Ophelia let go of her thoughts and leaned on his arms with peace of mind.
Zachariah patted her back and said, “It’s getting late, let’s go to bed.”
Ophelia nodded, buried her head in his arms, feeling relieved like never before, and quickly fell asleep.
Zachariah just quietly looked at her sleeping face. He raised his hand and rubbed her fragile skin
carefully, and said, “Silly woman, sometimes I really don’t know what to do with you. What should I do
with you? I don’t know if I fell in love with you, but I suddenly felt very comfortable to be together with a
silly woman like you, and I don’t want to let you go so easily.”
It was his heartfelt feelings. He really didn’t know what to do with Ophelia. If it were before, he could
still give her a large sum of money to divorce her, but now, he suddenly felt that using money to end
their almost five-year marriage was actually an insult to Ophelia.
Zachariah’s thoughts were interrupted by a ringing sound. He picked it up and saw that it was from Mrs.
Fletcher. He subconsciously frowned, and hung up on Mrs. Fletcher’s call, and turned the phone off.
Zachariah placed his mobile phone on the table and went to sleep with Ophelia around his arms.
The next day, Ophelia woke up in Zachariah’s arms. She couldn’t help but laugh when she saw
Zachariah asleep with his fringe a little upturned. She playfully squeezed Zachariah’s nose, and when
Zachariah was about to wake up, she let go of her hand.
Ophelia teased Zachariah for a while before she got up and went into the bathroom to freshen herself
up. She put on a simple and elegant white skirt and went downstairs.
Mrs. Miriam had already prepared breakfast in the kitchen.
Ophelia walked in and said with a smile, “Mrs. Miriam, what do you have for breakfast today?”
Mrs. Miriam looked at her with a loving smile from an elder, “Young Madam you’re awake? Did you
sleep well last night?”
Ophelia nodded.
She smiled and said, “It smells good, did you make porridge?”
Mrs. Miriam nodded and said, “I went to the SM Market this morning to buy a black chicken and made
some black chicken porridge for you.”
Ophelia gave her a warm hug.
“Mrs. Miriam, you’re the best!”
Mrs. Miriam heartily laughed and said, “Young Madam, you’re almost a mother, yet you are still so
childish.”
Ophelia smiled and said, “Mrs. Miriam, you’re just like my biological mother. Hence, it is normal to be
coquettish in front of you. Don’t you like it?”
“Of course, I like it,” Mrs. Miriam asked lovingly, “Did Young Master come back for the night yesterday?”
Ophelia nodded.
“He is still sleeping upstairs.”
Mrs. Miriam was a little relieved, “Young Madam, the Young Master is busy with work. Sometimes you
have to take care of him more, and you have to pay more attention to some matters. Men usually show
a different side when they are outside. Don’t bother too much about it.”
Ophelia glanced at Mrs. Miriam strangely, and said suspiciously, “Mrs. Miriam, what do you want to
say?”
Mrs. Miriam thought for a while, but after all, she kindly reminded, “Young Madam, don’t blame me for
talking too much. I also heard from Mrs. Chambers that Miss Fletcher was hospitalized. I am afraid
your thoughts would run wild if Young Master was not home often.”
Ophelia’s expression remained unchanged, and she calmly asked, “Do you know Cora too?”
“Young Madam, I really treat you as my own daughter, so I didn’t intend to hide it from you. I met Miss
Fletcher when I was working in the Chambers family. Young Master and Cora were also in a
relationship, but they broke off five years ago. Now, the Young Master loves you. Don’t think too much.
I can tell that he cares about you a lot.”
Ophelia smiled and said, “Mrs. Miriam, I have known about the existence of Miss Fletcher for a long
time. Zachariah is an outstanding man, and it is normal to be surrounded by all sorts of women. I will
not misunderstand him. As long as the woman standing next to him is me. Mrs. Miriam, don’t you think
so?”
Mrs. Miriam knowingly smiled.
“Young Madam, it’s great that you think so. I was afraid that you will be suspicious and be estranged
from the Young Master.”
Ophelia shook her head.
Mrs. Miriam calmed down and started to finish the follow-up work for breakfast.
Mrs. Miriam finished preparing breakfast and said, “Young Madam, you should go and call the Young
Master to get up. It’s almost eight o’clock. The Young Master will go to work in a while.”
Ophelia thought for a while, then went upstairs.
When she entered the bedroom, she broke out into laughter when she saw the scene on the bed.
Zachariah was holding onto the half-human pillow tightly in his arms as if it was her, and he was even
lovingly whispering her name.
It was rare to see Zachariah’s childish side, and Ophelia was reluctant to wake him up.
Ophelia walked to the bedside and looked at him quietly for a while. When Zachariah opened his eyes,
she retracted her gaze in a panic.
Zachariah was a little confused, and when he saw Ophelia standing by the bed, the corners of his
mouth curled up and said, “Come here, let me hug you.”
Ophelia walked over obediently, Zachariah placed her in his arms, kissed her hair, and his low voice
was full of charm, “When did you get up?”
