Chapter 290

“Now, a family of an illegitimate child who was thoroughly despised by Mr. Winford was even worse off than before! She certainly could not look down on me, because she was simply unworthy!”

“Also, the fact that I married into Sunset Vista shouldn’t be a secret anymore, right? If I’m not mistaken, she had to bow respectfully when she saw me. Now she doesn’t even have the qualification to enter my house, does she?”

“Where did she get the confidence to dare to ‘not mind’ me? Those who don’t know would think your dad was the emperor and she was the empress!”

Ophelia’s extremely sarcastic words left Cullen feeling a chill in his heart. He looked pale and ashen, appearing to be in great distress. He didn’t expect that the once simple and sweet girl could say such sharp words. He looked at her in shock and anger, “Ophelia! You…”

“What’s wrong with me? Which word did I say wrong?” Ophelia scoffed. “If you know what’s good for you, it would be best to get lost and not come back to disgust me! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Ophelia looked at the handsome man in front of her, who had a lame leg, with cold indifference in her eyes. In his past life, how glorious was this man? He obtained all the assets in Winford’s hands, and Bessie snatched away all the glory that belonged to her. The two of them were in love behind her back, claiming that they were true love!

Chapter 40

Now, the man who had been so glorious in his past life had become a cripple with a lame leg, standing humbly in front of her, demeaning Bessie and claiming that it was she who had seduced him!

I wonder what Bessie would have felt if she had heard it. Ophelia mockingly tugged at her lip. At that moment, a person suddenly walked over—it was Graham!

“Madam, Mr. Winford asked you to come over; it was time to go home.”

Following the direction pointed out by Graham, I saw a familiar car parked under the shade of a tree not far away. –Winford!

Ophelia’s eyes lit up with a sparkle of love, and she immediately ran over there without looking back. Cullen looked at the car, his face pale and filled with terror! Mr. Winford…? When did he come?!

“Honey!” Ophelia ran up to the car and first glanced at Winford’s expression. Seeing that he looked calm and seemed not to be angry, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Dear, when did you come?”

“Just arrived,” Winford said, wrapping his arms around her waist, his expression a mix of joy and anger. He gazed through the glass, looking straight at Cullen outside.

In the moment when his gaze became fixed, Cullen was so frightened that he felt cold all over and turned pale. The broken leg seemed to throb faintly again. What did Mr. Winford see? What did he hear?

Ophelia noticed Winford’s gaze and felt a bit nervous. “Honey?” She glanced at Cullen outside and hurriedly explained, “I was just about to look for you when he suddenly rushed out and blocked my way, saying some nonsensical things. But I have already dealt with it, and there’s nothing between us. Please don’t be upset.”

Sensing his little wife’s nervousness, Winford withdrew his gaze and gently patted the top of her head with his large hand. “I wasn’t unhappy. Just drive,” he said. The last sentence was addressed to the driver.
