Chapter 506 Either Or
Ophelia became famous, and Finnegan also benefited from it. As the son-in-law of Country F's royal family, this title directly added to Finnegan's prestige.
Rhodes kept talking on the phone. Ophelia couldn't get a word in, so she switched to speakerphone. Lynn's call also came in, keeping Ophelia busy.
Finnegan smiled and gestured, indicating he would wait for Ophelia downstairs at the restaurant for breakfast.
Ophelia nodded, signaling Finnegan to go ahead while she freshened up. While Ophelia was in the bathroom freshening up, she continued to answer phone calls. After Rhodes' call, there was Lynn's call.
Ophelia explained one by one and they were all surprised by the news about them. Some were happy for Ophelia, while others were consumed by jealousy.
Niamh, who saw the news, was extremely jealous.
"Why is Ophelia so lucky? How did she transform into a princess of Country F's royal family?" Niamh found it unbelievable and complained to Jesse.
Jesse was staring at the news on his phone. After the Country F's royal family announcement, both domestic and foreign ministries reported the matter and congratulated Country F's royal family.
There wasn't much information about Ophelia in the news due to privacy protection, with some details deliberately concealed.
Ophelia's titles increased. She was the head of Parks Corporation, the wife of the president of Abbott's Corporation, and the princess lost to the Public of Country F's royal family.
These identities made netizens envious.
She was destined to have a life of wealth and nobility.
First, she had a wealthy husband, then she acknowledged a rich mother, and now she discovered her biological father was a member of Country F's royal family.
Glancing at the infuriated Niamh, Jesse said, "Niamh, why don't we return to Eurona? I'll take care of you, and we can get married in Eurona."
Jesse felt a bit hesitant. With his capabilities and the assets left by Natalie, he and Niamh could live well.
Last time when Niamh expressed her feelings for him, Jesse felt that Niamh liked him, which is why he proposed marriage. However, upon hearing the word "marriage", Niamh widened her eyes. In her view, it was his wishful thinking.
In essence, Jesse had nothing. Everything he had was given by Natalie and Niamh.
'A penniless man wanting to marry me?' she thought.
Niamh held Jesse in contempt, but she dared not show it. She had yet to utilize this pawn fully.
"Jesse, I also want to go to Eurona with you, but I can't leave now," Niamh said in a pitiful tone."You've seen it too. My mother is seriously ill, the police and Ophelia suspect Dovie's death, so I can't leave later. Jesse, only you can save me." Niamh's hand caressed Jesse's chest, circling gently, tempting him.
Jesse was captivated by her seduction. "How can I help you?"
"As long as Ophelia is dead, no one will bother me anymore." Niamh's eyes flashed with malice. "If Ophelia doesn't die, then it will be me who dies. Jesse, you won’t just stand by and let something happen to me, will you? Deacon's target is Finnegan. My target is Ophelia. Now that Ophelia is a royal princess, once she returns to France, if she wants to get rid of me, it will be as simple as squashing an ant."
"Why would Ophelia harm you?" Jesse asked. "Wasn't it your mother who caused Dovie's death? Your mother has already confessed. She shouldn't come after you."
"Ophelia envies me and resents me. I previously occupied her position. She hates me. She even blamed Dovie's death on me. She definitely won't let me off," Niamh said half-truthfully. "Jesse, as long as you get rid of Ophelia, I'll marry you and go back to Eurona with you, and even give you a child. How about that?"
Niamh used her foot to entice Jesse, knowing that the allure of beauty was always effective.
Jesse hesitated.
Niamh was angry. "You couldn't get Warmie out or kill Ophelia. Jesse, you said you liked me. Was that a lie?"
Jesse tried to explained, "It's not that I didn't agree, but I didn't have the opportunity. The Abbott family guards Warmie too closely, and I haven't had a chance to make a move. And now Ophelia is royalty, so she also has bodyguards around her."
Niamh grew angry. "I'll give you a choice, Warmie or Ophelia. Pick one, or get out of my sight."
