Inside the villa, the décor was in a white Eurasian style. A crystal chandelier hung down from the second floor, and on one cream–colored wall, there was a massive oil painting.
Opposite, a fireplace was set in, bright.

“Mr. Kenneth, you’re back.” The housekeeper stepped forward to take the items from Kenneth’s hands, but when she saw Ophelia beside him, her previously smiling face froze. Her gaze shifted nervously towards the living room.
Ophelia clearly sensed that this person wasn’t very welcoming. Her eyes followed the housekeeper’s gaze towards the living
room.
On the couch sat a mature, elegant woman who must have been over forty, yet her well–maintained appearance made her look barely thirty. Her delicate makeup and familiar features bore a resemblance to Kenneth’s mother.
On the way here, she learned that this so–called elder wasn’t just a friend of Kenneth’s mother but her biological sister, Ivy.
Ivy lifted her head, her proud brows slightly furrowed. Her bright, sharp eyes fell on Ophelia like daggers, making her feel very uncomfortable. “Kenny, you’re back.”
A young girl sitting across from Ivy stood up and turned her head. Her voice was soft and gentle, her eyes sparkling with admiration for Kenneth, her smile warm and gracious.
She wore an off–white dress, her long hair draped over one shoulder, exuding an air of intelligence and kindness that immediately brought to mind the phrase “first love.”
Ophelia felt Kenneth’s grip on her hand tighten slightly, and an invisible pressure emanated from him. The cold atmosphere in the room was like a chilly wind, sending shivers down her spine.
The girl’s eyes lingered on Kenneth for a moment, then gradually shifted to Ophelia, with a flash of amazement in her eyes,
With their outfits matched like that, no one would doubt they were a couple.
“You’re Kenny’s girlfriend, right? Hello, please come in,” the girl said with a friendly smile.
Ophelia returned a polite smile. Kenneth turned his head slightly, looked down at her, and whispered in her ear, “Just say hi and let’s go.”
“Alright.” She sensed that the atmosphere in the room had become a bit tense with her arrival.
“Ivy, this is my wife, Ophelia Sinclair.” Kenneth introduced.
When Kenneth said the words “my wife,” the girl’s expression momentarily froze, almost imperceptibly.
“Hello, Ivy.” Ophelia said.
From the moment Ophelia entered the room, Ivy only glanced at her once and hadn’t looked her directly in the eyes again.
“Phoebe, sit down for now.” Ivy smiled at Phoebe, stood up and walked over to Kenneth. “Kenny, come upstairs with me, and -let’s have a private conversation.”
“Say whatever you need to say right here.” Kenneth’s tone was icy, showing no deference to Ivy as an elder and leaving no room for negotiation.
Ivy’s expression darkened, and she reluctantly looked at Ophelia beside him.

At this moment, someone sensible would have offered some advice. However, Ophelia just stood there without saying a word.
Ivy asked, “Kenny, are you sure you want me to say this in front of this Miss?”

“Do as you please, whatever makes you happy.” Kenneth lowered his gaze to her, his long, almond–shaped eyes covered with a frosty layer.
The atmosphere in the living room gradually became tense and heavy. Ivy began to look a bit uneasy, and at that moment, Phoebe, with a knowing look, spoke up, “Ms. Spencer, how about we take a walk in the back garden?”
didn’t
Ophelia glanced up at Kenneth. He say anything, nor did he loosen his grip on her hand even slightly.
“No.” Ophelia replied casually, uttering just one word.
Phoebe’s smiling lips instantly froze. She hadn’t expected that this seemingly innocent and harmless girl would speak so sharply, somewhat like Kenneth’s personality.
Ivy chuckled softly. “Is this the person you brought back? No manners at all.”
Kenneth said, “My wife isn’t for others to judge. I came here today to let you know I have a wife, so there’s no use wasting your effort anymore.”
After speaking, Kenneth gave Phoebe a quick glance, holding Ophelia’s hand as he turned to leave.
“Kenny! Stop right there!” Ivy hurried to block their path.
She let out a slight sigh. “Are you really going to speak to me like this, just for a woman? Don’t forget, without me, you wouldn’t be where you are today.”
After she finished speaking, Ivy’s tone softened a lot. She said, “Now that you’ve avenged the Sinclair family, it’s time to think about the future. I’ve laid out the path for you.
“All you
need to do is keep walking on the road I’ve paved, and you can bring down Victor Sinclair! Make him regret ever abandoning you and your mother.”
‘Victor Sinclair? Kenneth’s father?‘ Ophelia thought to herself and was completely confused.
Ivy said, “Kenny, don’t you want to avenge your mother? Have you forgotten how your mother died? How she struggled through those nine years? Kenny, only by following the path I’ve paved for you, can you avenge your mother!”
As she spoke, Ivy’s eyes gradually went wild. She stared intently at Kenneth. “Kenny, Phoebe is your true choice. The woman by your side can’t help you at all. The Davidson family can help you. Listen to me because I’ll never harm you.”
These words, repeated over and over, seemed like brainwashing With that wild look in her eyes, anyone who didn’t know better might have thought she was hypnotizing Kenneth.
Kenneth looked into Ivy’s familiar gaze, and an overwhelming hatred surged uncontrollably within him. Through countless dark days and nights, he hated Victor, wishing he could kill him.
Ophelia could clearly feel Kenneth’s grip on her hand tightening bit by bit. He was using so much force that she could even sense him trembling involuntarily, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, with a fierce look in his eyes.
She shook his arm gently. “Kenneth? Kenneth!”
It was the first time she’d seen Kenneth like this, and her heart instantly felt a pang.
She was curious about what Ivy had done to Kenneth to cause him to lose control with just a few words.

She stood in front of Kenneth, her eyes clear and filled with an intimidating coldness.
She said, “Ms. Lawrence, no matter who you are, you have no right to decide someone else’s life. Kenny’s life is his own; it concerns no one else and doesn’t need anyone’s interference.”
Ivy sneered, glaring at the you
girl in front of her. “Shut up, you know nothing!”
Ivy’s wild look was completely unlike Kenneth’s mother. Grace’s expression was pure and clean, with eyes as clear as water, giving the impression of a gentle and kind woman at first glance
But Ivy in front of her had eyes filled with nothing but hatred.
