Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia)

Kaden looked at Ophelia, and he couldn't hide the smugness in his eyes.

He thought, 'Last time she made me suffer a huge blow. There's no way I'll let her go easily. I'd like to see how she's gonna handle it without Kenneth backing her up. Those cunning foxes the company will surely tear her into pieces! The thought filled him with satisfaction, and even his small eyes became brighter.

"Well, isn't this Ms. Spencer?" Kaden adjusted the tie around his neck, put his hands behind his back, and walked toward Ophelia step by step.

Behind him, the officers all held rifles in their hands and also guns on their waists.

In stark contrast, Ophelia was accompanied only by a young boy and a burly man with a thick beard, looking a bit weak.

"What brings you here today, Mr. Clark?" Ophelia feigned innocence. She knew that they were here to see Kenneth, but they were also aware that Kenneth wasn't here.

These repeated probes were merely attempts to figure out if Kenneth could come back.

If he did return, perhaps they'd restrain themselves a bit.

But if he still didn't come back, some people might start making their next move.

Kaden walked up to Ophelia and said, "I'm here to see Mr. Sinclair today."

Ophelia looked at them coldly but spoke politely, "The harbor issue is already under investigation by the relevant departments..."

"Who said I'm here to see Mr. Sinclair because of the harbor issue?" Kaden spoke slowly with a smirk hidden beneath his mask. He chuckled lightly and then let out a long sigh.

He said, "I've warned you not to develop the slums back then, haven't I? Look at the mess now! You've dragged the whole or Dellanex into this. The consequences are beyond you. Of course Mr. Sinclair has to get involved."

Ophelia frowned. She recalled the news she had seen earlier, and a sense of foreboding appeared in her mind.

She thought, 'Sinclair Group definitely can't get involved in this.

Seeing Ophelia's expression, Kaden felt even more pleased. He said, "Do you think you can develop the slums alone? Do you think the president would give you the right to develop the slums so easily?"

He sneered, turned around to look at the large company and continued, "Without Sinclair Group backing you up, and without Kenneth promising with the whole company, do you really think the president would have agreed to the development of the slums? Don't be naive."

Ophelia clenched her fists. Getting the right of the development of the slums was too quick and smooth back then.

She had suspected it before, but she still chose to believe Kenneth's explanation to her.

-Ophelia said, "I will discover the virus's origin as soon as possible and give a satisfactory explanation to the government. I've

also contacted the researchers, and we'll quickly work on developing medication to fight the virus."

Over the years, there had been domestic and international studies on the AOKR virus.

It was no longer considered an incurable disease.

As soon as the incident occurred, she contacted Ronin. Research was already underway overseas, but the mutation of this virus still needed confirmation

At the research institute, Jackson also helped find doctors from specialized fields.

Ophelia always felt there was something strange about this matter. Even though she had been in Milagia for the past two months, she had been keeping track of the progress back home on developing the slums.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

At that time, the seawater quality tests showed no issues, and later tests were conducted according to regulations. Why would there suddenly be a problem?

However, the power of public opinion was too strong now, and even if she stepped up to explain, nobody would believe her.

Kaden sneered and said, "We don't have time to wait now. Sinclair Group must give Dellanex an explanation. The president has to be responsible for Heloria."

After he said that, the executives were displeased. They said, "Why should we be blamed for this? What does this incident have anything to do with Sinclair Group? Why should we take the blame?"

"Exactly, go after the company that did the development. Sinclair Group is such a large company. Why would we develop slums for just a tiny profit? That's so ridiculous."

"Ms. Spencer, since you're the reason this issue started, you should take responsibility. With Mr. Sinclair absent, can't

you make the company he worked so hard to build pay for your actions."

Even though what these people were saying wasn't pleasant, they did have a point.

If this issue impacted Sinclair Group, then its standing in Dellanex would be at risk.

All the other groups and families would unite and, with the power of public opinion, slowly take Sinclair Group down.

They wouldn't stop until they took Sinclair Group down.

"This whole thing started because of me, so I'm willing to take all the consequences. It has nothing to do with Sinclair Group," Ophelia stated firmly as she looked at Kaden.

"Mrs. Sinclair..." Mark stepped forward and wanted to intervene, but Ophelia stopped him with a glance.

Sinclair Group was something Kenneth fought hard to acquire, so she wouldn't allow anything bad to happen to it.

She looked at Mark and said, "Mark, I'll leave the company to you for now. Go to Marilyn later and get the document from my desk."

It was something about the recent activities of the Huxley family and the illegal deals they had been involved in over the years, which should be able to temporarily hold them back.

Ophelia continued, "Also, release a statement explaining the entire slum development project. The name on the government permit and the developer's name are both mine, and it has nothing to do with Sinclair Group." Mark said, "Mrs. Sinclair, but..."

Ophelia turned to Mark and said firmly, "Just do as I said. Kenneth has worked hard to get to where he is today. You know it -better than I do."

Mark clenched his fists tightly, gritted his teeth and then nodded firmly.

He knew exactly what that meant.

Kaden looked at them smugly and then impatiently motioned a the officers, who immediately stepped forward and were

about to take Ophelia away.

But as soon as they moved, Eric and Ray quickly moved to stand in front of Ophelia.

Ophelia looked serious. She didn't know what awaited her if she was taken away, but she couldn't get Eric and Ray involved. She said, "Move away, you two."

"Mrs. Sinclair..." Before Ray could finish his words, a group of bodyguards in black suddenly rushed into the meeting room.
