Chapter 48 Lia Was Only Gentle With Me, And That Was Enough
However, Ophelia did not notice his abnormal behavior, she was so upset by Cullen’s words that she completely failed to notice the two people who suddenly appeared at the door.
Without thinking, she stepped forward and grabbed Cullen’s hair, slamming his head heavily onto the table!
“You were the one who was short–lived! Your whole family were short-
lived!”
Hit it again.
“My husband would live a long life! Even if the grass on your grave grew three meters high, he would still live just fine!”
“With a mouth like that, your mom must not have taught you how to speak, right? Today, I will teach you properly!”
The decisiveness of the action, the ruthlessness of the strike, and the coldness of the words stunned the three of them. None of them had expected that a seemingly delicate figure could possess such powerful explosive strength!
Cullen didn’t react for a moment.
He screamed in agony, shocked as he thought, “Is Ophelia really like this?! She shouldn’t be a soft girl?!”
At the door, Graham said: ”
Ah, is this the wife of Mr. Winford, who was worried about being
bullied”
He quietly glanced at Mr. Winford.
When Winford heard Cullen’s words, his expression was gloomy, but at that moment, looking at his little wife’s fierce appearance, the heaviness in his heart seemed to be gently blown away by a breeze, gradually.
dissipating.
He gazed intently at that graceful figure; at that moment, she was the only color in his eyes.
Since he fell ill, he had seen countless gazes and heard countless taunts. This was the first time someone had stood up so angrily to defend him.
Cullen’s head was bleeding from the bump she gave him, but he felt that his Lia was so adorable.
Ophelia’s gaze was cold and fierce, her small face filled with anger. Looking at Cullen, whose head was covered in blood, she still felt unsatisfied and was about to kick him a couple more times. Just then, she inadvertently looked up-
I cursed!
“Ah!!”
She lost control of her strength and almost tore Cullen’s scalp off, causing him to scream in agony.
Ophelia shuddered for a moment, and with a swift motion, she quickly pulled her hand back, while hurriedly concealing the expression on her face. She swiftly lowered one foot that had been resting on the stool, instantly regaining her ladylike demeanor.
“Old man, husband? How did you come here?” She put her hands behind her back, looking very obedient, and there was a hint of confusion

flickering in her crystal–clear, beautiful eyes.
Winford’s gaze paused on her for a moment, then shifted downward, landing on Cullen on the ground. “He…”
“Has nothing to do with me!” Ophelia denied quickly without thinking, and hurriedly took a step back.
It seemed as if Cullen, with his head full of blood on the ground, really had nothing to do with her.
The air was exceptionally quiet.
Ophelia felt extremely guilty inside and quietly glanced up at the man.
It was over, it was over. Would he think she was too cruel?!
It’s all Cullen’s fault! Why did he shout so loudly just now? It must have been his voice that attracted Winford!
With a murderous gaze, sharp as a knife, it fiercely shot a glance at Cullen.
Seeing her small movements, a hint of a smile crossed Winford’s dark eyes. “Come here,” he said.
Ophelia nervously made her way over to him.
“Hubby…”
She was afraid that Winford would get angry and would dislike her. however, just as she got closer, her hand was suddenly held.
The man’s warm palm enveloped her hand as he looked down, his handsome face slightly darkened, and said, “It’s dirty.”
Two drops of Cullen’s blood splashed onto the back of her fair hand.

“…Huh?” Ophelia, who was deep in thought, completely did not expect this development and stared blankly as she looked up.
Winford reached out to the back, and Graham, very perceptively, handed over a snow–white handkerchief. Winford took it and personally wiped her hands clean, his movements gentle and meticulous.
Then Ophelia heard him say, “Next time let someone else do it, don’t do it yourself, it will tire you out and also get your hands dirty.”
Ophelia:
She was stunned on the spot, looking at the man in front of her in disbelief.
Winford: “What happened?”
“You, you didn’t think I was too, um… not gentle, did you?” she said hesitantly, stumbling over her words.
“I don’t think so,” Winford said with an expression unchanged. “Lia’s kindness towards me was enough; she didn’t need to be that way with others.”
As for Cullen?
Thinking of what he had just heard, Winford’s gaze swept over, and a hint of coldness flickered in his eyes, as if he were looking at a dead person.
For many years, no one dared to covet his possessions.
As Cullen had just gotten up, he unexpectedly met Winford’s gaze, which was filled with murderous intent, causing his face to turn pale instantly and sweat to pour down like rain.
Hearing Winford’s response, Ophelia was overjoyed and immediately lost her timid demeanor. She complained aggrievedly, “He just spoke ill of

you; otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered to hit him!”
The little face in front of Cullen, filled with fierce determination, was charming and delightful at that moment.
She asked him, “Honey, how did you end up here?”
Winford said, “I happened to have an appointment with someone over here.”
Ophelia had no doubt at all, and she was very happy, “Then we could go. home together!”
She happily pushed his wheelchair outside, but then remembered something and hurriedly ran back.
Cullen was startled when he saw her suddenly turn around, feeling a sharp pain throughout his body.
Seeing his pathetic appearance, Ophelia scoffed disdainfully, “With a look like that, do you even dare to think that I would like you? Hmph!”
The more she looked, the more she felt that she must have been blind in her past life. Was this really it? She could easily pin down a useless. person with one hand. What exactly did she see in him?
Cullen’s face turned pale with anger, but he was also afraid of Winford at the door, so he didn’t dare to retort. He even remained on guard, fearing that Ophelia would take action against him again.
But after saying that, Ophelia was unwilling to even glance at him again. She ran back to her previous spot, picked up the cufflink she had left behind, and returned to Winford’s side with a light step.
“Honey, let’s go!”
Winford’s gaze, as deep as a cold pool, glanced at Cullen, who was
Lia was Only Gentle With Me. And That Was Enough
huddled like a quail and was trying hard to minimize his presence.
“Mr. Winford…” Cullen’s forehead was beaded with large drops of sweat, and his voice was trembling.
Just a moment ago, they had boasted shamelessly, being as arrogant as they could, but now they were breathing cautiously.
Winford said indifferently, “Let’s go,” as he withdrew his gaze.
Ophelia actually didn’t want to let Cullen off so easily, but she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, he would say something inappropriate and upset Winford, so she could only temporarily suppress her thoughts.
Forget it, there would be plenty of time to deal with this junk later, I shouldn’t waste time with my husband!
Seeing that he had unexpectedly escaped a disaster, Cullen let out a sudden sigh of relief. Once the people left, he instantly slumped down in the chair, feeling completely drained.
However, he did not notice that when he left, Winford seemed to unintentionally gesture to Graham.
Graham glanced back and silently accepted the order.
