Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 258

Chapter 258

The brilliant fireworks exploded in the sky.

Ophelia was kissed so deeply she could barely catch her breath, her lips and tongue numb from Kenneth's

relentless kiss.

She thought that Kenneth, with his glasses on, was even harder to resist.

The fireworks were over, and she hadn't seen a single one.

Ophelia cupped Kenneth's face with both hands, leaning back, forcing him away from her, and slowly began to

calm her breath.

When she looked up, her gaze collided with the deep crimson of Kenneth's eyes.

"What's wrong?" Ophelia asked.

'We didn't make love earlier this afternoon, and now he's so desperate to devour me?' Ophelia thought to herself.

"lI want you," Kenneth said openly, without any hesitation.

Ophelia, already struggling to control herself after his kiss, found his blunt words even more tempting. She

couldn't help but feel weak at the sound of them.

And that handsface, so close to hers, made her even more captivated.

"Didn't Charles say there's a cultural street behind the resort? How about we go check it out?" Ophelia quickly

changed the subject.

It wasn't even nine o'clock yet, and if Kenneth had his way now, she knew her back would be sore for days.

She knew just how persistent he could be.

Kenneth pushed his gold-rimmed glasses up his nose, the desire in his eyes gradually fading, his deep gaze now

like a bottomless well. "Alright, Babe." Kenneth nodded.

Seeing the rise and fall of his chest, Ophelia couldn't help but laugh.

Kenneth had already sighed in helplessness more than once today.

At this time, the cultural street was bustling with activity.

The shops lining the street were brightly lit, selling everything from artwork to various clothes and foods. People

were everywhere, creating a lively atmosphere.

In the small square where several streets converged, there was even a magic show.

Ophelia held a coconut juice in her hand, looking around with curiosity.

"Kennie, can you hold this for me?" she asked, handing the drink to Kenneth as they stopped in front of a shop

scarves.

She was wearing a dark green long dress and had casually picked up a white and teal scarf, draping it over her

shoulder. The scarf's soft material subtly revealed Ophelia's shoulder and back.

"Does it look good?" Ophelia turned to ask.

By coincidence, she met Kenneth's phone camera lens.

"It looks good," Kenneth answered without hesitation. In his eyes Ophelia would always be beautiful, no matter

what.

"I meant the scarf." Ophelia clarified.

"It doesn't compare to how beautiful you are," Kenneth replied.

'So he must think the scarf doesn't look good then?' Ophelia wondered.

Just as Ophelia was about to put the scarf down, the store owner a woman in her fifties or sixties, walked out.

"Miss, you have excellent taste. This scarf suits you very well," the woman said, picking up a dark red hairband

from the side.

"For every scarf purchased, I'll throw in a hairband. Single women can use it to attract love..." She glanced at the

man standing next to Ophelia.

She continued, "For those with boyfriends, you can have your boyfriend tie it on you.

"It symbolizes that, in the future, you'll always be together, longing for each other, day and night. Even when

you grow old, your partner will still be there, by your side." Ophelia looked at Kenneth.

The sentiment behind those words was quite beautiful.

"Heartstrings touched, a first glance," the woman added.

Kenneth placed the coconut juice aside and took the red ribbon from the woman, tying it in Ophelia's long hair

with careful precision.

Ophelia's silky hair didn't cooperate easily, and Kenneth fumbled for a long tbefore finally managing to tie it

on, though it was a bit awkward. Still, coming from Kenneth's hands, it looked exquisite.

"I'll take it," Kenneth said, and immediately, his bodyguard stepped forward to pay.

'l really want to be with you for the rest of my life," Kenneth thought.

Ophelia really liked the hairband too. With the scarf draped over her shoulder, she felt like an elegant beauty.

Her hair was tied back with a red hairband, looking like an angel who had fallen to earth.

After walking for a while, Ophelia's beautiful eyes fixed on a figurine shop. She bounced excitedly toward it, with

Kenneth trailing closely behind her.

"These two can be brought back for Chloe and Wyatt," Ophelia said, picking out two very cute figurines, one

large and one small. The woman was holding a cute little dinosaur baby, resembling Chloe and Wyatt, She

glanced over the entire shelf and was surprised to find a figurine of Rex.

It was a bit cartoonish, but the eyes were so well sculpted that it was instantly recognizable as Rex.

She cheered. "This one can be for Mara. She's a big fan of Rex. | could also get one for Rex. And here's one for

Sharon and Thomas... Look! They even made a couple's version..."

Ophelia planned to take them all back as gifts.

Muttering to herself, she picked out several figurines, each unique in its own way.

Kenneth watched Ophelia in front of him. When had she becso open in expressing herself?

Ophelia cared about everyone around her.

She was no longer the calm, composed person who kept everything buried deep inside.

She had started to show the lively, youthful energy one would expect at her age.

Ophelia paid for the figurines and even asked the shop owner for contact details.

She handed the packed souvenirs to the bodyguard behind them and hooked her arm through Kenneth's,

continuing to stroll forward.

Ophelia heard a noise and turned her head just in tto see a person painted with clown makeup, smiling as

they walked toward her, holding out a Polaroid camera.

It was a photo of her and Kenneth, smiling at each other, with her arm around his.

"Thank you," Ophelia said, holding the photo out to Kenneth with a happy expression.

"This must be our first photo together," she thought.

Kenneth gently held the corner of the photo, his eyes on Ophelia's image.

The smile that should've formed on his lips couldn't quite make it.

"Can you take another one for us?" Ophelia asked the clown.

The clown nodded happily and took a few steps back.

This time, Ophelia stood straight, her arm around Kenneth's as they both faced the camera.

Kenneth, however, was still staring at Ophelia, unable to look away.

Click!

The camera slowly ejected another photo. The clown waved cheerfully, then hopped away.

Ophelia carefully stored the photo, treasuring it.

Kenneth did the swith his.

After finishing their stroll through the cultural street, Ophelia felt hungry.

They had arrived at a street lined with all sorts of food stalls.

The stalls were overflowing with various snacks, seafood, barbecue, cotton candy, and ice jelly, among others.

"Have you ever had cotton candy?" Ophelia asked, glancing at Kenneth.

Kenneth nodded. "I had it when | was a kid."

His mother had bought it for him.

Those were the happiest days of Kenneth's childhood, with his mother around.

"I've never had it. Let's get one," Ophelia said, eyeing the fluffy, cloud-like treat, wondering what it would taste

like.

"Okay," Kenneth said, paying for it.

A huge, rainbow-colored cotton candy was handed to Ophelia.

She took a big bite, but as soon as it touched her mouth, it dissolved, leaving nothing behind.

Ophelia, still craving more, took another large bite.

The sweet taste melted instantly in her mouth.

A puzzled expression crossed her face as she thought, 'So this is what cotton candy is like!

"Ray, | want scotton candy too," Eric said.
