Chapter 106
He immediately patted her back and lifted her out of his arms, saying, “Stand up straight.”
There was someone outside, and he didn’t want to be seen.
Ophelia puffed her cheeks and felt a bit unhappy.
She walked behind him, feeling gloomy, and suddenly grabbed his big hand. “I just want everyone to know that you are my husband. I don’t care about anything else. Is that not okay?”
Winford paused for a moment, closed his eyes, and suddenly turned around, pulling her tightly into his arms.
“But I cared,” he said softly.
Such a wonderful her, with her heart and eyes filled with him, how could he bear to let her be talked about by others?
Once, Winford was autocratic and arrogant, only caring about what he wanted and never considering the feelings of others.
What did it matter if he was going to die? He still wanted everyone to know that this girl belonged to him!
But it was on her that he first experienced the feeling and emotion of wanting to protect someone.
In order for her to live like a normal person, he willingly restrained himself.
At the other end of the corridor, someone came, likely the person he was
scheduled to meet today. From a distance, the person displayed a flattering smile and eagerly walked quickly towards him.
Winford let go of the person in his arms and patted her head, “Go find your classmates, I have something to do.”
Ophelia was thinking about the words she had just heard, feeling a bit. dazed. Hearing this, she tugged at his sleeve and said, “Honey, let me be with you!”
The man’s handsome brows revealed a hint of helplessness. “I wanted to discuss serious matters with someone.”
“Is it something I couldn’t hear?”
“Not.”

“Then why can’t I go with you?” She shook his arm and looked at him. with her beautiful eyes, eager and pleading. “You just called me over, saying you had something to discuss with me as the hotel owner. I don’t care; I just want to follow you!”
The girl’s voice was soft and delicate, laced with a hint of coquetry. Winford had seen such a scene before; it was with a friend’s lover. At that time, he felt no stirrings in his heart, only indifference and annoyance, thinking that women were affected and unreasonable.
I also doubted my friend’s intelligence.
But now it was his turn. Looking at the person’s affectionate gaze and lingering eyes in front of him, he finally realized that his friend’s mind was probably just fine.
She couldn’t live without him and liked to cling to him.
This realization successfully pleased Winford.

“Okay,” he said.
“Mr. Winford!”
Henry walked over quickly, slightly bent forward, and greeted Winford with a beaming smile. When he saw Ophelia beside him, a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
“This was…?”
“The owner of the hotel was named Greene,” Winford said lightly, and then introduced to Ophelia, “Henry from Kingchester.”
Both sides introduced briefly, clearly not intending to allow them too
much contact.
Ophelia understood what he meant and nodded obediently, good.”
Henry also smiled and said, “Hello, Ms. Greene!”
“Henry is
But he misunderstood–there was another situation in the brief introduction, which was that the other party’s identity was insignificant and did not warrant serious attention.
As everyone knows, Mr. Winford was not fond of women, so why would he bring a beautiful girl along for this conversation?
Thinking that the person might have been prepared for him, Henry suddenly felt a bit restless.
As for the identity of the hotel owner? In front of Mr. Winford, what was a mere hotel owner worth!
So he didn’t take it to heart at all.
Ophelia noticed that the way Henry looked at her was somewhat

uncomfortable. She frowned and thought that since he was Winford’s appointment, she held back from saying anything.
She naturally sat down beside Winford in the reserved private room.
Henry, who was just about to invite her to sit beside him, felt a bit displeased upon seeing this. He thought to himself that women were indeed vain, she was clearly there to serve him, yet she chose to lean towards Mr. Winford, not even fearing to provoke Mr. Winford!
However, Winford surprisingly did not say anything; the words that were on the tip of his tongue could only be swallowed back down.
Henry came from Kingchester specifically to find Winford. Ophelia couldn’t understand what they were discussing; she only saw Henry respectfully reporting something to Winford the whole time.
She listened for a while and couldn’t help feeling a bit drowsy.
At first, I tried to hold on, but soon, my head began to…
