Chapter 8

In the bedroom, Ophelia sat on the newly made big bed.

Sarah, who was arranging her belongings, sighed and couldn’t help but say, “Miss, you caused such a big commotion today. I’m afraid that from now on…”

Maddox was a confused person, with his heart completely biased towards Vera, an outsider.

Zachary was a simple-minded fool who only saw the kindness and weakness on the surface of Vera.

In this family, the eldest brother, Whittaker Tudor, was indifferent to everyone and didn’t care much about anyone except Ophelia’s second brother, Sprague Tudor.

But Sprague had been working alone outside for several years, and he only came back a few times a year.

Nowadays, Tudor family is almost under Vera’s control.

Sarah was worried and full of concerns. She said, “Miss, you suddenly took out the will left by the lady before her death today. Now that Mr. Tudor knows about it, he will probably find a way to make you transfer your shares to him…”

Halfway through, Sarah immediately covered her mouth. How could a servant talk about the family affairs behind their backs?

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Miss. I absolutely didn’t mean to instigate anything!”

Sarah kept apologizing. She thought that Ophelia would be as firm as ever in defending Maddox, but she just yawned lazily and said, “I won’t give him this opportunity.”

Sarah was surprised and happy when she heard this. Her young lady…really has changed.

“Well, everything is packed. You just came back from the hospital and need to rest well. I’ll go to the kitchen to stew some soup to nourish your body!”

“Okay, thank you, Sarah.”

Ophelia smiled and watched Sarah leave.

The door was closed again. Ophelia looked around and picked up the laptop on the table.

She turned it on and inserted a USB drive.

As expected…

The contents inside had been read by someone. And now, all the contents were completely erased!

Ophelia’s face revealed a hint of coldness between her eyebrows and eyes.

“Young Master Gonzales is really interesting,” she thought to herself. He had claimed to return the U disk that she had dropped, but had also taken the opportunity to tamper with it!

With a sullen face, Ophelia was about to close her computer when suddenly, two alert sounds came from the device. The next second, two videos appeared in the U disk. One was the evidence that she had downloaded through hacking, and the other…

Before she could understand what was happening, a line of words appeared on the computer screen: “I told you, I am a good person.”

Ophelia: “…”

She had just insulted his ancestors a moment ago, but now Gonzales, who had a private phone number that many people could not even get, was standing in front of her in this “clever” way.

Ophelia blinked. Did this man want her to apologize to him on the phone? Dream on!

As long as she didn’t admit it, she never insulted anyone!

With a raised eyebrow, Ophelia quickly operated on the keyboard, and in just a few seconds, the program was forcibly closed, and the words disappeared from the screen.

After putting the U disk away, Ophelia got up and went to the bathroom to change into clean clothes.

In front of the foggy mirror, Ophelia carefully examined her current face. It was delicate and flawless, with bright and attractive eyes.

She had shed the courage and aggressiveness that she had gained from fighting in life-and-death situations and now had a hint of innocence and naivety that a young lady from a wealthy family would have.

What a coincidence and fate it was that her reincarnated body looked exactly like her original one…

Ophelia lowered her eyes and turned her back to the mirror. Her snow-white back was as smooth as a jade, with no trace of the ugly scar that she had on her back in the past.

Not bad.

She pulled the corners of her mouth and let out a self-deprecating smile.

At night, a gentle early summer breeze brushed against their faces.

Samuel lazily leaned on his lounge chair, occasionally swiping his slender fingertips across his phone screen, but the anticipated call still hadn’t come.

Tyler advised, “Young Master Gonzales, it’s windy on the rooftop, and the old lady has asked me to remind you again. You should come down now, as you can’t afford to catch a cold from the wind.”

Samuel coughed lightly a couple of times but showed no intention of moving.

Tyler was getting anxious and blurted out without thinking, “Young Master Gonzales, why do you care so much about that infamous Miss Five from the Tudor family? No matter what, she couldn’t be the girl you met ten years ago! We’ve investigated it, and that little girl from back then, she’s been dead for a long time…”

As soon as Tyler finished speaking, the wind on the rooftop seemed to freeze. Samuel slowly raised his eyes, and there was no warmth in his dazzlingly beautiful eyes, as cold as an abyss, making people shiver.

“I have been indulging you all a bit too much lately,” he said in a slow and deliberate tone, and a hint of murderous intent emanated from him, making the atmosphere so oppressive that it was almost suffocating.

Tyler’s legs went weak, and he immediately knelt down.

“Sorry, Young Master Gonzales, I misspoke!”

This is a taboo that cannot be mentioned by anyone!

Samuel had no expression on his face, but his tone was unusually cold.

 “Go and receive your punishment, get lost.”

Tyler felt pardoned and hastily got up from the ground, swiftly rolling away.

Under the lonely starlight and deep night,

Samuel’s slender and tall figure was stretched out by the moonlight. No one knew what he was thinking, but could only feel the oppressive and boundless loneliness spreading around.

…………

The sky broke at dawn, and it was seven o’clock in the morning.

Ophelia was sweating all over, slightly panting after a vigorous exercise.

The only drawback of her body now was that she was too delicate. In order to return to the peak of her extraordinary skills in the past, she had to put in a hundred times the effort and sweat.

Ophelia exhaled a breath, wiped the sweat off and prepared to go back to her room to take a shower and change into clean clothes.

But as she walked to the stairs, she met Vera face to face.

“Ophelia, why did you get up so early today, did you go to exercise?” Vera smiled sweetly, showing no grudges, as if yesterday’s unpleasantness had never happened.

Ophelia didn’t even bother to look at her and walked straight ahead.

But Vera’s voice came from behind, with a hint of subtle flaunting, “But Fernando only likes gentle and obedient girls, and doesn’t like those who are too strong, it really makes men have no sense of protection.”
