, his eyes filled with concern. He gently traced the

skin around her wound with his fingertip, his gaze growing angrier. Ophelia murmured, "I'm fine...

Before she could finish her sentence, Kenneth kissed her, tasting her breath.

Upon witnessing this and recalling the recent collaboration between Kenneth and Ophelia, Phoebe felt a pang of

jealousy.

"Kenny, help met Phoebe shouted, sitting up on the floor of the yacht. Covered in dust and with tears in her

eyes, she looked pleadingly at Kenneth.

Kenneth frowned, his sharp eyes narrowing slightly.

He seemed surprised to see Phoebe there.

The tenderness he had shown Ophelia just moments earlier completely disappeared.

Kenneth tossed a dagger towards Phoebe, not caring if she could reach it or save herself, and turned his gaze

away from her.

Ronan hoisted himself up with his hands, completely drenched and looking somewhat disheveled.

At this point, none of his men remained; they had all been taken out by Kenneth's team.

Caleb, Barrett, and their group quickly reached the coastline.

Ronan quickly grabbed the gun by his side, but it had been soaked in seawater. He pulled the trigger several

times, but the bullets wouldn't fire.

It was the first tthat Ronan had witnessed Kenneth's frightening power.

Kenneth had managed to find this place in such a short tand taken out dozens of Ronan's mercenaries in just

a few

minutes.

Ronan rose shaklly from the water, caneless, and walked slowly to the shore with his hands clasped behind his

buck, casting glances at those on land.

He couldn't believe Kemeth would dare to even think about killing him.

"What do you want to do to me? I'm your grandfather!" Ronan said in a trembling voice.

"Grandfather?" Kenneth sneered, "Have you forgotten what you said back then!"

Back then, Kenneth had clutched Ronan's pants and begged Roinn to bury his mother, calling him "Grandpa."

However, Ronan said, "Grandpa? The Sinclair family doesn't recognize a bastard like you!"

After saying this, Ronan mercilessly kicked Kenneth, sending him down the steps.

Ronan said with a smile, "I shouldn't have been soft-hearted back then and kept your life!"

Ophelia stared at Ronan coldly. It seemed he had given up.

100%

He stated, "Kenneth, lettell you the truth; even without that car accident, your mother wouldn't have lived

much longer!"

Since Ronan was destined to lose everything, he wouldn't let Kenneth have an easy life.

Ronan's expression remained calm. It seemed like he was hiding a secret only he knew,

Kenneth gritted his teeth, his eyes gloomy and hard to read.

Ronan said, "You want to know why? Get 3 million dollars ready forand sendabroad. Then I'll give up the

Sinclair Group. Kenneth replied. "You wish!"

He wouldn't let someone who kidnapped Ophelia just walk away

Kenneth continued, "Don't worry, | won't kill you. You like it here, right? Then stay and enjoy your twilight years."

Ronan's expression shifted. He looked confident just a moment ago, but now his face turned pale.

"Are you leavingto die alone on this deserted island?" Ronan asked.

"You can swim back," Kenneth said seriously about something impossible.

There was absolutely no possibility that Ronan could swim back over 62 miles and survive.

Kenneth turned to look at Ophelia next to him, noticing the wound on her forehead. Then he glanced at the

Sinclair Manor again,

He ordered, "Burn it down""

Kennethpwas not even leaving Ronan a place to stay.

Kenneth wrapped his arm around Ophelia's shoulder, about to pick her up, when he heard Phoebe shout from

behind, "Kenny, be careful!"

Bang!

A gunshot echoed

Kenneth was suddenly shoved back 2 feet by a force, and Ophelia who had been standing in front of him a

moment ago swiftly moved to stand behind him. Kenneth's eyes narrowed slightly, and for the first time, a hint

of helplessness appeared on his face

At that moment, it felt as if he lost all his senses, the veins on his forehead standing out

"So annoying! But it's better this way. You should taste the sorrow of losing a loved one again!" Ronan said and

laughed crazily.

"Bang

Caleb shot Ronan in the arm that was holding the gun.

Ronan's arm went limp, and he shouted in pain.

Several men moved in and pinned him down.
