Gracie leaned forward, took her hand, and said softly, “Auntie, don’t get angry. Let’s send Tassach back
to the hospital first.”
Mrs. Conduibh then regained her sanity, turned her head to look at Tassach, and said softly, “Tassach,
go back to the hospital with Mom. Don’t frighten Mom like this. As long as you are good, I will never
intervene in your affairs anymore.”
Tassach glanced at Mrs. Conduibh, then moved his gaze to Ophelia, and said, “Ophelia, can I say a
few words to you? This time I rushed out of the hospital to see you. It was my lack of consideration. I’m
sorry. Don’t be angry.”
Ophelia sighed and said, “Tassach, you go to the hospital with Mrs. Conduibh first. When your body
recovers, we still have many opportunities to meet.”
Tassach looked at her deeply, “Ophelia, do you think I’m a big trouble?”
Before Ophelia spoke, Madeleine spoke first, “Jinx, congratulations, you know your place. If you still
think of Ophelia, go back to the hospital as soon as possible. Don’t let Ophelia bear all the blame for
you because of your willfulness.”
Tassach’s eyes darkened.
Ophelia pulled at Madeleine’s clothes and said to Tassach, “Tassach, you go to the hospital first. Your
body has not recovered yet, so you shouldn’t shuttle back and forth between two places.”
Tassach nodded.
“Ophelia, you accompany me back to the hospital.”
Without waiting for Ophelia to make a decision, Mrs. Conduibh grabbed her hand and pleaded,
“Ophelia, I beg you, please come back to the hospital with us. You have known him for many years.
You should be able to give a face to him, right?”
Ophelia hesitated and nodded in the end.
The final result was that Madeleine and Ophelia accompanied Tassach to the hospital, and Tassach
was rarely willful. He must go in Madeleine’s car. Mrs. Conduibh originally wanted to follow them, but
Madeleine refused, “ Mrs. Conduibh, my car is so small that it can’t hold you.”
Tassach also spoke, “Mom, you go with Gracie by taxi.”
Mrs. Conduibh had to get out of the car bitterly.
Madeleine drove the car irritably and couldn’t help but mumble on the road, “Jinx, do you think you are
still young enough to do such a wayward and childish thing? Ophelia is your friend, but she is not your
mother. Can you not use her kindness to do something that would embarrass her?”
Tassach said, “Sorry.”
Madeleine patted the steering wheel lightly and sneered, “Jinx, this is really your style. Do something
wrong and wash your hands of it. Then just say sorry insincerely and think everything will be all right. If
‘Sorry’ is useful, why do we still need the police?”
Tassach didn’t look well, and he slowly clenched the hands on his thighs.
Ophelia patted Madeleine, then turned to Tassach, and said, “Tassach, Madeleine is just worried about
me. Don’t mind her words. She doesn’t have much malice.”
Tassach glanced at her apologetically and said, “Ophelia, do you hate me like this?”
Ophelia restrained her smile and said honestly, “I don’t hate it, but I think we should maintain distance. I
think Miss King is a good choice. You might as well get along with her.”
Tassach’s face went completely dark.
“Ophelia, I think you know my mind better than anyone else.”
Ophelia sighed, “Tassach, we can never be together. Why do you insist?”
“But you didn’t say that when I was in a coma.”
“I think what I said was quite modest, and you were in a coma at the time. Can you really hear me?”
“I still have a little bit of consciousness.”
Madeleine gave Ophelia a strange look and said, “Darling, what did you say? You don’t have an
unknown agreement with Jimmy, do you?”
Ophelia shook her head.
Madeleine drove the car steadily and said, “Jinx, it’s your business that you love Ophelia, but please
don’t act like a koala, OK? Ophelia has a husband. She can’t be with you .”
Tassach simply closed his eyes.
Madeleine looked at him in the rear-view mirror and didn’t say more nonsense.
After half an hour’s ride, the three finally arrived at the hospital, and Gracie’s car also arrived.
Madeleine said, “Tassach, get off . Ophelia and I won’t go upstairs.”
Tassach looked pleadingly at Ophelia, “Ophelia, you go upstairs with me.”
Ophelia sighed, and before Madeleine could say more irritating words, she said, “Let’s go.”
Madeleine gave her an oblique look, and Ophelia had to pretend not to see it.
The five people entered the hospital and waited for the elevator. When the elevator reached the first
floor, they saw a man and a woman walking out in arms. Ophelia froze, and the man who was hugging
the woman also froze.
“Zachariah, it’s Miss Ophelia. Oho! The man next to her seems to be Madeleine?” Cora, who was held
in Zachariah’s arms, said hypocritically.
Zachariah’s gaze was filled with complex emotions when he looked at Ophelia.
