Chapter 236: Deep Talk

As the water cascaded over Ophelia's body, washing away the remnants of their passionate night, Leonard couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt mixed with desire. He knew that their relationship was unconventional and fraught with challenges and complexities, but seeing Ophelia in such a vulnerable state made him acutely aware of the depth of his feelings for her.

Despite his initial reluctance, Leonard found himself drawn to Ophelia, captivated by her beauty, intelligence, and fiery spirit.

She had ignited something within him, awakening desires he never knew existed, and he couldn't deny the magnetic pull between them.

Lost in his thoughts, Leonard barely noticed when the servants finished bathing Ophelia and discreetly left the room, giving them some much-needed privacy. He turned his attention back to Ophelia, his gaze softening as he approached her slowly.
