12:33 Sat,
Since he was 10, Keh had been around such a woman, who must have sown countless seeds of hatred in him.
No wonder Keh''s methods were sometimes so ruthless and savage, as if he turned into apletely different person.
Ivy said, "Kenny, listen to me, I won''t hurt you. You need to avenge your mother''s suffering. Do you know what she gave up for that heartless man? Kenny..." Ophelia said to Keh, "Keh, can we go home?"
Keh thought, ''Go home?'' The two words struck Keh''s heart deeply.
Hearing the familiar voice, Keh''s chaotic thoughts began to calm. He lowered his gaze, his long eyes turning a deep red, making others feel a pang of sympathy.
"Okay. Go home." Keh ced hisrge hand on Ophelia''s head, realizing he had lost control earlier, he quickly checked the hand in his palm.
His heart tightened; the back of Ophelia''s slender, hand was flushed red from his grip.
"It''s okay. Let''s go," Ophelia said steadily, as she took his distinct hand and led him away without looking back.
"Kenny..." Ivy called out unwillingly from behind, her eyes wide open.
Phoebe stepped forward. "Ivy, it seems some things just can''t be forced. I think it''s better to let it go."
"Phoebe, you can''t give up on Kenny. Don''t you love him anymore?" Ivy said, holding her hand. "Phoebe, you grew up with Kenny. You''re more suitable for him than that woman and can help him more."- Phoebe watched as they drove away; she had liked Keh from the moment she first met him.
He was shy, quiet, and didn''t like to interact with people. Whatever Ivy told him to do, he did.
Later, even though his eyes were full of hatred, he''d always give her a gentle smile when he saw her.
She had stayed by his side for over ten years, but in just over a year since he returned to that country, he already had someone else.
Of course, she couldn''t just ept it. "Ivy, what should I do?"
*****
Ophelia was driving, while Keh sat silently in the passenger seat, gazing out the window.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
All these years, his sole aim had been to make the Sinir family pay, to make Victor suffer. But until...
"Why don''t we head back to Heloria tonight?" Ophelia suggested steering the car with one hand, her fingers intertwined with the man beside her.
Keh nced at Ophelia next to him, and ever since she came into his life, it was no longer defined by just that one purpose.
"Alright." He tightened his grip on her hand and kissed the back of it softly.
Evening, at the international airport. The two boarded the ne back home.
"Wait, wait, wait! Hold on!" Just as the cabin door was about to close, a shadow swiftly dashed inside.
This was Keh''s private jet; there shouldn''t be any other passengers.
Ophelia looked back to see Noali in a ck coat, carrying an old-fashioned suitcase, talking with the flight attendant.
"I know someone inside, really, Keh, Keh Sinir! I''m headed to Heloria too, could I catch a ride?" Noah''s voice was mature and husky, a kind of sexy low tone, yet his way of speaking was like an edgy teenager. On that usually aloof and cold face, there appeared a look of someone trying to get a deal, his ck eyes blinking cutely.
Noah said to Ophelia, "Hey kid, tell your dad, oops, I mean your husband, to let mee along. I promise I''ll leave as soon as we get to Heloria and won''t be a bother."
Ophelia was speechless. She looked at Keh. "Dad... oops! Honey, should we let him up?"
"Tell him to shut up." Keh frowned, just hearing that goof''s voice irritated him. Sometimes he wondered if he should have just left his brain as it was.
Ophelia nced at Noah. Noah pressed his lips together, nodded eagerly, and made a zipping gesture with his fingers before. quietly settling into the corner of the back row.
The ne took off. Noah satfortably at the back, thinking that Keh couldn''t just toss him out mid-flight, so he started talking.
"Hey, Miss, could I get a free drink?"
"It''s too hot, could you turn down the air conditioning a bit?"
"Got any good movies I can watch?"
"Oh, thanks, thanks..."
"Wow! This airne meal is really tasty, can I have another serving? And could you pack two more to-go for me before wend, please?" "Tasty! Keh, what do you think?"
"Hey kid, I have a yogurt here. Want it? I don''t drink this stuff."
"This yogurt tastes pretty good!"
"Are you two not having your yogurts? If not, I''ll take them."
The long flight and the dull cabin felt less dreary with Noah''s cheeky voice in the air.
Ophelia watched as Noah sprawled out on the seat, curiosity piqued. "What was Noah like before he injured his head?"
"Interested in other men, are you?" Keh looked down at her, his gaze returning to its usual state.
She still preferred him like this, even with his strong possessiveness and jealousy, because this was his true self, not needing
to hold back or be restrained around her.
"Just curious, tell me about it." Ophelia grinned, since neither of them could sleep anyway.
Keh pressed his lips together, staying silent, with a slight tilt of his chin.
Seeing his proud expression, Ophelia got a bit annoyed. "Fine, don''t tell me. I''m not interested anyway."
"His original name is Noah West. He''s brothers with Ronin and Adams West. The head of the West family is the president of Heloria, and before this, Noah was the heir." 878%
Ophelia''s eyes widened, bright and doe-like, as she thought of countless possibilities, none as surprising as this one.
The president was the highest political position in Heloría. She couldn''t resist ncing at Noah again. But her head was forced to turn back by Keh.
Ophelia asked, "What about him now?"
"He severed all ties with the West family a long time ago. I''m not sure why, and he doesn''t remember anything about it himself."
Ophelia thought, ''How can he forget everything?''
"A few years ago, he had an ident that caused a serious head injury. He was in aa for a year and a half, and after waking up from treatment, he couldn''t remember anything." Concern showed in Ophelia''s eyes. "Could Scott also..."
"If Scott forgets everything, it might not be such a bad thing." Keh''s words were like a soothing balm, making her feel much more at ease.
Just as she rxed, the sight of Keh''s stunningly handsome face made her heart skip a beat.
Ophelia curled her lips. "What''s up?" She reached out to touch his cheek, finding it even softer than a girl''s skin.
"In the future, would you prefer to live in Mgia or Denex?"
She thought, ''Is he giving me a choice? Just the day before, he told me that we will be living in Mgia and to get used to it, and now he is letting me decide!''
"As long as I''m with you, I can live anywhere, but I still prefer Denex." Because she still had some things she needed to finish there. Their lips gradually met. Suddenly, a long yawn came from behind, interrupting the two at the seat.
"Keh, are we almost there?" Noah lifted the window cover, but it was pitch-ck outside, making it impossible to see anything-
