Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia)

Early the next morning. Chloe saw the trending topic online and called Ophelia, her voice

sounding uneasy The reaction online is huge. Two brands we were supposed to collaborate with just canceled. Should I put out a statement to explain the situation?"

"No rush," Ophelia replied casually. "Someone's giving us free publicity. Why not take advantage of it?

Chloe still wasn't so easily convinced. With all the hate pouring in online, this didn't feel like positive PR,

After a leisurely breakfast, Ophelia heard a commotion coming from the backyard. She asked Lisa. "What's going on outside

Lisa glanced out and replied with a smile, "Mr. Sinclair is having a playground built for you."

Ophelia was a bit surprised to hear that. She had been so busy at the studio lately that she hadn't paid much attention to what was going on at home. But now, looking out the window, she saw a large crew working on the expansive grounds behind the house, constructing a Ferris wheel and a roller coaster. The carousel and giant swing were already finished.

What's the point of building me a playground she thought.

Lisa seemed to read the confusion in her eyes, and she chuckled. "Is it good? Mr. Kenneth is treating you like a princess. Madam, don't think I'm speaking out of turn, but I've never seen him treat anyone this well."

Lisa took a deep sigh, and her expression turned somber. "Madam, you might never hear of this, but Mr. Kenneth has had a hard life. He was raised away from the family, and when he was ten, his mother left him. It was Mrs. Sinclair's friend who eventually took him abroad"

Lisa shook her head and continued, "I remember it was a cold winter, Mr. Kenneth carne to beg his father to bury his mother, but Mr. Noel Sinclair didn't even look at him. Mr. Kenneth was humiliated by Mr. Patrick, who forced him to stay in the snow all night. In the end, Liam and I secretly helped bury Mrs. Sinclair."

As she spoke, Lisa's eyes reddened. "Mr. Kenneth was curled up on the ground and kept thanking us. It was heartbreaking to see him suffering like that. People think he's ruthless, but inside, he's kinder and softer than anyone."

Ophelia had heard these stories in her last life, but after seeing Kenneth's brutality first-hand, she hadn't believed a word of it. She thought it was all just an excuse to justify his actions.

"You and Mr. Kenneth both had tough lives," Lisa continued with a sigh. "But at least now, you have each other. Maybe next year, you'll have a baby, and your family will be complete."

The first part of Lisa's story had been quite moving, but the sudden shift toward having a baby threw Ophelia off completely "A baby? He and I? No kidding!

By the time Kenneth returned to Rosewood Manor that evening, Ophelia was curled up on the couch and scrolling through the endless stream of insults aimed at her online with a laptop. She had to give Emily and Hannah credit-hiring so many bots and influencers had really ramped up the drama. The controversy wasn't dying down anytime soon.

Thankfully, she had picked a store in Dellanex, a mall known for its top-tier security. At least no one had shown up ther cause trouble.

"Need some help?" Kenneth asked as he walked over, placing a beautifully crafted box of pastries on the coffee table.

"You heard it Ophelia wasn't the least bit surprised. She never planned to hide anything from him. She knew he had people keeping an eye on her all the time. It was thanks to Kenneth's influence that she could move freely in and out of Everland. Hotel and effortlessly get her hands on the footage she needed.

Sitting up straight, she crossed her legs on the couch and grabbed one of the delicate cakes. "Thanks, but I'll handle my own revenge. You've already done enough for me." In her last life, Kenneth had avenged her, and this time, it was her own turn

Kenneth's long fingers gently stroked her hair in a soft and affectionate gesture. "So, what's your plan?"

"When a cat catches a mouse, it doesn't eat it right away. First, it plays with it until it's dead," Ophelia said with a mischievous

Kenneth's eyes were filled with undeniable affection as he watched her, pride written all over his face. He thought, That's my gul. Her style is just like mine.

He leaned closer and brushed the corner of her lips to wipe away the cream with his thumb. "Let me have a taste.

"Hm?" Before she could react, his lips were already on hers, and he slowly savored the cream she hadn't finished.

Ever since Kenneth had the pleasure of her body, he found it impossible to stop indulging himself.

The weekend passed with Ophelia mostly confined to bed, her body aching and her waist completely numb. Even when it came time to eat, she had to drape herself over Kenneth and let him carry her downstairs.

"Hey, you really don't need to make a point of coming home just to spend the weekend with me, Ophelia said with a lifeless

voice.

"No way: What if you missed me?" Kenneth retorted with a smirk.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Ophelia was left speechless by his shamelessness.

Meanwhile, Emily spent the entire weekend on edge, anxiously waiting for a lawyer's letter to arrive at her door, but none

cime.

When she went to the office on Monday, there was still no sign of any legal action. She thought with a sneer, Just as I expected. Weren't they all high and mighty that day? This could've all been avoided, but sorry, it just serves them right."" Online, every trending topic about La Reverie was marked with either "Hot" or "New".

"Ms. Hastings, your movie has been scheduled for release, just this month," her assistant Cathy said while handing her a stack of documents.

Emily skummed through the list of films releasing around the same time and frowned slightly. "On a Snowy Day is coming out the same day?"

"Yes, but you don't need to worry about that. No one's interested in some last-century story. That washed-up actress has nothing on you. Besides, you've got Rex Reyes co-starring with you. With his massive fanbase and your incredible acting in the mix, you're guaranteed to take the top spot at the box office. This year's Golden Globe for Best Actress must be yours."

There are so many veteran actresses with films coming out this year. I wouldn't dare dream of it," Emily said modestly, though inside, she was already thrilled.

She thought. Of course it's mine. Miles shelled out big money to get me this role. Dad was right. I need to earn back my reputation. Once I gain enough influence and connections in the industry. I'll get more chances to get close to Kenneth.

As soon as Cathy left, Emily received a phone call from Hannah. In a good mood, she picked up.

Hannah's anxious voice came from the other end. "Emily, what are we going to do? Bethany from Carnegie Group just came out publicly in support of La Reverie. Public opinion has completely shifted, and our audio doesn't hold up anymore."

Emily's smile immediately faded. She grabbed her mouse and hurriedly opened the latest posts. Bethany had posted a video, wearing a gown from La Reverie, and she formally cleared up the accusations against the brand. La Reverie's newly registered official account had reposted the video along with a statement.

If it had been anyone else, the explanation might have backfired, but Bethany was from the Carnegie family, one of Dellanex's three elite families. Her support turned the tide almost instantly.

There were many fence-sitters on the Internet, and countless influencers and media outlets rushed to share Bethany's video with their own opinions and analyses. Without Ophelia spending a single cent, La Reverie got the best possible publicity,

At La Reverie studio, Chloe was watching the situation unfold with amazement. "How did you pull that off?" she asked, curious.

Someone like Bethany, with her high social standing, didn't need anything from anyone. She was the hardest person to sway. Chloe couldn't believe someone as shrewd as Bethany would take action without something in it for her.
