Revenge Of The Jilted Bride

Jilted Bride 288 Chapter 288 These words were just deceiving oneself. With such a big fire, no one would still be alive.

Kenneth used all his strength to break free from the two men, rushing into the fire like a madman, ignoring everything. He looked like he was heading towards death. "Mr. Sinclair!" The two men rushed over again, each holding onto one of Kenneth's legs.

Kenneth staggered, his eyes reflecting the blaze, turning crimson as if they were about to bleed. With a hoarse voice, he shouted, "Elia... Elia..." At that moment, he realized he shouldn't have been so heartless to leave her alone. He thought that by paving the way for her, her life would be smooth sailing.

But he was wrong. The moment he pushed her away, she must-have felt so desperate.

The flames reflected in Kenneth's despairing eyes, the growing fire seemed like it would conshis very soul. "Mr. Sinclair..." Caleb and Barrett quickly tackled Kenneth to the ground.

The entire warehouse roof collapsed with a loud crash, sparks flying everywhere. The burning heat stung his skin.

Kenneth pushed himself up, watching everything fall apart in front of him. It felt like his last bit of hope had also crumbled away.

** With Fiona supporting her, Ophelia limped down the mountain, seeing Kenneth kneeling in front of the blazing fire. His black shirt had two holes burned through the sleeves.

The fire flickered between them, and she suddenly remembered a past life, seeing him kneeling beside her. That once proud and tall figure seemed to droop, like life had been drained from him. Those usually proud phoenix eyes now looked lifeless and filled with despair, silent and still like death.

He whispered softly, as if all hope had left him. "Little one... I was wrong... wait for me, please wait for me..." Ophelia slowly walked up to him. "What did you do wrong?" She bent down, her small hands dirty and bloodied, gently touching Kenneth's head. Her tone held no trace of reproach; instead, it was tender, as if the wind could easily blow it away. Hearing the familiar voice, Kenneth quickly lifted his head, seeing Ophelia's face illuminated by the fire's glow.

Her cheeks were pale with a hint of red, and a dried blood mark added a strangely captivating look to her pure face. She stood right before him.

Tears streamed down, and he struggled to get up to hug her, but seeing her covered in injuries, he feared hurting her. His trembling hands quickly withdrew, like a child in panic.

Seeing Kenneth like this made Ophelia's heart ache suddenly; any remaining anger she had vanished instantly. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears from his cheek. She gently caressed his face, the ring on her fourth finger, one she never removed, was still there.

Kenneth held her hand that rested on his cheek, wearing the ring she had given him, a gift he couldn't bear to lose.

He missed her so much. And she missed Kenneth just as much.

Ophelia said, "Kenneth, I may not be this lucky every time..." She thought, 'Next time, he may really not get to see me. Is he sure he wants to keep causing trouble?' Kenneth's brow furrowed in distress as he gently brushed the skin beneath Ophelia's wound with his fingertip. "I'm sorry... Does it hurt a lot?" He asked as if referring to her wound, yet it seemed like he was also asking if she was hurt when he pushed her away.

Ophelia nodded. It was really hurt to her. She couldn't bear to blink, her other small hand gripping the corner of his shirt tightly, as if afraid he might run away again.

Chloe still had tear marks on her face, but seeing the two people at the site of the fire, her heart finally felt at ease. She withdrew her gaze, with her eyes resting on Phoebe beside her. Phoebe's eyes widened as she kept shaking her head. "No, it's impossible! How can this be? How could Ophelia still be alive..." "The Davidson family needs to be sorted out too." Chloe said in a harsh tone.

Jonathan took a deep breath at Chloe's words, pulling his gaze back from the two people in the distance.

"Aren't you fond of setting fires? Then burn yourself," he commented casually.

"No, please! Jonathan, Emma! I'm begging you, and I'm part of the Davidson family..." Phoebe was kneeling on the ground, pleading continuously. She didn't know why things liked this. "Davidson family? You think you deserve to call yourself one of us?" Fiona cover, unable to believe in her wildest dreams that after all her hard work for Phoebe, she would be the target of such a brutal attack.

If it hadn't been for Ophelia, she would have almost died in that fire.

Fiona confessed everything she had done, one thing after another. The first twas at the club entrance, the second was hiring someone to start a fire, and the third was directly hiring an assassin.

On the surface, it looked like the attack was aimed at Ophelia, but it was actually intended to kill Chloe. All of it was a plot to take Chloe's life.

Upon hearing those words, Jonathan kicked Phoebe on the ground in anger.

"How dare you lay a hand on my sister! Where did you get the guts? Throw her in!" Jonathan ordered his men, glaring at the blazing fire. This woman was simply despicable.

Ophelia limped over. "Where's Scott?" Kenneth and Chloe were on each side, supporting her. "Don't worry, Elia. He has been rescued." Ophelia breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Phoebe realized something and broke away from the m bodyguards, shouting towards Ophelia Nophelia, even if you're still alive, Kenneth is almost dead! The poison has spread to his brain. It won't be long before he dies." "Don't listen to her nonsense." Kenneth murmured, pulling Ophelia closer by her shoulder to keep her from paying attention to Phoebe. "Let's get to the hospital first." "Is that true? Don't lie to me." Ophelia held Kenneth's arm firmly, her eyes eagerly searching for the truth.

In the past, she might not have believed Phoebe's nonsense. But thinking back on everything that happened, if it was true, it all explained why Kenneth acted that way towards her before. She glanced at Kenneth. Their eyes met, and in his gaze, she found the answer. Her throat tightened as she suddenly remembered that Kenneth had once mentioned how his mother had tested a cure on herself to save Dellanex from a disaster.

She thought, 'Can it be that the toxin has been inside Kenneth's body all along?' "I have a way to save him, but if you kill me, you'll be destroying his last chance at living." Phoebe shouted with all her strength, unwilling to give in.

Ophelia shook off the support from Kenneth and Chloe, confidently striding toward Phoebe. Jonathan immediately ordered his men to stop dragging Phoebe. Knowing she wasn't going to die, Phoebe suddenly burst into laughter. "Wanna know?" "Tell me! What's the plan?" Ophelia didn't bother with any words and just grabbed her by the collar.

If Kenneth had a way, he certainly wouldn't just push her aside like that.

Even with her messy appearance, Ophelia's eyes remained fierce. "Spill it!" Her voice was hoarse and her eyes were illuminated by the fire's glow.
