Zachariah's voice immediately changed, “Where are you now?”
Ophelia didn’t know what Cora said on the other end of the phone, and Zachariah suppressed his
monstrous anger and said, “Wait there, I'll be right over.”
After saying that, he got out of bed in a hurry, put his clothes on, and walked toward the door. Ophelia
followed him, put the nightgown on hurriedly, and said, “Mr. Chambers, where are you going?”
“Something happened to Cora. I'm going to take a look. You can sleep by yourself.”
After saying that, he opened the door and left directly. Ophelia followed him and intended to go with
him, but she didn't expect that Zachariah wouldn't give her this opportunity at all.
Zachariah drove the car as fast as he could, and within half an hour, he rushed to the bar Cora
mentioned earlier.
After parking the car, he looked at the flashy bar, and couldn't help but frown. He didn't think much
about it and walked in. Inside the bar, he saw a few gangsters dragging Cora out.
Zachariah walked over in a stride, his eyes turned red. Then he raised his hand and punched one of
the gangsters to pull Cora behind him, and asked worriedly, “Cora, are you okay?”
Cora looked at him and suddenly cried out in anguish, “Zachariah, why are you here so late? I was so
afraid that I would never see you again.”
Zachariah wanted to take Cora into his arms and soothed her properly, but there was a group of
gangsters in front of him.
“Hey, who are you?” The punk, who was beaten just now, said angrily.
“Boss, don't care about who he is. He is well-dressed. He should be from a wealthy family. Why don't
we arrest him and get a sum of money from his family? It will be enough for us to live a good life. “
“Then why don't you go?”
After the leader of gangsters said so, the gangsters rushed up. Zachariah pushed Cora aside and said,
“Hide in a safe place now.”
Cora retreated into the crowd, while Zachariah dealt with the gangsters with ease and said, “I've
already called the police. If you don't want to spend a few days in jail, you can just mess around here.”
The group of gangsters looked at each other, and one of them asked, “Boss, what should we do?”
The leader said, “Why don't you leave now? Are you waiting for the police to come and arrest you?”
As the words fell, the group of gangsters ran away.
Cora rushed over, crying distractedly, “Zachariah, are you okay? It is all my fault. If I did not come to the
bar, you wouldn’t have been beaten by them.”
Zachariah put his arm around her waist and said, “It's too chaotic here, let's go out first.”
Zachariah paid for they smashed tables and chairs in the bar, and only then embraced Cora and left.
When they reached the car, Zachariah fastened her seat belt and said with a somewhat ugly face,
“Cora, do you have any injuries on your body?”
Cora shook her head.
Zachariah checked her body and was relieved to see that there was nothing wrong with her except a
little bruise on her wrist.
Cora looked at him timidly and said with grievance, “Zachariah, are you angry?”
Zachariah nodded and said coldly, “Yes, I am angry. Why do you come to a bar in the middle of the
night? I'm even angrier at you for not asking someone to accompany you?”
Cora sobbed and said, “Sorry, Zachariah, I just feel sad in my heart. I didn't expect that after staying
abroad for four years, the bar has become so chaotic. I called you earlier to ask you out. But Miss Lowe
answered the phone. She said you want to go bed with her. And she also said that I am a mistress.
Upon hearing her words, I feel so uncomfortable. We love each other, but why I am a mistress now? I
was so confused. I thought I would come to the bar for a drink, but I didn't expect things to turn out this
way.”
Zachariah's face turned sullen, “You called me?”
Cora nodded and pretended to be innocent and pitiful, “I called you, but Miss Lowe said you were in
shower. Zachariah, I didn't mean to break up your marriage. I just love you too much. If you think I'm a
mistress, trying to break up your marriage, then I'll go back to Europe.”
Zachariah's face became gloomier, and said as he looked ahead, “I will solve the matter of Ophelia,
you should not think all these nonsense.”
Then, Cora asked, “Zachariah, are you angry with me?”
Zachariah shook his head before replying, “How can I be angry with you? You’d better stay away from
bars in the future. If you really want to go, just call me and I will accompany you. You are so beautiful. I
don’t want to see you suffer.”
Cora nodded and said, “Zachariah, I'm sorry, I won't do this again in the future.”
Zachariah said, “You must be frightened. I'll send you back first.”
“Zachariah, send me to the hotel room we stayed previous.”
“You are not going home?”
“It's too late now, and I might wake up my parents if I go back. They will worry about me.” Cora said,
like an obedient girl.
Zachariah nodded and drove to the hotel they stayed earlier the day.
They took the elevator to the twentieth floor. After opening the door, Zachariah said, “Cora, you’d better
have a good rest. I will go back first.”
Cora hugged Zachariah from behind and said with a crying tone, “Zachariah, don't leave me alone. I
was almost molested by those gangsters just now. I'm so frightened. Will you stay with
me?”
“You are not going home?”
“It's too late now, and | might wake up my parents if | go back. They will worry about me.” Cora said,
