Chapter 77

With no one else around, Ophelia finally felt less awkward. She pouted and muttered softly, “It’s all your fault for letting so many people know!”

Winford sat down on the sofa, and with a slight push, she fell into his arms. He wrapped his arm around her waist and explained, “It wasn’t me who said it; my grandmother, on my mother’s side, was worried about me and would often ask about the situation at Sunset Vista. She knew it herself.”

“As for the maids at home, they guessed it themselves.”

Ophelia barely felt angry anymore; she just pouted slightly and still felt a bit embarrassed. “My waist also felt uncomfortable…”

She leaned against him, feeling wronged, and said with a tone of accusation. A big hand helped her massage, and Winford looked down at her, saying, “Lia, you were the one who misbehaved last night.”

Ophelia’s little face turned red, and she remembered that she had brought this upon herself, so she fell silent. At that moment, his phone suddenly rang; it was a call from Bryson.

Ophelia’s eyes quietly lit up as she stayed beside him without making a sound. When he finished the call, she quickly tapped on his screen, and the interface immediately displayed Bryson’s detailed number.

“What were you doing? Huh?”

Winford set his phone aside with his backhand and caught her mischievous little hand, squinting at her slightly.

Ophelia looked innocent. “I just poked it casually…”

Winford was just about to say something when Graham came over, seemingly giving a silent reminder. Winford glanced at the time on his watch, ruffled her hair, and said, “I’m going to take a shower. You be good and play by yourself.”

Seeing him leave, Ophelia immediately took out her phone. Her fingers quickly tapped the screen several times, and soon, a string of numbers appeared on the interface—she had had an extraordinary memory since she was young! Although it was only two seconds ago, remembering a string of numbers was not difficult for her at all!

She directly sent a message to Bryson.

“Did you want to heal your leg?”

Bryson 😕

“Ophelia: Your leg was poisoned, and only I could cure it!”

Having experienced a past life, Ophelia confidently said this.

However, on the other side…

Kingchester, the Merritt family.

Chapter ??

Upon seeing this sentence, Bryson laughed directly. “Where did this deadbeat con artist come from, to have tricked me!”

So many renowned doctors were at a loss, but she had a solution? Ha, did Bryson look like a fool? The line of text was struck down with a clap.

“You had to get better, or I would live-stream eating shit, get lost!”

Ophelia: “???”

She was so angry that she fell back, grinding her teeth and typing furiously.

“Wait for you!!”

If she made a vow herself, then she couldn’t blame her!

On the other side, Bryson threw his phone aside, completely not caring about the matter. I couldn’t help but complain that since this scammer was able to get his contact information, he must have some connections. How could he not even know that his leg was caused by a hereditary disease? Poisoned? What a stretch!

“Is everything arranged?” he asked his subordinate beside him.

His leg seemed to be beyond healing, and he had no choice but to give up his identity as an heir. There was no point in staying here any longer; it would be better to go to Minston and seek refuge with Winford!

Ophelia had just put down her phone when the servant came over and said, “Madam, Mr. Greene and Mrs. Greene have arrived!”

Ophelia took a second to react before realizing that this was about Samuel and Erin. His expression turned cold for a second. “What did they come for?”

“It was said that they wanted to see Mr. Winford!”

As soon as the words were spoken, Winford came down from the stairs with long strides.

“If Lia didn’t want to see them, she could have just let them leave.”

Many people wanted to see him, but few could get through the door of Sunset Vista. Although the Greene family were technically his in-laws, he didn’t care at all; nothing was more important than his young wife’s feelings.

Hearing the man say that, Ophelia felt happy, but still said, “No need, let them come in!”

She wanted to see what these two were up to.

“Outside.”

Samuel and Erin heard that Mr. Winford had let them in, and they both breathed a sigh of relief. Samuel straightened his clothes and turned back to say, “Don’t speak carelessly later, or you’ll anger Mr. Winford!”

Erin sneered inwardly; what did it mean to talk nonsense? She had no intention of coming here for nothing today! When Ophelia forced her family into that state, wasn’t she being quite arrogant? Did she dare to let Mr. Winford know her true self?
