Revenge Of The Jilted Bride (Ophelia)
Jilted Bride 197

Chapter 197

Ophelia hid by the door to the study, clearly hearing everything Jonathan said.

After speaking, Jonathan walked over to a wall and gently turned the antler mounted on it. With a "Click, "the wall immediately indented and slowly opened like two doors.

Seeing this, Ophelia thought, I guessed it correctly; there is a closer passage in the study

When she noticed the antler ornament on the desk carlier, which was exactly like the one on the wall, she suspected there might be a hidden door.

Instead of opening the door herself and risking setting off some mechanism that would alert anyone, she found it was better. to let Jonathan open it himself. Knowing Jonathan's character, she knew Jonathan would definitely want to personally capture her.

Suddenly, the black cat leisurely strolled to her feet, tilting its head as it looked at her from behind the door panel.

Ophelia lowered her eyes, meeting the black cat's gaze. When she looked up again, Jonathan had already closed the hidden door and was striding towards her. The hidden door was slowly closing

Ophelia frowned and quickly drew a gun from behind her waist. With two "bang" sounds, the entire room was instantly plunged into darkness. Guided by her memory, she swiftly dashed into the secret door before it closed. Thanks, Mr. Davidson, Ophelia said.

In the darkness, Jonathan looked toward the source of the voice Without any warning, a huge explosion erupted behind him, destroying the study

In the flare of the explosion, Jonathan watched helplessly as Ophelia disappeared through the secret door. His eyes turned bright red with anger, and he punched the ground.

He cursed, "Damn it... cough, cough... Thick smoke made him cough a couple of times. Glass shards that had come from nowhere earlier had cut his face, leaving him looking utterly messy.

The manor was in complete chaos, with smoke and haze filling the air. When suddenly, a flame shot up.

The bodyguards on duty rushed to put out the fire, making sure the flames didn't reach the arsenal.

At that moment, several helicopters hovered above the manor, their rotor noise almost bursting eardrums.

When Kenneth and his team arrived, they could hear explosions from afar, and thick smoke was spiraling into the night sky.

Barely conscious, Phoebe's pupils constricted at the sound of the explosion, a hint of madness showing in her eyes. She knew that landmines were buried around the area, and a small misstep could result in being blown up. She thought, 'Does Ophelia set off the minefield while trying to get away? If so, she's probably blown to pieces. This thought made all of Phoche's pain disappear instantly.

The helicopter approached and hovered a few meters above the ground. Kenneth jumped down and landed smoothly, his black trench coat billowing around him.

The bodyguards who had been fighting the fire immediately pointed their guns at Kenneth after seeing this.

Everyone in the manor was i

Jonathan lifted his eyelids, lus ice-blue eyes filled with defiance.

He said to Kenneth. "She's only using you. I never expected the boss of the Sinclair Group and the leader of the Death Guild to be used so completely, making such a fuss over a young girl who's just taking advantage of you." Jonathan looked at the helicopters with a mocking smile.

Phoebe couldn't believe what she heard. She thought, 'How could Jonathan be interested in Ophelia? Ophelia wasn't tortured to death. In fact, the destruction of this estate was her doing.

Why didn't Jonathan kill her? Why wasn't she blown to pieces? How could it be? Impossible!

Phoebe's blood felt frozen; her eyes went red, and her entire body trembled. She thought, I endured so much suffering in the dungeon, only to be misunderstood by Jonathan. What is so special about Ophelia that made these two men eager to fight over her? Why?"

Kenneth sneered. "You almost got killed by my woman, and you're still fooling yourself. If the recording says true, you wouldn't be holding a recording now, but Ophelia instead."

His words hit the target. His tone was dripping with arrogance. He looked at Jonathan as if he were a clown. Jonathan remarked inside. His cocky demeanor really makes me want to punch him!' SEND GIFT
