Mrs. Fletcher stared at Mrs. Chambers savagely, as if she was skinning her.
Mr. Fletcher was a little helpless, “Helena, you liked Cora before, and you used to desire that she can
be your daughter-in-law.”
Mrs. Chambers sighed, “Bradwen, you don’t blame me for be so ruthless. I like Cora, but Zachariah
has married and he is going to be a father. We cannot force my son to abandon his wife and child. So
we cannot accept Cora to be my daughter-in-law. You are also well-educated, and you shouldn’t have
said that.”
Mrs. Fletcher banged on the table, “Helena, you don’t play a good human role here. Now, Zachariah
has to marry Cora, otherwise, I will mess you up. I am so sick of your false kindness, and you tell me
now whether you agree Zachariah marries Cora or not.”
Hearing, Mrs. Chambers was so furious that she laughed.
She never met such an unreasonable woman.
She turned to Mr. Fletcher, “Bradwen, you think so, too?”
With a pause, he said, “Helena, we have been good friends for so many years, so I open my heart
here. Zachariah had dated with Cora when he got married, and Cora was almost dead for him. I am not
in favor on her behavior, but she is my only daughter. I cannot see her grievance without doing
anything.”
Mrs. Chambers figured it out, and the Fletchers came and forced her son to marry their daughter.
She never thought the both families will be put in hot water because of their younger generation. It’s
clear. If they didn’t make a compromise, the both families will go broken up.
Mr. Chambers tapped her back, comforting, “Bradwen, I watched Cora grow up, and I like her. I am
glad that she can be my daughter-in-law before Zachariah got married. However, we cannot intervene
in their relationship. We should listen to them whether to marry each other or not.”
Mrs. Fletcher snorted, “Steffan, Cora is in the ICU because of your son. She definitely would like to
marry Zachariah.”
“So and Zachariah?”
The Fletchers paused.
Mr. Chambers laughed calmly, “Bradwen, how about handling this when Cora is well enough. We can
have a meeting and find a solution.”
Mr. Fletcher paused.
Mrs. Fletcher said, “Steffan, you mean that you don’t want Zachariah marry Cora, even for the good
relationship of the both families?”
Mr. Chambers was calm, “It’s not only Zachariah’s fault for this affair. I also blame him for his
irresponsibility. When Cora leaves the hospital, we can have a meeting to handle this.”
With arms crossed, Mrs. Fletcher got cold eyes.
“Steffan, I tell you now, Zachariah has to marry Cora, otherwise, it’s not necessary to have a talk.”
The chambers were all a little mad.
“We are friends, and we don’t have to make us all awkward here.” Mr. Chambers said, with pretending
calm.
“Steffan, just because we have been friends for so many years, so I make it clear. My daughter is
excellent and she has many suitors, but she loves Zachariah. I have to help her to pursue what she
wants as her mother. I make two options here. The first is that Zachariah marries Cora, and we both
families will be friends all the time, and the second is that we stand oppositely, and we are no longer
friends.”
The Chambers’ face darkened.
It’s awkward.
Mr. Fletcher pulled Mrs. Fletcher, applying her to be calm.
However, she got rid of his hand directly.
Glancing at the Fletchers, Mrs. Chambers said in a gentle voice, but in a firm and serious tone,
“Bradwen, there is only one daughter-in-law in the Chambers family and she is called Ophelia. We will
make compensation for Cora, but she will never become my daughter-in-law.”
With a bad look on her face, Mrs. Fletcher was furious.
“Helena, are you regarding Cora as a beggar?”
Mrs. Chambers frowned, saying nothing.
Mrs. Fletcher stood up suddenly, “Now that, we can finish talking now.”
Mr. Fletcher pulled her and took her seated, saying calmly, “Helena, we calm down. We cannot handle
this at the expense of our relationship, right?”
Mrs. Chambers still said, “Everything is OK to me but Zachariah marries Cora.”
Mrs. Fletcher banged on the table again, “So nothing to discuss!” Speaking, she turned to Mr. Fletcher,
“Bradwen Fletcher, let’s go, or you would like to be given a cold shoulder.”
