Chapter 127

Seeing the man’s figure by the window, her beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she instantly revealed a bright and joyful smile. “Honey! I came back!” She waved at him and happily jumped up and down a couple of times.

Upstairs, it was as if the glaciers had melted in an instant, and spring had arrived with flowers blooming. The man’s expression changed from clear to overcast in an instant, and his bony fingers gently tapped on the floor-to-ceiling window, signaling her to come up quickly.

Graham had long been accustomed to Mr. Winford’s emotions being influenced by his wife. At that moment, he remained unfazed and unbothered, secretly relieved that Ophelia had returned just in time. Alfred was extremely shocked and secretly gritted his teeth. Did that woman really have such a great influence on Mr. Winford? What about Elva?

In less than half a minute, Ophelia ran through the door. “Honey!” She directly jumped into the man’s arms, playfully wrapping her arms around his waist, and sweetly said, “I missed you so much!”

In Winford’s pitch-black eyes, there flowed a tenderness that he himself had not even noticed. He supported the girl’s shoulders in his arms and said in a cold tone, “It was only two and a half hours.”

Graham: “Who was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, staring, an hour ago?” He didn’t say…

“I missed you for two and a half hours too!” Ophelia said, hugging the man’s strong waist and humming. She looked up at his face, which was so good-looking it could rival game modeling, and her heart started to race uncontrollably. Her husband was really handsome!

Winford, feeling his heart soften under her gaze, casually pulled her away from his embrace and, without changing his expression, said, “Let Alfred take a look at your hand.”

Ophelia then noticed Alfred beside her and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. Wasn’t she sent to the frontier by her husband? She actually returned so quickly; it seemed she had some skills after all! But how did such a person end up falling for someone like Elva, who wasn’t very bright? It was truly puzzling!

“Look!” she casually extended the chubby little finger that had been wrapped up. Alfred was about to cut off the gauze. Ophelia immediately retracted her chubby fingers and frowned her beautiful brows in displeasure.

“What are you doing? This was personally wrapped for me by my husband. I still need to wrap it back exactly the same way later! If you cut it badly, how am I going to fix it?”

Alfred’s face turned black. He felt that Ophelia was doing it on purpose! She disliked him, so she intentionally created trouble for him! He opened his mouth to curse, but then he remembered that last time it was this woman who had caused him trouble, resulting in Mr. Winford punishing him. Now that he had finally managed to return to Mr. Winford’s side, how could he fall for her scheme again!

I could only resentfully complain, “Mr. Winford-”

“Don’t make a fuss.” Winford said with a hint of helplessness in his tone, as he gently patted the girl’s head. His eyes and tone conveyed a subtle sense of indulgence. “The bandage can’t be used again once it’s been used. I’ll wrap a new one for you later. For now, let Alfred take a look at your wound.”

Ophelia nodded obediently this time, “Oh!” He extended his finger again and generously said, “Then go ahead and cut!”

Alfred found it somewhat hard to believe. Mr. Winford wasn’t the one who hated women making unreasonable demands the most? This woman made such an unreasonable request, and not only was he not angry, but he even tried to coax her?!

“Cut it.” Ophelia leaned against Winford, lifted her delicate chin, and said leisurely. She saw through what Alfred was thinking at a glance, and a malicious curve appeared at the corner of her lips without any concealment.

“That’s right, Mr. Winford spoiled me, never got angry with me. Not convinced? Go ahead and bite me!”

Seeing her infuriating expression, Alfred was almost driven to death! He took a deep breath, barely suppressing his emotions and resisting the urge to hit her, as he cut open her bandage. Then, looking at her wound that might heal a little later, he fell silent.

-Is this the particularly serious wound that Mr. Winford specifically had him come to see?

“Alfred?” Seeing that he did not move, Winford frowned discontentedly.

Alfred: “I immediately took care of it for the lady!”

Looking at Alfred’s handsome face, which was almost twisted, Ophelia felt extremely happy; she thought she could manage to eat another bowl of rice later!

Ophelia had classes in the afternoon. After having lunch and taking a nice nap with Winford, she happily went to school.
